Ever feel like you’re moving fast… but not really getting anywhere?

I discuss what I’ve learned from constantly rushing - in work, life, relationships, business, and even this podcast, and how slowing down completely changed the way I approach everything.

I used to think that being quick meant I was doing well... That speed meant progress.... But the truth is, I was just running on stress, people-pleasing, and fear of falling behind.

If you’re ambitious, busy, or just tired of feeling behind, then this one’s for you.

Ever looked at your life and thought, “It’s… fine”? Not bad, not great, just a steady seven out of ten?

I sit down with George Hearn to talk about what happens when “fine” starts to feel like a trap. We explore the region beta paradox . That strange comfort zone where things aren’t painful enough to force change, but not fulfilling enough to make you happy either.

George opens up about his shift from a conventional corporate career to pursuing something more aligned with who he actually is. We unpack the reality of making that change, the self-doubt, the fear of losing stability, and the surprising peace that comes with being intentional about your choices.

What does it really mean to create a ten out of ten life, not a perfect one, but a fulfilled one? One built on self-reflection, small consistent actions, and the courage to question whether “good enough” really is.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re coasting, or you know there’s more waiting beyond your comfort zone, then this conversation is for you.

What happens when the game ends... and the person you’ve always been no longer exists in the same way?

I sit down with Oliver Hoskins, former professional rugby player, Wallaby, and now high-performance coach, to talk about one of the biggest challenges any athlete faces: life after sport.

Oliver opens up about the emotional rollercoaster of retirement, from the moment he realised his rugby journey was coming to an end, to redefining who he is beyond the pitch. We talk about the identity shift that comes with stepping away from something you’ve devoted your life to, and how he’s channelled that energy into helping others, self-reflection, and helping others perform at their best.

This isn’t just a conversation about rugby. It’s about transition, mental health, and rediscovering fulfilment when the structure, routine, and noise fade away. Oliver shares stories from his time with the Wallabies, London Irish, and Saracens, lessons he’s learned about preparation, mindset, and perspective, and how he’s finding peace and purpose in this next chapter.

If you’ve ever gone through a major life change, a career shift, a loss of purpose, or a reinvention of who you are... Oliver’s story will hit home. This is a conversation about letting go, starting again, and learning that identity isn’t something you lose, it’s something you keep evolving.
