Jack Woods is an online fitness coach who has a very unique method of building muscle and achieving what he believes to be the ideal physique.
It would be safe to assume that in 2024, online fitness is more about marketing than actual fitness. The market is very saturated, so trainers need to come up with an angle, controversial opinion in air quotes, or reason why everything else is wrong, that makes you sign up to their program, as opposed to someone else’s which will help you achieve the same goal.
What I find very interesting about Jack’s program and philosophy to fitness is he adopts the approach of less is more – to the extreme of only requiring 40 minutes of exercise – per week – to build muscle on your whole body. Is there any credibility to this or is it just another angle to sell a program?

#12 Henry Badgery - The Four Day Work Week with AI
Henry Badgery is an Artificial Intelligence Engineer and co founder of the AI company ‘FourDay’, which has a mission of moving society to a four day work week with the implementation of AI.
Artificial intelligence is one of those things that comes across as scary; it’s gonna take our jobs, turn into robots and kill us etc. but it’s also a big unknown for a lot of people – beyond Chat GPT, how would we even go about using AI to make our everyday lives better?
As someone who’s been immersed in AI for quite a while now, it’s interesting talking to Henry as he’s seen how it’s developed, how it’s being used and has an interesting take on how AI will look in the world going forward.

#11 Youssef Abouelnasr - I Quit My Job and Started An Online Business
Youssef Abouelnasr is the co-owner of Comkey Consulting (@comkeyconsulting on Instagram), a digital consulting startup which focuses on web design, development, hosting and search engine optimisation.
What I admire about this story is that Youi did what a lot of people dream of doing but never do - quit his well-paid full-time job as a lawyer to wade through the uncertain, saturated abyss that is e-commerce.
I hope you enjoy this one!

#10 Six Months No Alcohol...This Is What Happened
A solo episode this week, reflecting on the New Years Resolution that Cam actually stuck to this year (so far) - not drinking alcohol.
If you YouTube the benefits of giving up alcohol, there are countless videos that would have you believe sobriety from alcohol is the solution to your problems. Better sleep, better relationships, better skin, liver function returning (I don't know how that is measured).
This has been Cam's experience at the 6 month mark, which may be a little bit different to what you would see anywhere else.

#9 Bella Leone - Embracing the Pivot!
Bella Leone is a breakfast radio host at i98fm in Wollongong, one third of the #1 rated Marty Christian and Bella.
She’s very talented, very entertaining and full of life – but like everyone who works in the media I often wonder how much of the public persona we see is what we would also get behind closed doors.
In this episode we talk about what it’s like growing up with 9 siblings, why at age 25 she quit her full-time job as a teacher to become a casual promotions worker for her local radio station, why you shouldn’t be afraid to pivot on the journey to achieving your dreams, what it was like balancing a career and the choice to become a mother, and heaps more.
Bells is heaps of fun and I hope you enjoy her as much as the hundreds of thousands of people who wake up to her voice each morning do as well.

#4 Oliver Hunter - Addressing The Elephant On The Stage
Oliver Hunter is a stand up comedian and a proud Dad.
He begins a lot of his routines with "Sorry if I've misled you; at no point tonight will I be standing up". Oli has cerebral palsy and is in a wheelchair. But, as you'll discover in this episode, he has never let that define who he is or stop him from living the life he wants to live.
We discuss what it's like to be a comedian, why he doesn't mind people asking stupid questions about his disability, what it was like growing up in a wheelchair, whether he's ready to be a Dad and plenty more.
Catch Oli at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival this year: https://www.comedyfestival.com.au/2024/shows/baby-on-board

#3 Maje Saba - You Don't Have As Much Time As You Think
Maje Saba is the host of the i98FM Drive Show in Wollongong and has been for the past 24 years. He is also a podcaster.
Maje is a household name in the Illawarra region of NSW (one hour south of Sydney), but despite the controversial outspoken radio persona he holds a lot of his cards very close to his chest. He doesn't want anyone knowing his age, and he never talks about the 24 years he spent relishing in the radio fame of a pre social media era - all of which we naturally discuss today.
We talk about why he refuses to accept the fitness stereotype of a Dad, what it was like to be a radio personality before social media existed, why you don't have as much time as you think, why you should have a family if you can, and plenty more. Share/and leave a review :)

#2 Liam Heinzel - 800 to 100K Instagram Followers in One Year
Liam Heinzel is a soil sampler, stunt rider and founder of Mad Style Moto - a stunt riding community and e-commerce store.
Liam dials in from his family farm in Eugowra, Central West NSW, sitting in front of his Mad Style Moto van which has become famous as the counter weight for his mobile backflip ramp. He has managed to build a massive social media following of 100K+ in the past year, and seems to be only just getting started. I believe this is off the back of his individuality and authenticity which has allowed him to connect deeply with his fanbase.
In this episode we talk about how he was able to land his first backflip, his vision for stunt riding in Australia, why you shouldn’t be risk averse especially when you’re young, how he gained just under 100 thousand Instagram followers in a year, what it’s really like to start an ecommerce store and plenty more.

#1 Emma Smith - Are Side Hustles Worth The Effort?
Emma Smith is a radio journalist at i98FM - the Illawarra's #1 rated radio station. She's also the co-host of the very popular Interview Boss podcast, and freelance writer for several publications.
As a news journalist, how is it that you can dive so deep into what seems to be a bottomless pit of negative news, and remain a happy human being? And, how does one find the energy to also contribute to a rapidly growing podcast brand, which in the early years may seem like a result-less effort?
In this episode we talk about growing up in regional NSW and the different life perspectives that provides, how to compartmentalise negative news and not let it ruin your day, what people don’t know about starting a side hustle and plenty more.

Welcome to Lifesaurus.
Welcome to Lifesaurus!
Lifesaurus is a play on the concept of a thesaurus, which is a collection of synonyms – different ways of saying a word which has the same meaning. I look at a lifesaurus as a collection of lifeonyms – unique approaches to life formed by experiences and attitudes, which can be used to confront the same thing we all experience; life.
I really do love the thought that an insight, a simple quote, or a new way of looking at things can change the direction of your life. It’s happened to me on multiple occasions.
Expect to hear from interesting people with extraordinary jobs, people with boring jobs who have extraordinary lives, people who are trying something new and people who have been doing the same thing for decades – there’s something you can learn from all walks of life.
