    What If Your dad didn't hurt you? Your 9-year-old brain did With Mitch Hunter

    Send a text THE TECHNICIAN PODCAST WHAT IF YOUR DAD DIDNT HURT YOU?  What if the thing you've been carrying your whole life..the wound, the unworthiness, the need to prove yourself .. was never actually about what happened to you... but about the story your child brain made up about what happened? This week I sat down with Mitch Hunter - physiotherapist turned meditation teacher, academic turned mystic, and one of the most grounded spiritual humans I've ever met.  Mitch has 30+ years of meditation practice, has trained in Buddhist monasteries and caves in India, worked in chronic pain at university level, and had a stabilised spiritual awakening in 2019 that completely redirected his life. This conversation went places I didn't expect. We talked about what meditation actually is (and why most people are doing it wrong), how your nervous system holds onto experiences your conscious mind has forgotten, and why the most powerful healing tool on the planet isn't a technique, it's your own awareness. Mitch shared the story of a childhood memory that surfaced during deep meditation.. his dad burning two sticks that meant the world to him as a 9-year-old ..and how seeing that moment through adult eyes dissolved decades of overachieving, people-pleasing, and proving his worth. No therapy. No framework. Just objective truth. We also went deep on my own journey — a past life experience during holotropic breathwork that unlocked a shame pattern I'd carried my entire life, and how one moment of being truly seen cracked it wide open. In this episode: — Why concentration comes before meditation and why most people skip the step that matters most  — The difference between data and drama, and how your brain weaponizes meaning against you  — How Mitch went from physiotherapy clinic to Buddhist monasteries to a 5,000-year-old temple ceremony with 2 million people  — What actually happens in the body during a spiritual awakening (and why Mitch lost 10kg in 3 weeks)  — The one question that changes everything: "What literally happened?"  — Why the people most triggered by your truth are the ones who need you most  — How living your truth isn't about chasing peak experiences  — it's about being fully present while you take your sausage dog for a pee This one's for the men who've done the work but still feel like something's missing underneath it all.

    She Lost 75 Pounds, Built a 6-Figure Business, Then Burned It All Down Again With Pippa Martin

    Send us a text She Had Everything on Paper... Here's Why She Walked Away | Pippa Martin Six years ago, Pippa Martin had it all: the house, the car, the degree, the relationship. She was 110kg, deeply unhappy, and living someone else's dream. Then she made a decision that changed everything. She quit her job, sold her house, and moved to the other side of the world with someone she'd known for just three months. She lost 75 pounds, built a multi-six-figure fitness business, and lived across Thailand, Vietnam, Spain, and the UK. But that was just her first reinvention. Recently, she walked away from that thriving business to pursue something even more aligned with her truth. In this conversation, we explore: → The moment she realized "success" was suffocating her → What it actually takes to burn your life down and start over → Why the 50/50 relationship myth is destroying partnerships → How to know when it's time to choose yourself → The real cost of following someone else's blueprint This isn't about chasing viral moments. This is about honoring the courage it takes to become who you actually are. If you've ever felt trapped in a life that looks perfect on paper, this episode is for you.

    From Housing Commission to 8 Figures: The Trauma That Built a Business Empire With Aj Williams

    Send us a text AJ Williams: From Housing Commission to 8-Figure Sauna Empire Guest: AJ Williams - Co-founder Revel Saunas, mental health advocate, former pro athlete The Story: Built 8-figure business in 18 months, but real breakthrough came from understanding how childhood trauma was sabotaging his success. Key Insights The Thursday Night Pattern: AJ still gets panic attacks every Thursday - the exact night his alcoholic stepfather came home violent. His nervous system never forgot the timing, 20+ years later. Scaling Trauma:$1-3M: Power through with control$3-10M: Must delegate (triggers abandonment fears)$10M+: Leadership requires healing survival patternsThe People-Pleasing Paradox: Fought abusive stepfather at 14, but struggles setting boundaries with employees. Childhood protectors become adult people-pleasers. The 1% Strategy: "If I help one CEO, that impacts hundreds of employees. If I help one NRL player become a better father, thousands of kids benefit." Business Lessons Hiring: "Dating before marriage" - contractors before full-time, plus DISC profiling prevents culture disasters. Accessibility Trap: Being too available undermines managers and burns you out. Boundaries improve relationships, not harm them. The Relatability Factor: Why traditional therapy failed him but breathwork/ice baths worked - relatability beats qualifications for real breakthrough. Quotables "I'm not afraid to fail. I've had nothing before - I'll figure it out again." "Success is a long, healthy life surrounded by people who love me and being a good father." "Your childhood is running your company whether you realize it or not." The Uncomfortable Truth 8-figure revenue didn't stop panic attacks. External success can't heal internal patterns - that requires different work. Connect: @iamaajwilliams | Revel Saunas | Breathwork retreat coming Gold Coast May Your trauma might be your superpower, but only if you're willing to transform it.
