23 | Damon Lowery on The Mission Mindset, Rising to the Occasion and Owning the Inner Voice.
Damon Lowery is probably known to most of us as a media personality within the NBL on ESPN.
He has an incredible professional career under his belt with almost 200 NBL games, a championship with the Wollongong Hawks and a highlight reel that puts most to shame.
Today, he is the head coach of the Gangurrus, Australia's 3X3 Women's team who punched their ticket to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games earlier this year.
You'd be forgiven for thinking this episode is focused on his sporting career. While we spend time touching on the highlights, the majority of this conversation is based around mindset.
Damon has changed his life through "The Way of The Seal." Finding himself in a slump, he dived headfirst into discovering how some of the most elite operators the world take care of their business; The Navy Seals.
We discuss how he built his "Mission Mindset", how he approaches challenges and how this mindset shift has spread to how he lives in the many different roles he has today. From a father and a husband, to a national coach and an athlete, Damon's approach to life is incredibly honest, motivating and something that is truly inspiring.
Get the notepad out, there's plenty of gold in this one.

22 | Unlock the Power In You. Slaying Dragons with Jeremy Diamond
We've all gone through rough patches in life. Work, relationships, family... Whatever it is, life has a funny way of getting in our head and weighing us down from time to time.
What do you do to pull yourself out of those slumps? And what do you do if you don't realise just how big of a slump you're in?
Today I sit down with Jeremy Diamond, a key cog of The Power In You Project (PIYP) and Founder of Paradise Personal Improvement.
Jeremy and I go quite a way back together. We've both done some pretty tough things together but our proudest achievement is what we've managed to create in the self improvement and mental health space. As you'll hear, we're still unsure on what to call it but our "workshops" involve recognising life circumstances and committing to making positive change.
Today we discuss the power that everyone has within (even if they haven't recognised it yet), how to break seemingly massive problems into bite sized solutions and how there is always beauty in the struggle.
Along with that, we dissect our workshops that we run together, how children's books can often hold some of the greatest life lessons we'll ever learn, the power of genuine conversations and the strength of vulnerability.
A conversation full of wisdom, motivation and tips to overcome the struggles found in daily life, Jezza's no-nonsense approach to life is refreshing and inspiring.
We do discuss some pretty sensitive issues so if you, or someone you know, may feel affected or overwhelmed, please reach out to Lifeline on 13 11 14 or lifeline.org.au (lifeline.org.au)
You can get in touch with him on Instagram at @_paradise_personal_improvement (https://www.instagram.com/_paradise_personal_improvement/)
or through Paradise Gym at @_paradise_gym (@_paradise_gym) and if you're chasing a copy of our journal, you can find it here -> CYG Journal (CYG Journal)
