A viral clip from Chris' show, in which he discussed what he wants in a future partner, exploded online and was the cause for much controversy between a number of figures in the podcast and media landscape. Labelled by some online voices as toxic masculinity, financially abusive or as contributing to the manosphere, Chris doubled down on his take in what became a back and forth of opinions online.

Chris and I sat down to have an honest conversation in which we both agree and disagree with each other on a number of matters.

At Paris 2024, Saya's story of Olympic triumph captured the nation as she was embraced by her brother Kai who just 4 years prior had a devastating BMX accident while racing at a world cup event. Kai was left with a traumatic brain injury that threatened his life and left the Sakikabara family clinging onto hope.

The incident inspired Saya to pursue the olympic dream for the both of them at Tokyo in 2021 where adversity reared its ugly head and left her with a troubling concussion of her own. Self doubt, fear and uncertainty riddled Saya and nearly saw her leave the sport forever, but she fought back.

Saya's new book 'Just Go' is an incredible story of overcoming adversity and facing fear head on. She joined me on the podcast for a conversation about it all.

Whilst her obsessive nature that she describes as both her greatest strength and weakness, made a compelling argument for Kate's inevitable success in life, her early devotion to the world of aerospace engineering and a job as the only female working in a technical capacity at Williams Racing in the highly competitive world of Formula 1 are a far cry from the world which now occupies her attention.

Diagnosed at 22 years of age, Drew thought his life as he knew it was over. An early sign of hope & personal agency encouraged him to change his perspective & take the challenging diagnosis in his stride.

Now a popular online educator, Drew's social audience has grown as people flock to his platform for science backed & proven methods to improve their health & wellness. You may also recognise Drew from appearances on Simon Hill & Rich Roll's podcast's.

His calling to serve & willingness to sacrifice his life on the front line, filled him with pride until our country turned their back on him.

Branding Heston a war criminal, the ABC released doctored footage and accused Heston of committing a war crime. Proving he wasn’t even in the country at the time of the incident & that the footage had been manipulated, Heston was not only cleared of the accusations but he also won a landmark defamation case in the Federal Court against the ABC. Throughout this process, the politicians who had formerly called on Heston for his expertise did not answer his calls for assistance & the Australian Defence Force did not reach out to even check in on him once. Heston was abandoned by the people he served whilst in the fight of his life.

However, now on the other side of a more tumultuous time, I was privileged to share this incredible conversation with him.

There are a few things I admire about Heston. Of course, his service to our great country is one of them, but at the core of this incredible man is one of the most powerful stories & unique personalities I have had on the show. Here is what to expect for our chat:

- Crushing all stereo types, Heston now openly speaks about his sexuality as a gay man - one of the very few who have walked his path in life to do so.

- He shares some absolutely hilarious stories in the conversation that had me in stitches. The more wholesome message though is the importance of embracing who you truly are to live a fulfilled life & reconnect with your purpose in life.

- We break down & discuss the mindset & character required to be a high performer in the special forces.

- Heston intimately shares the words he wrote in death notes to family & friends before heading off on his most dangerous deployments. He believes that this is one of the most powerful exercises you can do to find inner peace & channel high performance.

- We speak about leadership & why it seems to be lacking in Australian politics.

- All of this & so much more in one of my all time favourite episodes of the show.

This episode was honest, reflective & full of the insights I am learning about life & myself.

The questions:

1. What do you think is the ultimate purpose of life, and how do you define a meaningful existence?

2. If you could instantly acquire the ability to understand one thing about the universe, what would it be and why?

3. How much control do you think we have over our fate, and how much is determined by circumstances or chance?

4. Do you believe happiness is a choice, or is it something that comes from external factors beyond our control?

5. If you could live any life you wanted, but had to give up all memories of your past, would you do it? Why or why not?

6. What do you think is the most important quality for fostering deep, lasting relationships?

7. In your opinion, what is the role of suffering in life—does it serve a purpose, or is it simply a consequence of being human?

8. How do you define success, and do you think society’s definition of success is aligned with your own values?

9. If you could communicate one idea or message to the entire world, what would it be and why?

10. When you look back on your life in 20 years, what do you hope you will have learned about yourself?

11. Do you believe we are defined more by our choices or by our circumstances, and why?

12. What does freedom mean to you, and how do you feel it should be balanced with responsibility?

13. If you could see the world through someone else’s eyes, whose perspective would you choose, and what would you hope to learn from it?

14. Do you think we have a moral duty to leave the world better than we found it, and if so, how should we go about it?

15. How do you think your experiences with failure have shaped who you are today, and what role does failure play in personal growth?

16. What do you think it means to "live authentically," and how do you know when you're doing it?

17. If you could change one thing about the way society operates, what would it be and why?

18. In moments of deep reflection, what are the most important things you feel you've learned about love?

19. How do you distinguish between what you want and what you truly need, and why is it so difficult for many people to do the same?

20. If you could spend a day with your future self, what would you ask, and how do you think your future self would respond?

Since then, Tim has transformed his life and career in ways few could have predicted. He became the most featured man on the cover of Men's Health, built a fitness empire, launched a rosé brand (Elle Wines), and has begun making waves in the entertainment world with a three-year stint on the hit Australian soap Neighbours, the start of an acting career he hopes to take to the big screen in the exciting roles ahead of him.

On the surface, it might seem like Tim’s life has been a smooth ride—good looks, a cover model physique, and a shot at fame on one of the country's biggest reality TV shows. But behind the success lies a story of hard work, personal growth, and overcoming challenges.

In this candid conversation, Tim opens up about the self-development he did to attract true love, the challenges of being branded 'The Bachelor,' and how he’s continuously worked to build confidence in himself—especially in his acting career.

Frank's new podcast 'Chew the Fat' is centred around interviewing men & women in the business space to share knowledge but not before he cooks them a meal in the kitchen. He hopes that the value shared in the podcast will build an audience to market his newest charity project to the masses. This project is in form of a cook book he is titling 'Eat with Purpose', of which all proceeds will go towards supporting children's cancer charities. It's an opportunity to do some good in the world & it is the perfect fusion between his love for business & cooking.

In this incredibly candid conversation I asked Frank:

• Whether he anticipated the success he experienced in business or if he is surprised by it?
• How he navigated the contrast between earning a modest living & selling for 9 figures?
• What are the perks of financial freedom & what challenges still exist regardless of your bank balance?
• What he is learning from his experience as a podcast host?
• Amongst a host of insights he has to share from his incredible life experience.

Isn't it odd that society tends to criticise people in power or influence for changing their beliefs/stance even when it seems to be for the better?

A healthy element of growing as a human is to use or experience & learnings to understand ourselves & the world a little better than we did yesterday. Therefore, it only makes sense that with growth some of our beliefs are questioned, challenged & changed.

We shared a few examples of how this has been true in our own lives & it made for an interesting & as always, enjoyable conversation amongst 3 mates all navigating life in their late 20's & early 30's.

I invited the fellas on the poddy to discuss Australia's housing & affordability crisis, how to start your investing journey & the keys to building wealth & planning your future while enjoying your avo toast & oat latte's too.

As a 23 year old I fought my way into the property market at the end of 2019, sold high in the covid housing boom in 2021 & burnt through my piggy bank pursing my dreams & living my life. I don't regret it, in fact it taught me a lot about myself & afforded me an opportunity to invest time in creating the kind of life & opportunities I wanted for myself. Now as a 28 year old man who hopes to provide for my partner & future family, I am starting to think about our financial future but I don't want to stop enjoying life & having experiences, it is too precious & we only get 1 go at it.

So how does one achieve the best of both worlds? A balance of financial stability, wealth generation & a whole lot of livin in the process...

A former educator with his own hardships & childhood trauma, Tommy found himself searching for answers at the bottom of the bottle before a few of his closest people held him accountable & encouraged him to turn his life around.

On the journey of discovering himself & working through his own trauma, Tommy found his feet & in the process developed a purpose to help young Aussies find their feet too.

Not one to buy into the bullshit, Tommy doesn't believe that true impact is a product of labelling yourself a 'bloke whisperer' or 'expert' but rather by leading with vulnerability, taking ownership for your mistakes & connecting through real conversation & mate-ship. His workshops in schools & presence online has been backed by some of the countries best athletes & biggest names in media, all of whom recognise what I seen in Tommy when i was first connected with his work: a true champion with a heart of gold, who has had an immense impact on over 50,000 young Australian's.

This yarn was packed with stories of life changing realisations, moments of true inspiration & discussion as to the challenges young men are facing in 2024.

Having fought legends like Amir Khan, it might come as a surprise to hear that Dib's toughest opponent was found outside of the ring with far more than world titles at stake. Billy's diagnosis with cancer in 2017 set the scene for his toughest fight to date & the 6 months his doctor gave him to live meant he would be fighting for his life.

His story is one of great inspiration, surrendering to faith, identifying a purpose to not only survive but thrive & developing a champion mindset.

I spent the morning having a long form conversation with 2 of my best mates. We are certainly not experts, we don’t have all the answers but we wanted to start a conversation & create dialogue to develop our understanding, to be accountable for what needs to change & to lead the way for other men to do the same. We understand that the we can only try to empathise with women, but we can’t speak to their personal experiences as young men & because of that, we invite anyone listening to the episode or watching along to contribute to the conversation with feedback or their own perspective. Cultural change requires a collective effort.

In this conversation, we discuss:

- What does it mean to be a good man?

- How we can take responsibility to create safer environments for women to live without looking over their shoulder or feeling uncomfortable in environments like the workplace, school & bars/clubs?

- Redefining sexual abuse & giving clarity to what society has previously defined as a ‘grey area’.

- Sharing the female perspectives of women we know & the work advocates like Chanel Contos are doing to help women call out in-appropriate behaviour & help men understand it.

- The problematic narratives in media that creat further division instead of unity for positive change.

& much more.

The boys feel so blessed to have the incredible friendship they do & it’s no coincidence that our depth of conversation has created such strength in our bond.

This week they delve into the topic of 'life by design'. All 3 of the lads were set homework to identify the pillars that lay the foundation for the kind of life they each want to live & explain how those pillars differentiate from the values in which they live by.

As a man on a mission to be the best version of myself, I am inspired by Jarrod's relentless work ethic & his dedication to the pursuit of self betterment in all area's of his life.

We spoke in depth about this way of living, how going 'alone' will never take you as far as going together with a group of like minded individuals & why its his life mission to squeeze the juice out of everything he commits himself too.

As a young man mistakes are inevitable & James’ often made for good headlines on the back page & a tirade of criticism. Both of which hugely influenced his decision to step outside of Australia & explore career opportunities in Europe for a number of years. 

Now back on home soil, it’s clear that James has made peace with himself & ultimately has nothing to prove, yet a lot to show for the journey he has been on. His 16 year career has been one of many twists & turns. He has battled substance & alcohol addiction, faced his demons & come out the other side with a legendary career that is still well & truly alive at the Queensland Reds.

Nas, a former addict now 11 years sober is using the vehicles of storytelling & barbering to humanise those who have found themselves on the streets in the wake hardship & addiction.

When I first met Nas, I could feel that he was a special human being before we exchanged a single word. In this incredibly deep & vulnerable conversation we discussed the foundational belief that led him down the path of addiction, the healing power of purpose & reconnecting with ourselves to live fruitful lives.

Her career progression has been astonishing, she made her way into the world of journalism & media, as a Nightline producer before working her way up the ranks to be a prominent part of channel 9's 60 Minutes, co-anchor alongside Karl Stefanovic on Today Show & now the host of A Current Affair. A career that she attributes to a relentless work ethic & the occasional bit of luck- which is quite humble of her I must say.

We discussed her early life living in regional NSW where her passion for journalism was born, the development of her career path & the reasons behind the decisions made along the way, her passion for speaking on mental health & domestic violence & of course, her wonderful family.

I couldn't speak more highly of Ally. Just an incredibly kind & warm hearted person who gave me nothing but respect & her undivided focus. It made for one hell of a bloody great yarn that I am certain you will all enjoy.

Jack's comedic talent shines in its own right but is widely known through his roles as the resident right hand man of GOLD 103.4FM's Christian O'Connell & the loveable often witty producer that acts as the sometimes understated yet vital waist-coast of the 3 piece suit that is the Hamish & Andy Podcast.

In this episode we went beyond the laughter for a highly vulnerable & emotional conversation in which he spoke about the challenging days of early parenthood as he grappled with heavy postnatal depression, he shared some hilarious stories from his time working alongside Hamish & Andy & we ventured into a deeper conversation around the vehicle of creativity & how he established his career in radio & podcasting.

I feel very privileged to have connected with Jack & to call him a mate. I know this conversation will be widely appreciated & helpful to so many, so please share it with your mates & spread the love.

Keeshia Pettit is the wonderful executive producer of some of Australia's best podcasts (Life Uncut, Two Doting Dads & Not An Overnight Success).

Her story is incredibly inspiring & a testament to the wise words 'when one door closes, a window opens', turning 2 moments that at the time were deemed failures or misfortunes into life changing opportunities.

We had an incredibly honest & heartfelt yarn about some of the life lessons that have afforded her incredible perspective, the wonderful work she is doing & the back story behind the success she is more widely known for.

That realisation was the catalyst for a major life change when he, his wife & daughter set sail on the adventure of a life time, one he reports to be quite fulfilling.

In our conversation we yarn about some of the lessons he learnt reporting on both tragic & thought provoking stories, the truth about life on a catamaran, what he has learnt about himself along the way & how this isn't just a pipe dream but a very real option for those looking to escape the rat race & how his family made it happen.

In her adolescent years, Amy trained & competed as an elite diver. It was the early foundation of a relationship with perfectionism that eventually proved to be detrimental to her health, leading her down the path of an eating disorder that she courageously & vulnerably opens up about in the episode.

From the age of 13, acting was on the radar. After leaving school Amy studied musical theatre before landing her first role on TV in Netflix's 'Mako Mermaids'. The show lasted 4 seasons before she left Australia to pursue a career in Hollywood. The 6 years spent in LA introduced her to improv comedy which has no doubt played a major role in her career development & her recent work as one of the consistent faces on the most recent season of Australian TV classic 'Thank God You're Here'.

She is also a producer, writer & passionate advocate for a few worthy causes that are close to her heart.

Outside of her career, Amy's life has had its fair share of adversity, twists & turns, which made for an honest & vulnerable conversation.

Losing his limbs, particularly his arms has afforded Tom one of his most recognisable features: his pirate hooks. Recalling a conversation with Mark 'Chopper' Read, Tom described a desire to be remembered for more than his physical disability, to live a life interesting enough to write a memoir about. Not only has he lived a life rich in story but his story now finds its place on any good book shelf, by the title of 'Hook, Line & Sinner'.

In this conversation we don't only follow some of Tom's story but we discuss ideas such as:

- Why Tom embraces dark humour.

- Narrowly surviving the meningococcal c-strain & why he had to have all 4 of his limbs amputated.

- Playing the role of the 'author' & how this can afford you a meaningful life.

- The life changing difference between resilience & 'anti-fragility'.

- Reverse engineering your problems to create simple solutions.

Since leaving the Navy, he completed a masters degree as a Schwarzman Scholar (the oldest person to do so at that time), broke a record for the fastest mile in an 85 pound bomb-suit & donned that same suit to complete a half marathon all to raise funds for veterans, he now works as chief of staff for fintech company GoodLeap LLC.

My first meeting with Daniel was in March 2023. We shared the stage at a 3 day speaking summit in Sydney, he was the most effective speaker I had ever watched live. His story held weight & his experiences were inspiring. His life philosophy sang to the tune of 'face your fears, face your enemy (your own weakness), seek adversity, believe in yourself, hear the call to action: your life is today'. A philosophy that inspired much of our conversation, alongside the tale of his remarkable story & the ups & downs of a life that has thrust Dan into the face of danger & deep introspection on a shockingly regular basis.

Andrew was at the height of his drug dealing business, bringing in 5 figures a week. His beginnings in the Sydney underworld were as he describes, not morally challenging despite the knowledge he was breaking the law. Unlike heroin & ice, Andrew found his own moral comfort in the knowing that psychedelics weren't responsible for ruining their users lives. But somewhere along the line his own moral compass lost its way & his addictions to cocaine & gambling took over sending him on a spiral towards that fateful police raid that likely saved his life.

After his arrest in 2021, Andrew was sentenced to a maximum security prison. Within the walls of his cell he found sobriety & introspection, with conditional bail, he was released to live with his parents & comedy became his saviour.

In conversation with the award winning comic & soon to be published author, we reflected on his former life & the valuable lessons that has afforded him. We spoke of stand up comedy & what it gives him, all the whilst Andrew took every opportunity available to roast me & have me laughing uncontrollably for stretches of the episode. His story is one of changing your stars & the freedom that living a morally informed life gives your soul. I loved my time in conversation with Andrew & I am certain you will too.

In 2019 Gary resigned from the force after being stood down over allegations of misconduct. He stands by his decision to record conversations with a person of interest in the William Tyrell case, having made a commitment to William's family that he would do whatever he could to bring them the closure they deserve. Gary was later criminally charged but has no regrets.

Taking his passion for crime into life as a reporter & storyteller, Gary is the voice behind the popular true crime podcast 'I Catch killers' & 2 book's (I Catch Killers & Badness). His experience on the other side of crime has opened his eyes to a world in which not everything looks black & white anymore, it's deeper than that. He shares stories on meeting & befriending some of Australia's most notorious cons, what they have taught him about life & the new perspective he has gained as to what fuels crime in the first place.

After sitting down with Gary for an incredibly honest & vulnerable conversation, I can honestly say that he is a great human being. A man who dedicated much of his life at great personal cost to bring some of our countries most evil individuals to justice, who now, through his career as a storyteller is using the power of empathy to understand what drives someone to a life of crime & how we can correct their course before it's too late.

JK talks of his fear for speaking out at that troubling time. The fear that his career would be taken from him, that he would be labelled insane. It all came to a head in August, 1991, when on tour with the AB's in Argentina, he wanted to jump out of a 10-story hotel window. The kind words of a team mate saved JK's life that night.

Fast forward several years and JK is now widely recognised as one of ‘the faces’ of depression and anxiety in New Zealand. In 2012, he was knighted for his services to mental health, an honour he strives to live up to every day. He’s the founder of several mental wellbeing organisations including the Sir John Kirwan Foundation, Mitey, and most recently, Groov, a workplace mental wellbeing platform. He’s also the author of All Blacks Don’t Cry: A Story of Hope and Stand By Me: Helping Your Teen Through Tough Times. He is also an incredibly talented keynote speaker, coach & commentator.

Within little time, he found himself chasing physiology classes to feed his curiosity. Early on, he identified 3 key indicators of performance that remain an integral part of his success to this day.

In his final year of university, Will founded Whoop. Now 11 years on, Whoop is a 3.6 Billion dollar business, worn by the biggest athletes across the world: Patrick Mahomes, Lebron James & Rory Mcllroy to name just a few. Not only is Whoop worn by the superstars we see on TV but rather it has become an assessable tool for the everyday human, with an interest in optimising sleep, day to day energy or even as Will explains for himself 'optimising life as a CEO'.

In this conversation, we discussed:

- How curiosity created Whoop.

- Why self-belief is essential when travelling the road-less-ordinary.

- Why you have to detach your identity from the success of your business/brand.

- Key tools & practises for optimising your health & wellbeing.- The importance of sleep hygiene.- Will's advice to find fulfilment & success in life.

Formerly working within the branding & advertising industry, Josh had reached a milestone in his corporate career by the young age of 26, appointed as a manager of the company, working with well known brands from across the world. Despite the early 'success' he was having, he couldn't help but feel as though there was a missing piece of the puzzle as he looked down the barrel of his future within the corporate world.

A conversation with a respected mentor prompted Josh to ask the question 'how do I find my dream job?' to which his mentors answer would change the trajectory of Josh's life & career. The answer was simply a question asked of Josh, 'what does your ideal day look like?'. That question spurred on the creation of a brand that gave Josh the freedom of schedule to do what he loves & set his life up around it. An internal decision to build something that not only lights a fire in his belly, but fuels a life by design.

In this episode we discuss:

- Identifying what is truly important to us in the process of designing your ideal day.

- Strategising your exit & entrance into the next chapter of your life.

- The purpose behind 'Porter James Sport'.

- The power of love & surrounding yourself with quality people.

- Learning to say no to things that don't serve us & respecting your own time.

- The brand identity of 'Porter James Sport'.

- Josh's message to the world.

At a NSW schoolboys training session, Alex experienced a traumatic life-changing injury, breaking his neck & leaving him as doctor's would diagnose, 'a permanent quadriplegic'.

Losing all movement from the neck down, Alex found himself in a hospital bed able to move only his eye balls. 5 days after life saving surgery with his family seated at the foot of his hospital bed, Alex couldn't help but hear his family's defeated tone of voice as they spoke about their new harsh reality. In a bid to lift their spirit, Alex spoke his first words 5 days after the accident. 5 words that would change the trajectory of his life forever, define the foundation of his mindset & inspire millions of Australian's in the process of his recovery. The words: 'If I fight, you fight' left Alex's mouth & with those words, a fire was lit & it still burns bright today.

This is only the start of Alex Noble's story. Tune into this beautiful conversation, as Alex's inspirational words move me & prove that nothing is impossible with the following topics of our conversation:

- The moments & emotions surrounding Alex's life changing accident.

- The power of mindset.

- Developing the resilience to survive & thrive in the face of extreme adversity.

- Crafting new purpose & pivoting in life.

- Achieving a state of peace through an attitude of gratitude for our greatest hardship.

- Maximise success & growth in life.

- The beauty of being alive & why Alex's breathes a sigh of relief when he wakes in the morning.

In the name of vulnerability, Brad (The Captain) has come together with 2 of his best mates Tye (Phoony) & Joey The Zoolander) for a series of episodes to tackle some of life’s big questions, topics & the tough stuff that we so often choose to battle in solitude.

The aim is to inspire you to connect with your mates in vulnerability & hold space for each other on the foundation of unconditional love & support, whilst encouraging positive mental health.

The boys feel so blessed to have the incredible friendship they do & it’s no coincidence that our depth of conversation has created such strength in our bond.

This week they delve into the topic of CORE VALUES. To set the tone of the episode Brad shared a written piece on 'what it means to be a good man', eluding to the point that 'good men show up in the world according to their values, even or maybe more importantly, when the world isn't working in their favour'. As always, the lads were set a piece of homework to bring to the episode, & this week, their task was to define their top 5 core values & an action that aligned with all of those values to ensure they are showing up in the world that way.

It was an honest & vulnerable conversation in which the 3 mates got real with the values that have challenged them & the importance of those in which they identified as their top 5. Enjoy another vulnerable episode full of valuable & actionable insight with the 3 mates.

This week they delve into the topic of IDENTITY. The lads spent a weekend away working through some questions & taking some time to get reflective on their lives up until now & putting real focus on the question of 'who am I?' Each of them found that at 1 point in their journey, they had a crisis moment that encouraged them to question their identity & the kind of men they want to be. In this episode, they identified the point of crisis & discussed the actions they have taken to form the identity that allows them to show up in the world authentically.

She has been featured in Harper’s Bazaar, The Express and The Mirror. Lotte is represented by literary agent Megan Staunton at Bergstrom Studio. She is currently working on her first book.

My first introduction to Lotte was through a beautifully written & heartfelt message I received to be a guest on her podcast. We flipped the script in this conversation & discussed Lotte's experience of love & life after loss, grief & acceptance.

Whilst this is an incredibly emotional story, Lotte closed our conversation with a message of hope for those who like her, are living with the pain of grief.

Growing up with a family that loved food & enjoyed a healthy dose of Jamie Oliver on the evening tele, Dan had already self published his own cookbook without any professional training as a chef before his debut on the hit tv series. Whilst on the show, he realised he would have a short window to capitalise on the newfound attention, so without hesitation, his second cookbook was ready to hit shelves as soon as his time on the show came to an end. Moving with the power of social media & youtube, Dan dived head first into the content game & cooking has been his vehicle to have a positive impact on millions across the world.

The now 33 year old has been living in NYC for several years, having created a number of businesses, an epic podcast & a following that has put him in the path of Hollywood's biggest celebrities as 'The Healthy Chef' we can't get enough of. I had the pleasure of meeting Dan in NYC last year & it comes as no surprise he is the superstar that he is his.

We spoke about:

- Starting with the end in mind.

- The adversity you are bound to face along the road to success.

- The power of authenticity & why you should be a pioneer not a follower.

- The value of self improvement.

- & much more, in this compelling conversation.

Her expertise in the field of neuroscience has been used to predict human/consumer behaviour for some of the biggest companies around the world. Katharina founded 'Deep Sphere', a neuroscience based assessment that provides a blueprint of human nature and behaviour. It ​was developed during 2 decades of research and a systematic review of the latest neuroscience papers on how our genes, neurotransmitters, hormones, emotions and narratives influence who we are. Followed by empirical testing with a sample of more than half a million people in total to date. Finally distilled down to the most predictive dimensions and associated assessment. The result is the most diagnostic, predictive yet accessible assessment of who we are at the deepest level.

Katharina & I connected at 'Human Kind'. A 3 day summit at Luna Park in Sydney in which we were both keynote speakers amongst a host of the best speakers, thought leaders & entertainers from around the world. After my time on stage, I completed the deep sphere assessment before Kat & her co host Tim discussed the results & how that links to my story & human experience on this podcast episode for you all to hear. I was fascinated by the accuracy of the results & loved how this made sense of my journey, personality & behaviours.

Kat & her team were kind enough to give me their blessing to share the episode with you all & in more exciting news, we have booked a podcast to dive further into the neuroscience of self knowledge next month, stay tuned for that!

At just 22 years of age, Sam Tait left for a morning ride with mates. By the afternoon, he'd broken his T11 vertebrae in a motorcycle accident that rendered him a paraplegic from the waist down.

During this episode, Sam & I connected on the power of a quote that has defined his life since that harrowing accident on the 27th of April 2013. 'Sometimes when you're in a dark place, you think you've been buried but actually you've been planted'. It is that quote, that message that defines Sam's actions in the wake of the accident. He has chosen not to be a victim of his circumstances but rather to form new purpose & live life to the fullest.

We discuss:

- Allowing yourself to grieve.

- Acceptance of self & the power of embracing your authenticity.

- Forming new purpose in the wake of life altering events.

- Sam's Paralympic goals.

- The power of love.

- How to respect people with disabilities.

This was such a powerful conversation & whilst Sam & I have lived very different lives, we connected deeply on our thoughts & feelings towards our life purpose.

Traditionally masculinity has been associated with men & femininity with women. As society evolves, we see the presence of both energies on a spectrum in which masculine & feminine energy exist in their natural polarity but are accessed & embodied at varying levels relevant to your own human experience.

The lads discuss their own personal experience with both masculine & feminine energy, they share their own definitions of masculinity alongside the definitions provided by key women in their lives & also their thoughts on the insecurity rooted in 'toxic or 'undeveloped' masculinity.

Bill Goldsmith emerged from the Australian franchise of The Bachelorette with Ali Oetjen as season 4's villain. I admitted to Bill, that as a viewer of the show that year, that I didn't like him at all. In the years following the Bachelorette & his time on Bachelor In Paradise, Bill didn't like the man starring back at him in the mirror, in fact, he hated who he was. That is why, he changed & evolved, going back to a life he knew well before TV fame & stardom. A simpler life, congruent with the values he developed as a young man.   

Bill speaks of his childhood with a smile. Growing up in Victoria's Dandenong Ranges, as he describes: 'with a feminist hippie mother & no TV'.  A childhood surrounded by nature & real life interaction. A world so far from the attention & social validation that comes with reality TV & social media, it's fair to say that Bill was stepping into the unknown when he signed up for the Bachelorette adventure.  

We spoke about him losing control of his ego in the years that followed the show, re-connecting with his values & finding real meaning in the life he now leads. We dive into the effects of social media on society, modern culture's dopamine addiction & what really happens behind the scenes of a reality TV show.  

I love that Bill can own his mistakes & has chosen to grow in the wake of those realisations. We spent the morning running, sitting down for a coffee & recording this conversation & after it all I can honestly say the man I met was far from the villain I disliked on TV all those years ago, he is a good man with honest intentions.

The aim is to inspire you to connect with your mates in vulnerability & hold space for each other on the foundation of unconditional love & support, whilst encouraging positive mental health. 

The boys feel so blessed to have the incredible friendship they do & it’s no coincidence that our depth of conversation has created such strength in our bond. 

This week they wrote their own eulogies & discussed the topic of death. It got incredibly emotional, honest & it was liberating. In the acceptance of our inevitable deaths (hopefully to come in the distant future) we are often reminded of what we truly want to live for in the now. Todays episode was a celebration of that.

Zac O'neil is an ultra runner & mountaineering enthusiast. His passion for running first fuelled by a more vein pursuit to 'look good' in the wake of a break up. Zac describes feeling insecure about his body image for a large portion of his life. That deep seeded insecurity now weighing a little lighter on the mind as so many look to Zac as an inspiration for not what his body looks like, but rather what it is capable of. 

In the lead up to Zac's recent 240km ultra from the sandy shoreline of Eden in the South Coast to the top of Australia's largest peak, Mt Kosciuszko, he had to conquer both a 100km race in Alice Springs & a 160km race in the Central Coast to qualify for Australia's highly regraded 'Coast To Kosci'.

As they say, 'Rome wasn't built in a day', neither was Zac's feat in conquering the 240km race. It is the product of the past 5 years, building a body & mind resilient enough to tackle huge challenges. We discussed what the last 5 years have taught him about life & himself, in a very inspiring yet down to earth conversation.

It was an honour to have a man that I consider a mate, share a conversation on the poddy & celebrate the accolades he has worked incredible hard to achieve.

Lachlan Stuart is a men’s high performance coach. Working with 7+ figure clients to achieve business & life success through the structures of his business ‘the man that can project’.   

Though Lachie wasn’t always a leader. The former rugby player was once lost & in his own words spiralling out of control. His Achilles heel was the deep seated desire to fit in & it was fuelled by illicit substances, alcohol & violence.   

It’s fair to say that Lachie’s new found path of leadership was inspired by a former teammate who recognised a young man with potential & decided to lead Lachie towards a more prosperous path of self development & success.   

In this episode we discussed the reason so many humans are unhappy & lacking vision within their life. Breaking down the construct of time to arm you with the tools to control it & create a path of success in your own life. I have learnt so much from my time with Lachie & I know so many of you will take real wisdom from what he has to say!

Josh Kerr is one of the St George Illawarra Dragons forwards & an indigenous All-Stars representative.

When meeting Joshy, you are confronted by the mighty man-mountain's sheer size but after getting to know the man, it is no surprise that his larger than life personality & his compassionate heart are what he is known for amongst his family & friends.

Josh grew up an hour North-West of Brisbane in Narrangba. Sport was a huge part of his early identity & it is where his passions for rugby league & aussie rules were formed. With opportunities to pursue both sports, Josh eventually decided to walk the rugby league path, not without his fair share of hurdles along the way. Alongside the desire to make his family proud, his driving force was the determination to prove an early doubter wrong & prove he could be part of the 1-2% of players who make their NRL dream a reality.

A proud Aboriginal man from the Quandamooka Nation in Stradbroke Island, Joshy had his early struggles with culture. The criticism & racist jokes in the school yard created a drift with his culture, choosing to 'fit in' before realising that true belonging is found in celebration of our culture & self acceptance. Now loud & proud about his passion & pride to be an Aboriginal man, one of his great honours was to represent the Indigenous All-Stars.

Josh has an incredible heart & a desire to leave those he encounters feeling uplifted, it's the reason I connected so easily with him when we first met. His story is inspiring & it was my honour to share it on the show.
