This week on the podcast, Keegan sits down with registered psychologist, runner, and good mate Kyle Andrews to unpack The Psychology of Motivation. In this episode, we discuss: Why motivation is unreliable. Why action beats motivation (every time) Why we wait to feel “ready” before starting How systems and routines create consistency Intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation If you’ve ever struggled to stay consistent, start something meaningful, or wondered why your motivation disappears when you need it... this episode is for you.

This week on the pod we sit down with Katy Bradley; nutritionist and endurance athlete. In this conversation we talk about why so many people under-fuel by mistake, how to cut weight (the healthy way) without destroying your performance, and what a proper carb load actually looks like ahead of a big race. Katy is a couple of weeks out from her first Ironman and breaks down her personal tips and tricks that she is going to be taking into race day. Katy opens up about losing her dad to cancer, how watching his relentless work ethic shaped who she is today. What helped, what didn't, and why the hardest thing she's ever been through gave her even more mental strength today which she carries into everything now.Learn more about Katy Bradley here:https://www.instagram.com/katybradleyyhttps://www.instagram.com/katy_bradley_nutrition https://katybradleynutrition.com.au/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ever been stuck on a thought you can't shake? This episode will help you understand why that happens and what you can actually do about it. This week on the pod we break down the psychology of rumination - what happens when we get stuck on a thought and can't move past it. We've all been there. An injury, a breakup, someone who did wrong by you, a thought that just keeps circling. You replay it, reframe it, spiral on it - and somehow feel worse than when you started. In this solo episode we define what rumination actually is, the traits and life events that make us more prone to it, the difference between rumination and healthy emotional processing, and the science-backed strategies that help us break the cycle. We also get into the Two Wolves analogy, Andy Buchanan's mid-marathon anchoring technique, and a simple visualisation that's been a genuine game changer.

This week on the pod we sit down with Kitalé Wilson; filmmaker, writer, polar explorer and adventurer. Kitalé spent his early years living on a sailboat in Indonesia, travelling through Africa and Southeast Asia, and growing up on a family farm in rural Australia. Now at 25, recently nominated for Young Australian Filmmaker of the Year and screening at Banff Film Festival, he's channelling a lifetime of adventure into storytelling through film, photography, and writing. In this conversation we talk about what it means to grow up with a polar explorer for a father and a therapist for a mother. How those two forces shaped his approach to adventure, creativity, and life. We hear about near misses - hurricane force winds on a 40-foot sailboat in the Southern Ocean, a torn tent in a -30°C snowstorm on an Icelandic glacier - and what those experiences teach you about ego, vulnerability, and mortality. We also get into why slowing down could be considered a social rebellion these days, the balance between pushing hard and being present, vulnerable masculinity, and why the most dangerous thing you can bring on an expedition is your ego.Learn more about Kitalé Wilson here: https://kitale.xyz https://www.instagram.com/kitalewilson/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week’s Spiral Up Diaries, I talk about two back-to-back adventures that reminded me what it's all about... Hanging out with awesome crew. First up, the Red Bull Fitness Summit at Perisher. Three epic days surrounded by some of Australia’s most driven creators and athletes — trail running through the mountains, HYROX workouts, and even a parkour and free running session with @domtomato. It was one of those experiences that makes you grateful to be part of a community that loves to push limits — alongside legends like @everettjosh_, @mrcourtneyatkinson, @louisphillips12, @mmoorefit, @manu_taylor, and @brodysearle. Then straight after Perisher, I headed back to Canberra and linked up with @_mynameislincoln, who’s in the middle of his Capital to Coast challenge, running 1,600 kilometres from Canberra to the Gold Coast over 16 days to raise funds for his mate Johnny, who was recently paralyzed in a surfing accident.
