The value of people like Ben Hosking and Tim Alexander (Episode 61) is that they help one to understand why your capacity to assert and your confidence to stand up for what is right is an essential contribution to a world of peace and equity. Furthermore, you can't help but notice hnotice that in people like Ben and Tim, they exhibit such a strong, balanced persona. They instinctively know what is important, and what is trivial. They simply don't sweat the 'small stuff'. This of course means they are less distracted giving them more time, more space to choose joy in their life. It has been such a pleasure to not only understand the value of this quality, but to see it in action. As both Ben and Tim suggest ... it may well be your ability to deliver 'tough love' that actually determines how effective you are in spreading your own 'goodness' and value to others. You will hear this message loud and clear in this Episode with the extraordinary Ben Hosking.
Ben Hosking is an 11-year veteran with the Northern Territory Police. To hear his story of one of his first 'call outs' to address a domestic violence incident in Tennant Creek is both enlightening and hilarious given that he 'tased' himself not the perpetrator. It is the way he tells the story, that will so entertain you. However, let not his humorous description of this one encounter hide the fact that you are meeting an extraordinary talent and highly skilled human. Ben Hosking is an expert dealing with High-Risk Domestic Crime and Counter Terrorism. He is accomplished in Dignitary Protection having provided safe environments and passage for Manny Pacquaio during his 'Battle of Brisbane' boxing bout with Jeff Horn, and for HRH Prince Harry and Prince William during their visits to Australia.
He has frequently attracted extraordinary assignments offering close personal protection for Ultra High Net Worth individuals and their families. His story of protecting such a family as they played on the beach of a Pacific Island on one of their holiday ventures is delightful. As 'Chip' points out, Ben gives us insights into the lives of the 'rich and famous' and helps us realize that there is little value for ourselves or for them when we choose to idolise.
Such a different brilliant episode.
