Christian.

Welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

There's something amazing happening right, just us listening.

And I hope I'm speaking for everyone who's also listening right now.

To hearing these people come on and talk about, it isn't so much what they do, it's the joy they have at doing it.

It's the passion.

Yeah, it's the passion.

It's what brings us alive when you're on your way to work and you all have a humday Wednesday sometimes. But there's still like this little light inside of you that's always there that it never fully goes out no matter how you feel and what's going on in your other life is that you still know why you do it and what it gives you as well. And just reading all the emails that are coming in, which I'll get to tomorrow.

These are people just being asked, do you love your job?

I think it's also it's that they feel part of something that's more than themselves.

You listen to Claire talk about why she goes to work and there's old people there and the join.

Straight away when we said, here, have $1,000 right now.

And she goes, I'll give it to them those uh over 19 year olds who she's hosting a lunch for today she's part

of something which is more than herself i think we lack that in today's world there's all this

sort of individualism i think hearing all the stories yesterday and today that's what it is

is that actually we want to part of something that's more than ourselves. That's what makes us feel happier in whatever work

we do. Neil's on the line. Good morning, Neil. You love your job as well, man. Good morning. Yeah,

good morning, Christian. How are you? I'm good, Neil. So what do you do? What do you love so much?

I teach wilderness first aid, and it's a job where we get into remote environments, First

Nation environments over in the west and up north and so forth and we give them the opportunity

to learn skills of how to potentially save a life when the ambulance is anywhere up to eight,

nine, ten hours away.
