  • A New Kind Of Matter - Professor Paul Steinhardt - #058

    Professor Paul Steinhardt is a theoretical physicist and cosmologist at Princeton University, Director of the Princeton Centre for Theoretical Science and an author.

    Despite Professor Steinhardt's resume reading like a scientist, today's story is closer to that of a crime detective novel than a research project. Join us on a rollercoaster tale as we travel across the world with Professor Steinhardt and his team in search of a new kind of matter.

    Expect to meet some crafty Russians, an old lady in Amsterdam, a Romanian man called Tim and an asteroid that no one ever new existed.

  • What Does It Mean To Be A Man? Wake Up Warrior - Garrett J. White - #053

    Garrett J. White is the founder of Wake Up Warrior, Creator of Warrior Week & Author of Warrior Book.

    There is turmoil for both men & women on what our gender roles demand of us in modern society with one of the primary questions being "What does it mean to be a man?" Today I'm turning to Garrett for answers as a coach who has helped thousands of men to become an upgraded version of themselves.

    Raw and unfiltered, Garrett has a very intense view of what masculinity means and how men should behave, but behind the brutish delivery is a focus on truth being paramount and taking charge of your personal sovereignty. I'd love to hear your opinions, so drop me a message and let me know your thoughts.

  • How To Use Your Influence - Leon Scott - #052

    Leon Scott is a Semi-Professional Footballer, Model, Influencer and Online Coach.

    The worlds of modelling, football and Instagram aren't often extolled for their virtue or commitment to mindfulness, but Leon is a non-typical member of these groups and is using his platform to promote mental wellbeing to the thousands who follow him.

    Great to sit down with a kindred spirit today. We finally got to discuss how we both feel about having a desire to promote mental wellbeing through our channels and the requirement to balance that with the "game playing" which is needed to be successful online.
