Last time Axle Whitehead was on, we had so much fun that he and I caught up a few days later for coffee and conversation about all-things psychology, philosophy, spirituality and human behaviour. You know; the small stuff. Well, we went deep and thought we would continue a version of that chat at TYP Central. Here’s what we covered in this episode.. the ‘common denominators’ of successful people, the good and bad of religion, Aussies and their bullshit filter, being in a cult, the challenge of not ‘over-protecting’ kids (so they can build resilience, independence and capability), evolutionary instinct, the value of delaying gratification, tuning in to our Internal Sat-Nav and lots more. Enjoy.

Genevieve Gregson is a three-time Olympian, two-time Olympic finalist, Australian record holder, one-time farm kid, Mum of one who’s married to a two-Olympian (Ryan Gregson). She specialises in the 3,000-metre steeplechase, is thinking about moving up to marathons and in our chat, admitted she’d like to compete up to the 2032 Brisbane Olympics, which could potentially make her a six-time Olympian. Oh, she’s also a Coach, Business Woman and Exercise Physiologist. Genevieve is a great communicator and we covered everything from training, recovery, nutrition, mindset, work ethic and discipline to ageing, biofeedback, financing an athletics career and why giving birth is performance enhancing.

Enjoy.

“You never feel more alive than when someone is trying to kill you.” It sounds strange but, according to Australian Soldier Nathan Bolton, deploying to Afghanistan (twice) and being in combat was simultaneously the best and worst time of his life. This chat was an interesting insight into the mind of a Special Forces Operator who, like many, struggled to leave the war behind when he came home. Fortunately, he is now coming out the other side and helping others to do the same. Enjoy.

The rationale for the title will become apparent through the show. While Unna is always interesting and fun (and this chat was no exception), we spoke, not only about all-things health and wellness (as we do) but this time she opened up about her own personal challenges with body-image, a debilitating eating disorder, seeking approval in the wrong places and living in a toxic environment. Enjoy.

In this conversation, Melissa and I talk about the art of compartmentalising, managing overwhelm, things that have a used-by date (jobs, relationships, projects, lifestyles, habits), work that doesn’t feel like work, the half-way point of my PhD, discovering and designing our optimal operating system and choosing the narrow path (doing what most won’t).

Every so often on TYP, we do a co-share with another podcast that I’ve recently been on. Last week that was Matty Lansdown’s show (How to Not Get Sick and Die) and we did a deep dive on a range of issues pertinent to the living-your-best-life, self-management, human optimisation conversation. Enjoy.
