GROWTH Schema

#77 Begin with the End: Lessons from Istanbul, Life, and Slowing Down with Elaine Dutton.

Endeavour

In this reflective and deeply human episode of the GROWTH Schema podcast, I sit down with Elaine Dutton to explore what it really means to live a meaningful, intentional life. Through stories of travel, family, and personal awakening, we unpack the quiet power of slowing down, appreciating beauty, and recognising the profound lessons hidden in everyday moments. From a father–son journey through the heart of Istanbul and the architectural mastery of Sinan’s mosques, to the practice of living your bucket list now—not "one day"—Elaine brings forward insights on presence, perspective, and purpose. We also reflect on how experiences shape us more than possessions, what changes when we begin seeing our parents beyond their roles, and why leading others always begins with learning to lead ourselves. This episode invites you to rethink what truly matters and to realign with the life you want to live.
