    #45 with Bec - How to build a healthier lifestyle without (too much) sacrifice

    #45 with Bec - How to build a healthier lifestyle without (too much) sacrifice

    Bec Hardgrave is a breath of fresh air... she makes healthy living fun and I LOVE THAT! I've always struggled to stay consistent with dieting, healthy eating, and habit tracking, but, after speaking with Bec and seeing what she posts on TikTok and Instagram, I'm realising that strict dieting isn't necessarily the only way to a healthier lifestyle.

    This podcast episode was all about improving the 80% (hard work and healthier living) without sacrificing the 20% (pleasure foods and fun). I had such a great time chatting with Bec up in Brisbane and this episode has turned out better than I ever could have imagined! I just know you'll all learn as much as I did and walk away with the same amazing impression of Bec, eager to learn more!

    #44 with Brooke & Jake - Risk, Marriage, and DIY Renovations

    Brooke and Jake are a dream couple. They met by chance, circumstances meant they never should have worked, the spark was too strong, they fell in love, they got married, they started working together full-time on their own terms... What a story!

    These are two incredibly inspiring people who live every day aligned with their true selves. Brooke and Jake love DIY home renovations, thrifting, social media content creation, travel and planning for the future. And it was so refreshing to be able to hear all about their experiences along the crazy journey that has been the last few years! It all just goes to show, the best things often come from the least suspecting situations...

    #43 with Zach and Stellah - When life doesn't go to plan...

    #43 with Zach and Stellah - When life doesn't go to plan...

    Zach Biddulph and Stellah Littlemore are engaged, they've built a social enterprise, they've renovated a Mercedes van, they've done their deckhand course, and now they're heading overseas on the adventure of a lifetime! To many, this sequence of events would seem like a pivot, and I guess it is, but after talking with these two incredible humans, it becomes clear that the life they desire simply will never be linear.

    Zach and Stell are true lovers of life. They love hard, they hurt deeply, they strive for excellence and settle for nothing. With each challenge thrown at them, another solution is found. These two are a beacon of light in so many ways and I can't wait for you to experience what I got to experience with them behind the mics!

    Oh yeah, a quick disclaimer... this episode is full of HILARIOUSLY inappropriate stories!

    #42 with James - Find politics boring? This'll change your mind...

    #42 with James - Find politics boring? This'll change your mind...

    I knew nothing about politics before today's conversation. I didn't understand how our political system functioned, I didn't understand why my vote mattered, I didn't even understand how my concerns could be raised among local council. These are all things that I believe are vital to the successful progression of the beautiful democracy we call home - Australia. 

    Sit down with myself and Cooper Chapman, a good mate of mine who is doing incredible work in the mental health field, as we discuss politics with James Griffin, the liberal member for Manly and the NSW Minister for Environment and Heritage. The reason why I think this episode is SO refreshing is because James is able to answer our questions in a way that feels like a normal conversation with a mate, not a conversation with a politician. 

    This episode is educational at heart. It was recorded so we could all learn a thing or two about politics in Australia from people who aren't boring (if I do say so myself)...

    What are you waiting for? Dive in!

    #41 with Alex - How your mindset creates your reality

    #41 with Alex - How your mindset creates your reality

    The Post-School Podcast is back for 2023! And in typical Uncle Nathan fashion, we're kicking things off with a BANG!

    Alex Hayes is a lover of life, a dreamer, a go-getter, a change-maker, and a friend. Since I started this journey, Alex has been at the forefront of my dream guest list, and finally, I'm able to share his story with all of you!

    Alex blew up on social media during his high-school years and has converted that run of virality into a complete life of fulfilment. Dreaming, levelling up, and chasing new experiences is the way I like to sum Alex up, and my god does that fit the mission of this podcast! You'll walk away from this chat with an in-depth insight into how Alex thinks, how he approaches challenges, why he pushes himself constantly, and how you too can create a life of fun, love, and achievement on a level you never thought possible.

Mini podcast

Absolutely loved it. I really liked the questions that were asked and answered and how it wasn’t a long podcast, I didn’t get bored or distracted through the episodes. I felt like it was really easy to listen too and I learnt so much. Loved how u involved the audience to start taking action by telling us what to do and how to start that helped me a lot!

Painfully cringe

When you wake up on your 25th birthday and your brain has become fully grown, you are going to have some painfully cringey regrets over this. Maybe I shouldn’t be so critical of the idealism and ignorance of youth, but in this day and of intersectional discussion of race and gender, it’s hard to forgive this “work hard” “pull yourself up by the bootstraps” white northern beaches take. Good luck and all the best.

My go to poddy

Far out just finished listening to your mini series poddys with matt and my word that man just seems like and abundant source of knowledge.

Nathan makes it’s super easy to understand for a variety of young people from all levels of financial backgrounds, without it seeming like a chore or overwhelming to understand.

Highly recommend!
