Play from 1:31[1:31]" Well right now I'm based in Lima Peru in South America. That is -- the current tour was based where I was born. I'm honest I -- Australian citizen. But the reason I came back what's because. The -- very small apartment with a beautiful view of the ocean. And when -- serve because there's beautiful surfing down in. In in in the opposite he coasting in -- in -- very kind of there are always -- of dolphins -- to pull you know who in front of my ankle or -- apartment so. They return can perhaps for a chance they go in tune with them."

Play from 2:14[2:14]" Swimming with -- dolphin so its such a cool thing I know that people are lucky enough to occasionally do that even some of the water parks down south but. I've only seen dolphins up close a few times and I'm fascinated by them I think. Well you you're gonna talk about this when he but I think that they are they express themselves so beautifully there. They're very emotional animals and a we'll talk about the imminent and a bit but the story of the dolphin. Is. Something that -- it comes from a personal experience she had. Sort of visiting with a dolphin while you're along the -- you're a big siege -- a big fan of the oceans I guess and don't tell me where you met this very special dolphin."

Play from 2:52[2:52]" GSM at least some very crucial -- in India you know beach a surfing beach called gene shall. The used to like fifteen miles north at least on the capital Portugal. And two basically you know world -- and you know there are free in the coming -- What they want you know assertion by myself and turn he'd appear to want the and which are for the next CDC state knee area. In the week the same week he came -- linked. And don't ask me why but I the heck I had. -- rock bottom in my life a year before. Because. Ecuador very lucrative -- Just because. I was. I've felt that I wasn't. Working to leave anymore really need to work and that's how my experience and assert her arm muscles surfer. I love the simple things United and I was you know -- losing a little things. In any in it's as time passed. So wearing that this sculpting don't ask me why I was seeing -- right. In in this beautiful beach. And have that kind he opened my laptop via a ninety. And I had from its maker that's harsh to eat and I just can't start right human rights in writing -- a chemical engineer going to courier. -- never thought about writing anything. Anyway so some from the US he was a very spiritual X community quotes. That's fine and lead by putting in in words what I felt inside of me. I a year are these are freed myself -- from the golden peach. I had put myself in. Place thinking. That the money would -- Who happiness to my next."

Play from 4:47[4:47]" I'm talking with Sergio band baron he's the author of the Dolphin's story of the dreamer. And is so cool how art is sometimes inspired. By eight but what's happening inside us and what's happening in nature and when they all come together. Art comes up and becomes a message in a metaphor and this -- story the story of Daniel dolphin which -- affected the dolphins communicate very very well with themselves and other creatures because. And we do know scientifically that they do have a marvelous sense of communication don't think."

Play from 5:19[5:19]" Yes they do would turn in. Not to sit before. One don't think so we're still two people these if you have the chance to Sweden -- stalled since. Two or at least once you're right turn because once honesty -- you've probably heard this before. What do you see for the first time. A toll free I to a right. Very close. Change your life forever. He there's something. Magical and it and mean assuming with we're consultant for a long time. The -- or not the most both the experience and you know you're you're you're which creatures that have no. -- The prejudices. So so basically they do what the would be are supposed to do you know -- freely. The there have been utilized they were supposed to do."

Play from 6:16[6:16]" In the context told the story Sergio and it's such as well as such a great great. -- you've got this one dolphin who could live very comfortably within the pod. And swim around and eat fish and do it dolphins do an even surf to a certain extent but. He has desired to find more in life and he does break -- a bit of a rebel. And you use the -- other dolphins. The older ones is is comparisons and it's just like people that we sometimes find ourselves in a box were afraid to take that step."

Play from 6:49[6:49]" Yeah an end and that's what I always tried 222. -- with people. If -- it's simple. Common human being they need. One lead to the decision off of just. Crossing what are called the crystal also fear. And just gold for latrines and and in me in and it you know. -- are you fulfilled more some of my dreams anyone can do it it's just pure fear you know would sometimes when you can just say eighteen which. The fears. We feel of a vote leaving the safety tool. Are basically in in her mind. The IBI always at -- to people I ask yourself this question. What's the worst that can happen. You know if if -- to work do we who you want it to work luckily your green. That doesn't mean Dick. June he and Hillary were. Lost you. At least you tried it and that's something I think there when you get older that's something you will always remember. That. I don't you you were able to fulfill your dreams whatever your greens are. Or if not a piece you -- your best shot in federal not doing anything in -- and you grieve quietly knife."

Play from 8:11[8:11]" The -- from the story of a dreamer by Sergio -- we're talking about this. This move from. The typical nine to five very successful. Entrepreneur and worker to a man of more independence of freedom of Spirit. And sort of self discovery of of our guest and author but what's interesting is the the in the story the siege. Kind of talks to Daniel the dolphin would these wonderful. Yet just elegant bits of two of the intelligence about life and and learning and spirituality. And it's a great metaphor because if you stop and listen. And really listen and shut the noise out oftentimes we can hear wisdom in our lives is national."

Play from 8:56[8:56]" It's through Jordan would you have -- you can you can mentioned a word which I think it's critical. Stop. You know we're police are running for one. Two income the other you know. We we knew we never stop running. And I I really nice at least I can only -- buy it for myself. That I sometimes most prefer to see okay let's leave everything besides. Just I just you don't see that. In the on this kind of beautiful beach. Just be careful for what some time. Or when I'm seemingly wouldn't opposite with the dolphins or surfing. And it's such a peace of mind the one and I feel in BC DU for going to vote all everything that's who society. In between you were UP should be. Listen to the voice of your heart which in the book they quoted that the voice of the --"

Play from 9:55[9:55]" Indeed indeed. One of the things that -- there's so much we did delve into -- but here's one area that I like to talk the about. And I found this to be. The most interesting. Beyond the dreaming of this dolphin and the of the idea that we can live greater lives if we just let ourselves go and that is. Two things one the shark he comes across a shark in his travels and any time people think of sharks they think that their nasty evil and only. Orally OT chip. Good trend Jonathan Byrd who has a notion I'm -- of and a filmmaker. And he loves to talk about the shark -- I have another friend who's a listener to this program Larry from Virginia. Who swims with the sharks on occasion and the point is the shark feels misunderstood. And is not the way a lot of us feel that in many people are. Quick to judge not to charge shouldn't be respected but they're not all killers and the other four point -- to address both. Is when Daniel adults and actually meets up with nannies warned that man is the most -- and creature in. Can cause the most destruction but there's a good a surprise. And we don't give anything away but can you comment on misconceptions we have about others."

Play from 11:05[11:05]" He has two things first that we need to go -- yes our -- also type along with sharks. You know again. It's it can monitor off off off with the states in which wouldn't. I remember when the movie the first movie offered -- came out he knew what long ago. You know we have surfers we're although there are words no sharks in the places were I used to surf. Where to -- surfing kind. You know were still skirt because we saw the movie. So again it's in your mind. But once had the experience of diving with dole -- short even at night. The a wonderful creatures. And most of old off the attack that you know that make the highlights in the newspapers or TV. For instance. It's seats seat to its its you have -- much that are -- he killed in a car crash and you know being beat him by chart they do it because. The the these -- That -- you know that are in the order our seals. Are we turner natural. You know ruled. Foot -- So normally you wouldn't be at -- the attack in it is winning the million. Because you know try to see what you are -- didn't do you realize you're not. Well they're looking for and he Norway the only pro -- is I would say with the white -- because if it's such a strong creature. That. If you try to well."

Play from 12:42[12:42]" it but in terms of the story what what I gleaned from that Sergio was. You know a lot of people. Have a Scully face and I mean exterior. And done may be deep down that -- they get they get a little gleaned being mean but maybe deep down -- They breezed boom they resent the fact that people don't ever come up to them and want to sail well not that I want to do though the shark and intentioned but just saying it's it's a way we judge others."

Play from 13:07[13:07]" We shouldn't I -- I am a person wants you earned. Not a Church fathers determine currencies from the -- I I cannot -- anyone because. I don't know what their past experiences have been. Maybe. Ross life. But I would suggest to boot to do most people that you know try to put really strong enough -- and you know. Kind of BB you know put -- A wall. In in order not to be hurt. To keep potentially life because is that so many beautiful things happening and I kept. Uniforms. And and basically. Lisa and I if you want to leave in at the same time. Don't be afraid pull -- getting hurt because that's part of life. You don't -- imperative that just during the listen and and in going in you'd actually be a better person."

Play from 14:09[14:09]" Well what taking chances. And that's what our trend Daniel dolphin does. And and venturing out to find the great waves in the great crashed. He does encounter. Other characters and that's why I was alluding to the fact that he does finally meet up with. Was men are -- couple of men. And what we've fears sometimes often just that what we what we fear not necessarily the case that. -- could -- to us although it has I thought that was pretty stinger. Many people would get to that -- a book and assume all men has got to be evil and is going to ruinous for the dolphin but doesn't necessarily have to be that way."

Play from 14:47[14:47]" No not at all again if I start a fresh start to see the news on the TV or you know -- the newspapers. You see the -- Field with bad news because what that that -- them reaching. But I can assure you Jordan the -- for if we human being that has done something. Which Obama prove important puke can be grown or that's something bad there are millions of communion of human -- out there. Which are not known you know these. They don't appear in newspapers or TV. But they are doing wonderful things for the world. -- I think it's it's PM to two -- slide that. That that that makes a difference you know who would he be where or how we see the world because the world will be except the eat that you see you and I try to find the group in things. And not a bad because Indian world human beings will all make me -- current. That we have to try to forgive ourselves for about things we did. And try to be a better human. Being. Every -- and I think. Paragraphs you know."

Play from 16:00[16:00]" Was surgery you've been giving back with your Philanthropic. Efforts including then eat the ecology the oceans and I -- a lot of the proceeds. That you raised with sales of these this and other books. Going right back into protecting this beautiful environment me asking all your troubles though what people are saying about this and he must have a lot of folks who write to written to you and maybe even come up to you at events and say. You know what impact the dolphin has had on their allies want to share just don't want to those with -- some wondered what it's meant to people."

Play from 16:28[16:28]" Oh yes definitely. -- during the -- it's yes you know people write me back you know after. I would you've been very lucky to our earnings in the sense that basically the difference between Myanmar leaders -- that I just taking in paper where a lot of people think in in in Lee we just click. The only difference. But admitted that yes. -- it would told his royal. -- he basically came to relax. And I just want to quote do a small anecdote I received an email from an Italian only eat cheese -- tribunals. And she's read all my books. That the told books that we can. And we were always seen -- contact in one theory -- to her look. Where you do you. Like so much you know the things they are putting in. In paper and she -- me because she read books for children age four to 100. And it -- test XXP what are what to him without realizing it. -- we keep. The children under twelve concern Arafat's and we don't -- that perspective that kids have provoked -- you know that. Everything's possible to the group -- For -- both about paying and in any interest smile will be happy in. -- a wonderful life and the turn to for -- province he's the he duties they do something to well. Indian we will bounce back in -- home in return and I couldn't in -- A wonderful journey -- off off of this magical eventual collect."

Play from 18:14[18:14]" Well as you as you point out through the eyes and ears of the sea and Daniel in the book the dolphin. You say on page 55 for instance if you find the Spirit of the youngster inside -- you with your memories and his dreams. -- tool locked together trying to find a way through this adventure called life and your heart will never become tired a world that can ever. Give up in and there's so much fascination out there if you just open up your rhymes sometimes or to swim beyond that -- swim beyond upon."

Play from 18:45[18:45]" That's right Jordan you know. Because I mean we -- grew up a production -- we have to. Who two who stopped. Dreaming. We -- it will lure children some of -- got trapped. In in this system and in and we regret that the -- just took a small quote I just came out from the parking lot to you know because I have to go to by attempting to to a sharp. And you know with all the Russia we're hearing intimate. He stopped just for a second. In you can hear -- the birds singing and trees. So beautiful screwed you know justice. Running around. Trying going somewhere you know and I think those small scenes of all -- Is what makes the difference you know or leaving that -- really happy --"
