Focus in the Age of Distraction | Nir Eyal - 774
Raise your hand if you're somewhere between a little distracted from time to time, to downright all over the place with scattergun-like focus... Me too, me too. And in 2024 when the world is tugging at our attention and splitting it to shorter and shorter intervals, is it any wonder?
Well, Nir Eyal is the GOAT (greatest of all time) when it comes to defining, debunking and destroying distraction. Today we dive deep into the definitions and our understanding of what distraction is (and what it is not) and how to overcome and harness that sought after 'traction' in our lives.
I LOVE what Nir brings to the table on a topic that I (and likely many of you) struggle with on a regular basis.

Embracing Well-Intentioned Selfishness at 40 | Mark LeBusque - 773
Being thoughtful, productive, and constantly striving for excellence is admirable, but at what cost? The problem arises when our natural tendency to develop habits and routines morphs into a pattern of always putting everyone and everything else first. In doing so, we often sideline ourselves, our most crucial ally. While 'selfishness' rarely receives applause, a certain kind of well-intentioned selfishness is not just a refreshing approach for maintaining high performance and happiness, it's absolutely essential. Hell, I'm still grappling with this balance at 40... How about you?
In our chat, LeBusque and I dig into this idea. We also delve into building confidence, maintaining integrity, and learning to accept that 'you belong in that room (so #%$@ off imposter syndrome). If, like me, you've been chained to the grindstone, letting comparisons, corrode your confidence, and you're ready for a reality interrogation, then step into our office. This conversation is for you!

Piss Funny & Healing | Rachel Berger - 772
Rachel Berger is one of Australia's leading comedians, and being the daughter of holocaust survivors, she has an acute awareness of trauma, both in a physical sense and a mental sense, and therefore a knack for turning even the most serious topics into opportunities for a good laugh.
As we discuss the nuances of comedy, Rachel delves into the heart of what makes something truly funny and ponders the question 'do we really need to avoid taboo topics for fear of offending these days?' According to Rachel, it's all about the intention behind the words. From challenging topics like mental health to the everyday absurdities of life, she demonstrates how humor can be a powerful tool for connection and healing.
The episode isn't just about laughs, though. It’s a deep dive into the transformative power of humor, especially for those who have faced trauma or difficult experiences. Rachel talks about her workshops where she empowers individuals, including first responders and others, to use stand-up comedy as a way to reclaim their stories and find strength in their voices.

Unscathed Beauty: Empowerment After Abuse | Kelly Humphries - 771
In this episode, Kelly Humphries shares her powerful and deeply personal journey. Opening up about her experiences as a survivor of child sexual abuse, she reflects on the challenges she faced and overcame.The unfortunate reality is that in Australia, almost 30% of people experience sexual abuse by the age of 18. Our conversation delves into the complexities of building friendships and maintaining relationships while grappling with past trauma. Kelly also discusses her former career in the Queensland police service, highlighting the impact of her work on her mental health and her eventual transition into advocacy and support for other abuse survivors. The episode touches on important topics such as creating safe spaces for conversation, understanding the nuances of trauma response, and the importance of self-compassion and healing.Kelly's story is a testament to resilience and the transformative power of speaking one's truth. I chime in with some of my insights and experiences and aim to ask Kelly questions that can empower survivors, allies, and parents not to feel like they need to grapple with these experiences swamped in shame, silence, or isolation.

Tools Of Titans & Backscratchers | Craig Harper - 770
Today's chat with Harps was a perfect blend of humor and insight, potentially topping my list of favorite conversations with him. After we enjoyed some light-hearted banter about his lavender keep-cup and my tendency to relate to food much like a frantic Golden Retriever, the conversation took an intriguing turn. I'd gone full grown-up for this ep and proudly put in a solid three minutes of prep, armed with thought-provoking questions inspired by 'Tools of Titans' by Tim Ferriss - a must-read, I might add, for those who haven't yet!
While I'm keeping Harps's answers under wraps, I can share that the questions led us down a path of resourceful tips, practical advice, and some meaningful life lessons. More than that, they paved the way for Harps to offer deeply honest reflections into the world of Harps as he's known it.

Changing The World, Raising Kids & Making Friends at 40 | Cat Mahon - 769
Recently, I had the pleasure of connecting with Cat Mahon in an unexpected way. Our Facebook paths crossed just prior to my first motorcycle track training day – a nerve-wracking experience for me. But there was Cat, a fellow enthusiast who I threw the invitation out to come along with me and she grabbed it with both hands. Just like that we were like kids in a sandpit, instantly besties. It got me thinking – why does making friends seem so much more complicated as we grow older? I remember giving up biking 11 years ago, feeling isolated without any rider friends, never considering the simple solution of nabbing myself some new shared interest friends.
Our conversation, initially about the challenges of adult friendships, naturally flowed into deeper territories of Cat's life. I learned about her journey through parenthood, and then something more somber. Cat had been a witness to a tragic, fatal incident – a coward punch attack that left an indelible mark on her. This experience catalysed her involvement with the Pat Cronin Foundation, a testament to how such moments can redefine our paths.
New friends are great, get out there and keep making them!

Tiffanee rocks!
I was a recent guest on Tiffanee’s show. I’ve been on a handful of podcasts now, but what stood out about the host, Tiffanee was her authenticity and empathy, her ability to make it feel like talking to an old friend. Her ideas are thought-provoking and produce emotions I was quite honestly not expecting. Thank you for the appearance, it was truly a pleasure to speak with you!
