#1648 When Failure Isn't Failure - Harps

The You Project ·

2024/09/17

For the most part, failure is a subjective interpretation of an objective outcome. For example... you run 10km in fifty-two minutes and interpret it as a failure because your goal was to run sub fifty minutes and you didn't. Your story is "I failed" and accordingly you ‘feel' like a failure. Your feeling is real and as a result, your literal experience is disappointment, sadness, frustration and maybe even, anger. Conversely, I run the exact same time (52 minutes) and I feel like an absolute

#1647 Building Rapport - Harps & Tiff

The You Project ·

2024/09/16

How do we create connection, rapport and trust with an audience; be it an audience of one or a thousand? And for the guy who talks to humans for a living (me), it won't surprise you to know that this question is never far from my mind. Be it a corporate group, a sporting team, a bunch of students, a flock of academics (not sure about the collective noun for academics) or a bloke called Kevin sitting a metre away, my primary objective is to understand the person or persons in front of me, in order to

#1646 A Brief Coaching Session - Harps

The You Project ·

2024/09/15

This episode is exactly what the title says. Specifically, it's me sharing and unpacking a small collection of practical coaching questions that I have used thousands of times over the years, with everyone from elite athletes, corporate highfliers and first responders to the general public, university students and even, blokes in prison.

#1645 People-Pleasing Is F***ing Exhausting - Harps

The You Project ·

2024/09/14

People-pleasing is a psychological and emotional disease of low self-esteem, insecurity, self-doubt, perceived inadequacy and unworthy-ness. And it's rampant. I encounter it every day and as much as it might surprise you, there was a period of my life when I was a world-class people-pleaser. Driven by a need for approval, social acceptance, popularity, security and group respect, I found myself complying, obliging and conforming out of fear, weakness and insecurity. This episode is a starting point

#1644 Me and Food - Harps

The You Project ·

2024/09/13

It's been a wild ride. Kind of like a tempestuous affair. A relationship of peaks and troughs. Love and hate. Secret eating. Body dysmorphia. Self-loathing. Obsessive behaviour. Guilt. Shame. Lies. Breakdowns, break-ups and thankfully, breakthroughs. In my quest for optimal health, high performance and (let's be real) looking good, food has been my biggest challenge. Specifically, my mindset, choices, habits, behaviours and rituals around food. If you and food also have (or had) an 'interesting'

#1643 Intentional Living - Harps & Tiff

The You Project ·

2024/09/12

My definition of 'Intentional Living' is living on purpose, and in purpose. And for me, living 'on purpose’ means that I am conscious, intentional and strategic about the way I live. It means that my life is not an unintended, unplanned, unconscious or accidental journey, process or outcome. And for me, living 'in purpose' means that the way I live my life is a reflection of my values, morals, ethics, beliefs and goals. These key ideas are the stepping-off point for this conversation with Tiff

#1642 Is Aussie Education Broken? - David Gillespie

The You Project ·

2024/09/11

According to David Gillespie, the Australian education system has never been in a worse state. And this is not some unsubstantiated claim; he walks us through the current reality of education in, not only Australia, but also around the world, and some of the data will fascinate you. We also talk about the charity he created to support and empower Aussie kids to better academic experiences and outcomes. It's called freeschool.org.au and as the name suggests, it's a totally free resource for

#1641 Your Thinking Is Not My Thinking - Blake Eastman

The You Project ·

2024/09/10

"We don't see things as they are, we see things as we are" (Anias Nin). I love this chat about the human condition with Blake Eastman and I love him. Such a great down-to-earth science communicator, with a gift to de-jargon-ise (my new word) and distil, what can be complicated concepts and topics, into relatable and easy-to-understanding stories and language. Like me, he's a Pracademic (an a real Academic). **Blake Eastman is the founder of The Nonverbal Group, his life has been dedicated to the

#1640 WTF Is Self-Transcendence - Harps

The You Project ·

2024/09/09

Yesterday I opened the door on the 'Understanding You' conversation off the back of my weekend Melbourne Workshop (of the same title) where I (not-surprisingly) failed to get through the totality of my intended content. This solo episode is a little workshop-y, so you might want to either (1) give it a miss or (2) get yourself a pen and paper (or something more technologically advanced!).

#1639 Understanding You - Harps (PT1)

The You Project ·

2024/09/08

Today (as I type this, Sunday Sept. 8) I facilitated a public workshop in good old Melbs (called 'Understanding You') and we had a great time, opening the door of consciousness, curiosity, self-awareness and personal transformation. As is often the way, the super-chatty only-child didn't quite make it through everything he wanted to cover (despite talking for more than three hours!), and as a result of my inability to be verbally efficient, I informed the group that I would share some of my

#1638 Mixed Tapes, Rotary Phones & Video Players -...

The You Project ·

2024/09/07

This was another fun chat with Patrick and Tiff, and this time we opened the door on some of our favourite 'old tech', which at the time was groundbreaking and mind-blowing, but looking back through the 2024 window, well.. not so much. As usual, there was an unnecessary amount of silly-ness, banter and bullsh*t, which for some strange reason, some of you seem to enjoy more than the (alleged) 'tech talk'.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#1637 What Are You Wasting Energy On - Carly Taylor

The You Project ·

2024/09/06

Carly Taylor is back chatting about the propensity we humans have to invest time, energy and attention into the things we can't undo, change or control, while simultaneously doing little or nothing to address and/or impact the things which are actually within our influence or control. Weird but also common. This is a very relevant and practical conversation that will resonate with many people. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#1636 Uses For Obsession - Ben Shewry

The You Project ·

2024/09/05

The title of this episode is the name of Ben Shewry's new book. It doesn't really represent the chat but I just loved the title because, over the years I've masterfully (and clumsily) turned my obsession (human behaviour) into a job, a business, a PhD Project, multiple books, a podcast and conveniently, a way to pay a few bills. If you don't know who Ben is, he is one of the most respected Chefs in the world and owner of the internationally renowned restaurant, Attica (it's been in the "World's 50

#1635 The Happiness Guru - Andrew Mathews

The You Project ·

2024/09/04

Happiness, we all want it but how do we 'get' it? Or, do we just 'be' it? How much of 'being happy' is about our mind? Situation? Bank balance? Job? And what is its relationship with things like contentment, calm, joy and the absence of anxiety? Andrew Matthews is an Australian author and international speaker who has sold more than 8 million books in 48 languages, making him one of the world's foremost authorities on the topic of happiness. I really enjoyed connecting with Andrew, and I loved the

#1634 Next To Him, I'm A Runt - Luke Reynolds

The You Project ·

2024/09/03

Luke Reynolds is a Professional Strongman Athlete, Coach, Actor and Commentator and at 6'7" (over 2 metres), he's just 'trimmed down' to a diminutive 150kgs (from 173kg). Now before you think this episode ain't for you, think again. Many of you will find this conversation fascinating for a range of reasons; the training, psychology, preparation, injuries, competition, rituals and science of competing against the strongest people on the Planet, is not a simple (or painless) process.

#1633 The Freedom Fighter - Justin Wren

2024/09/02

I’m tied up today, so I’ve decided to re-share one of my absolute favourite TYP chats. *Here’s the original synopsis.. In seven years of podcasting and twenty years of radio, this conversation is in my all-time top ten. Justin Wren is a both a cage fighter and freedom fighter, who has fought on the world-stage in the UFC and in the jungles of the Congo, championing the cause of one of the most marginalised groups of people in thew world; the Mbuti Pygmies.

#1632 Stop F**cking Waiting - Harps

The You Project ·

2024/09/01

No matter when I talk to some people, today is never the 'change' day. It's always soon. Not now. Not today. Soon. The mystical, mythical, magical... soon. Sadly, some people have been waiting for the right time for years. They are the 'almost brigade'; almost making the necessary decision, almost taking action, almost doing the work, almost using their potential, almost creating positive change but actually, doing f**k all. And then one day they mysteriously ask "how did my life end up like this"

#1631 Reprogramming You - Harps

The You Project ·

2024/08/31

Like it or not, want it or not, you've been programmed. By life. Family. Friends. School. Culture. Religion. Society. Media. Social media. Experiences. Interactions. Relationships. In many ways, you weren't taught how to think but rather, told what to think. If you're like most, then many of your beliefs were not consciously chosen (by you) but rather, unconsciously adopted. In other words, their beliefs became your beliefs and you had very little say or awareness in it, or of it. Without knowing or

#1630 Things You Should Stop Doing - Harps

The You Project ·

2024/08/30

Depending on where you're at on your personal growth journey, this episode will sit somewhere on the relevance scale between totally irrelevant (the bottom) through to 'do you have a f**king camera in my house' (top of the scale, pay attention, take notes, re-listen)? This list is a collection of some of the most common self-destructive, time-wasting, talent-wasting, toxic habits and behaviours that I've observed (in myself and others) over the years.

#1629 Addicted 10 Year-Olds - David Gillespie

The You Project ·

2024/08/29

Obviously it's no revelation to suggest that the combination of young kids and vast amounts of time spent on smart phones (and the like) is problematic but it might shock to you know just how bad it is for the developing brain, nervous system, emotional system and mental health of our future grown-ups. Interestingly, one of the UK's largest mobile network providers is now (to their own commercial detriment) advising parents not to buy smartphones for their primary school-aged children. Gillespo
