    EP 20: “There’s never a ‘right time’ to do anything so just start. If it doesn’t go to plan it’s all good…usually it’s pretty special.” Nedd Brockmann

    EP 20: “There’s never a ‘right time’ to do anything so just start. If it doesn’t go to plan it’s all good…usually it’s pretty special.” Nedd Brockmann

    He inspired the nation when he decided to run across the country and today, Nedd Brockmann inspired hosts Marlee Silva and Nicho Hynes as he joined them on the couch for this very special episode of When We Grow Up.

     

    There’s so much wisdom that comes out every time Nedd opens his mouth, he exemplifies what we want to achieve and share through WWGU and we couldn’t be more grateful for Nedd’s time!

     

    We know you’ll love this chat as much as we did.

     

    And pre-order Nedd’s book ‘Showing Up’ which will be available in October

     

    Thanks so much for listening!

    EP 18: “Part of me wanted to do really good for the both of them - and the criticism too” former NRL star, Rocket Rod Silva

    EP 18: “Part of me wanted to do really good for the both of them - and the criticism too” former NRL star, Rocket Rod Silva

    This is When We Grow Up, the podcast where we ask where we’ve been to know where we’re going.

     

    We’re only a couple of weeks out from Father’s Day and hosts Nicho Hynes and Marlee Silva thought there wouldn’t be a more fitting time to sit down with Rocket Rod Silva - Marlee’s Dad.

     

    Rocket played 14 years in the NRL for the Roosters and Bulldogs. In this chat he shares about the journey to get there from housing commission in Western Sydney, overcoming racism and the roller coaster of being a professional athlete, particularly after losing his sister and father in a 12 week period at the height of his career. 

     

    Thanks so much for listening!
