The You Project

What is self-awareness? Why does it matter? How can we improve it? What impact does it have on everything from work, relationships and problem-solving to anxiety, happiness and connection? Why do I do think the way I think, feel the way I feel and behave the way I behave? Where does all this ‘me stuff’ come from and does it serve me or sabotage me? This brief episode is not so much a (typical) podcast, as it is Craig sharing a few thoughts and ideas around self-awareness (internal and external) and the understanding of self. It’s a brief introduction to a very big conversation. Kind of a podcast-ette. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

TYP favourite, Geoff Jowett has reinvented himself over the last few years. The one-time high-flying, drug-taking, ego-driven, money-making entrepreneur had all the trappings of success, but none of the experience. The external show was a façade hiding a plethora of personal issues, challenges, addictions and pain. As many of you know, Geoff hit rock bottom and now describes that painful time as the best thing to ever happen to him. In this episode, we discuss the stories we have around money, tapping into the universal intelligence, the healing power of animals, dealing with criticism and negativity, being fully present, why soft is strong, being addicted to drama, getting triggered, the joy of stillness and the freedom of having nothing to prove. This is maybe my favourite Geoff chat.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What’s your life telling you? Are you living your purpose, passion and values or are you treading water in your own personal Groundhog Day? Spinning your wheels? Living in a holding pattern? Or maybe worse? Are you over-thinking and under-doing? Wasting your potential? Self-sabotaging your way into frustration and stagnation? Don’t beat yourself up; it’s a pretty big club. We all want to live our best lives but what does that actually mean? And where does our idea of ‘best’ come from? Is a ‘best life’ experience about what’s happening in our external (physical) world or is it more about that non-physical (internal) space? Maybe it’s about both? This episode is not a prescription (of course) but rather, an interesting conversation around what it means to live our best life and how we might go about it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is essentially a one hour coaching and teaching workshop. It’s not so much a conversation as it is, an exploration into what it takes to be the person who ‘gets in shape’ (whatever that means for you) and stays that way. Forever. In it, Craig explores the seven key influencers and determinants of physical transformation. If you’re after some motivational fluff, a self-help cuddle or a back rub, this is not for you. But, if you’re sick of your own bullshit and you’re ready to own up, step up and do the work, tune in.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jen Forster was a goal-setting, box-ticking, high-performer. She developed and owned successful businesses, gained an MBA, ran 100km races, built her ‘best’ body, ventured to Everest base camp, did lots of cool things and in the middle of it all, she was miserable. From the outside looking in, her life was shiny and impressive but the internal experience, was quite different. This conversation is about Jen’s story out of unconsciousness and anxiety and into consciousness and calm. Enjoy.jenniferforster.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Apart from being the wife of AFL Hall-of-Famer Paul Roos, Tami Roos is a superstar in her own right, with a PhD in Parapsychic Science (it’s a thing), a best-selling book and a successful career as a Corporate Speaker and Meditation Teacher. It’s fair to say that Craig was excited to open this particular conversational door and go deep on all things science, spirituality, psychology and happiness.

This brief episode is essentially a coaching session (of sorts), where Craig unpacks the first ten principles (of thirty) from his most popular book. The book his mother calls… the sweary one. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

One-time Journalist, TV Presenter and Sportscaster, these days Brad McEwan is immersed in the ‘helping people’ space and he’s great at it. As an ambassador for Beyond Blue, a mental health advocate, corporate speaker and chief cheerleader for kindness, Brad is someone I love spending time with. In this episode, we talk about everything from friendly strangers and love languages to cyber-workshops, decluttering and his obsession with spices.bradmcewan.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Luke Milton is a ripper. He’s the ex NRL player who went to the US, established a totally Aussie brand (Training Mate) in the middle of LA, started working with celebrities, got a gig on ‘Revenge Body’ with Khloe Kardashian, set up three training centres (with more on the way) and is building a fitness empire while having fun, keeping it real and creating a space where people are encouraged to learn, laugh and sweat at the same time.matetogo.trainingmate.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Cam McDonald is back and this episode is seriously fascinating. And valuable. There is so much great information in this chat, you’ll want to listen twice. Along the way, we talk about how, just being around certain people can be good or bad for your health. Why your job might not be a good ‘fit' for your biology. Why certain colours, clothes, music and environments can boost or suppress your immune system and impact your nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory and endocrine systems, for better or worse. And lots more.ph360.meSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
