CamBro Conversations

Today’s conversation is with Paul Mort, a master coach, a mentor, an author and a keynote speaker This podcast was over 6 months in the making and it is well worth the wait. We go back to the most turbulent period of Paul’s life in 2014. He shares what was happening during that time for him mentally despite his incredible business success. Expect to learn about how Paul has channeled this period to help himself and now thousands of other men. His style is direct, fast paced and unique. You cannot help but get fired up listening to his message, while there are some big questions to ask and consider yourself when it comes to how you live your life and how you personally manage your mental health. I even get a row during this conversation for saying that I can’t comment strongly on mental health because I’ve not experienced significant low periods or diagnosed challenges, and I’m very thankful for Paul’s direct straight talking style and message. On a practical level, we dive into journaling, managing your inner critic, self talk, sources you can learn from as well as the hot topic of no-fap and even Harry Styles.

Today’s conversation is with Dr. Daniel Crosby. Daniel is a psychologist, behavioural finance expert and asset manager who applies his study of market psychology to everything from financial product design to security selection. He is the author of The Behavioural Investor, co-author of the New York Times bestseller Personal Benchmark: Integrating Behavioural Finance and Investment Management, and the Chief Behavioural Office at Orion Advisors Solutions. This conversation was exciting to have because Daniel is at forefront of behavioralising finance. His ideas have appeared in the Huffington Post and Risk Management Magazine, as well as his monthly columns for WealthManagement.com and Investment News. Daniel was named one of the "12 Thinkers to Watch" by Monster.com, a "Financial Blogger You Should Be Reading" by AARP and in the "Top 40 Under 40" by Investment News. Daniel is perfectly positioned to explain so many big topics, emotions, feelings and trends when it comes to our relationship with money. Expect to learn what behavioural finance is, if money can buy happiness, just what was going on with the Reddit stock picking drama in recent years, the role of hedonic adaptation in our spending, and much more. I also aspect Daniel about his own approach and how he navigates the psychological pitfalls that humans can fall into as investors. In terms of understanding why you behave the way you do with money, this episode cannot be beaten. I hope you get the opportunity to absorb this information and education before considering your own plans. As ever with conversations like this, it should not be construed as financial advice for your personal circumstances and instead viewed as education.

Today’s conversation is with Ben Esgro, Co-Founder & Head of Research and Product Development at Elemental Formulations. Ben has the perfect blend of experience and knowledge for today’s topic which is caffeine. With his Master’s degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences, he is in a position to really dive into different drugs, substances and supplements. Expect to learn how our bodies react to caffeine and how caffeine reacts within our bodies. Understanding this enables how you can employ caffeine for both physical performance and cognitive benefits. This leads to Ben and I discussing sources, dosages, how our genetics influence our absorption and reaction, as well as practical implementations that we personally do. One of the key areas Ben touches on is whether there is potential to become less sensitive to caffeine. I loved learning about the different responses people have whether their genetic profile leads to them being a warrior or worrier and whether you are a fast or slow metaboliser of caffeine.

Katie shares her thoughts on investing in large cap funds like the S&P500, how lifestyle creep can derail your financial plans, and we discuss what on earth has been going on in the market recently as well as the rising inflation rate.

Today’s conversation is with Shane O’Mara, Professor of Experimental Brain Research at Trinity College Dublin and author of “In Praise of Walking”. His best-selling book 'In Praise of Walking: A New Scientific Exploration' was chosen by the editors at Amazon as one of the best science books of 2020. Expect to learn about how humans are unique in how we walk and the ancestral history of walking. Shane explains how society and our lives have changed with the reduction in movement and move away from walking. Shane’s research has demonstrated the physical benefits of walking and how it impacts our health and longevity. Many of you will already have a steps habit, but this is compelling for increasing this further and doubling down. I have long spoken about the benefits of walking and less formal exercise to improve body composition and calorie expenditure, but I was most excited to talk bout how walking can improve our brains. Shane shares some incredible insight on creativity, memory, mental health and more. The sedentary lifestyle that the western world is set up to maintain is a real challenge. Not only will you learn how we can attempt to fix this as a society, you will get actionable advice on how to take personal responsibility.

Today’s conversation is with Kezia Noble, the leading dating and attraction coach for men. Kezia has helped over 1 million men since 2006 to overcome the challenges that they experience when meeting and attracting women. Expect to learn about the common mistakes that men make, how men can have better conversations with women, how to compliment effectively and escalate a conversation, and why being a nice guy is not the best approach. As part of this conversation, I ask about the differences between Kezia’s approach and the traditional pick up artist scene as well as Kezia’s thoughts on dating apps. Two big questions we dive into include whether women still want an alpha male and how the pandemic has impacted the dating market. Kezia has a great direct style and we don’t mess about from the very start of this episode. Today’s podcast is supported and sponsored by The Physio Clinic Glasgow.

Today’s conversation is with Darren Lee, host of the Kick Off Sessions Podcast and Operations Manager in Wealth and Trading at Revolut. Darren’s made significant career moves within the corporate world after struggling to find fulfilment in one of his first roles after graduating. I ask about the process behind this and how it led to Darren starting his podcast Kick Off Sessions, which is now the largest Careers podcast in Ireland. Darren’s show offers expert advice to young professionals to help them gain more from their career. Expect to learn about Darren’s own career journey and the stand out lessons about career development from over 80 episodes on Kick Off Sessions. There is lots to this conversation including fulfilment, mindset, self development sources, and career mentoring. Given Darren juggles his full time career and creating content as well as a passion for bodybuilding, I ask about time management but more importantly energy management to prevent burnout. This was really interesting for us both to talk about using our mental bandwidth. Lastly, Darren shares his experience with hair loss and the actions he taken to reverse this. This includes things he has stopped doing as well as started. Today’s podcast is supported and sponsored by The Physio Clinic Glasgow.

Today’s conversation is with Simon Thomas, former Blue Peter presenter, Sports broadcaster, and author. Expect to learn about the experiences that shaped Simon as a young man and the steps and years on career development that took place before his break on Blue Peter in 1998. This is a story of perseverance and belief, and within this I understand more about Simon’s Christian faith and the role this played in his life. Simon’s next step was into the world of sports broadcasting and led to his dream of presenting live Premier League Football. As part of this discussion, Simon opens up about the anxiety that started to cause him problems in his second season presenting the Premier League and what he now understands about himself and life to support him working in this high pressure environment in the future. During the peak of Simon’s challenges with anxiety, his wife Gemma tragically passed away in autumn 2017 and he bravely shares this period of his life during our conversation. I have tremendous admiration for Simon and his ability to speak articulately about tragedy. Importantly, he discusses the acts of kindness, support and positive events that can come from our lowest moments and biggest heartbreaks.
