SANTA!!!!! (And the gifts of ADHD)
“It’s okay to be positive, it’s okay to be joyous even at a time when that’s lacking.”
- Jim Manning (aka Santa)
Years ago, when I first started The Find Your Awesome Podcast, people asked me who my dream guest would be. I was stumped. I may have mentioned a few Olympians and thought leaders, but that’s because I never ever dreamed of recording an episode with Santa! Santa is my favorite. For me, he represents magic and love—and magic and love are everything. And Santa, A.K.A. Jim Manning did not disappoint. We had so much fun together talking about ADHD, Human Design and what it’s like to be Santa. Jim has been the official Santa Claus for the City of Boston’s Annual Tree Lighting for more than 10 years. He makes over 80 appearances as Santa every year and counts Coco-Cola, the Boston Red Sox and thousands of delighted children among his loyal clientele. This year, Jim is excited to offer virtual Santa visits. You can book him at https://www.santaasap.com/
This episode is suitable for all ages, but you might want to pop your earbuds in if you’re around young children.
