Ep 48. Feeling Stuck In Life? Here's How To Change It w/ Tamsin Simounds

Do you feel stuck in life — like you know something needs to change, but you have no idea where to start? Have you ever wondered why reading another book or watching another video never actually moves the needle?In this episode, we sit down with Tamsin Simounds — leadership coach, keynote speaker and author of The Experiment Mindset — to unpack why traditional goal-setting keeps so many of us stuck, and what actually creates lasting change.We explore how imposter syndrome hit Tamsin hardest right as she was succeeding early in her career, why she spent a decade building her coaching business on the side before she ever left her corporate job, and the science-backed method that came out of it.Through powerful stories and real-life examples, we dive into:<ul><li>Why gathering more information is keeping you stuck (and what to do instead)</li><li>Why imposter syndrome hit hardest the moment she got her first promotion </li><li>The sunk cost fallacy — and why it's running more of your decisions than you think</li><li>What an "expander" is, and how the right person in your life can make the impossible feel possible</li><li>The three levers of change — environment, physiology and psychology — and where to actually start</li><li>Why "push through it" is sometimes the worst advice — and what to do instead </li><li>Why Tamsin just launched an activewear startup — and how it's the ultimate proof of concept for everything in this episode</li></ul>If you've been sitting on a decision, a career change, or just a feeling that something needs to shift — this episode gives you a real place to start.

Ep 47. He Lost Everything to Depression - Then Started Australia's Biggest Mental Health Movement w/ Graeme Cowan

Have you ever been so far down that you genuinely couldn't see a way out? Not just a bad week — but months, then years, of not being okay? That's where today's guest was. And what he built from that place changed the entire country.In this episode, we sit down with Graeme Cowan — co-founder of R U OK? Day, author of Great Leaders Care, and host of The Caring CEO podcast (ranked #2 globally for workplace mental health) — to unpack what severe depression, an ICU admission, and a five-year recovery really look like from the inside, and what Graeme has since learned about building a life and a career that doesn't cost you your mind.We explore how one of the most significant mental health movements in Australian history grew directly from one man's darkest chapter — and what that means for all of us who are quietly struggling.Through powerful stories and real-life examples, we dive into:<ul><li>What severe depression actually looks like from the inside (and why it often hides behind a high-performing exterior)</li><li>The surprising origin story of R U OK? Day — and why it almost didn't happen</li><li>The Mood Meter: the simple self-check tool from Graeme's book that's changing how leaders track wellbeing at work</li><li>Why 99.67% of workplace mental health suffering is invisible to official systems — and what that means for your team</li><li>The four pillars of a thriving life: Mindset, Vitality, Intimacy, and Prosperity</li><li>Why hope isn't soft — and what Scott learned the hard way when a doctor took his away</li><li>The one thing Graeme does every single day that's kept him well for over two decades</li></ul>If you're going through something right now — or leading people who might be — this episode is worth your full attention.

Ep 46. You're Not "Too Nice" — Kindness Is Actually a Superpower w/ Sophie Bretag

Have you ever been told you're too nice? That being kind makes you a pushover? That real strength means being tough, not warm?In this episode, we sit down with Sophie Bretag — author, award-winning keynote speaker, executive HR consultant, and self-described Chief Kindness Officer — to unpack why everything you've been taught about kindness might be wrong, and what the science actually says about its impact.Sophie's new book The Kind Way introduces the Kind Human Quotient (KHQ) — a four-pillar framework for leading and living with genuine kindness — and she breaks down how it applies to workplaces, relationships, and the way we show up for ourselves.Through real stories and hard-won insight, we explore:<ul><li>Why kindness is consistently mistaken for weakness — and why that belief is costing you more than you realise</li><li>The surprising science behind the kindness ripple effect (witnessing an act of kindness has the same neurological benefit as giving or receiving one)</li><li>Why "clear is kind" — and how courageous conversations and firm boundaries are actually acts of kindness, not the opposite</li><li>The Know Yourself pillar: why most of us don't actually know ourselves as well as we think — and why that's the foundation of everything</li><li>Why the people who give the most to others are often the least kind to themselves</li><li>The myth of work-life balance — and what actually matters when your values and your calendar don't match</li></ul>If you've ever softened who you are to fit into a world that rewards toughness, this episode will reframe kindness not as a compromise — but as your greatest strength.
