Life transitions can feel messy. Whether it’s quarter-life confusion, a “mid-life crisis”, or simply that quiet voice asking, “Is this it?” In this episode of Dorothy and the Dealer, Mitch and Mills dive into what it really takes to move through those seasons with purpose.

We’ll explore how to:

Find clarity when the old roadmap stops making sense

Align with your partner so you’re building a life together, not drifting apart

Ask better questions: What do I truly love? Who do I want to spend my time with? Where do I want to travel? How do I want to contribute?

Reimagine your future by getting curious about the one thing that lights you up—and learning how to build your life around it

This is your reminder that a “crisis” is really just a calling to look deeper. If you’ve ever felt stuck, lost, or ready for something more, this conversation will help you turn uncertainty into direction, and direction into a life you actually love.

In this Q&A-style episode, Mitch and Mills answer some of the big (and super relatable) questions sent in by listeners and our coaches. From doing the things you need to do, even when you’ve got zero energy, to figuring out if you're really following your vision - or just stuck on autopilot—they cover it all with their usual mix of honesty, heart, and a bit of humour.

They also unpack the fine line between understanding someone’s behaviour... and making excuses for it. And when it comes to those big emotions—anger, jealousy, sadness—they flip the script: it’s not about fixing your feelings, it’s about loving them. With a few tangents into work-life balance, showing up for yourself, and what it really means to lead with awareness, this episode is full of real-life tools and perspective shifts you’ll actually use.

In Part 2 of their deep dive on Non-Playing Characters (NPCs), Mitch and Mills pick up where they left off—unpacking what happens when people stop thinking for themselves and start living on autopilot.

They explore the difference between sourcing your truth from the outside world versus tuning into your inner voice, and how herd mentality can disconnect us from our intuition, values, and authentic power. It’s a real look at the tension between trusting the external versus trusting yourself.

The duo also dig into the question everyone’s asking: “How do I help someone in this state?”—without pushing, preaching, or getting pulled into the same loop.

If you’ve ever felt like you're waking up in a world of people still asleep, this one’s for you. Thought-provoking, real, and full of gold for anyone learning to stand strong in their own truth.

A deep and thought-provoking chat about being a Non-Playing Character in your own life and witnessing others doing the same.

In this episode, Mitch and Mills get into a bit of a debate about the idea that there are just some people who will never “get it”. It’s one of those episodes that might leave you confused, or pondering life’s bigger questions.

Mills poses a good question: Are these people just ignorant to the fact that they can be more than a pawn in someone else's game.

Stay tuned for part 2.

In this episode, things get real—and a little rowdy—as Mitch and his best mate, Matthew Guscott, sit down for a brutally honest (and at times hilarious) chat about life, business, and starting over. Mills jokes it’s like listening to two 12-year-old boys half the time, but underneath the banter is a seriously powerful story of resilience.

Matt opens up about building a construction company, facing liquidation and bankruptcy, walking away from his marriage with kids in tow, and learning to let go of the life he had to create the one he truly wanted.

He also talks about his new partner, Brooke, and how her mission to run around Australia for mental health helped him open his heart and shift gears completely.

Brooke’s website for donations and supporting the cause: https://brookemcintosh.com.au/

What kicks off as a fun yarn about 80s rave culture and how music connects us all quickly turns into a deep (and surprisingly honest) chat about the battle scars it takes to become someone worth listening to.

Mitch and Mills dive into:

⚡ How AI’s changing the coaching game

👀 Why you need to be picky about who you take advice from

🤔 What actually qualifies someone to coach others

🎶 Plus, a reminder that music really is the universal language

It’s real, it’s raw, it’s a bloody good listen. Hit play and get amongst it.

In this deeply moving episode, Mitch and Mills sit down with their client and now colleague, Amelia Gow, to share a moment that shaped her life forever.

At just 16 years old, Amelia found out she was pregnant—and made the heartbreaking decision to place her son for adoption.

She opens up about what life was like back then, her mother’s reaction, the moment she let him go, and the turbulance that followed. Together, they explore the emotional weight of a system that offered little care or communication, and the decades-long ripple effects of that experience.

Now, 20 years later, Amelia reflects on meeting her son’s parents, reconnecting with her past, and how that journey became a catalyst for her own transformation. This episode is about grief, courage, identity—and the power of choosing healing when life gives you no clear roadmap.

Raw. Brave. Unforgettable.

Thank-you Amelia for sharing your journey.
