Today, I sit down with Jord Cuiper to talk about redefining what success means as he shares his bone chilling story about how he almost died in the pursuit of success. Following being put into a medically induced coma  then  stepping down as the CEO of his company to recover, he committed himself to the path of integrity — adhering to what he knows at the deepest level is right and true.

Jord is an Integrative Executive Coach with over ten years of experience in the field of entrepreneurship and coaching. From playing top levels of sport, to building a fast-growing startup company, to living through failure, abuse, the loss of my his friend, and a severe break down of my health, he focuses his life now on showing others how to actualise their potential & truth.

In this episode we will unpack everything from how to give ourselves fucking permission to rest, to awakening to the NONSENSE that we have made our reality, to rebuild our nervous system after trauma, to redefining what success looks like each one of us and ...

HOW we live OUR life not the life of someone else, not the safe life or the life we thought we were supposed to live!!

In this episode, we are going to unpack BOUNDARIES and talk about why they are so important and so scary. We will the review 5 different types of boundaries and my 3 strategies on how to set a boundary -1) THINK IT 2) LOCK IT 3) TALK IT

Today, we welcome Aaron Darko to talk about fitness, relationships, entrepreneurship, and finding a sense of self. 

Aaron is an entrepreneur helping other entrepreneurs optimize their health through his infamous 5-Step Health Mastery System. His philosophy is that  health should be simple and effortless. After 27 years of not placing any real importance on health, he turned my life around. He is passionate about helping others to get to that level where health is just automatic and easy for them. His specialty is working with entrepreneurs to help them master their health for the rest of their life so they can look and feel younger and have all day energy to perform at their peak everyday.

While health, wellness and fitness are Aaron’s passion, his top love is relationships. Come join our discussion talking about the importance of all types of relationships, authentic connection, fitness, being too results driven, taking the masks off, vulnerability, confidence and much much more!

Connection is the most amazing thing on this planet. All "good" things come through connection and all "bad" things come through disconnection or the fear of losing connection. Connection the essence and most literal definition of yoga, not just the yoga that we see on a mat making shapes/asanas but the practice of yoga that is a practice to connect deeper to our true self and in return maybe we connect deeper to everything else around us.

In this episode, we will dive into my journey to connection of a sense of self and the power connection has in each one of our lives.

The journey to create this podcast had been a long one full of all the standard trials and tribulations that come with a heart creation. From the pure beauty the concept of the creation to all the ways perfectionism creeps in and creates a year plus of procrastination.

From what do I call to I need all the right equipment to how do I separate audio file from a video file (which is actually quite easy) to figuring out the "perfect" name...

Here we are with 'Being (hu)MAN with Chris Walker'. Originally, I was going to call this podcast Being a Real Man, but I realised that so much of my journey in trying to be the man that I want to be versus the man that I thought or was told I was supposed to be are not just "man/men" issues they are huMAN issues.

So here we go. Let's talk about being human, and not just any human, but the human being you truly want to me, the human being you truly already are. 

Today, we launch EPISODE 1 of 'Being (hu)MAN with Chris Walker', and we will dive into Man's Search for Meaning, the epic book by Viktor Frankel depicting life in the World War 2 Nazi concentration camps. We will then dive deeper into a beautiful concept the he explores; what is the task that makes life worth living. I will share part of my journey of living life without true purpose or true meaning and how I change my life from a 60-70 hour a week corporate hustler focused of success with no capacity to connect to myself and thereby had no capacity to truly connect to anyone else.

Today, I am honored to sit down with one of two people I refer to as 'My Teacher', the incredible Janet Stone. Always a student, Janet has immersed herself in the ancient practices of yoga for over thirty years. As global yoga teacher, she shares the teachings from the heart. Through curiosity, devotion, and dedication she creates a unique approach to living yoga. She shares from the depth of her own sadhana (sustained practice), her studentship in the eight-limbed path, her creative approach to asana, and her reverence for bhakti (devotional, heart-centered yoga, including chanting mantra).

In this conversation we will dive into the beauty that is this practice of yoga, a practice of connecting to our true selves, atman. We will explore her journey to the mat in her teenage years through all the beauty and trials and tribulations of life.
