  • #215 Jian Wong Yen – Building Cold Nips and Hitchhiking Europe on €10 a Day

    This week I sat down with Jian Wong Yen, the founder of Cold Nips and a true social entrepreneur who has built one of Australia’s largest and most inspiring wellness movements.


    We dive into Jian’s upbringing and personal journey to creating a community that’s not just about cold water dips, but about connection, resilience, and fun. He opens up about the lessons he’s learned along the way, and how small actions can create big ripples in culture and wellbeing.


    One of my favourite parts of this chat is when Jian shares the wild adventure he had with his girlfriend — hitchhiking across Europe for months on just 10 euros a day. The stories are hilarious, humbling, and remind us that joy and growth often come from living simply and saying yes to the unknown.


    This episode is a mix of entrepreneurship, adventure, and community building — and it’s full of practical takeaways and entertaining stories that will leave you inspired to lean into life a little more.


    We talk about:

    • Jian’s upbringing and what shaped his entrepreneurial spirit
    • The story behind starting Cold Nips and how it grew into a massive wellness movement
    • Why cold water and community go hand-in-hand for mental health
    • His hitchhiking adventure across Europe with just €10 a day
    • Lessons in simplicity, resilience, and creating impact


    If you enjoy this episode, make sure to share it with a friend who loves adventure and wellness ✨

  • #214 Tim O’Sullivan — From Hangovers to Hustle — The Entrepreneur Behind Bae Juice

    This week’s episode is all about the raw, real, and often unpredictable journey of entrepreneurship. I’m joined by Tim O’Sullivan, the founder of two hugely successful lifestyle brands: Bae Juice, the Korean pear juice designed to prevent hangovers, and Andie, the tanning gummies making waves in the beauty and wellness space.


    Tim shares the behind-the-scenes of what it’s really like to build businesses from scratch — the wins, the failures, and the lessons you can only learn by diving in headfirst.


    We chat about:

    • The wild idea that sparked Bae Juice and how it grew into a cult product across Australia
    • Pivoting into the booming health & beauty industry with Andie Gummies
    • The highs and lows of being a young entrepreneur and what keeps him moving forward
    • Building brands people genuinely love (and have fun with)
    • The importance of resilience, creativity, and community when you’re chasing big ideas


    This is a conversation for anyone who’s ever thought about starting their own business — or just loves hearing the real stories behind the brands we see on the shelves. Tim’s journey is proof that entrepreneurship isn’t just about the product, it’s about the person who dares to bring it to life.

  • #213 Brayden Ainsworth - AFL Career, Eating Disorder Recovery & Mental Health Mission

    This week’s conversation is a powerful reminder that success isn’t just about what happens on the field — it’s about how we navigate the challenges off it.


    Brayden Ainsworth burst onto the AFL scene with the West Coast Eagles, chasing a childhood dream and experiencing the highs of professional sport. But behind the scenes, he was battling something few people knew — an eating disorder that was slowly taking its toll on his body and mind.


    In this raw and vulnerable chat, Brayden opens up about:

    • The reality of life as a professional AFL player
    • His personal struggle with an eating disorder and the path to recovery
    • Finding purpose beyond sport through his work with The Happiness Co. as a mental health educator
    • Why vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness
    • How he’s now helping others prioritise their mental wellbeing


    This episode is deep, honest, and inspiring — a conversation that shines a light on the courage it takes to ask for help, the resilience to rebuild, and the joy of finding a new purpose.


    If you’ve ever faced your own mental health challenges or know someone who has, Brayden’s story will leave you feeling hopeful and connected.

    This episode is all about what responsibility means to me. I share my personal definition, how it’s shaped my life and career, and the role it plays in how I show up for myself and others.

  • #212 Dr. Tyler Panzner PH.D. — Your DNA Holds the Key to Better Health!

    In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Tyler Panzner for the second time! He is a PhD scientist, personal health optimisation coach, and expert in genetic and DNA testing. This conversation will blow your mind if you're interested in taking your health into your own hands.


    Dr. Panzner breaks down the science of how our genes influence everything from the way we metabolise food, to our mental health, stress resilience, sleep quality, and even how we respond to supplements. But don’t worry—this episode isn’t just for science nerds. Tyler makes the world of personalised health feel empowering and accessible.


    We talk about:

    • The basics of gene and DNA testing (and why it’s becoming so popular)
    • How personalised health data can help you make smarter lifestyle choices
    • Common gene variants that affect mood, sleep, energy, and focus
    • Why "bio-individuality" matters more than ever in wellness
    • What to look for in a quality DNA test
    • The link between genetics, mental health, and daily habits


    This is the kind of information I wish we all learned in school—because when you understand your body at a deeper level, you can work with it instead of against it.


    Whether you're an athlete, a wellness nerd, or someone who just wants to feel better—this conversation is full of insights that could change the way you think about health.


    🎧 Tune in and learn how to unlock your DNA to unlock your potential.

  • #211 Lachie Henderson — From AFL Star to Diamond Dealer – Life After 200+ Games

    Lachie Henderson played over 200 games of AFL across a 14-year career with Brisbane, Carlton, and Geelong. Picked up at #8 in the 2007 draft, Lachie made a name for himself as a reliable key-position player—kicking goals, holding down defensive roles, and consistently showing up in finals footy.


    But this episode isn’t just about what happened on the field.


    Since retiring in 2021, Lachie’s stepped into a completely new world—co-founding a luxury diamond business, Chadwick Hill, with his wife, Rebecca. From elite sport to entrepreneurship, this chat is a deep dive into identity, resilience, reinvention, and backing yourself in unknown territory.


    We talk about:

    • Growing up and chasing the AFL dream
    • The emotional highs and lows of professional sport
    • Navigating trades, injury, and retirement
    • Starting a diamond business with his wife and what he's learned
    • The importance of values, teamwork, and mindset in life after sport


    This is a refreshing and honest convo about letting go of one chapter and embracing the next with purpose.
