Kombisations with Pete

Goerge lives in the State of Miami, so this weeks podcast has only one of us in the kombi but lived up to all my expectations.

George talks about the way he uses mind tricks to help him get distracted and pass time more quickly during his long planks.

He’s an ex Marine and DEA agent with a tendency to want to test the rules and make life a little more interesting. We finish off with a quick chat about COVID, the vaccines, and of course TRUMP.

An inspiring chat with Nige about the big challenges he has faced over the past 5 or 6 years and particularly how even the doctors are amazed he wasn’t killed by the heart attack he endured, which included a full blockage of the LAD (widow maker).

We talk about his divorce, his kids, the new love of his life and how none of these setbacks have stopped him from competing in Ironman triathlons with the long term goal still, of doing the iconic Hawaiian Ironman.

Previous guest on the podcast, Matt White described Nige as one of the nicest guys you could meet, which I can confirm after our friendly and open chat. He rocked up to my beautiful Kombi “Ruby” and greeted me with a beaming smile and a warm handshake and this continued with a really open and warmly genuine kombisation.

MASTERS OF CHANGE 29 * 26th APRIL 2024

So much to say about Paul, he has not only survived two heart attacks over 20 years but is a true Master of Change after leaving his family business and becoming self employed.

He’s a pilot, a family man and much much more. Join me as I uncover so much more about this passionate driven man, family man and ex pedicab driver.

MASTERS OF CHANGE 28 * 16th APRIL 2024

Mark “Kirts” Kirtland joins me this week for my first official podcast conversation in Ruby, my adorable 1974 Kombi. We sat in Ruby at the beach here in South Australia, with the wind and waves in the background, and chatted for over an hour about Mark’s incredible resilience and determination to overcome many health issues and injuries and achieve sporting and business success, but most importantly maintaining family balance.

Kirts is a highly organised and driven man, and believes much of his success is due to good planning and a high level of resilience. I delve deep into this side of Kirts and he very genuinely and openly talks about is health issues as well as the amazing change to his life when he was reunited with his son.

MASTERS OF CHANGE 27 * 9th FEBRUARY 2024

Animal Doctor, Mountaineer, Waterman, Bagaule, Ironman: Brendan Batt is the latest guest on the podcast and he really is one of the most adventurous and passionate guest to have a chat on the Masters of Change podcast.

We dive deep and talk about his heart attack that began at the start of his first ever triathlon, The Texas Ironman. His recovery has been astounding and proves that all heart attack experienced people can get back to full power and get back to setting their high goals and continue their passionate driven lifestyle.

He lives in New Orleans and loves to go deep dive fishing, he surfs, he loves high altitude climbing and it seems his thirst for adventure is limitless.

MASTERS OF CHANGE 26 * 27th NOVEMBER 2023

This week I chat to a lifelong friend of mine, Wayne Copley, about the lead up to his Quadruple bypass. Wayne is extremely honest about how he blissfully and stoically ignored the numerous warning signs that a possible heart attack was only around the corner.

We discuss these signs and delve further into Wayne’s belief that perhaps he was destined to have this happen due to genetics and that maybe there was no way to avoid it. Wayne is an extremely lucky man, and could have died at anytime during a 4 week period where, in my opinion, he was literally flouting with death. If things had progressed any further, whilst he was on an aeroplane to Darwin, in the car on a trip to Mildura or whilst playing cricket, Wayne would not be here to tell his story.

MASTERS OF CHANGE 25 * 7th NOVEMBER 2023

A very special chat with Sprint Paramedic Corinna Koch, she lead the team that saved my life from a major cardiac arrest. This is about the real battle with death, after having my heart stop and being brought back to life, to then face the battle to get to hospital to have life saving surgery.

In the back of the ambulance, clinging to life, I knew I was in trouble , and perhaps at best was a 50/50 chance of surviving this major attack that literally came from no where. I was counting the seconds and savouring every laboured shallow breath, two strong thoughts kept me in this game of life. Firstly, I had NO REGRETS, secondly , I want to keep living this way for another 20 or 30 years.

Todays podcast with this amazing person who saved my life, details this confronting experience I had and my battle and desire to live, to not only live but to continue my journey to become the person Im meant to be and to live life to the fullest.

My good friend Joe returns to the podcast for a fantastic chat about his interesting journey over the past year. We talk about relationship breakups, Femininity and Masculinity, Marriage, What Women Want, Fitness & Fasting, How to Keep a Long Term Relationship Interesting, Mistakes Men Make and much much more.

Hes working hard to build his Sour Dough business and to re-establish a relationship with the girl he loves. He has been reading books and working in the gym in order to find his purpose again and to become the person and man hes meant to be.

He highly recommends the book ” How to Be a 3% Man” by Corey Wayne.

A really rewarding day, sorry for the 10 minute 5min Monday but I wanted you to actually hear the audio recordings I did throughout the day. Other than that, no phone usage, phone on Airplane mode, no music or podcasts, entirely on my own with no agenda.

I went through the whole cycle of excitement, negativity, acceptance, calmness, chlllness, getting into the “zone”, and a sense of achievement. 12 hours later and 60 kms I became so relaxed and had such a feeling of clarity.
