The Giant Pause Podcast

The Dreamcoat: Burning Man. Camper Van & The Ultimate High.

Episode Summary

From the seed of an idea, deep in the Nevada desert, Nicola Sokell’s nomadic life reads like a campfire tale of life on the open road, exchanging dreams with strangers all over the globe. In this episode we do a deep dive into dreams, creativity, and generosity, all the while weaving through her own life journey. Currently in the middle of her own Giant Pause, Nicola’s new project is conversations on “New World, New Dreams” where she asks: "What are our dreams and how are they being refined and defined by the crisis in which we find ourselves? Can we use them to create a new world for ourselves?" And yes – where can you get the Ultimate High?

Episode Notes

Nicola Sokell is a Life & Soul Coach, Curator of Magical Experiences, DJ, Nomad and Founder of The Dreamcoat .

Since 2005 she has travelled with The Dreamcoat to festivals, fields, homes, streets, offices, picnics and parties all over the world, collecting people’s dreams. All kinds of dreams: daydreams, night dreams, aspirations, visions, fantasies and wishes. It works like this:

Each of it’s pockets has a dream inside.
Anyone can have a dream from a pocket.
But they must exchange it for one of their own.
So you give your dream...
...and you get a stranger’s dream.

The Dreamcoat is a celebration of the amazing collaboration we humans are involved in and she wants to invite as much participation in this as possible by offering:

• Creatively engaging workshops for groups, communities, companies, organisations and individuals, exploring how to live our dreams.
• Inspiring and engaging talks on dreams, the dreamcoat journey and it's discoveries.
• Interactive walkabout at events, public gatherings, festivals, conferences etc.
• A 'dreambooth' where dreamers can share their dreams in a welcoming space.

Nicola says, “The path of our dreams, if we choose to take it, is generally not very straight and for sure it's not always easy. But it's a very important one, it's our life's work, it's what connects us to our meaning and purpose.”
