A 5th generation military man called by a purpose to serve our country, Commando Heston Russell put his life on the line in 5 tours of Iraq & Afghanistan. His calling to serve & willingness to sacrifice his life on the front line, filled him with pride until our country turned their back on him. Branding Heston a war criminal, the ABC released doctored footage and accused Heston of committing a war crime. Proving he wasn't even in the country at the time of the incident & that the footage had been manipulated, Heston was not only cleared of the accusations but he also won a landmark defamation case in the Federal Court against the ABC. Throughout this process, the politicians who had formerly called on Heston for his expertise did not answer his calls for assistance & the Australian Defence Force did not reach out to even check in on him once. Heston was abandoned by the people he served whilst in the fight of his life.However, now on the other side of a more tumultuous time, I was privileged to share this incredible conversation with him.There are a few things I admire about Heston. Of course, his service to our great country is one of them, but at the core of this incredible man is one of the most powerful stories & unique personalities I have had on the show. Here is what to expect for our chat:- Crushing all stereo types, Heston now openly speaks about his sexuality as a gay man - one of the very few who have walked his path in life to do so. - He shares some absolutely hilarious stories in the conversation that had me in stitches. The more wholesome message though is the importance of embracing who you truly are to live a fulfilled life & reconnect with your purpose in life.- We break down & discuss the mindset & character required to be a high performer in the special forces.- Heston intimately shares the words he wrote in death notes to family & friends before heading off on his most dangerous deployments. He believes that this is one of the most powerful exercises you can do to find inner peace & channel high performance.- We speak about leadership & why it seems to be lacking in Australian politics.- All of this & so much more in one of my all time favourite episodes of the show.Follow Heston & I on socials @bradleyjdryburgh @hestonrussellGo to https://hestonrussell.com/book for his incredible book!​ ⁨@HestonRussell⁩ on YouTube.If you enjoyed this episode, subscribe to the channel so that I can continue to interview the best guests from around the world & share the most entertaining & insightful conversations with you.Big love,Brad xx Hosted on Acast.

Frank Greeff is the co-founder of Realbase, a market place for real estate agents to purchase products to power their marketing & sales campaigns. Acquired by Domain in 2022, Frank & his fellow founding brothers cashed in on 10 years of blood, sweat & tears for a sweet return to the tune of $180 million. Frank continued on as CEO of Realbase for 2 years at Domain but in the last month has stepped away from his role, to turn his attention & focus toward passion & purpose.Frank's new podcast 'Chew the Fat' is centred around interviewing men & women in the business space to share knowledge but not before he cooks them a meal in the kitchen. He hopes that the value shared in the podcast will build an audience to market his newest charity project to the masses. This project is in form of a cook book he is titling 'Eat with Purpose', of which all proceeds will go towards supporting children's cancer charities.

Brad, Joey & Tye (Phoons) discuss the former limiting beliefs they once held that they no longer believe to be true. Isn't it odd that society tends to criticise people in power or influence for changing their beliefs/stance even when it seems to be for the better? A healthy element of growing as a human is to use or experience & learnings to understand ourselves & the world a little better than we did yesterday. Therefore, it only makes sense that with growth some of our beliefs are questioned, challenged & changed. We shared a few examples of how this has been true in our own lives & it made for an interesting & as always, enjoyable conversation amongst 3 mates all navigating life in their late 20's & early 30's.You can connect with us on socials @bradleyjdryburgh @phoony103 @joeysoho_Subscribe to the channel for more podcasts & share the episode with your mates.Big Love,Brad xoxo Hosted on Acast.

Humanity is currently facing a crisis. Women are falling victim to physical, sexual & emotional abuse at the hands of men & the statistics tell a sad story of a culture gone wrong.I spent the morning having a long form conversation with 2 of my best mates. We are certainly not experts, we don't have all the answers but we wanted to start a conversation & create dialogue to develop our understanding, to be accountable for what needs to change & to lead the way for other men to do the same. We understand that the we can only try to empathise with women, but we can't speak to their personal experiences as young men & because of that, we invite anyone listening to the episode or watching along to contribute to the conversation with feedback or their own perspective. Cultural change requires a collective effort.In this conversation, we discuss:- What does it mean to be a good man?- How we can take responsibility to create safer environments for women to live without looking over their shoulder or feeling uncomfortable in environments like the workplace, school & bars/clubs?- Redefining sexual abuse & giving clarity to what society has previously defined as a ‘grey area'.- Sharing the female perspectives of women we know & the work advocates like Chanel Contos are doing to help women call out in-appropriate behaviour & help men understand it. - The problematic narratives in media that creat further division instead of unity for positive change. & much more.

James O'Connor burst onto the super rugby scene as a 17 year old & had his first Wallabies cap at the ripe age of 18. His early talent marked him a stand out for rugby fans & a target for the Australian media. As a young man mistakes are inevitable & James' often made for good headlines on the back page & a tirade of criticism. Both of which hugely influenced his decision to step outside of Australia & explore career opportunities in Europe for a number of years. Now back on home soil, it's clear that James has made peace with himself & ultimately has nothing to prove, yet a lot to show for the journey he has been on.
