In this conversation, Dorcey shares her vibrant and eclectic upbringing in Manchester, discussing the influences of her family and the challenges she faced, including OCD and the impact of her parents' relationship. She reflects on her journey of self-discovery, particularly after the loss of her father, and the importance of therapy in her healing process. The discussion also touches on the medical profession's approach to mental health, the unique challenges faced by men, especially during postpartum periods, and the creation of supportive spaces for men to express their feelings. Dorsey emphasizes the power of communication and community in navigating mental health struggles.

In this episode, Dr. Hannah Korrel unpacks her journey from a structured military upbringing to becoming a neuropsychologist devoted to understanding the human mind. She shares how anxiety shaped her path, why neurodiversity must be understood rather than judged, and how early detection of mental health challenges can change the trajectory of a life.

This conversation goes beyond labels and diagnoses. We explore vulnerability as strength, emotional regulation as a learned skill, and the silent ways mental health impacts relationships, leadership, and workplace culture. Dr. Korrel offers grounded, practical tools for building fulfillment through better sleep, intentional nutrition, consistent physical movement, and honest emotional communication.

If you want a deeper understanding of how your brain shapes your behavior, and what you can do about it, this episode delivers clarity, science, and real world application in equal measure.

"I had a couple of drinks and the noise stopped... and that is how alcoholics are born."

We often think of addiction as the guy under the bridge, but what about the successful leader who drinks to "unwind" every single night? Rick Coluccio is a former music producer turned Recruitment Leader (Host of Recruiting EQ) who lived the "rockstar" lifestyle until his liver almost failed at 19.

In this episode, Rick peels back the layers on "High-Functioning" addiction. He explores how we swap one vice for another (alcohol for work, food, or sex) not to have fun, but to soothe an internal scream that we refuse to hear.

In this episode, expect to learn:

• The "Soothing" Trap: Why addiction isn't about the substance; it's about using external things to manage internal emotions.

• The Generational Curse: Growing up in a house of normalized depression and how to break the cycle.

• Swapping Vices: How you can be "sober" but move your addiction to sex, food, or work.

• Corporate Masks: Why the higher you climb in leadership, the more fake the people around you become.

"I was a millionaire at 30... and I was fking miserable."**

Most men think that if they just get the money, the body, or the status, the internal noise will stop. Craig Harper is living proof that it won’t.

Craig isn't just an Exercise Scientist and PhD Researcher; he is one of Australia’s leading high-performance coaches and the author of seven books. But before the accolades, he was an obese kid nicknamed "Jumbo," and later a highly successful entrepreneur who found himself empty at the top.

In this episode, we dismantle the "Success Trap." Craig explains why your body physically believes the lies you tell it (creating chronic stress) and how to rewrite your internal operating system for genuine fulfillment, not just achievement.

Expect to learn:

• The "Arrival Fallacy": Why reaching your goals often leaves you feeling emptier than before.

• The Biology of Stress: How your internal story is physically keeping you in "fight or flight."

• Real Transformation: Moving from "knowing" what to do, to actually doing it.

In this episode, Ian sits down with Dr. Greg Linkowski, a retired diagnostic radiologist, life coach, and author of Dare to Thrive.

Greg describes himself as a "piece of work" and a "work in progress." But his story is one of profound resilience.

We go deep into his life from growing up in a home defined by his father’s WWII PTSD to the crushing heartbreak of losing his son, David, to a rare developmental disorder.

This isn’t a conversation about toxic positivity. It’s about "blissful combat" in marriage, the reality of grief, and how to transform your wounds into wisdom.

If you are walking through a dark valley right now, Greg’s perspective on faith and perseverance is the light you need.

Most guys don’t learn to talk until after something breaks.

Alex “Sheep” didn’t wait that long.

At 27, he’s already doing the emotional work most men never got shown. He grew up in a home where being honest about how you feel was actually normal and it changed everything. In this conversation, Ian and Sheep talk about the value of learning emotional tools early, the kind of friendships that hold you steady and how much smoother life can feel when you’re not constantly suppressing what’s real.

Only few men get to know those emotional tools early. If you didn’t, the GMHGM App is a good place to start - tap in!

He’s spent 25 years saving lives on Bondi Beach — but the biggest rescue came when he learned how to calm his own mind.

In this episode, Ian Williams sits down with Bondi Rescue lifeguard Dean Gladstone to talk about what it really means to find peace in the middle of chaos. Dean opens up about growing up with anxiety and learning challenges, recovering from a brutal assault and discovering the power of breathing right. Together they explore fatherhood, brotherhood and the quiet strength that comes from understanding yourself.

If you’ve ever felt restless, overwhelmed, or just caught in the current of life, this conversation is a reminder that real calm isn’t found on the beach… it’s built within. And you’ll be hard-pressed to find a man more centered and easygoing than Dean. 😉

“You can’t coach crisis. You have to build from the foundations first.”

David “Mindset Soldier” Smith grew up in chaos: abuse, addiction, neglect and a care system that felt more like a prison than protection. He found structure in the military, faith in Jesus and a relentless discipline that turned his pain into purpose. Today, he helps men build boundaries, reclaim self-respect and create lives that won’t break.

We talk about:

• Growing up in fear, bouncing through foster homes and abuse
  

• The military’s role in discipline, resilience, and gratitude
  

• Why “matching energy” keeps you stuck in chaos
  

• Building non-negotiables to stay alive and grounded
  

• Loneliness vs. solitude: the growth hidden in silence
  

• Breathwork and journaling as tools to rewire your nervous system
  

• Parenting with presence and breaking generational trauma
  

• Finding peace, purpose, and freedom through faith This one’s a raw look at survival, healing, and standing firm in who you are... A must-listen if you’ve ever felt alone or out of control.
