Will Smith said:   "Too many people spend money they haven't earned, to buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like"   This episode I interview Will Smith. Nah jokes, could you imagine?   This quote just sums up this solo episode perfectly.   I'm getting pretty sick and tired of people comparing their lives to other people    "Why does my body not look like that?"   "Why don't I...

Ben, founder of 2 Minute Mates, is yet another dude who's bringing humans together with the aim to have an impact and make a legitimate difference    Rather than helping people when they're suffering, Ben's outlook is to get in and have the conversations before it get's to that point.    In the episode Ben says:   "If we wait for people to speak up, we're never gonna beat this thing"   This resona...

This year for R U OK DAY I ran an event to raise awareness for the rising suicide rates amongst young males in Australia    This was one of the most incredible experiences of my life and I couldn't be more proud of everyone involved.

When did fitness get so many rules and when did it become so fake?    This may shock some of you, however I became a personal training over a decade ago to actually help people (doesn't that just blow your mind?), and It's challenging to be part of an industry which is ruled by fake people sharing false and misleading information. Sure, this isn't everyone, however it's all way too common these da...
