Jeffrey Morgan is a respected health & wellness coach in Sydney, Australia.Known for his popular mental health & performance workshops, Jeff takes great pride in offering his unique perspective & sharing lessons learned to empower those who cross his path.Though not all lessons are learned in a class room or on the gym floor. Jeff received his education on Everleigh Street, Redfern. A life unlike anything you can imagine, that existed within its own bubble & more often than not, all roads lead to Rome: or in this case, a concrete prison cell.Jeffrey's journey begun at the ripe age of 12 years old, breaking & entering a school canteen was an act of survival for he & his brother. But red frogs don't feed you for long & soon enough, their targets become a whole lot bigger. Bank robbery was the final straw & before long, he was behind bars serving a 15 year sentence.Sometimes we find hope in the most unlikely places & in this episode, Jeff describes the watershed moment that changed his life, the inmate who became his mentor & the redemption story that truly turned the tide.It is incredible to see how Jeff has changed his life & the work he does to help others from heading down the path he once did. A proud indigenous man doing a whole lot of good in the world, this made for one hell of a conversation.Be sure to follow Jeff & I on socials: @jeffreymorganlifestyleprogram @bradleyjdryburghDon't forget to follow/subscribe to the poddy on your platform of choice & share the ep with your mates.Big love,Brad.

Clarrie Moore is one of the co-founders behind the ‘Motorino’ brand.   The man they call “Claka Bulk” has spent his life living by the sea in North Bondi. Though the famous Aussie beach isn’t just his home, it’s home to the brand that was built on the back of a lifestyle. Riding Motorino’s & sharing good times with mates started to catch fire amongst social circles & from it, a brand was born as a uniform to represent that way of life.  As they say, “from little things, big things grow” & that mantra has followed the growth of this brand into a popular fashion label that’s developing from the root of its more exclusive origins to include a greater pool of people who can relate to the brand for its fun nature & growing culture.  I sat down with Clarrie to discuss Motorino’s origin story, the trials & tribulations of building a brand, the lessons of his life & what anchors him as an entrepreneur & multiple business owner.   I have no doubt, that as you watch/listen in, you will see that Claka & I share a lot of similarities in our personality & that made for a really enjoyable conversation. One in which, has plenty of gems & key takeaways.   Be sure to follow Clarrie, Motorino & I on socials: @clakabulk @motorino.nb @bradleyjdryburgh & head to the link in the Motorino bio to shop their collection or tune into their podcast!  Don't forget to follow/subscribe to the poddy on your platform of choice & share the ep with your mates. Big love, Brad.

Brett Connellan was mauled by a bull shark at Kiama's "Bombo beach" in May 2016. Narrowly escaping the attack with his life, Brett was told he may never walk again. That is where this story begins...Pyrophytes are plants which have adapted to tolerate fire. In fact, some of these species react favourably to it, growing stronger & more resistant. It's fair to say, Brett shares a strand of DNA with a pyrophyte, in that the shark attack & all of the challenges that came along with recovery only fuelled his growth. Pyrophytic is a film about living life on a second chance. A story of opportunity masked by challenge & revealed where great tragedy was avoided. Brett Connellan & good friend/filmmaker Sam Tolhurst have worked tirelessly to capture that journey over the past 2 years. The last piece of the puzzle is the "Molokai 2 Oahu Paddleboard World Championships". A 52km race from one Hawaiian island to another that will serve as the final message of this documentary feature film. I have been blessed to connect with these great fellas & even had the pleasure of running alongside Brett in our #42forCF marathon last year, in which he supported my charity. This story is beyond inspiring & has the power to leave lasting impact on the world & the way we all see life.Be sure to follow the boys, the film & I on socials: Insta @bradleyjdryburgh & @pyrophyticfilm @brettconnellan @_tollywoodDon't forget to follow/subscribe to the poddy on your platform of choice & share the ep with your mates.Big Love,Brad.

James Storer is the definition of resilient. A proud Fijian & Aboriginal man who grew up in an environment that tested every ounce of your strength & will to survive. Jimmy's childhood was an environment surrounded by alcohol & violence. It shaped him as the provider & protector for his family at a young age & it is why he describes himself as a young man at the ripe age of 8 years old. When faced with such adversity, most conform to it by adolescence. Choosing to lead a life similar to the one they have been exposed to, but James chose a different path. One that required him to have gratitude for the challenges & hardship he had faced. Gratitude that fuelled his success as a professional rugby league player & drove him to represent Fiji at 3 rugby league world cups. There are some people you meet in this life that leave you inspired with each encounter, Jimmy is one of those fellas. A story of true resilience in the face of great adversity.Be sure to follow James & I on socials: Insta @bradleyjdryburgh & @jameskstorerDon't forget to follow/subscribe to the poddy on your platform of choice & share the ep with your mates.Big Love,Brad.
