The You Project

This episode with money expert Jason Cunningham was not what either of us expected it to be. It was much better. As much as possible (and is practical) I try not to plan the conversations I have with guests but I guess we both thought we’d talk primarily about money, business, career, etc. We didn’t. What transpired was a deep and philosophical about dealing with hard sh*t (which he has been for the last few years), coming out the other side, the lessons we learn along the way and how we change in the middle of it.

David Gillespie, one of Australia’s best-selling Authors, is back and this time we talk about the potential relationship between ADHD and addiction, how quickly we become adapted to certain drugs (and need more and more), the drugs used (and supplied by governments) during the first and second World Wars to ‘keep the soldiers focused’ (amazing stuff), why breaking an addiction is so difficult (which most non-addicts don’t understand), what happens to us when we don’t get enough dopamine, when Australia used more cocaine than any other country in the world (per capita) and lots more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Karen Jacobsen is ‘Siri’. Well, more accurately, she’s the voice of Siri. She’s also the Sat-Nav lady. She’s been telling me (and a billion others) where to go for years and I didn’t even know it. No wonder she sounded familiar. Karen is also a brilliant musician, songwriter and performer who has played all over the world with huge names (Norah Jones, Neil Sedaka, Jon English and Christopher Cross) and at huge venues (Madison Square Garden, Fenway Park, Dodger Stadium, Giants Stadium, Suncorp Stadium). This was an interesting chat. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Lillian Nejad is back at TYP and this time we unpack mind fads, cliche memes, self-help that doesn’t help, delaying gratification, why I’m not special, how much empathy is too much, pushing the pleasure button, doing hard things, being positive but also practical and lots more.

Claire Turnbull is the founder of Mission Nutrition, a TV presenter, professional speaker, wellbeing educator and a published author. And like me, she has dealt with a sh*t-fest of challenges around body image, eating issues, self-sabotage, unhealthy habits and behaviours, self-esteem, self-worth and toxic thinking (about it all). These days she’s out the other side and uses her considerable knowledge, academic training and personal experience to empower others to understand the mind-emotion-body relationship and to create an operating system that works optimally for them.

After way too long, Pete Shepherd is back at TYP and this time we discuss the pain and pleasure, peaks and troughs, breakdowns and breakthroughs of tapping into our power, potential and possibilities. This was a fun chat and I think it will resonate with most of you. Enjoy. humanperiscope.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When the term ‘High Performance’ is used, it’s typically referring to people, teams and organisations who are at the top of their respective field (sport, business, science, entertainment) and those who are doing something that the majority won’t or can’t. And while I’ve worked with many of these types of ‘high performers’ (and had a great time), the type of high performance that fascinates me is a much bigger concept and one that is relevant to all of us. You. Me. Us. This is a conversation about that.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I was recently on Simply Practically Human with Mark LeBusque and we enjoyed a meandering chat about fear, motivation, cheerleaders, talent, potential, values, feedback, self-regulation, mediocrity and what we can achieve with what we’ve been given.
