Welcome back to the Driven Young podcast and today is another great episode specifically targeting those of you in Gen z who are feeling a bit lost in life.

Today I am joined by Uncle Nathan. Nathan is a 19-year-old business student with a passion to help young people with what we should be learning in school, specifically mental health and financial literacy.

He has created the brand uncle Nathan and shares blog posts, graphics and his podcast to his audience of young people wanting to learn more.

Nathan got ahold of my phone number, sent me a video message, we grabbed a coffee and now here we are.

In this episode we cover:

• Nathans schooling experience
• How he felt like his identity was wrapped up in his marks
• The only decision is the wrong decision
• why getting control of your finance is so important
• The strategies we both use
• Inflation, compound interest, long term investing, ETFs

and so much more.

This episode definitely turned into a money and finance episode but there is still so much gold around mindset, comparison, impostor monster and more.

As per usual, if you enjoy this episode please DM me or go find Nathan and DM him letting him know what you think, he is more than happy to have a chat and answer any questions. Please consider leaving a review on Apple podcasts, that really helps me out and you can help support the show by buying me a coffee with the link at the bottom of the show notes.

Welcome back to the Driven Young Podcast and today we are talking all things creative and how to make it in a creative field.

Going into a creative field often has a very unclear pathway especially if you are trying to build your personal brand and reputation as an artist, designer, filmmaker etc. That is why today I am joined by James Patrick. James is a fulltime artist and has been for the past 7 years. Spending all of his time tiny detailed artworks at home or massive murals in the city, James has been able to successfully monetise his creativity and build a significant following online of over 30,000 people.

In today's episode we talk about

• Is art school worth it?
• How do you make it as creative today?
• How much is your creativity worth
• Why people will hate no matter how good you are
• How to monetise your creativity
• The importance of marketing yourself
• Should we be a creative first or a marketer first

And so much more....

Happiness scorecard:  www.happinessscorecard.com.au

Welcome back to the Driven Young podcast and today we are talking about all things happiness and gratitude!

So many people are so negative, the news is so negative and so much of what we consume is negative and all of this can have a serious effect on us.

So today I have brought on Happiness Expert and researcher Declan Edwards. I met Declan on Clubhouse and he blew my friends and I away with some of the stuff he was saying. So much so we have since become friends and I invited him on the podcast to share his knowledge with you all!

Declan is the founder of the company BU, he has a bachelor of health, a Postgraduate Certificate in Positive Psychology and has Practitioner Certifications in NLP, CBT + Acceptance & Commitment Therapy. His entire company is based on the science of happiness (which I know sounds bizarre) but they do some seriously awesome stuff in the company.

In today's episode we get into:

• Declans Story of how he didn't do what his parents wanted him too
• The top regret of the dying
• why motivation isn't always good
• Social media and mental health
• being vulnerable
• What the goal of your 20s should be
• How to focus on the positive rather than the negative
• And so much more...

This episode also comes with a gift, I have added two downloadable PDF's with some super powerful questions we discuss on this episode, they are completely free and you can find the link in the show notes.

Welcome back to the Driven Young podcast and today I joined by Alasdair Barrie. We met on Clubhouse, hit it off and had some fun chats so I decided to invite him onto the show.

Alisdair is a marketing growth hacker / Crypto Trader / Relationships dude who has built a following of over 750,000 followers online. He has worked in over 10 industries and helped run one of the most successful marketing campaigns on TikTok, getting free marketing from Dixie Damellio and other massive influencers.

I should preference, this is a hardcore episode. Alasdair is super into personal development, he has very strong opinions on university, he wakes up super early and works very hard. I usually stay away from episodes like this because I have a love-hate relationship with the personal development world, I think it is amazing but can also be very toxic. However, I do know a lot of people will benefit from this episode, hopefully, give you some motivation, a slap in the face and a much need perspective shift.

I don't agree with everything he says in the episode, and you don't have to either, but this is why I love bringing on new people, I love hearing how everyone lives their life and I am sure there are a lot of things in this episode you will love.

So there was your warning, as this gets episode is full-on, but super valuable.

We get into:

• Personal development
• Why Alasdair heavily disagrees with the University system,
• The importance of growing your network
• How so many people have a victim mindset
• The difference between being alone and lonely

And so much more.

As per usual feel free to DM me on Instagram if you enjoyed this episode, and I did want to let you know I am opening up my new 6-week coaching program to new applicants. If you enjoy the show and want to take it to the next level and spend time with me and other awesome young people, head over to www.Drivenyoung.com/coach, that is www.drivenyoung.com/coach to apply. Spots are very limited as I want to keep the group small so I can spend time with everyone.

Welcome back to the Driven Young podcast and today I am joined by an incredibly smart woman.

Dr Majeda Awawdeh, the founder of Global Education Academy, has completed a PhD degree at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Mathematics Education and Cognitive Load Theory. She also holds a Bachelor Degree in Mathematics and Computer Sciences, a Bachelor degree in Education, and a Masters Degree (with high distinction) in Mathematics Education.

She is also the author of an incredible book I highly recommend called "Who cares about Maths anyway?, Why Schools are Failing to Teach – An Analytical Overview of the Education System". I read this and learnt so much in such a short time.

It is really awesome to have someone like this come on the show who can back up so much of what I talk about with years of research, data and statistics, I also love that she was a teacher and still is, because it helps get across my point, that it isn't the teacher's fault or the school's fault, it is the education system as a whole which is failing to teach.

If you agree with my beliefs about the school system or want to find out more about it then this is a great episode for you...

Today we cover:

• Her journey as a math teacher
• Her transition from turkey to Australia and how different the education system is
• Why giving students a "C" or an average mark is pointless
• What school is failing to teach us
• Why teachers are so important and why the standard for teaching is too low
• How people struggle to think for themselves
• Importance of creativity

And so much more.

Welcome back to the Driven Young podcast and guys I am so excited to announce, today is my first ever sponsored episode.

After 50 episodes, I have refused all sponsor offers as I am super careful with brands I want to promote. This is how I plan to use sponsors, rather than do a 30-second ad read, I prefer to bring on the founder or CEO and learn about their story and provide as much value as possible.

So today I am joined by Blake, the CEO of Bamboo. Bamboo is a micro investments platform that allows anyone to seamlessly purchase digital assets, like Gold and Bitcoin. It's an easy, secure, and effective way to participate in this growing asset class. All you need is a mobile phone and a bank account to get started.

So at the time of releasing this episode, bitcoin has been on fire and everyone wants to know more about cryptocurrency. Tesla recently invested $1.5 Billion into Bitcoin along with some other major companies. Hence why I wanted to bring on Blake, to deep dive into Bitcoin and Crypto.

Today we get into

• How did Bitcoin originate?
• What is Bitcoin and crypto?
• The opportunity crypto presents
• Why it is so volatile?
• The difference between crypto and our current currency
• Inflation
• Why bitcoin is like digital gold

And so much more.

If you are in Australia and want to get started investing in crypto, gold or silver, I highly recommend checking out get bamboo, they make it so easy for first-time investors to set up and start to dip their toes into the water. This is just as much a savings app as it is investing, think of it as a digital piggy bank. You slowly put away money over a long period of time. So if you want to start investing or create a better savings habit around your money, click the link in the description, sign up and you will get $10 for free, plus you will be helping me out as supporting the show at the same time, I personally use this app and love it so far.

As per usual guys, feel free to DM or Blake on Insta if you enjoyed this episode, make sure you follow me on Instagram along with the Driven Young Instagram, anything you need is in the link in bio.

I should quickly mention this episode is not financial advice in any way shape or form, as the information or advice is given does not take into account your particular objectives, financial situation or needs. You should, before acting on the advice, consider the appropriateness of the advice, having regard to your objectives, financial situation and needs. Bitcoin is HIGHLY volatile as we will mention in the episode.

Welcome back to the Driven Young Podcast and today I am joined by student counsellor Olivia Gabriella. And in this episode, we are talking about mental wellbeing, how and why Gen z are going through a pandemic of mental illnesses.

This is a hot topic on this show because I believe it is one of the biggest problems young people are facing right now. Every young person I meet seems to have a form of mental illness or knows many people who do, so why is this?

Today we go into Olivias story, why she does what she does, what she is seeing with the students who come to her, why men have such high rates of suicide, we get into school, have a healthy conversation around relationships for gen z and much much more....

Also I am excited to announce I have landed my first sponsor for this podcast, so that episode will be coming out soon and I am really excited to see what you all think. This is a big for the show as the more money I can bring in the more I can reinject back into the podcast and business to help it grow and reach more people, so keep an eye out for that!

As per usual, reach out to me or Olivia on insta if you have any questions or are enjoying the show, please considering leaving a rating or review on Apple podcasts and finally I have created a buy me a coffee link for anyone who wanted to help support the show, so if you want to buy me a coffee and help support the show just click on the link at the very bottom of the description.

Today I sit down and have a great conversation with Aaryan Shah. Aaryan is actually the younger brother of Sachin who episode 36 on the show.

Aaryan was born with a condition called Cerebral Palsy. Cerebral Palsy affects body movement, muscle control, muscle coordination, muscle tone, reflex, posture and balance. Basically, he does not have full control of his muscles, he uses a wheelchair to get around... however Aaryan is mentally fine, as you will see in this episode he is a really smart dude.

I was inspired by Aaryan after hearing all that he had accomplished at such a young age, whilst being born with this condition. Aaryan has gone surfing, he has climbed mountains, he has done a TEDx talk and I am just scratching the surface.

I think the common theme of this episode is so much of your limitations in life are in your mind. And that is exactly what we cover in today's episode. We go into his story, how he has achieved all he has, how he stays positive and continues to grow, how he makes friends, how we are all lucky we just have to take advantage of that luck and so much more.

As per usual, reach out to me on insta if you have any questions or are enjoying the show, please considering leaving a rating or review on Apple podcasts and finally I have created a buy me a coffee link for anyone who wanted to help support the show, so if you want to buy me a coffee and help support the show just click on the link at the very bottom of the description.
