Episode Description

Heads up- we experienced some technical difficulties on this episode which meant only the main camera was working (instead of the usual 3)

Fraser Grut is possibly one of those podcast guests that you are just hearing about now. I first met Fraser around 8 years ago and I’ve been following his progress since then.

Fraser is a content creator and storyteller who has spent the last 9 years of his life filming people and asking them one real simple question: what is your dream?

His goal is to film 10,000 dreams. So far, he has filmed 2000 from regular Kiwis as well as many massive international stars including Tony Hawke, Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis, Terry Crews, Piers Morgan, Elle Macpherson, Mark Cuban, Ronan Keating and even Elmo!

For a bit of perspective about the magnitude of this project- if he filmed one dream each day it would take 27 years to make it to 10,000.

In this chat we talk about Frasers “why” and get to learn a little bit about the man behind the ambitious project.

The importance of persistence.

The difference between dreams and goals.

And what he did to seriously piss off Rick Astley.

I hope you enjoy learning about Fraser Grut and his life quest to document 10,000 dreams
