On this week’s Better By Next Week podcast 🎙️ Tim and Ollie sit down with Brady Nankervis to unpack what happens when running becomes more than training, and starts shaping how you live, work, and help others 🌱

Brady shares the quiet shifts that slowly changed his direction, from life as a tradie to building purpose through running, nutrition, and mental-health support. We dive into career pivots, confidence, and what it really takes to step into work that aligns with who you’re becoming, not who you used to be.

The conversation goes deep into social media, pressure, and authenticity, including the moments that redefine what “hard” actually means when running meets real life. Brady opens up about DNFs, emotional finishes, long-distance suffering, and why asking for help can be a strength, not a weakness.

There’s plenty of practical gold for runners too. Simple nutrition habits, easy runs done right, mindset versus fuel, early-morning discipline, and lessons learned from everything from a first DNF to finishing UTA and tackling 30 marathons in 30 days 🏃‍♂️🔥

Honest, grounded, and full of perspective, this episode is for anyone chasing growth, purpose, and progress both on the run and beyond it.
