The Brian Keane Podcast

George Bryant went from a homeless kid, to a bulimic Marine with PTSD, to a New York Times bestselling author and 7-figure entrepreneur. His podcast The Mind of George reaches millions. In this episode we go deep on emotional regulation, letting go of the past, and why mindset without tactics - or tactics without mindset, will both leave you stuck.

Kate Hamilton is a health and fitness coach, personal trainer, podcast host, and busy working mum of three with a huge social media following (more than half a million across all platforms).

She brings honest, down-to-earth energy to everything she does, speaking about the realities of creating balance across health, mindset, and business.

In this episode, Kate opens up about the obsession that fuelled her early grind, the panic attacks she didn't talk about, mom guilt, managing energy across family and training, and what it really cost her to build the life she has. We get into where discipline ends and self-destruction begins, why she chose peace over power, and what sustainable high performance actually looks like when you stop grinding and start building smarter.

Ian Clark is the CEO of Activation Products, a business built to inspire people to strive for perfect health.

At 46, Ian's health started to unravel completely — he had a large tumor near his colon and prostate, significant heart disease, and his liver went off the rails.

He was also coming out of a business bankruptcy at the time. He was told he had roughly 1,000 days left to live.

He asked his doctor to hold off on surgery for three months and gave himself that time to find a natural path. He started researching everything he could on nutrition and superfoods, completely changed his diet, and began rebuilding from the ground up.

He is also the host of the show Younger Than Yesterday Podcast, available everywhere podcasts are found.
