The You Project

Gillespo and the old-bodgey lifter of heavy things opened the protein door and had some fun exploring the science, the stories, the misinformation, the assumptions and the challenges for people eating certain types of diets. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

According to Nicole Liddell, "discipline is freedom" and if what she's been able to change, achieve and create over the last ten years is a byproduct of discipline, then I'd have to agree with her. Navigating mental health issues, obesity, poverty, domestic violence and a range of other challenges, and then evolving into the inspiration she is today (she wouldn't call herself that but I would), is nothing short of incredible. This is Nicole's second visit to TYP Central and just like the first one, l'm pretty sure most of you will love our conversation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode is me thinking out-loud about success. The idea of it. The experience of it. The cultural story of it. The marketing and branding of it. What it is and isn't. Why some 'successful people' are miserable and some people that society would label poor are mentally, emotionally and experientially rich. Why we keep moving the goal posts. Why the idea of it (success) is rarely the experience of it. And lots more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Not only is Dr. Jeff a specialist in regenerative stem cell medicine, anti-aging, longevity and integrative medicine but he's also a spine fellowship trained neurological surgeon. So, not an idiot then. With that in mind, this episode we decided to talk all-things 'dodgy backs'. Muscle stuff. Skeleton stuff. Sitting-on-our-arse stuff. Exercise and rehab stuff. Dealing-with-pain stuff. Treatment stuff and lots more. This was a broadly relevant and practical conversation that I believe many people will find helpful.

Hi Team, our tech nerd is back and here's what came up this time... Smart sunglasses with a built-in video camera/recorder that's recording you when you don't know; what could possibly go wrong? Jobs falling by the wayside as Al becomes the new much-cheaper 'preferred employee' for many companies. Nuclear batteries the size of a coin that will last without charging for a hundred years. Panic buying of vibrators (blame Patrick for that topic, not me). Why (some) people trust ChatGPT more than a lawyer for legal advice. Used EV batteries being repurposed to power homes, land plenty more. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The last two decades has seen the proliferation of 'Coaching' and not the sporting kind; the other kind. Or should I say, 'kinds'. Life Coaches. Business Coaches. Health Coaches. High-Performance Coaches. Nutrition Coaches. Relationship Coaches. Mental Health Coaches. Mindset Coaches. Leadership Coaches. Executive Coaches. Fitness Coaches. The List goes on. This time around, Bobby and I chat about what makes and good (or crap) Coach, their role, how to find one, who needs one, how it all works, what to avoid, who to avoid and we give a general insight into the industry as a whole.

Hi TYP’ers. I’m interstate at the moment, so today we're revisiting one of my favourite chats with Charlie Morley. Enjoy. *“The essence of Buddhism: (1) don’t be a dick (2) be kind to people (3) train your mind” – Charlie Morley (Buddhist Teacher). I didn’t want this episode to end. I loved the chat, loved Charlie and yes, I love my job. Charlie was a drug-taking, hard-living, wild young man who had a NDE (Near Death Experience) and who, through a series of twists and turns, became an internationally renowned Speaker, Lucid Dreaming Expert, best-selling Author (4 books, 15 languages), Teacher of Tibetan Buddhism, Mindfulness Coach and PTSD Expert, producing incredible results with military veterans. If you don’t enjoy this episode, I’ll refund your money. Lol.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Well, Dr. Lillian and I definitely opened the vulnerability door in this episode. Personal pain, revelations, vulnerable stories and even tears, were interspersed with a liberal smattering of science, psychology, effective communication, practicality and a deep dive into the lived experience of grief, trauma, loss and the myriad of intersecting emotions.

In this episode of TYP, Dr. Sam and I chat about being 'hangry' (it's a real thing!), incidental vs. structured learning, bullying, how much praise is too much (when can it become a negative?), separation anxiety, when to give kids access to social media (etc.), kids finding their identity, the pros and cons of kids in sport, kids manipulating parents and lots more.

Dr. Denise pulls back the curtain, destroys the mystery and tells us about the very recent arrival of her... cellulite. She's not happy. What started out as a regular TYP episode with one of the smartest minds and best science communicators in Australia, somehow transformed into something of a private coaching session (for the Doc) - complete with laughs, lightbulbs and more personal revelations, in a not-so-private setting. This was fun and I think for many listeners, there was plenty of relevant content. Enjoy. drdenisefurness.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
