The Dom Harvey Podcast Dom Harvey

LYDIA O'DONNELL:
I love running. But Lydia loooooooves running. And she is very fast too (not that she likes to share her times, PB’s or achievements). 
This is most definitely one for the running nerds…especially women. 
But for anyone else who gives this a listen- you are about to be introduced to a cool person who I am lucky to call a mate. 
Lydia is the CEO and Co-Founder of Femmi, a community that educates, connects and guides women in running. We talk about Femmi in depth here and even discuss how she ambushed DOAC Steven Bartlett about becoming an investor.
She is also the Head Run Coach at Nike Pacific. And she has been a Nike sponsored runner for 15 years. 
This is part of the Lydia O’Donnell story.

I can’t speak highly enough about their protein powders.
If you think protein shakes are just for gym junkies, think again. Most of us don’t get enough protein, and a shake with a scoop of protein powder is the best way to fix that. 
It’s also great if your goal is to manage your weight- it fills you up without heaps of dead calories.
Check them out. I love the coconut and banana…but all the Radix flavors kick ass.

This is a podcast conversation with Calen Morris, a 501 deportee and patched member of one of New Zealand’s most notorious motorcycle clubs.
Warning: This podcast discusses drug use, suicide, violence, self-harm and other sensitive topics. Viewer or listener discretion is advised.
If you need help, a full list of resources is available below.
An offer I extend to all my guests is the option to edit out anything they are not comfortable with before the podcast is released. This is to create a space where they feel totally unguarded and willing to go into subjects they may otherwise avoid. Today’s guest exercised that right and, as I do with all my guests, I respect their wishes. So, if some questions or areas you hoped would be addressed are missing, that may be way.
My goal with all these discussions is to try and get a better understanding of a person and their choices through non-judgmental long form conversation.
Thanks for understanding and listening.

Michaela Sokolich-Beaton is the captain of the Northern Mystics netball team and a proud member of the Silver Ferns
But Michaela's story is less about netball and more about resilience, determination and red-hot passion. 
Her journey is a masterclass in perseverance as she candidly shares the mental and emotional trials of battling setback after setback and the fierce determination it takes to return to elite sport.
I loved this one and I hope you guys do too.

Dion Nash is a former NZ cricket captain and founder of the skincare brand Triumph and Disaster. And just an all round good guy.
In this conversation we explore the highs and lows of small business ownership, the emotional toll of financial struggles, and the rewarding experience of building a brand.
Dion shares heartfelt stories about family, personal growth, and the lasting impact of meaningful relationships. Oh, and there is plenty of cricket nostalgia in the mix too. Dion joked that this may be his last ever podcast. If that is true, it was an honor and a privilege.
