Accelerated ageing is all too real for those with relentless professional demands and waning health and energy. Endless work hours and chronic stress can make you feel older than your years, impacting your vitality and overall sense of well-being. Instead of experiencing the vigour and sharpness you once had, you may feel prematurely aged and drained. This episode explores how to slow down biological ageing, using personalised health strategies and cutting-edge insights to help you take charge of your health, boost your performance, and restore your youthful energy.

Leadership skills do not come naturally to everyone. Developing them can be an ongoing journey of many years and many mistakes. And in the military arena where lives are at stake, leadership skills can make the difference between total success and disaster.



In today's episode we explore how aspiring leaders must navigate the delicate balance between authority and empathy, adapt to rapidly changing situations, and make critical decisions under stress. We also discuss the unique obstacles faced in cultivating effective communication and building trust within diverse teams, emphasising how these challenges in military leadership translate to high-pressure civilian contexts.



Philip Kornachuk, a decorated veteran with 22 years of service in the US Army's Special Operations Command, is renowned for his prowess in leadership and resilience. Honoured with a Silver Star for his time in Afghanistan, Philip transitioned from military exploits to empowering individuals and businesses through his coaching and workshops at StoneWater Training, where he specialises in high-performance leadership skills. Drawing on his military background, Philip leverages core values, disciplined routines, and self-mastery to foster mental toughness and adaptability, redefining modern leadership for professionals aiming for career excellence without the stress.



“[Effective leadership] starts with you, but it's not about you.” - Philip Kornachuk



In this episode you will learn:


The challenges faced when transitioning from a military career to civilian life and strategies to redefine your purpose and values.
How breath work and maintaining a daily routine play crucial roles in managing stress and staying grounded.
The importance of physical activity, journaling, and gratitude exercises for mental well-being and evening reflections for self-improvement.
The concept of the "comfort crisis" and why pursuing meaning, purpose, and authenticity is vital over seeking ease and comfort.
How to use intentional discomfort as a tool for personal growth, productivity, and mental resilience.
Leadership principles like providing purpose, self-leadership, and the discipline necessary to achieve personal and professional goals.

Feeling spiritually disconnected and struggling to cultivate inner resilience amidst life's stressors is a common challenge for many high achievers. Whether it's coping with the loss of a loved one, grappling with burnout, or striving to push through personal and professional boundaries, these experiences can often leave you feeling depleted and unmotivated. In this episode, we explore strategies to boost both personal and professional endurance. Learn how to develop inner strength, embrace your primal instincts, and foster a deep sense of connection and purpose.



Rebecca Rusch, a professional athlete who self-identifies as the "Queen of Perseverance'', is a seven-time world champion in multiple sport disciplines. She has carved out a storied career that hasn't just redefined endurance, but has established her as a legend in the athletic world. Rebecca's unrelenting pursuit of adventure and exploration is as profound as her best-selling book, "Rusch to Glory." A motivational keynote speaker and founder of the Be Good Foundation, her legacy is amplified by her world-famous 1,200-mile ride along the Ho Chi Minh Trail, which deepened her spiritual connection to her family and roots. Evolving from athlete to mentor and entrepreneur, she continues to inspire by developing the "athlete operating system," guiding individuals from all walks of life to adopt an athlete's mindset for success.



“Variety is the spice of life, but it is actually true for your brain and your motivation of doing different things.” - Rebecca Rusch

The concept of movement as a mind-expanding activity rather than mindless exertion, emphasising the brain-boosting benefits of physical exercise.
Rebecca's transition from being solely identified as an athlete to embracing roles as an entrepreneur, educator, and developer of the "athlete operating system".
