Episode 6  |  OPULENCE: The Power Of Story

With each new song release I will be taking the opportunity to mould a corresponding podcast to further discuss the meaning and ideas which are mentioned in the music.  

On the 11th of June I released my fourth single for the year titled Opulence. 

In this episode I explore the concept of stories and how coming to a deeper understanding about ‘story’ helped with completing the song, as well as, creating the content for the release. 

I encourage everyone to take the time to think about the story you are creating in everyday life, make sure it’s not being told by someone else and make sure you are comfortable with the direction things are heading in. 

Whatever story you create about yourself and the world will be the frame of reference through which you perceive the world and then take action, so it’s incredibly important to have a positive story which you believe in. 

Choose power, choose gratitude, choose patience, choose love.

Episode 5 | What Got You Here Won't Get You There: The Supapower of AWARENESS.

In this episode I go deep on what’s been guiding my life and overall decision making in the past couple months. It’s been a long slow process of doing less and being more, looking around and realising that ‘what got me here, won’t get me there’ meaning I have to let go off that which no longer serves me, irrational, immature tendencies that need to go in order to be the man I want to be. 

I explain what some of these bad habits are and how I let go of them. I also recap 2 books I’ve recently finished reading and talk about the impact they’ve had on me.

The Alchemist - Paulo Cheolho 
Power vs Force - David R. Hawkins

The Supapower of AWARENESS is something we all possess and have the ability to utilise 24/7, it isn’t a talent by any means but it does take refining and constant use to train. Once your awareness is working for you things change quickly, you see how you affect people more clearly, you notice how people affect you & from there so much changes.

Much love to all, I hope the ideas I explore are able to bring a little joy or optimism to your life, if you have any questions or comments please don’t hesitate to let me know!

Paul has had a roller coaster of a career changing jobs every few years in search of the right fit for himself professionally and for his crown jewel, his family. 

Only recently another chapter was unexpectedly added to the journey when he was made redundant from his long term role at Top Ryde City, but like any good project planner he has created a plan and is only focused on what’s next.

Dad has always been a man of logic and rationale, he believes in taking time to plan and actively pursuing goals which add value to our experience. Whether that’s as professionals in a field or simply as people, there are many simple gems of wisdom that are applicable to all walks of life, such as understanding what it means to be adaptable and how to get there. 

I believe his SUPAPOWER is: LOGICAL PATIENCE. 

His combination of executive thinking mixed with a strong devotion to God lands him right in the sweet spot to handle the mania of having 5 kids & a wife while still running a $700 million shopping centre. 

I hope you enjoy my chat with my Dad.

Much love to all, I hope the ideas I explore are able to bring a little joy or optimism to your life, if you have any questions or comments please don’t hesitate to let me know!

Episode 3  |  Empathetic Intuition w/ Pauline Savelberg (mumma bear)

In episode 3 I welcome my first guest, the one and only, Pauline Savelberg aka Mum.

Mum has had an adventurous life filled with many ups & downs, she’s lived all over Australia, is the eldest of 10 kids and has managed to birth 4 and raise 5 of her own. 

Pauline’s combination of empathy & intuition has allowed her to make friends and be loved by people from all walks of life; she is open, accepting & loving to all. 

Her supapower has always been her ability to make people open up and feel safe in doing so, I’ve seen complete strangers unload their deepest darkest secrets in a matter of minutes.

Her life is raw and her stories are valuable, I hope you enjoy.

Episode 2  |  Becoming An Outsider

With each new song release I will be taking the opportunity to mould a corresponding podcast to further discuss the meaning and ideas which are mentioned in the music.  

At the end of March I released my third single for the year titled Outsider. 

In this episode I explore what it means to be an ‘OUTSIDER’, the type of person who’s not scared to think outside the box or act outside the pack. 

Go against the grain, don’t be afraid to be different, be an Outsider.

Here We Are | Episode 1

I’ve played with the idea of creating a podcast for months now, but finally, Here We Are. In this episode I keep things loose and take the time to air out my thinking behind the podcast name and concept. 

I’ve come to the conclusion that creating an informative & uplifting podcast is the best way I can give back, I don’t have much money but I do have plenty of ideas I'm willing to share. 

I talk about what it means to give back, the reality of generosity and how simple it is to make change if we focus on small increments of improvement.
