In this episode, we interview, Chris Kennedy | Writer | Musician.
Chris, first love? Music!! I can’t play a lick, but my entire life has been a draw to all things musical. Stints at record stores as a teen and a radio, stage and television arts course at SAIT set me up for a Music Director role with a major radio station in Calgary [CHFM]. In radio, I also found an opportunity as a writer, which brought notoriety through awards including a runner-up placing for a coveted CLEO.
I moved to Vancouver to pursue a role with any major recording label and found my dream with Warner Brothers. Fourteen years working at building relationships with radio, television, and print media throughout BC.
Music downloading sucked the life out of an entire industry, and the life out of my dream job. Going back to school I channelled me skills into Public Relations and worked in diverse industries from television to banking. Still, something was missing — passion. That’s the gap where entrepreneurship got under my skin, however, it was a seminar that changed my life. Orlando, 2008, an intense 10-day marathon with Tony Robbins witnessing testimonies of many courageous women expressing suffering even they did not understand, the suffering of their feminine dispossessed by their own masculine.
I now seek many answers to a question presumed resolved at birth — what is feminine? Chris is writing a book, and host a podcast: The Virgin The Beauty & The Bitch and his purpose is to inspire the rejection of ingrained social prejudices that segregate people based on sex and gender. To also displace dogmas of intolerance within religions, politics, and media, with a spirit of mutual respect that is humane toward all human beings.
CHRISTOPHER: If I must be placed in a box make it the one labelled Servant-Leader. Put me in with those who engineer change for the good of all humanity through deeds inspired by the golden rule. My education comes from paying attention to life, my degree is in making change happen, and my profession is the pursuit of Yin and Yang — the harmony of opposites. My name is Christopher, I am a writer with an answer on the tip of my pen to a question few ever ask — what it feminine?
Be Inspired.
