Roll With The Punches

Ok, I may have click-baited you with the title... but I'm immature and quite simply couldn't help it. But that being said, it's relevant to the conversation (just not in the context I bet your mind went to). In this instance Bobby is reflecting on TikTok content he has been observing on social media from people who (supposedly) share his Tourette's diagnosis. He is forced to wonder, are some of these people 'faking it' for the sake of attention, amusement and/or likes?

We also get a big deep around the question of 'what would you like to improve in yourself?' and of course 'why am I the way I am?'. A couple of questions that highlight the ever-present conclusion that there is a rusty and a shiny side to all things in our lives. That our greatest struggles are quite often our greatest gifts or strengths - or in Bobby's words 'every asset is a liability'.

How often do you actually take a moment to consciously feel gratitude?

How often do you express that gratitude to someone who perhaps played a part in you experiencing it?

I know it's something I've had to become conscious of... realising ya'll don't live inside my head and that my internal experiences are mine and mine alone unless I open up and share them. (crazy, I know)

But the benefits of gratitude (and kindness) are widely researched, cited and very much proven to have a very real and very positive effect on our thinking and our emotional (and physical) state. So here I am throwing a little gratitude stone in the pond of humanity and hope it ripples out far and wide. 

Enjoy!

Buckle up for another brilliant conversation with a good friend of mine, Pharrell Shaymar. Back in episode 5 in 2020 Pharrell bravely shared his truth, his life and his identity to the world in a very vulnerable podcast... This has remained an episode very close to my heart and has touched many listeners along the way. 

Well my friends, it's been two years since having Pharrell on the show, so I thought I'd best drag him (he sure wasn't kicking and screaming though) back behind the mic and see what has unfolded in his world. 

From the boxing ring as a very technical and passionate trainer and coach, now to the stage and to life aspiring to understand and assist in the space in, around and everywhere in-between the LGBTQA+ community and the rest of the world.

We talk about how Pharrell's own understanding and experience has evolved in this ever-evolving space and how perhaps we can all better understand and most importantly support those amongst us who are navigating their own personal journeys along the way.

Another beautiful, sometimes vulnerable and perhaps for some, sometimes confronting conversation. 

Big love.

You'll be wearing your positive pants after this episode. You're about to meet Pat McGill.. and it's mighty bloody fortunate for all of us that this is the case, Pat is lucky to be alive to tell the tale he's about to tell. 

One minute cycling along with his mates like any other day, next minute cleaned up by a truck and clinging to life. 

It's been one hell of a journey of recovery and resilience, physically, mentally and emotionally and so to have the opportunity to hear about this straight from 'Positive Pants Pat' himself is an experience I feel very grateful for and I hope you enjoy his story as much as I did.

Dr. Ben Bikman is a Professor of Cell Biology at Brigham Young University whose knowledge around metabolic health has been consumed (sorry, I couldn't help the pun) by hundreds of thousands of people around the world. 

In this conversation we cover all things metabolism and metabolic health, exploring the secret life of fat cells - did you know fat cells can increase in size and replicate in numbers? (me either, but we do now). 

We talk about our relationships with food, the havoc that sugar and processed food can wreak on us (I'm a flag flying chocolate addict and Dr. Bikman is a 'cereal offender') and the measures we put in place to ensure we can keep ourselves in check amidst a potential feeding frenzy. 

We also unpack the role of ketones for the body and brain as a fuel source and the benefits of a ketogenic, fat adapted state. 

I love it when super smart people are also super down to earth and that is definitely the case with Dr. Bikman... Enjoy, I sure did!

Ever wonder what it would be like to go back as 'now you' and have a conversation with 'previous you'? I think about it often... What would I think of her? What would she think of me? Would we like each other?

Wouldn't it be nice if we all knew how to agree to disagree and still love, hear and understand each other and our perspectives?

Oh and did you know Bobby once had (and potentially still does) quite the obsession with the ankle foot complex? He swears it's different to a 'foot fetish'. I think we can be the judge of that.

Quite the fruit salad of topics in today's episode...  a conversational meander through insight and meaningless banter alike. 

Enjoy!

Ever wish you could tap into your potential? Outperform your perceived limits? What creates an athlete's mindset and how does that flow out into other aspects of their lives? 

In this episode I'm riffing on some thoughts I've had around what I experienced around resilience, mindset and growth as a result of stepping (insanely) into the boxing ring to compete at the ripe old age of 29 with ZERO experience in combat sports or anything remotely athletic really.

To what do I attest my grit, growth and stamina amidst the curveballs that life has thrown my way...  

Hopefully some of my thoughts land with you too.

Sarah Rowan is an artist and thought-leader who empowers individuals and organisations to ignite a better future through creativity. As one of Australia’s top Speed Painters, she has lived and breathed the dynamic process of transformation for over 20 years, turning blank walls and cavasses into thought-provoking pieces of art, with limited time and often in front of a live audience. Merging her artistic talent with her passion for public speaking, she has reimagined the role of the artist, pushing the boundaries of a studio-based pursuit into a trail-blazing performance genre that challenges the limitations of time and space.

​Sarah used the process of creative futurism to overcome depression, challenge chronic illness and create a new future for herself and her family. No longer shackled by societal norms, she has stepped into the full power of her truth personally and professionally.

Craig Challen developed an interest in a pretty atypical pastime, cave diving. He became one of Australia's leading technical divers, tacking some of the deepest underwater caves around the world. (Now I'm all for a punch in the face in the boxing ring but underwater cave diving sounds terrifying to me). 

However, fortunately Craig doesn't find this terrifying...

In June and July 2018, a junior soccer team, aged 11 to 16, and their 25-year-old assistant coach, found themselves trapped deep within the Tham Luang cave in Northern Thailand after heavy rainfall partially flooded the cave system on June 23rd. The rescue effort involved more than 10,000 people, including more than 100 divers, scores of rescue workers, representatives from about 100 governmental agencies, 900 police officers, and 2,000 soldiers. Ten police helicopters, seven ambulances, more than 700 diving cylinders, and pumping of more than one billion litres of water from the caves were required.

The boys were rescued by our lad Craig Challen and his dive partner Richard Harris between July 8-10. 

Legit hero!

Hands up if (like me) you occasionally get a little impatient amidst the journey to wherever you're headed. The goal might be business, academia, physical health, financial freedom, spirituality, family or healing. But on our quest towards mastery (in your above area of choice) it seems that managing our own expectations, our own minds, our own processes and our own choices and decisions can be somewhat of a turbulent task along the way. 

Well, if your hand is still in the air then you can lower it down and hit play on this episode as Harps and I delve into conversation about harnessing our inner and outer worlds for a slightly less chaotic ride...
