This week Ben poses a question, "What does healthy, strong beautiful masculinity look like? As they dance round answering the question, the fellas realise that in today's society it is a hard question to answer due to all the nuances.



Also they explore the notion of toxic environment, as opposed toxic masculinity or feminity. Also the value of children having positive role models of each section of their life.

This week it is just Ben and Gines. Ben shares his journey on his recent long hike. It was a little bit more than he expected! Unexpected heat, a sore foot, new shoes, and not doing much walking all seemed to add up. 

The fellas this week chat about long hard things versus short hard things. There is so much value in what you can learn about yourself during such things. 

Also there is so much value voluntarily doing long hard things. 



Life is will give you markers, plenty of them, however, they do not mean much if you do not follow up.

This week we are joined by Steve Grace from the Nudge Group and Balance the Gring. Steve is the CEO and founder of The Nudge Group, which is anything and everything from raising money to creating PR, to creating buzz, to hiring, to launching into new countries, to creating stock plans, and pretty much anything to do with the start up phase. 



Balance the grind is a publication that articulates stories about how people live their lives and balance their work life with all other areas of their life. 

They talk about the different cultures within the start-up space, from Tech founders to Sales focused founders. They touch on the volume of start-up founders in Australia since covid has exploded. In Australia we are finding a lot more grassroots compared to overseas where we have more top-level start-ups.

The fellas start the year with chatted about staff and how they show up. They explore the notion of the current feedback culture. Which is you can not give feedback or criticise someone, without them taking offence or going to HR.

Why are schools teaching for regurgitating information, instead of teaching for life?
