The You Project Craig Harper

I'm obsessed with becoming a better writer (both creative and academic) and this conversation was a cheeky chance for me to tap into the mind of, not only a brilliant writer but also, a brilliant teacher of writing. Lucky me. Creating connection, building rapport, telling stories and sharing information through the medium of writing is indeed an art, so I was totally excited to be part of this conversation. Professor Shellie Richards is an award-winning author (The November Molecule), and an award-winning Academic who spends her days at Vanderbilt University teaching authors of the future, writing grants, and editing scientific manuscripts. She is also the Director of Undergraduate Studies for the Communication of Science & Technology and also serves as the pDirector of the Technical Writing Collective. As a research editor, she has edited more than 200 scientific manuscripts and documents, 120 grant applications and two textbooks. Enjoy.

Apart from that, he's done f**k all and he's a dumb-arse. Enjoy.

Sometimes you meet someone and quickly feel a connection and a familiarity that's inexplicable but real, nonetheless. It was like that (for me) with Dr. Rob Bell. Rob is a rock star in the areas of Athletic Performance, Human Potential and more specifically, Mental Toughness. We covered lots of ground in this one, I loved him and you will too. Enjoy.

At school, David Gillespie was an academic standout, while I was more of an academic stand-outside-the-principals-office, kind-of student. Not even joking. This was a fun chat where we talked about the significant differences between our teenage reality (in the 70's and 80's) and the reality of teenagers today. We chatted about the myriad of challenges, hurdles, and variables that us old b*stards didn't have to navigate in our day, as well as exploring the ‘emerging addictions' that are wreaking havoc on (some of) our younger generation.

Well, this was fun. Dr. Sherry and her energy almost make me look unenthusiastic and shy! We had a great time and her ability to communicate the 'science of the brain' in an easy-to-understand manner, is gold. Having said that, she does talk quickly and has a (beautiful) accent, so you might need to lean in and listen carefully at times. Enjoy. **Dr. Shohreh Majd is an inspiring keynote speaker, globally recognised Neuroscientist, University Associate Professor, lecturer, policy and research manager, editor-in-chief, and writer.

It's been a while since I assumed the Exercise Scientist role but today was the day. Tiff and I unpack some of the most common (and easily rectified) mistakes that people make in the gym (or any training environment, for that matter). We keep it simple, broadly relevant and jargon-free. If you're training consistently but not getting the results you're after, take a listen.
Enjoy.
