Following Your Inner Purpose with Film Producer Nic Askew
US Congressman Ted and the Experience of Being Seen
Nic Askew shares a story about filming an elderly man named Ted, who was later revealed to be a US Congressman, during a leadership institute event. By asking Ted to sit still with his eyes closed and requiring nothing from him, Askew facilitated a moment where the politician moved past his "stump speech" to a state of deep, trembling honesty. This event illustrates Askew's belief that true presence requires the absence of an agenda or the need to "fix" the subject.
