Broden Kelly was one of Australia’s original content creators, alongside his comedy troupe, Aunty Donna, they pioneered success in the online medium.

Sure, the group may have accidentally stumbled across Youtube in search of bigger dreams, their success is no accident. Broden has embraced rejection, resilience and creativity, to become one of our most successful comedy talents.

The real secret to his success? Collaboration, and not just the two recognisable faces you see beside him on his comedy skits, but everyone behind the scenes, who through trust and hard work, have mastered a creative workflow.

Just like Broden, success and contentment can be found in collaboration and moving outside of the ordinary.

Childhood was full of adventure,it never had to be sought out or actively practiced, it happened daily, without thought or much effort, but as we grow the art of adventure begins to shrink.

 

Beau Miles wanted to keep the magic of childhood and adventure in his everyday, and has managed to carve out a life as a professional adventurer, combining his work as a filmmaker and his love of play.

 

Beau believes that adventuring is a personal challenge, and requires us to step out of our comfort zone to embark on an adventure, but they don’t have to be big or complex to be worthwhile.

 

Although Beau’s adventures have consisted of running a marathon in a hotel, and running abandoned railway lines, and has led to him amassing a global audience on Youtube, he will inspire you to inject more play, curiosity and adventure into your own life.

After debuting for the Australian Diamonds at just 18 years of age, and an illustrious career with the Melbourne Phoenix and Melbourne Vixen, Bianca Chatfield knows what it takes to be a great team player.

 

She credits her time on the bench, learning from the senior players and a devoted coach to the success she had during her career, and instilling the leadership qualities she employs today.

 

Although female athletes are significantly underpaid compared to their male counterparts, and a part of sport she would like to see evolve, she’s also grateful for the lessons in entrepreneurship and hustle that came with the pay check.

 

Bianca teaches lessons on building culture,leading the way in female sport, and being a great team mate both on and off the field, even when you’ve hung up the netball dress for the final time.

Do you have space in your life? Not time, but space. Space to think, reflect, imagine. 

 

After almost burning out in his 30s, Daniel Sih experienced a needed wake-up call, which saw him become a productivity expert and a ‘spacemaker’, advocating for creating meaningful space in our lives. 

 

Daniel is a firm believer that the best leaders and assets in any community and corporate environment are those that take the time to think, rather than those that book back-to-back meetings, and are fast responders to emails.

 

Living an intentional life starts with making space, and Daniel is here to share his insights to help you get started.

We watched with bated breath, as Ariarne Titmus touched the wall ahead of Katie Ledecky - considered by some to be the greatest female swimmer of all time, but it was far from luck on the day that cemented Ariarne’s name in the history books. 

 

From early on in her life, Arnie had learnt the relationship between hard work and success, a value instilled by her parents that helped forge her path to becoming one of Australia's greatest swimmers.

 

Paired with her coach, Dean Boxall, their unique relationship built on brutal honesty, shared standards, and unwavering trust, has been the ‘key’ in unlocking the fierce competitor.

Beyond the glory is humility, a love for family, and a passion which extends past chasing the black line. 

 

Now on a hiatus from swimming, she shares what’s next for her, and if she will be repping the green and gold in LA in 2028.

They first met at a café in Richmond in Melbourne, and Jack and Shane admit, it was connection at first sight. The pair realised straight away that they shared a passion for leadership, growth and a fascination for people and their stories. What began as a professional relationship at the Richmond Football Club, turned into a friendship and partnership co-hosting TWO AM I. And in this final episode of Season 5, Jack and Shane reflect on their guests over the past eight episodes, what they learned from each on nurturing love language, the art of observation and accepting death.

‘Generous, patient and tenacious’ are the three words Des Flanagan says sum him up and always have. Des is a boy from Beechworth in regional Victoria, who found himself performing in the Moulin Rouge kicking a leg, singing some of the greatest love songs ever written and having the time of his life. In his first lead role in a mainstage show, Des spent two years and 10 months playing the lead male protagonist Christian 657 times. His love for the stage began with little concerts with his siblings curated for their parents, until Des realised that family fun was to become his destiny. What followed was years of study at the prestigious Victorian College of the Arts, beginning his career in musical theatre. While Des has starred in Neighbours and a few short films, he’s definitely ruled IN doing some great Australian film work in the future.

When Peggy O’Neal AO emigrated from the United States to Australia in 1991, she had no idea she was about to fall in love with a community and a game that would shape her new life. Perhaps it was fate that she moved to Richmond in Melbourne’s east, donned the local team’s footy jumper, and learnt about footy tipping – all moments that would eventually lead her to become the first woman in AFL history to serve as a club president at the Richmond Tigers. Peggy, who is a superannuation and financial lawyer, broke that glass ceiling but admits there is much more to do and says being deliberate in striving for gender equality in leadership is always front of mind. While sport is one of her passions, education is another – values instilled in her by her parents when she was a child – and she now gives back as Chancellor of RMIT University, and you heard it here first, Peggy is writing a children’s book!
