A podcast I recorded as I was traveling up the east coast in my van making my way to my new home in Palm Beach.

It’s amazing to me the amount of people that message me saying “they wish they could do what I’m doing.” This always trips me out a little as I believe what I’m doing isn’t that far out of the ordinary, I’m just traveling solo through this country making new friends and catching up with old ones along the way, I think this something we should all do more of, step outside our comfort zone and really experience life to its fullest.

We never know when everything will change and how long for, so stop what you’re doing and take a big breath, think about what you want out of this life and then go into it headfirst!

Enjoy!

Joe McDonald and Sultan Kirby: All aboard the Banter train!

This one is a little different sports team! Where usually I try delve into my guests backstories and figure out what makes them tick and how they view the world, there's none of that here today.I sit down with my housemate Sultan and one of my good friends Joe to chat about anything and everything. From things that grind our gears to semi-incriminating tales of past situations.

We don't really chat about anything in particular but we laugh pretty much the entire time and it's full of banter and high energy. These two guys are both hilarious and full of one liners, easy to chat with and seem to get along with eachother judging by the amount of crap that gets chatted on this podcast.

Overall these two boys are brilliant energy to be around and this conversation was one of the most ridiculous and enjoyable chats I've had in a long time! Hope you enjoy the laughter!

Cato Sibthorpe:

On this episode of the podcast I sit down with Cato Sibthorpe, I met Cato down at the Burleigh Heads beach gym helping young kids learn gymnastic trick, straight away we hit it off and I knew I had to get him on the podcast.

We really dive into the importance of having good role models in your life, especially from a young age.We go over the social pressure and expectations put onto as when we come straight out of school along with the lack of guidance leading into adulthood.We go over how we’re not the only out there and how he believes aliens are already among us.

It’s very rare you can sit down with a person like Cato and have such a genuine, open conversation after only meeting the person once before.

All and all Cato is a straight up person that you get what you see, and what you get is pretty empowering and uplifting in my option.

Enjoy!

On this episode of the podcast I sit down with my newly found fitness coach Cameron Shean, we both linked up while training at Never Quit Burleigh and haven’t looked back since.

Cam is an excellent coach that not only pushes his clients but also himself, seeing him chase after his 100% in the gym was a massive motivational factor to want to start working with him now and in the future.

Cam is someone that likes to step out of his comfort zone, whether it be in the gym or packing his life and move to Australia, Cam is one to lean into it.Moving from Bristol in the UK and leaving behind a successful personal training career Cam set his eyes on Australia and a new found adventure with his partner Leah, together they travelled around Aus collecting amazing stories and life long friends before landing themselves on the Gold Coast and a new found home.

Also on this podcast we go in-depth on the struggle of growing up in a lower class environment and the power it can give you if you let it.The energy you get from the people around you.Pushing yourself to the limit and how that’s where you find your true self.Being a good human being for no other reason that it feels good for you and others.

Enjoy!

Jase McAlpine aka the Gypsy!

Three years ago I reached out to Jase to see if I could have the opportunity to come onto his podcast “Gypsy Tales” and help my story, Jase accepted the offer and what followed was something quite life changing for myself, it showed me the reach and power my words could have on so many different people, it also showed me where my true fulfilment came from.

Can’t thank Jase enough for giving me that opportunity back then, we joked about when I would finally make the move up here that he would come and be a guest on my podcast, and guess what, we got there.

Jase is the voice behind one of the fastest growing action sports podcast in the world “Gypsy Tales” and has had on such guest as Daniel Ricciardo, Sam Hill, Dean Wilson and Jeffrey Herlings to name a few.

Jase started this whole journey as a film maker that headed to the US to film Pro Motocross at the highest level, when this didn’t work out as planned and Jase was forced to move back to Australia that’s when he put all his eggs in the basket and backed himself and the podcast.

We go over a wide range of topics from the future of the podcast and moving to Dubai to balancing your work and personal life while also filming half of everything you do.

Really enjoyed this one and hope you do too!

Enjoy!

Cooper Chapman is the man, hands down!

It’s not every day you meet a person that seems to be on the exact same path as you but a few steps further ahead, that’s how it felt when I first got the opportunity to meet Cooper.

Cooper first busted onto the seen as an up an coming surfer that quickly put himself at the pointy end of competitive surfing in Australia and then around the world.

Cooper, like most athletes based so much of his identity around his craft and as a result when things didn’t start going right later in his career he became lost and looked at his entire life not going right.When he lost his ride this gave Cooper a new opportunity, instead of dwelling on it Cooper decided to start up a mental health organisation called “The Good Humans Factory” based around making mental health cool and giving everyone the tools to keep their mental health in a positive state.

All around I loved doing this podcast because I feel the things Cooper is bring to the conversation can help so many people in a vast variety of ways.

Enjoy!

What are your triggers?

What sets you off on a great day filled with nothing but excitement and optimism and what sets you off and makes you wish you never even got out of bed?

I think most of us know what our triggers are, and what we will get out of them, but that’s not really the issue here, knowing what something is, is only half the battle, the second part of the battle is actually putting effort toward doing or not doing the thing you will either get a positive or negative repones out of.

That’s where it gets tricky, that’s where we stop watching ourselves and breaking down what we need to be our very best.I think a big part of this comes from our want to observe others through social media, we end up knowing more about our friends, family, colleagues, athletes, actors, and even complete strangers than we know about ourselves, and this leaves us with no direction to what we truly want and leaves us in comparison based mindset that ultimately robs us of our happiness.

I find the best way to get around this is to really check in with yourself and even view yourself in the third person to understand better what drives your “WHY” and what your intention is in any given situation.

Understand yourself first before you try and start understanding the rest of the world.

Enjoy!

On this episode of the podcast, I sit back down with fellow nomad and all-around legend Baxter Maiwald as we are both currently traveling up the coast in our van/bus escaping the wild weather back in Victoria.

Baxter loves riding his bike, period! The type of bike doesn’t really matter, as long as he is on two wheels you will see a smile on his face.Starting out as a racer with a very successful junior career Baxter has now moved more into the freeride media side of the industry, saying that he’s still one of the fastest downhill riders in the country with him finishing 3rd at national champs earlier this year in Tasmania.

He has shifted his focus now to fit in with what he gets the most enjoyment out of, such as trail building, video projects, photo shoots, the odd race, traveling in his bus, and hanging out with his trail dog “Gnala”.

He talks about the negatives and positives of walking his own path and the setbacks he has been facing lately.

We go in-depth with the state of trail building in Australia currently and how it needs to change.

All and all I always enjoy chatting with Baxter and hope you enjoy the convo!

Cheers!
