#235 - Tommy Herschell is helping young men navigate their hardships & find their feet.
Tommy Herschel is the founder of https://findyafeet.org/A former educator with his own hardships & childhood trauma, Tommy found himself searching for answers at the bottom of the bottle before a few of his closest people held him accountable & encouraged him to turn his life around. On the journey of discovering himself & working through his own trauma, Tommy found his feet & in the process developed a purpose to help young Aussies find their feet too.Not one to buy into the bullshit, Tommy doesn't believe that true impact is a product of labelling yourself a 'bloke whisperer' or 'expert' but rather by leading with vulnerability, taking ownership for your mistakes & connecting through real conversation & mate-ship. His workshops in schools & presence online has been backed by some of the countries best athletes & biggest names in media, all of whom recognise what I seen in Tommy when i was first connected with his work: a true champion with a heart of gold, who has had an immense impact on over 50,000 young Australian's.This yarn was packed with stories of life changing realisations, moments of true inspiration & discussion as to the challenges young men are facing in 2024.You can follow Tommy & I on social media @bradleyjdryburgh @findyafeetShare the episode with your mates & on your social platforms so that it can continue to grow & help more people, & if you love listening make sure that you are subscribed/following on your favourite poddy platform.Big Love,Brad xoxo Hosted on Acast.

#234 - Billy Dib: How a 2 time boxing world champion found the will to live in his darkest hour.
Billy Dib is a former world champion boxer with a professional record of 48 wins & 6 losses. Having fought legends like Amir Khan, it might come as a surprise to hear that Dib's toughest opponent was found outside of the ring with far more than world titles at stake. Billy's diagnosis with cancer in 2017 set the scene for his toughest fight to date & the 6 months his doctor gave him to live meant he would be fighting for his life.His story is one of great inspiration, surrendering to faith, identifying a purpose to not only survive but thrive & developing a champion mindset.It was a pleasure to share this conversation with Billy, I hope you find value in it like I did.You can connect with Billy & I on socials @bradleyjdryburgh @billydibI'd greatly appreciate if you could share the poddy with your mates & be sure to subscribe to the channel so that you don't miss the incredible conversations to come.

Sexual assault & violence against women: A societal crisis with a human solution.
Humanity is currently facing a crisis. Women are falling victim to physical, sexual & emotional abuse at the hands of men & the statistics tell a sad story of a culture gone wrong.I spent the morning having a long form conversation with 2 of my best mates. We are certainly not experts, we don’t have all the answers but we wanted to start a conversation & create dialogue to develop our understanding, to be accountable for what needs to change & to lead the way for other men to do the same. We understand that the we can only try to empathise with women, but we can’t speak to their personal experiences as young men & because of that, we invite anyone listening to the episode or watching along to contribute to the conversation with feedback or their own perspective. Cultural change requires a collective effort.In this conversation, we discuss:- What does it mean to be a good man?- How we can take responsibility to create safer environments for women to live without looking over their shoulder or feeling uncomfortable in environments like the workplace, school & bars/clubs?- Redefining sexual abuse & giving clarity to what society has previously defined as a ‘grey area’.- Sharing the female perspectives of women we know & the work advocates like Chanel Contos are doing to help women call out in-appropriate behaviour & help men understand it. - The problematic narratives in media that creat further division instead of unity for positive change. & much more.

James O'connor on facing his demons, self discovery & life as a well travelled rugby legend.
James O’Connor burst onto the super rugby scene as a 17 year old & had his first Wallabies cap at the ripe age of 18. His early talent marked him a stand out for rugby fans & a target for the Australian media. As a young man mistakes are inevitable & James’ often made for good headlines on the back page & a tirade of criticism. Both of which hugely influenced his decision to step outside of Australia & explore career opportunities in Europe for a number of years. Now back on home soil, it’s clear that James has made peace with himself & ultimately has nothing to prove, yet a lot to show for the journey he has been on. His 16 year career has been one of many twists & turns. He has battled substance & alcohol addiction, faced his demons & come out the other side with a legendary career that is still well & truly alive at the Queensland Reds.
