Leadership Conversations From the Heart is a special podcast series within The Upside Podcast, created as part of the Men's Health Project 2026. Through authentic conversations with leaders from across Australia, this series explores the human side of leadership — beyond titles, success and achievement. Together, we unpack vulnerability, resilience, mental health, wellbeing, purpose and what it truly means to lead from the heart. In this episode, we're joined by Dr Richard Pace, respected Australian business leader, philanthropist, and author of Keeping Pace. Known for building a remarkable career through resilience, discipline and long-term thinking, Richard shares the lessons, challenges and defining moments that have shaped his journey both in business and in life. Together, we explore leadership, adversity, success, stress, personal growth and the realities that often exist behind professional achievement. We also discuss men's mental health, why so many men struggle to open up, and the importance of creating spaces where honest conversations can happen before people reach crisis point. Beyond business, Richard reflects on the role of purpose, philanthropy and giving back, including his support of the Happiness Co Foundation's Happy to Help program, which provides early intervention support for those doing it tough. This conversation is a powerful reminder that success is about more than what we build or achieve — it's about the lives we impact, the people we support, and the legacy we leave behind.

Inside the Attack: Phil's Journey with Autoimmune Disease, Identity and Men's Health

As part of The Happiness Co Foundation's Men's Health Project 2026, this episode explores the often-overlooked reality of living with autoimmune disease and chronic illness as a man. Joined by Phil, we unpack the physical, emotional and mental health challenges that can come with navigating symptoms, seeking answers, receiving a diagnosis and adapting to a new reality. Together, we discuss identity, resilience, relationships and the invisible battles many men face behind closed doors. This honest conversation also highlights why men are often reluctant to seek help early, the dangers of ignoring ongoing symptoms, and the importance of creating spaces where health conversations happen before reaching crisis point. A powerful reminder that looking after your health isn't weakness — it's one of the strongest things you can do. *Content Warning: This episode includes conversations about mental health, personal struggles, adversity, and emotional wellbeing. Some topics may be challenging for listeners. Please take care while listening and pause if you need to. If this conversation brings up anything for you, consider reaching out to someone you trust or seeking support from a qualified professional.

Leadership Conversations From the Heart: Emeritus Professor Gary Martin CEO of AimWA

Leadership Conversations From the Heart is a special podcast series within The Upside Podcast, created as part of the Men's Health Project 2026. Through authentic conversations with leaders from across Australia, this series explores the human side of leadership — beyond titles, success and achievement. Together, we unpack vulnerability, resilience, mental health, wellbeing, purpose and what it truly means to lead from the heart. In this episode, we're joined by Professor Gary Martin, Chief Executive Officer of the Australian Institute of Management WA, Emeritus Professor, and one of Australia's most respected voices on leadership, workplace culture and social trends. Drawing on decades of experience across academia, executive leadership and public commentary, Gary shares his perspective on authentic leadership, workplace culture, psychological safety and the courage required to have honest conversations. Together, we explore the difference between creating comfortable workplaces and creating respectful workplaces, why accountability and psychological safety can coexist, and how strong cultures are built through trust, openness and truth-telling rather than avoidance. We also discuss the unseen pressures leaders carry, the importance of vulnerability, and why silence should never be mistaken for alignment. This conversation is a powerful reminder that leadership isn't about being liked or avoiding difficult conversations — it's about creating environments where people feel respected enough to speak honestly, challenged enough to grow, and supported enough to thrive.
