In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, I sit down with Dr Ellie, longevity expert and wellness strategist, to explore what truly moves the needle when it comes to living longer, healthier, and stronger. We cut through the noise of biohacking trends, supplements, and wellness hype to focus on the fundamentals that matter most: movement, nutrition, recovery, sleep, and muscle.
Dr Ellie shares why biology dictates reality, how small daily decisions shape long term health, and why muscle is the true longevity organ. We also dive into practical habits for better sleep, managing stress, building strength, and creating a lifestyle that supports energy, clarity, and resilience.
We also discuss the rise of GLP-1 weight loss drugs, when they may be helpful, and why no shortcut can replace the power of prioritising your health from the ground up. This is a practical and powerful conversation on building a longer, stronger, and healthier life.

In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, I sit down with Christine Li, procrastination coach and psychologist, to explore why procrastination is far more than just putting things off. We unpack the real cost of delay, how it disconnects us from the present moment, and why it often pulls us away from the path that matters most.
We dive into the emotional roots of procrastination, the role fear and anxiety play in keeping us stuck, and how to recognise when we are quietly moving in the opposite direction of what we truly want. Christine also shares her powerful idea of the “main path” and how fun, expansion, and presence can help us know whether we are heading in the right direction.
Christine breaks down her simple but practical SMACK framework for overcoming procrastination through simplicity, mindfulness, anxiety reduction, communication, and kindness to self. We also explore flow, habits, morning routines, clutter, self trust, and how to build a life that feels calmer, clearer, and more aligned.

In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Monique Andrews, an expert in embodied neuroscience, to explore how the body and brain work together to shape our thoughts, emotions, and performance.
We dive into why you are not a slave to your stress, anxiety, or physiology, and how simple practices like breathwork and somatic tracking can rapidly shift your state and rewire your nervous system.
Dr. Mo breaks down the five core rules of the body, why pain is often an alarm rather than a problem, and how curiosity, not control, is the key to transforming your lived experience.
If you want practical tools to regulate your nervous system, perform under pressure, and take back control of how you feel and show up each day, this episode will give you a great starting point.

In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, I sit down with Caroline to unpack something simple but powerful… your morning routine.
We dive into why your morning sets the tone for your entire day, how habits become hardwired over time, and why most people overcomplicate routines and then struggle to stick to them.
We explore what actually works, from building a routine that fits your lifestyle, to the importance of movement, journaling, and creating discipline over relying on motivation.
If you want a simple, realistic approach to mornings that you will actually follow, this conversation will give you a practical starting point.

In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, you’ll learn what it really takes to perform at the highest level when the pressure is relentless, the stakes are high, and there is no room to hide. Olympian Annie Kunz shares the mindset, habits, and systems that helped her go from talented athlete to Olympic heptathlete, and why mastering your inner world is often the true difference-maker.
We break down the power of mindfulness, journaling, identity, gratitude, and daily repetition. Annie opens up about learning to surrender, how she trained her brain to believe she was an Olympian before it happened, and why your self-image shapes your performance more than you realise. She also shares how to reset after setbacks, stay present under pressure, and build systems that carry you when motivation disappears.
Annie also reflects on life beyond sport, the identity shift that comes when a career chapter ends, and the deeper role faith, purpose, and perspective have played in her journey. She finishes with the habits that ground her each day and a powerful reminder that success is not just about talent, but discipline, commitment, and doing the little things well over time.

In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, you’ll learn how to release the hidden “parking brakes” holding you back by upgrading the beliefs driving your habits, emotions, and performance. Tim Shurr, MA shares his “mind architect” approach and why one simple shift can create fast, lasting change.
We break down how the subconscious influences most decisions, how to uncover blind spots, and two questions you can use to replace limiting beliefs with empowering ones.

In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, you’ll learn how to improve your sleep, recovery, and daily energy without adding more to your routine by tapping into passive infrared textile technology that works in the background. Seth explains how this infrared technology enhances circulation, oxygenation, and thermal regulation just through the clothes and bedding you already use.
We break down the science in plain language — including what infrared does at a cellular level and why increasing circulation matters for performance. Seth also shares how this technology is already embedded in products from major brands such as Under Armour’s UA RUSH performance apparel and Decathlon infrared-enhanced training gear.
Finally, we get personal with Seth’s own habits, his approach to wellbeing and coherence, and the advice he’d give for living with purpose and resilience.
If you’re looking for a simple one percent upgrade to your energy, recovery, and sleep, this episode may change how you think about performance.

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with Sam Stubbs, founder of Simplicity, to unpack why simplicity is the ultimate performance advantage. In life. In leadership.

- The hedonistic treadmill, why more money stops adding happiness, and why giving feels better than getting
- Why money is simpler than the finance world makes it look, and the two hour fundamentals anyone can learn
- The hidden power of fees, compounding, and why long term investing beats chasing short term performance
- How KiwiSaver could fund New Zealand’s future, from infrastructure to housing, and what it means for the next 30 years

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with Dr Jack Groppel, co founder of the Human Performance Institute, to explore the hidden cost of achievement, and what it really takes to win in your career without losing yourself and the people you love.
What we cover:
- The “watch me” drive, people pleasing, and how early approval seeking fuels ambition
- Why world class achievement can mask insecurity, and the personal cost of always saying yes
- Boundaries as a leadership skill, and the simple filter: what matters most right now
- Adoption and fatherhood, and the two weeks in China that reshaped his definition of success
- Mountains Within, and how to pursue meaning alongside achievement, not after it
If you’re driven, ambitious, and constantly chasing the next goal, this conversation will help you zoom out, reset your definition of high performance, and lead your life with more purpose, presence, and integrity..

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with Chris Naugle to unpack why money feels awkward for so many people, and how to shift from scarcity and stress into clarity and control.
What we cover:
- Why money feels scarce, and how wealth starts with creation and solving other people’s problems
- Rich vs wealthy, and why looking successful often means living on credit and giving it all back
- Giving as a practical money habit, including Chris’s “donation letters” exercise to rewire abundance
- The “be your own bank” concept, and how to recapture interest and recycle cash flow instead of feeding banks
- Investing and big purchases through a new lens, only back what you understand, avoid chasing high returns, and treat cars like a system not an expense
If you’ve ever earned well but still felt behind, anxious about money, or unsure why it never seems to stick, this episode will fundamentally change how you think about money and how you use it.

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with Cecilia Robinson, serial entrepreneur and Co chair of B416 (Before 16), to unpack what’s driving the youth mental health crisis and what parents can do about it.
- Why is anxiety rising so fast in young people?
- What happens when we over protect kids in the real world and under protect them online?
- How do you raise independent, resilient kids in a smartphone first world?
Cecilia shares the mission behind B416, the push to introduce a minimum age of 16 for social media, and the practical parenting principles she uses at home. We also get into her entrepreneurial journey across Au Pair Link, My Food Bag, and Tend, plus how she handles public criticism and stays grounded in the middle of high pressure seasons.
What we cover:
- Why B416 exists, what the movement is trying to change, and why social norming matters for parents and kids
- The biggest compliance issue schools face with phone free rules, and the parental habits that accidentally undermine them
- Cecilia’s approach to parenting for independence, including the TRICK framework and stretching kids with real responsibility
- How she thinks about building businesses, why execution beats ideas, and how problem spotting drives her ventures
- The emotional realities behind leadership, including navigating loss, staying steady under scrutiny, and choosing daily happiness
If you care about parenting, leadership, and protecting childhood in a digital world, this conversation will challenge how you think about screens, responsibility, and what kids actually need to thrive.

I’m breaking down my exact goal-setting system and the annual planning method I use with my private clients to help them stop starting over and actually follow through.
This episode is about clarity, alignment and action. Not hype. Not motivation. And not beating yourself up when things don’t go to plan.
I walk you through the thinking behind my annual reset process and explain how to reflect on the past year without judgement, identify what truly matters, and build goals that are achievable and sustainable.
In this episode, you will discover:
- Why most goal-setting fails before February
- How to review the past year without shame or self-criticism
- A simple way to identify what gave you energy and what drained it
- How to use WMI (What’s Most Important) to prioritise your life and work
- Why belief systems quietly sabotage behaviour and results
- How to narrow your focus to the one goal that matters most right now
- What to do in the next 30 days so momentum actually sticks
- Why high performance is hormonal and how the MEDS framework supports consistency
You’ll also hear about a free goal-setting workbook you can download to work through this process step by step. It’s the same workbook my coaching clients use to reset, reflect and build a clear plan for the year ahead.
If you’ve been setting goals with good intentions but struggling to follow through, this episode will help you slow down, see clearly and take meaningful action.
Because hope isn’t a strategy.
Habits beat hope every day of the week.

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with my partner in life and business, Caroline, for a conversation we usually have off camera.
We look back on 2025 and reflect on what really went well, what didn’t, and the lessons we’ve learned from running a business together while building a life together.
We talk openly about growth, pressure, boundaries, clarity, and why success often looks very different behind the scenes than it does on the outside. We also share a personal update that we haven’t spoken about publicly before.
This episode is honest, reflective, and very real.
What we cover:
- The biggest highs and hardest moments from 2025, personally and professionally
- What running a business together has taught us about communication, boundaries, and trust
- The pressure points that show up when work and life collide, and how we navigate them
- Why clarity is so rare, how distraction keeps people stuck, and what actually helps
- The lessons we’re taking into 2026, and how reflection creates better goals
- A personal milestone that made 2025 one we’ll never forget
If you’re building something meaningful, navigating a relationship alongside ambition, or simply wanting to reflect before setting your next goals, this conversation will give you perspective, reassurance, and a few hard truths you might need to hear.

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with former Olympic Team Physiotherapist and author of The Back Fix, Antony Bush, to explore some big questions.
Why do one in five of us suffer chronic pain?
Why is back pain now the world’s greatest disability?
How does movement and strength shape our pain, happiness and even mortality?
Antony breaks down what it means to be an analog creature struggling in a digital age and how we can reclaim our health through simple, science backed habits.
What we cover:
- Why modern living has turned back pain into the world’s number one disability and how sitting, screens and stress drive chronic pain
- How movement, walking, micro exercise and the Big Six strength moves reduce pain, improve mood and extend lifespan
- How the brain creates pain, why MRIs often show harmless “wrinkles,” and why movement outperforms passive treatments
- The mindset side of recovery, including the wishbone, backbone and funny bone model for resilience and why movement is medicine
If you want to reduce pain, boost your energy and future proof your health, this conversation will shift how you move and how you live.

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with former All American wrestler and high performance coach Jim Harshaw Jr to unpack what it really takes to go from good to great without burning out.
From a blue collar upbringing to the NCAA podium and training as an Olympic hopeful, Jim shares how he rebuilt his entire life through structure, coaching and an environment of excellence.
What we cover:
- Jim’s journey from feeling out of his depth at a top university to becoming an All American, double graduate and Olympic hopeful
- The four part framework for high performance: radical vision, aligned goals, an environment of excellence and a long term follow through plan
- The “miracle day,” billion dollar and funeral exercises that unlock what you really want from life and work
- Why failure is a necessary ingredient for success and how to run a simple review so you actually learn from it instead of shrinking your goals

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with ADHD coach Sharon from The Functional Family to unpack what ADHD really is, why the old labels do more harm than good, and how leaders can create environments where neurodivergent people actually thrive.
With over 20 years of study, formal ADDCA training, and the lived experience of raising three boys with ADHD, Sharon blends science, systems, and humour to turn daily chaos into connection and function.
We dive into executive function, interest based brains, and very practical tools you can use at home and at work.
What we cover:
- Why ADHD is not an attention deficit and why “disorder” misses the point
- The three ADHD presentations and how they show up in everyday life
- Executive function, time awareness and why so many ADHD adults feel like they are always behind
- Sharon’s open, closed and neutral brain model and how it helps with regulation at home and at work
- How leaders can support ADHD team members with strengths based tasks, sprints, body doubling and smart accommodations
- Practical tools including AI and Goblin Tools to break tasks down, reduce shame and build sustainable systems
If we can better understand how different brains work, we unlock potential, deepen compassion and create environments where everyone can win.

What if your team’s biggest problem isn’t what’s said — it’s what’s left unsaid?
In this episode of Lead on Purpose, I sit down with Steven Gaffney, author of Unconditional Power and creator of the CHAT framework for consistently high achieving teams. We unpack why honesty, emotional safety, and proactive communication are the foundations of real performance — not just effort.
We cover:
- The hidden cost of withholding and how to get “the unsaid said.”
- Why emotional safety beats psychological safety every time.
- The five traits of high achieving teams — starting with “team first, position second.”
- How to separate facts from stories using the “Notice vs Imagine” tool.
- The power of reframing problems into opportunities.
- What unconditional power means and how to focus only on what you can control.
You’ll walk away with clear, actionable tools to help your team communicate honestly, perform consistently, and lead with courage and empathy.

What if your health span is shrinking because life got too comfortable?
In this episode of Lead on Purpose, I sit down with Dr Paul Taylor to unpack Death by Comfort. We get practical about ultra-processed foods, protein-first meals, and movement habits that rewire your metabolism, brain, and daily energy. Simple, science-backed tools you can use today.
We cover:
- What ultra-processed foods are, the NOVA system, and why supermarket breads and breakfast cereals often mislead.
- Protein at breakfast, 30 g targets, the 80/20 rule, shopping the perimeter, and keeping “treats” out of the house.
- Movement that changes your biology: myokines, BDNF, lactate-threshold bursts, movement snacks, and post-meal walks.
- Making it stick: match exercise to personality, use if-then rules, and model healthy habits for your kids.

Jamie Kreiner went back 1,500 years to understand your biggest problem today.
In a world obsessed with hacking attention, Jamie didn’t look forward—she looked back.
In this conversation, we explore her book The Wandering Mind and what early Christian monks knew about distraction, productivity, and deep focus that modern science is only just catching up with.
But this isn’t a conversation about history. It’s about attention. It’s about how we can train our minds, structure our days, and create meaning in a world full of noise.
What we cover:
- How monks framed distraction as a life-or-death issue
- Why modern productivity might be killing your clarity
- The ancient mental practice of “discernment”
- The link between mind wandering and spiritual mastery
- Why community, structure, and solitude work together
- How writing, meditation, and “think time” build better leaders
- What monks can teach us about balance, burnout, and being useful
- Why your thoughts aren’t you—and why that’s good news
Jamie doesn’t just bring history to life—she uses it to help us live more fully, more intentionally, and with far greater focus.
If you’ve ever felt scattered, unproductive, or unsure how to slow down, this is the episode for you.

Most leaders know their “why.”
But what if the real power lies in discovering your “because”?
In this episode, I sit down with Mick Hunt, global leadership advisor and founder of Premier Strategy Box, to unpack the deeper drive behind great leadership—and how your “because” can shape every decision you make.
We go deep into:
- Why your because is stronger than your why—and how to find it
- How a promise to his mother at age 10 shaped Mick’s entire life
- The leadership lesson Mick teaches all his clients first
- The 3 traits every elite leader must master
- Why your circle might be holding you back—and how to fix it
- A powerful question he asks world leaders (and would ask the next U.S. president)
This is leadership without the fluff—raw, real, and radically purpose-driven.
💡 Whether you’re leading a business, a team, or your family… this episode will challenge you to get clearer on who you are and what drives you.

What do you do when you're cut off from the world… for over a year?
David Knoff was meant to lead a 12-month Antarctic expedition.
Then COVID hit.

- What war zones and Antarctica taught him about burnout, control, and calm
- The reality of leadership when every plan goes out the window
- What happened when a team member snapped—and how David brought him back
- Why vulnerability, storytelling, and weekly meetings saved the station's culture

This is a masterclass in real-world leadership—far from the safety of boardrooms and business books.

In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with trauma physician and educator Dr. Christy Gibson—author of The Modern Trauma Toolkit—to explore how trauma really works, why it's often missed, and what you can do to start healing.
We unpack why trauma is not what happens to you, but how your body and nervous system respond—and how that response can be changed.
Christy shares practical tools that anyone can use to calm their nervous system, reclaim emotional flexibility, and move toward post-traumatic growth. Whether you're dealing with burnout, chronic stress, or hidden wounds from the past—this conversation offers hope.
Key Topics Covered:
- What trauma really is (and how it hides in plain sight)
- The link between stress, illness, and the nervous system
- How to calm your body using somatic tools
- Signs you're stuck in fight, flight, or freeze
- Simple daily practices to start healing
What makes this conversation different:
Christy doesn’t offer one-size-fits-all solutions. She invites you into a compassionate toolkit that honours your individuality, respects your story, and equips you with flexible paths to healing.

We’re not wired to be this disconnected.
In today’s episode, I sit down with Julia Hotz—award-winning journalist and author of The Connection Cure—to explore why modern medicine is missing a huge piece of the puzzle… and how we can fix it without a single pill.
We dive into social prescribing—a science-backed practice where doctors prescribe movement, nature, art, service, and human connection instead of medication. Julia’s research proves what we’ve known deep down all along: we don’t heal in isolation. We heal through meaning, purpose, and community.
We discuss:
- Why anxiety, ADHD and depression may be responses—not disorders
- The 5 powerful (and often overlooked) ingredients for lasting health
- How social prescribing is helping people heal without medication

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dr. David Karli, a pioneer in regenerative medicine and CEO of Greyledge Technologies, to uncover the truth about stem cell therapy, longevity, and the science that’s transforming how we heal.
Dr. Karli has spent over two decades at the forefront of tissue health and performance medicine—working with elite athletes, entrepreneurs, and everyday individuals to help them recover faster, live longer, and stay stronger.
But here’s the truth: most people don’t know what’s actually going into their bodies when it comes to regenerative medicine. And that’s a big problem.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The wild west of stem cell therapy—and how to avoid dangerous “cowboy clinics”
- Why using your own stem cells is safer and more effective than controversial alternatives
- The science behind orthopedic degeneration—and how to get ahead of it
- The 3 non-negotiables for healthspan and longevity (no pills required)
- How AI and epigenetics are shaping the future of precision cell therapies
Whether you're in pain now or planning for the decades ahead, this conversation is a must-listen. We cut through the hype and get to what really works—based on decades of scientific data, not guesswork.

In this episode, I sit down with one of New Zealand’s most recognisable truth-tellers—journalist, documentarian, and author Patrick Gower (aka PG).
PG is known for hard-hitting headlines, viral soundbites, and a gift for connecting with Kiwis at every level. But behind the viral moments and political showdowns is a man who’s wrestled with identity, addiction, and self-worth—and come out the other side with clarity, conviction, and purpose.
This conversation is part memoir, part manifesto, and part reminder that change is hard—but possible. Especially if you believe in the f***ing possible.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
• The mental trick PG uses to stay focused and optimistic—even in chaos
• What really drove his drinking—and the breakthrough that changed everything
• Why connection (not perfection) is your real leadership advantage
• The outrageous schoolyard scandal that’s somehow still making headlines…
Why You Should Listen:
PG doesn’t sugarcoat anything. He talks openly about the awkward years, the impact of bullying, the heartbreak of redundancy, and the hidden pain behind being the “funny guy” in the room.
But he also talks about growth, about leadership, about mission. And how it’s never too late to start again with purpose.
If you’re navigating change, battling self-doubt, or quietly dreaming of more—this one’s for you.
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll definitely never look at a school lunch the same way again.

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with Grace Andrews—global brand strategist, digital creator, and right hand to one of the most influential entrepreneurs on the planet, Steven Bartlett.
At just 27, Grace has helped shape The Diary of a CEO into a global media force. But what’s even more impressive? Her ability to distill complex brand and content strategy into tactical, human language—and deliver it with heart.
This conversation is part masterclass, part behind-the-scenes access, and part reminder that being “too obsessed” might just be your superpower.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why your personal brand is your digital reputation—and how to shape it with intention.
- The three metrics Grace obsesses over (and why “likes” aren’t one of them).
- How to create content people actually care about (hint: it's not about you).
- The secret to building a team that thrives on pressure, pace, and purpose.
- Why naivety—not experience—was the secret ingredient to building a global podcast empire.
- How to turn a podcast (or any piece of content) into a media flywheel.
Why You Should Listen:
Grace is rewriting the rules of brand building—by actually playing the long game. She’s not following trends, she’s creating them. She’s not trying to be everywhere—she’s focused on being essential.
Whether you're a founder, a marketer, a content creator, or someone trying to get your message to land—this episode will give you the clarity, tools, and mindset to show up online with purpose, strategy, and soul.
And if you’ve ever thought “I don’t have time to post”—Grace has a few thoughts for you.
This episode isn’t just about social media. It’s about attention. And if you want to earn it, this conversation is unmissable.

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with Naomi Ballantyne—one of New Zealand’s most successful entrepreneurs and the first Kiwi woman to sell a company for over a billion dollars.
From humble beginnings in a tiny three-bedroom house with five kids and two parents, to building and leading some of the most innovative life insurance companies in the country, Naomi’s story is raw, riveting, and radically inspiring.
She shares how emotional resilience, relentless curiosity, and a fierce commitment to doing the right thing helped her defy the odds—not once, but again and again.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why growing up in scarcity sparked Naomi’s entrepreneurial fire.
- The mindset that turns adversity into advantage—and pain into power.
- How to lead with humility while building a billion-dollar business.
- What most boards get wrong—and how to fix it.
- The surprising truth about strategy (it’s not what you think).
- Why parenting, not school, is still the most powerful teacher.
Why You Should Listen:
Naomi doesn’t fit the mould—and that’s exactly why she’s been able to break it. She’s built multiple companies from the ground up, challenged a male-dominated industry, and led with heart, grit, and an unshakable sense of purpose.
Whether you’re a founder, a leader, a parent—or someone who’s ever wondered if they’re “good enough”—this conversation will remind you that you don’t have to fit in to make a mark. You just have to show up, stay curious, and never forget who you are.
If you want to lead with purpose—and on your own terms—this episode is unmissable.

In this episode of Lead On Purpose, I sit down with one of the most influential sport leaders in Australasia—Raelene Castle. A trailblazer who has shattered gender norms and led major sporting organisations on both sides of the Tasman, Raelene opens up about the power of sport, the lessons from failure, and what it truly means to lead with purpose.
From growing up in a sports-mad Kiwi household to becoming the first female CEO of an NRL team, Raelene shares her raw journey—including moments of triumph, controversy, and the behind-the-scenes realities of leadership.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- How sport became Raelene’s foundation for resilience, leadership, and inclusion.
- Why failure is a necessary part of growth—and how to bounce back stronger.
- What it really takes to lead in high-performance, male-dominated environments.
- The inside story of the Israel Folau controversy and how values shape leadership.
- How to support young people in sport without crushing their joy or confidence.
Why You Should Listen:
Raelene doesn’t just talk about high performance—she lives it. Her career spans the leadership of Netball New Zealand, the Canterbury Bulldogs, Rugby Australia, and now Sport New Zealand. But beyond the titles, this is a story about courage, integrity, and showing up—even when it’s hard.
If you’re a parent, a coach, a leader, or someone striving to lead with more purpose and less ego—this conversation is a must-listen.

Most people struggle with money—not because they don’t earn enough, but because they don’t know how to use it. If I could go back, here’s what I’d do differently (and what I’d double down on). Whether you’re just starting out or looking to level up your financial game, this episode is for you.
What You’ll Learn:
✅ Invest in Yourself First. The best ROI isn’t in stocks or real estate—it’s in your skills, mindset, and knowledge.
✅ Adopt an Abundance Mindset. There’s always room for greatness. Focus on opportunities, not limitations.
✅ Diversify Your Income. One income stream = high risk. Build multiple to create security.
✅ Put Your Money to Work. Saving alone won’t make you wealthy—investing will. Automate and forget it.
✅ Live Below Your Means. A high income means nothing if you’re drowning in debt. Smart spending = real wealth.

In this episode, I sit down with Shaun Quincey, adventurer, entrepreneur, and the second person in history to row solo across the Tasman Sea. From taking on one of the world’s most treacherous ocean crossings to building a thriving business empire, Shaun’s story is one of resilience, grit, and relentless determination.
Shaun reflects on his journey, the lessons learned from his record-breaking adventure, and how his father’s legacy as the first person to row the Tasman Sea inspired his own pursuit of greatness. We also delve into his transition from adventurer to entrepreneur and the mindset shifts that made it all possible.
We cover:
Shaun’s decision to row 2,200km across the Tasman and the life-or-death challenges he faced on the journey.
The influence of his father’s world-first record and the pressure to forge his own path.
The moment he almost gave up mid-ocean and how he turned fear into gratitude and clarity.
How Shaun built a buy-now-pay-later business from scratch and sold it in a multi-million-dollar deal.
The importance of resilience, routine, and finding purpose in hard work — whether on the water or in business.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on leadership and sharing three powerful lessons I learned from a surprising encounter with a high-profile guest who revealed their true character behind the scenes.
This experience challenged my perceptions of leadership and reinforced the importance of congruence, kindness, and responsibility in positions of power.
Here’s what I cover:
Congruence is Key – Why the best leaders are consistent both on and off camera, and how authenticity builds trust.
Power Dynamics Matter – How leaders can elevate or diminish others through their behaviour and why awareness of this is critical.
Kindness is Leadership – The lasting impact of treating others with respect, regardless of the situation or power dynamic.
Throughout this episode, I’ll explore what this encounter taught me about leadership and the responsibility we all carry, whether in families, workplaces, or communities. I’ll challenge you to reflect on your own congruence and the power dynamics in your life, urging you to lead with empathy and intention.
If you found value in this episode, I’d love it if you could share it with someone who might benefit from these lessons. Let’s create a world where leadership is driven by integrity, not ego.

Why We’re Terrible at Decisions (And How to Fix It)
In this episode, I sit down with Dan Ariely, a renowned behavioural economist, to explore the fascinating world of human irrationality and how understanding it can transform our decision-making, motivation, and overall quality of life.
Dan shares powerful insights into the quirks of the human mind, how our outdated "mental tools" affect modern life, and what it really means to design environments that align with our natural tendencies.
In this episode, we discuss:

How cognitive biases shape our decisions in areas like risk-taking, motivation, and financial behavior.
Why extrinsic motivators like salary aren’t as impactful as feeling valued and connected.

This episode is packed with thought-provoking examples and practical insights on navigating life’s complexities by understanding our own cognitive limitations.

How to stay calm under fire with former CIA Agent
Rupal Patel, a former CIA operative and now a successful CEO, brings a wealth of experience from one of the world's most intense and high-stakes environments. With her unique background, Rupal has transitioned her skills into the business world, offering invaluable insights on leadership, resilience, and strategic thinking. She is also the author of the book "From CIA to CEO," where she shares unconventional life lessons for thinking bigger, leading better, and being bolder.
In this episode we dive into the world of high-pressure leadership with insights from Rupal. During our conversation, she reveals how the skills and mindset developed in the CIA can be applied to business and personal life. We explore key concepts such as the importance of tactical ignorance—focusing only on the information that truly matters—and the idea of "enlightened swagger," a balance of confidence and humility crucial for effective leadership.
We also discuss the power of resourcefulness, especially in situations with limited resources, and how to train yourself and your team to thrive under pressure. Through personal stories from her time in the CIA, Rupal illustrates how these principles helped her navigate both professional and personal challenges, and how you can apply them to your own leadership journey.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to enhance their decision-making, resilience, and ability to lead effectively in volatile environments.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn from a leader who has been tested in some of the most intense situations imaginable, and discover how you can apply these lessons to your own life and career.

In this solocast I talk about relationship building and the factors that go into a high performing team.
Relationship building is important in driving performance rankings, but it is not the top factor. Other capabilities such as taking initiative, displaying integrity, inspiring others, and driving for results have a greater influence on performance rankings.
The number one factor is the ability to establish stretch goals. Building relationships is still important, but these other skills should be prioritized.

The first tactic is having a common purpose, where everyone in the team knows the shared vision and strategy. The second tactic is connection, which involves creating a sense of belonging and maintaining strong relationships within the team. The third tactic is communication, emphasizing the importance of simple, accurate, and succinct communication that is individualized. The fourth tactic is collaboration, which allows for creativity and growth. The final tactic is celebration, where micro and macro wins are acknowledged and rewarded.

From Fleeing the Taliban to Best-selling Author - Abbas Nazari shares his harrowing story
Abbas Nazari, a former Afghan refugee, escaped the Taliban in 2001. He was among over 400 asylum seekers saved by the Norwegian container ship, MV Tampa, in the Indian Ocean, while seeking refuge in Australia. Despite being denied asylum and detained offshore for weeks by Australian special forces, Abbas and his family found resettlement in New Zealand.
Abbas was incredibly vulnerable and open about the experiences he has had and the struggles he’s faced as a refugee. This conversation was eye-opening and gave me a lot of perspective.

In this episode I discuss my perspective on email management and the concept of inbox zero. I believe that being a slave to the inbox is not worth the anxiety and stress it can cause. What is important is good communication and connecting with others face to face. High performance is about consistently exceeding norms while maintaining healthy relationships and well-being. Having an empty inbox does not define high performance.

The Power of an Alcohol-Free Life with James Swanwick
James Swanwick is an Australian-American investor, entrepreneur, speaker and former SportsCenter anchor on ESPN. He is the creator of the Alcohol Free Lifestyle, which helps people change their relationship to alcohol; the host of the podcast, “Alcohol Free Lifestyle.”
After years of drinking alcohol, James decided that he was done with that way of life. He was tired of waking up with anxiety and regret, and he knew that there was more to life than living in a constant haze. This led him down some incredible paths and he now helps thousands of people change their relationship with alcohol.
In 2020, I decided to stop drinking. Initially, this was going to be a 1-year challenge that myself and my partner were taking on. Fast forward 4 years and we are currently celebrating our 4 year alcohol-free anniversary!
This has truly changed my life, health, relationships and business. I strongly encourage you to give James’ approach a go.

Former CEO of Blockbuster on Embracing a Life of Learning
Growing up in poverty in a small town in central Massachusetts, James Keyes seemed destined for a difficult life - one working at the local factory alongside his father and struggling to get by. Instead, he went on to become the CEO of 7-Eleven, where he increased shareholder value by tenfold during his tenure and led the sale of the company to its Japanese licensee. A truly fearless leader, Keyes also tackled a challenging business transformation as Chairman & CEO of Blockbuster.
James recently wrote a book titled “EDUCATION IS FREEDOM: The Future Is in Your Hands.” James talks about his passion for lifelong learning, and how access to education has shaped and changed the trajectory of his life. James believes that education has the ability to empower us and help us reach our full potential.
James and I spoke about his career, his lifelong passion for education and how he believes education is truly freedom.

WHY Leadership is OVERRATED with a Former Navy Seal and Culture Shaper
Chris Mefford and Kyle Buckett are the duo behind the incredible book ‘Leadership is Overrated.’
Chris helped the Dave Ramsey Organization win the “Best Place to Work” award for eight straight years. Kyle assisted in the development of Naval Special Warfare’s 1st Ground Force Commander course of instruction and was ranked number 1 of 9 highly competitive Platoon Chiefs at SEAL Team Three.
I spoke to Chris and Kyle about leadership and why they believe the current model is overrated and not serving us at all. They shared some incredible stories, and also some really useful strategies and tools that you can begin to implement with your team today!

Sir John Key : Decision-Making During Crisis, “Jacinda was really the accidental Prime Minister!”
I was lucky enough to get to interview Sir John Key, New Zealand’s Former Prime Minister, for the 3rd time this year.
In this episode, John and I focused on decision-making during crisis. During his time in office, John was faced with the Christchurch earthquakes, which caused widespread damage across Christchurch and killed 185 people. John was open about how he navigated making decisions during this time, and how we can all learn to make decisions under pressure.
John also spoke about politics, the 2023 Elections, and AI.
Please share this episode with everyone you know. We could all benefit from learning how to make decisions under pressure!

Transforming Pain Into Purpose: Matt Brown's Story of Resilience and Mental Health Advocacy
I had the absolute honour of sitting down with my friend Matt Brown to talk about his life, the lessons he has learnt and his life’s mission.
Matt Brown, is a New Zealand born Samoan and an author, communicator, an internationally acclaimed barber and hair artist; known for giving great cuts and inspiring great men.
This is the second time I had the privilege to interview Matt. We spoke about where he is on his journey now, and all of the incredible things both Matt and his amazing wife Sarah are doing for the people of Aotearoa.
Matt and Sarah opened The She is Not Your Rehab Art Gallery in Christchurch, displaying the thought-provoking body of work entitled, “Who is She?” These prints are incredible and the funding goes to an amazing cause.
Along with the Art Gallery, Sarah and Matt recently launched the “Inner Boy” App, which is an app designed to support men in healing from intergenerational trauma and abuse. This is a free app and has already helped so many people.
Please share this episode with everyone you know, and if you haven’t bought it already, please buy a copy of Matt and Sarah’s incredible book She is Not your Rehab.

URGENT: Ex-Google CBO says AI is now IMPOSSIBLE to stop with Mo Gawdat
I have never put out an urgent episode before. I recorded this conversation 5 days ago with the incredible Mo Gawdat. After our conversation, I realised how urgent this information is and how critical it is that we are all aware of the super-intelligence of AI.
Mo Gawdat is the Former Chief Business Officer for Google X, an AI expert, a best-selling author and a passionate podcaster.
Mo spoke to me about AI. Most people bury their head in the sand when it comes to this topic, Mo is trying to change that. He believes that AI can be used for good, however we all need to work together to make that happen.

Tom spoke about anxiety, stress and how we can train ourselves to be able to cope with these emotions and feelings.
Thomas recently wrote a book “It’s just a thought: Emotional Freedom through Deliberate Thinking.” This book is truly remarkable and I would encourage you to read it.

How To Be a Consciously Connected Leader with Tanya Wilkinson
Tanya Wilkinson is a conscious leader. From her background in marketing for major music labels, to an award winning career as a Business Director in advertising, to her incredible job as Head of Marketing and Events for Formula 1, Tanya has done it all.
Tanya went from a life of rushing around and living at 100miles a minute, to a life of connection with herself, her community and nature.
Tanya embraces conscious and connected leadership, and she is spreading that message far and wide. She has a deep connection to nature and I really loved talking about the leadership lessons we can all take from nature.
This episode really reminded me to slow down and quite literally smell the roses.

Climate Crisis: How to lead through adversity with Tim Jarvis.
Tim Jarvis is an incredible person. He is an explorer, a scientist, a climate change activist, and a world-class leader.
Tim has 25 years of experience in environmental science and exploration expeditions to some pretty extreme places.
In 2013, Tim led an expedition that recreated Shackleton’s “double” which saw Tim and his crew sail 1500km’s across the Southern Ocean from Elephant Island to South Georgia. They then climbed over South Georgia’s mountainous interior, all whilst wearing period clothing and using the same rudimentary equipment and technology that Shackleton used.
Tim has used his platform and influence for good. He is on a mission to teach people that they can make a difference when it comes to climate change. All we need to do is break it down into bite-sized chunks and then focus on what we can control.

Why diversity matters with Karen Pflug
Have you ever wondered how you could take on a role that you knew not-too-much about and absolutely succeed? Karen Pflug is an incredible person who shared her experience with doing just this.
Karen Pflug is the Chief Sustainability Officer at Ingka Group. Ingka Group is the largest IKEA retailer and represents about 90% of IKEA retail sales. It is a strategic partner to develop and innovate the IKEA business and help define common IKEA strategies. Ingka Group owns and operates IKEA sales channels under franchise agreements with Inter IKEA Systems B.V. It has three business areas: IKEA Retail, Ingka Investments and Ingka Centres.
Karen Pflug was open and honest about not being prepared for, or even feeling ready to step into the roles she has stepped into throughout her career. She stepped into these roles anyway and has made an incredible success of them. Karen is an inspiration for a lot of people who want to take on certain roles, but might not feel ready yet. Notice that fear and then do it anyway.
This is a conversation that I thoroughly enjoyed and I know it is the first of many.

There are a lot of leaders who say they are going to achieve the incredible goal, and give their staff all of the amazing resources and training that they deserve, but then they never follow through and put those routines in place. This is where Brent comes in.
Brent is incredibly passionate about leadership and high-performance. This is a podcast that everyone can learn from. Please share this with three of your friends.

How to crush stigma : being the first openly gay All Black with Campbell Johnstone
Campbell Johnstone is a Former All Black and Crusader. He also played rugby in Russia, Wales and France. Campbell grew up in rural New Zealand near Hastings, where his love for rugby grew everyday when he played out in the paddocks with his brothers. He spoke to me about his visualisation practices that he believes helped him achieve that coveted spot on the team as an All Black.
Campbell has recently opened up and spoken about his sexuality. Campbell is now recognised as the first openly gay All Black. He is speaking up now to try to eliminate the stigma around being gay in professional sport, hoping to help others come out and have a different experience than he did.
Campbell was incredibly vulnerable and honest and said that he suppressed this part of himself through his entire career out of fear that it would derail his dream of being an All Black. I cannot stress enough how courageous and brave Campbell has been. I am incredibly honoured to have him on the show.
This episode is one that needs to be shared. Please share this with the people you know, and help us spread Campbell’s message.

Reshaping Capitalism with Ty Montague
Ty Montague is the Co-Founder and CPO at Co:Collective - a company that works alongside leadership teams to identify the companies purpose and values and help them bring those to life throughout the business. They help businesses be congruent and be better story-doers than storytellers.
Ty shared so much gold with me in this conversation. He believes that there is a whole new model of business coming to life, one that focuses on sustainability, congruency, profitability and transparency. He also believes that capitalism can be seen as a force for good if we can reshape it and use it to our advantage.
Ty spent years working for major brands in the advertising world, and was sickened when he realised that the marketing they were putting out into the world was sharing a completely different story to what they were really doing behind the scenes. Ty decided that he wanted to help businesses become more congruent and purpose-driven, so he left advertising and started up Co:Collective.
Ty shared so many interesting perspectives in this conversation, and I truly believe that his mission is going to change the way we do business in the future. Please share this episode with the people you love.

6 Pillars for Daily Mental Health with Sir John Kirwan
Sir John Kirwan is a New Zealand Mental Health advocate, former All Black, and former rugby union coach.
He has written two books on the subject of mental health, has spoken openly about his battles with depression, and been honoured for his services to mental health.
John spoke openly about his struggles with mental health and how he no longer wanted to stick around to deal with it. He got to an incredibly low point and tried to jump out of a window, but instead chose not to when a fellow rugby player told him he was a good guy.
John has established the Sir John Kirwan Foundation to help young people understand mental health. He has also co-founded a workplace wellbeing platform with tech entrepreneur Adam Clark called Groov. Groov is being used by leading workplaces across New Zealand and Australia, including DB Breweries, Kiwibank, Barfoot & Thompson, and the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons.
This episode is definitely one for the books. John was so open, honest and vulnerable and I certainly learnt a lot from him. Please share this with all of your loved ones.

How to see possibilities instead of problems with Elisa Schmitz
Elisa A. Schmitz is an award-winning Latina entrepreneur and journalist. She is the founder and CEO of 30Seconds.com, with millions of unique users every month. She is also the founder of iParenting, a “Best of the Web” digital media company that was acquired by the Walt Disney Company.
Elisa is the author of the new book Become the Fire: Transform Life’s Chaos into Business and Personal Success. “We all experience chaos, challenges, and friction in our lives. Although it manifests in unique and personal ways – racism, ageism, sexism, abuse, illness, disease, disability, divorce, disconnection, inequality, injustice, and more — everyone deals with it. But women who are outsiders experience it more intensely,” says Elisa.
Elisa spoke openly and honestly about her experience in life and what she has learnt. She is incredibly passionate and I thoroughly enjoyed this interview.

6 Secrets to Powerful Answers with Dr. Brian Glibkowski
Dr. Brian Glibkowski is an author and researcher who is passionate about the role that both questions and answers play in life and business.
His journey started with his research on questions. He authored an article on questions that has been recognized by the Association of Human Resource Development as one of ten articles that will shape the 21st century.
One thing that really stuck out to Brian during his research, was the fact that we focus so heavily on questions, and not nearly enough on answers. We are all trying to formulate and ask the right questions, but we spend very little time thinking about powerful answers and how best to answer different questions.
His new book is Answer Intelligence: Raise Your AQ. The book introduces a new science of answers that is nominated for a 2022 Prose award for professional and scholarly excellence. The book rights have been purchased for translation into multiple languages. The AQ framework has been adopted by universities, including the Imperial College of London BusinessSchool(globaltop20). CertifiedAQ Partners from the USA, UK, UAE, Australia, India, and elsewhere use AQ with forward thinking organizations around the world.

6 Secrets to Powerful Answers with Dr. Brian Glibkowski
Dr. Brian Glibkowski is an author and researcher who is passionate about the role that both questions and answers play in life and business.
His journey started with his research on questions. He authored an article on questions that has been recognized by the Association of Human Resource Development as one of ten articles that will shape the 21st century.
One thing that really stuck out to Brian during his research, was the fact that we focus so heavily on questions, and not nearly enough on answers. We are all trying to formulate and ask the right questions, but we spend very little time thinking about powerful answers and how best to answer different questions.
His new book is Answer Intelligence: Raise Your AQ. The book introduces a new science of answers that is nominated for a 2022 Prose award for professional and scholarly excellence. The book rights have been purchased for translation into multiple languages. The AQ framework has been adopted by universities, including the Imperial College of London BusinessSchool(globaltop20). CertifiedAQ Partners from the USA, UK, UAE, Australia, India, and elsewhere use AQ with forward thinking organizations around the world.

She is Not Your Rehab with Matt Brown
I had the absolute honour of sitting down with my friend Matt Brown to talk about his life, the lessons he has learnt and his life’s mission.
Matt Brown, is a New Zealand born Samoan and an author, communicator, an internationally acclaimed barber and hair artist; known for giving great cuts and inspiring great men.
He is a survivor of family violence and childhood sexual abuse and shares his story with the men who frequent his busy Christchurch barbershop, My Fathers Barbers, as a way to foster vulnerability, healing, and connection.
Since 2018, Matt and his wife Sarah, have partnered with the Ministry of Social Development as ambassadors for their ‘It’s not OK Campaign’. Together they co-founded She Is Not Your Rehab and launched the concept in Matt’s 2019 TEDx talk. He says the movement is an invitation for men to acknowledge their own childhood trauma and to take responsibility for their healing so that they can transform their pain instead of transmitting it on those around them.
Please share this episode with everyone you know, and if you haven’t bought it already, please buy a copy of Matt and Sarah’s incredible book She is Not your Rehab.

Ukrainian Leadership with Roman Shulyar
Today we have the privilege of hearing from Transactional Lawyer from the Ukraine - Roman Shulyar, however, he is no longer practising law. He is now enrolled in the Ukrainian Army. He is currently fighting for the freedom of his loved ones, and his country. He is a normal person, just like you and I, who was going about his life believing that Ukraine was a peaceful country. He thought about war as being something that happened far-away in uncivilised countries. He thought that it would never happen in his country. Yet, here we are.
Roman talks about his beliefs around how and why war starts, and what we all need to be aware of. This is definitely a tough episode to listen to, but Roman shares one of the most important messages in it. Please listen to and share this episode with anyone you know.

Using AI to Build Relationships with Rabi Gupta
Rabi Gupta is the Co-Founder and CEO of Evabot, an AI-based corporate gifting platform that makes it super easy for businesses to send highly personalized gifts to their clients and employees, which helps them build authentic relationships that grow their companies.
They serve 1000+ businesses, including giants like Facebook, Microsoft, Oracle, AT&T, Zendesk, Silicon Valley Bank, and Cigna.
Corporate gifting has proven effective, with 66% of people who received a promotional product/gift remembering the brand and 79% saying they would do business with the company again.
Before Evabot, Rabi was also a Co-Founder of iCouchapp, an Indian-based TV show recommendations and social engagement app that had 2M+ monthly active users by the time he sold the company in 2016.
After the sale, Rabi took a bold step to move to Silicon Valley to start a new company.

So, together with a few friends, he solved this problem using AI, and that's how Evabot was born.

How to enforce Brave Boundaries with Dr. Sasha Shillcutt
Dr. Sasha Shillcutt is a renowned cardiac anesthesiologist, professor, bestselling author and CEO/Founder of Brave Enough. Sasha’s TEDx talk titled Resilience: The Art of Failing Forward has been viewed by more than 50K. Her writing has been published in both the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine and JAMA. She’s the author of the new book, Brave Boundaries: Strategies to Say No, Stand Strong and Take Control of Your Time (HCI Books, September 6) and host of The Brave Enough Show podcast.

In Brave Boundaries, she shares how she moved from surviving to thriving by stepping out of expectations, recreating her life according to her priorities and well-being. She began to set boundaries.
Utilizing practical and powerful tools, concepts, and exercises, Sasha invites you into a new way of life. She shares personal and professional expertise on how we can overcome burnout and take back control of our time and lives by learning to set clear work-life boundaries.

Overcome Extreme Adversity with Peter Mutabazi.
We are so excited to publish our 100th episode! This could not have come at a better time, with Father’s Day in New Zealand this Sunday - the timing for this episode couldn’t be any more perfect! Peter Mutabazi is an absolutely magnificent human. This conversation is one that I won’t forget and it is filled with inspiration and hope.
At age ten, Peter Mutabazi ran away from home in rural Uganda to escape his abusive father. For five years Peter survived on the streets of Kampala, a city of 1.5 million, until one man saw potential in him. This one person not only supported Peter through school but altered Peter’s outlook on life in every possible way. Since then, Peter has served as a relief coordinator during the Rwandan genocide, worked for the International Committee of Red Cross during the Sudan conflict, immigrated to the United States, fostered countless children, and became a single foster and adoptive parent. He speaks seven languages and has traveled to more than 100 countries as an international advocate for vulnerable children.
Now I Am Known is Peter’s inspiring true story. In it he reveals the transformational power of taking risks, learning to forgive, overcoming self-doubt, breaking negative patterns, and believing in a better future. He becomes a friend in this must-read, encouraging you to propel forward into a purpose-driven life marked by hope and meaning.

Leadership & Alcohol with Ruari Fairbairns.
This week I was excited to sit down and talk to the co-founder and CEO of the amazing organisation - One Year No Beer, Ruari Fairbairns.
This organisation is very special to me. I have been alcohol free for the past 2 years, and OYNB was the challenge that set me on this amazing path. I have achieved things I never knew I would over these past two years, saved a ton of money and lost quite a bit of weight. Being alcohol free is something I am incredibly passionate about, and I have OYNB to thank, in part, for this!
OYNB was launched in 2016 by Ruari and his friend - Andy. They wanted to challenge themselves to a year without alcohol, and quickly learnt that it was a complete game changer for them! They then came up with the concept for OYNB to encourage others to take on this challenge and connect with like-minded individuals who were doing the same thing.
Ruari shared his story in this episode, as well as the inspiration behind OYNB. He shares with us why and how taking a tactical break from alcohol for a while could be the best thing you do for yourself!
I cannot recommend this challenge enough. It has changed my life and my relationship with alcohol.
Please share this episode with anyone you know who might benefit from listening to it!

Have you ever wondered what goes into being a Formula One Champion? Alex Casanovas has the insights.
This week I sat down and interviewed Aleix Casanovas. Aleix is the incredible Performance Coach to George Russell, driver for Formula 1 Team Mercedes.
Aleix grew up in a small town near Barcelona. He spent a lot of his time outdoors from a young age playing many sports. During his late teens and early twenties, Aleix had the opportunity to travel and race Motorcycles at a very competitive level.
Aleix was never the best student in school, and he never thought he would go on to study a Masters in Sports Sciences. His mother suggested that he go to University, and he reluctantly agreed to it. It only took a few months until he had fallen in love with his studies.
Aleix went on to land a job with Hintsa. Hintsa is the world’s leading, evidence-based coaching company, helping top athletes and business professionals achieve sustainable success. He then started working with a young George Russell, who is now the lead driver for Team Mercedes.
This episode is full of amazing insights. Please share it with someone who you think might benefit from it!

JAMES LAUGHLIN is a 7-Time World Champion, Leadership Strategist & Coach, who helps CEO's, leaders and entrepreneurs to create world-class results in all areas of their lives.
Learn how to improve your EQ with a seven time world champion and leadership coach. When we think about EQ, we think about how you relate to others and how others relate to you. Rapport, empathy, compassion, understanding: all those words come to mind. And I want to talk about one particular aspect of HOW to develop better EQ. And it's a really simple one. Most of us have been gifted with two ears that work really well. And that's a real gift. That's a true gift.
So, I want you to think about your listening abilities. And whether you truly listen, whether you listen to understand whether you listen to judge, whether you listen for leverage, whether you listen to advise, and really think about the power of listening.
And when we think about it, the greatest leaders of all time, one great skill they had was their ability to listen. Nelson Mandela is an amazing leader that I've talked about a lot over the years, I've done quite a bit of study around him and spoke with some of his family members and interviewed them just about how he carried himself and how he developed such an incredible amount of EQ. He was renowned the world over for being able to relate to people, So, how did he develop those skills?
Let's dive in and improve your emotional skills.
