Diving deeper from my first podcast, "The Truth About Lying - Part 1."

Pull up a chair for this chat with Elan Schnider and uncover the secrets behind his rise to success, notably achieved without a University degree. Join us as this self-taught entrepreneurial genius shares his journey, offers insights into entrepreneurship as a form of creative expression, and recounts the exhilarating challenges of hosting his debut festival, Meidum – an event so mega, it nearly aged him overnight!

We all, at some point, deviate from the truth. Whether it's to dodge embarrassment, conceal mistakes, embellish achievements, or make over-optimistic promises, dishonesty sometimes seems to be hardwired into our interactions. We craft these narratives to shield ourselves or others from discomfort. But if deceit is so intertwined with our daily lives, should we simply accept it?

This week with Dr Michele Vanzaghi, we chat about life with one testicle and the transformative impact of overcoming cancer. We discuss his shift from a medical doctor to the realm of aesthetic medicine, which ties so wonderfully into why we LOVE Botox, and we try to understand 'attractiveness' and beauty trends.

Get to know neuroscientist and brain performance coach, Nicole Vignola a little better. Nic tells us about her upcoming book "Rewire" which is focused on rewiring narratives and mindset changes. We chat post-festival recovery tips (I HAD TO ASK!), brain health supplements, and 3 simple tools you can use to navigate life better.

Listen up as we get to know the model, the myth, the legend – Marcel Van Der Merwe! 

Our conversation covers his journey in the fashion industry, inclusivity, and our obsession with beautiful people. For a topic that's superficial, we went pretty deep.

Do platonic friendships exist (can you have platonic friendships with the sex/gender you're attracted to)? Is friendship still possible in the midst of sexual chemistry and attraction? Questions, questions, questions! Let's explore and hopefully come to some answers.

As per ushe this poddy delivers way more than the title.

This week with Mathew Neilson, our dear sweet Methuselah. We dive head first into a conversation on the nervous system, our coping mechanisms, the benefits of somatic release (neurogenic tremoring) and also a sidebar convo on how forgiveness can be overrated and boredom is good for us!
A disclaimer - there were some sound issues that resulted in me editing the podcast 3 TIMES. Okay!? So – I did my best. It tweaks here and there because I ran it through an AI software called “ClearVoice” - terrible (don’t waste your bucks), and while it may have fixed tonnes of plosive sounds, being artificial intelligence lacking human ears, it also cut some other odd things (not many but like maybe 4-5 instances). THAT said, this conversation was seriously too good to abandon (I edited it 3 times, let that be a testament to how determined I am to share it)

Alright. I could have worked on this episode for a year straight before ever feeling like I did it justice.

Instead, I've mashed all my thoughts into a longer-than-usual solo episode discussing why I want my partner to pay me one million rand for every baby I pop out.

It's a standpoint dripping in privilege, but more than that, I'm hoping it'll offer a different way of seeing things, or at the very least get a conversation going.
