  1. The psychological reason you stay broke

    The psychological reason you stay broke

    Your external wealth will never outgrow your internal self-worth. This week, we sit down with human behaviour and performance expert Michael Johnson to unpack the psychology of success, failure, and self-sabotage. In this episode, we break down: The psychological reason you stay broke (and why your spending habits are a mask). The "$20-a-week" mindset and the psychology of lottery winners. Why you only reach the level of success you are prepared to lose at. The formula for rewiring your financial reality: Clarity × Standards + Environment = Success. If you are constantly hitting a glass ceiling in your business or personal life, this conversation exposes the blind spots keeping you stuck.

    Reunited with the Stranger Who Saved My Life, Police Trauma & Rebuilding

    Five years ago, Heath was at rock bottom. Trapped in a dark spiral after a devastating separation, a complete stranger knocked on his door and pulled him from the edge. That stranger was Matt Newlands. In this emotional five-year reunion, we uncover the story behind that night. Heath discovers that the man who saved him was already a survivor of his own war. After a decade as a police officer, Matt faced severe PTSD, an arrest that cost him his badge, and a fight to stay alive. Matt gives Heath and Luke an uncompromising look into the culture of burying trauma in the police force, the day his career ended in a watch house, and how he engineered his own rebuild to create Frontline Mental Health.

    The Dark Side of Divorce: Why Hurt People Hurt Others (recovered from Hurt People Hurt)

    Most divorced men mask their trauma with ego, money, and gym progress. This extended clip from our previously removed Hurt People Hurt episode exposes the toxic cycle of unhealed relationships and the reality of life after a breakup. CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains discussions regarding mental health and thoughts of self-harm. Please see resources below. Owning your part in a failure is easy to say but difficult to do. Extracted from the original removed episode, Heath strips back the ego to discuss the "villain" phase most men go through but never admit to. We dive into the reality of using physical progress, money, and "relationship hopping" to mask deep-seated insecurities. Heath shares the moment he realised he was no longer the victim, but a contributor to the damage. This is a conversation about the "Great Dad" trap and the hard truth that unhealed people will always continue the cycle of pain.
