Brothers N Others Podcast

This week on the podcast we have Lael Stone, an Australian Speaker, Educator, and Author. 

Lael's mission? Helping parents understand their kids, processing our own childhood baggage, and revamping how we teach emotions. 

It's all about empathy and building bridges. We delved into her journey, the rollercoaster of parenting, navigating the talk about the birds and the bees, mastering emotional control, and breaking the ice on those tough conversations. 

Join us for a dose of wisdom on crafting the parent you aspire to be and much more.

Join us for a candid conversation with former AFL player turned youth advocate, Glenn Manton.

While his career on the field brought him fame, our discussion delves deeper into his passion for youth work and community engagement.

Discover the journey that led Glenn from the spotlight of professional sports to the grassroots of empowering young minds.

Tune in as we explore the challenges, triumphs, and invaluable insights gained from a life dedicated to making a difference beyond the boundaries of the game.

What an absolute belter we have to kick it off. Hugh Van Cuylenburg from The Resilience Project. Author of two brilliant books ‘Finding happiness through gratitude, empathy and mindfulness’ and ‘Let go’ Also the co-host of the podcast ‘The Imperfects’

This was such a beautiful chat around parenting, work and childhood.

If you want to hear a previously untold story about Stanzin (a young boy that helped changed Hughs outlook on life and mentioned heavily in Hughs talks and books) then you better tune in.

You will absolutely love this chat as much as we did.

Trigger warning for this ep.

Susan is Australia’s foremost expert in the area of cyber safety and was a member of Victoria Police for 27 years.

Widely known as the ‘cyber cop’ she was the first Victoria Police Officer appointed to a position involving cyber safety and young people.

As we are well and truly into the holiday period and our kids are probably having some extended screen time.

We chat about safety tips for parents with kids on screens. Signs to look out for if they’ve witnessed things they aren’t ready to see yet and much much more.

I learnt a heap from this chat. It’s pretty confronting at times but we need to hear this stuff as parents to keep our kids safe online.

Fergus Watts was a top rated junior footballer. Drafted as a first round pick for the Adelaide Crows. After 5 games, he was traded back to his hometown of Melbourne to play for St Kilda. After 1 game and a string of injuries which resulted in multiple surgeries and the end of his career.

He turned his attention to marketing and later went on to form Bastion Collective which is the largest independent marketing agency in Australia.

Fergus tells us about how it all began for him at Reach way back as a teenager.

We got so much out of this chat and hope you do too.

A few years ago Nick attended a Gary Vee conference and decided from that day on he would dedicate his life to self improvement and helping others through his podcast. 

We loved his chat with Nick and we start this episode discussing what life is like for us all as fathers and the challenges we face. 

Enjoy the show!

Recently Steve sat down with Andrew Bauman for this chat with his own podcast Centre for Men, we thought it was such a great chat it was worth sharing here.

This week on the show we chat with Brenton Sanderson.

Sando was an OG Adelaide Crows player when they came into the AFL In 1991.

The path from then on was not smooth sailing. Traded, sacked and shipped across states.

Sando moved into coaching and that again has its bumps in the road. 

He’s kicking goals now with his company Evolve Performance where he works to help professionals develop an elite mindset.

Keith Banks was on the verge of adulthood when he made the 2 hour trek via train to the police academy at 17 years of age. A career that would span 20 years. Keith found himself in situations some of us will only see on TV, from taking drugs for the first time at gun point to sitting beside a man as he pulled the pin on a hand grenade. This chat with Keith was eye opening to say the least and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
