When we're young we have an amazing positive outlook about how great life is going to be

but somewhere along the line we forget to dream and end up settling. Join up dots features

amazing people who refuse to give up and chose to go after their dreams.

This is your blueprint for greatness. So here's your host, live from the back of his

garden in the UK, David Ralph.

Yes, hello there.

Yes, I'm still live.

Yes, I'm still at the back of the garden and I'm still in the UK.

This is David Ralph, this is

join up dots and we have got another amazing show for you. And the shows are

getting, I think stronger in many ways, I think the show's really bedding down and going where basically I

I wanted it to go right at the very beginning but it takes a while to really find your path and I think that's what we're going to touch on today with today's guest.

And he is a man joining us on the show who knows a thing or two about having a laugh and unusually

believes that laughter is a great way to develop leadership in most environments.

But does this have to be an unusual approach or should showing a sense of humour in the workplace

be the perfect way to reduce stress, inspire others and of course to show that you're in control.

Well for over 15 years our guest has toured America as he excelled in one of the hardest

entrepreneurial routes you can take that of the stand-up comic, honing his craft, where the ability

to learn from a guest's complete silence at the beginning and take the nights when everything

goes wrong helps you find your natural self and ultimately brings laughter

to any audience but why did he do this well he knew he had to overcome his fear of

public speaking after meeting a gentleman at a Toastmasters meeting he knew it was down to him to beat this fear.
