I waited eight months to get Scotty Douglas strapped into the hot seat here at RWTP HQ, and doesn't he have some stories to tell! We went from Paris kitchens where he got dressed down by French chefs, to running a café with brown paper bag accounting and zero tax literacy, to cooking breakfast for the Dean who took a chance on him and changed the trajectory of his life. Scott’s story is a wild and rambunctious ride. Chef to advanced life support paramedic. Service industry to service industry. From plating swordfish with beef cheek sauce to doing CPR in suburban lounge rooms. We talked about ego and humility. About the shock of discovering not everyone in your dream profession is exceptional. About loving the chaos. About failure when failure means someone dies. We unpacked the assault that changed everything for him. The moment confidence turned into hypervigilance. The reality that helping comes at a cost. And that desire to 'win' a resus. This one isn’t just about paramedicine. It’s about identity, purpose, and what happens when the thing you love also wounds you. If he plays his cards right, we might just get him back to share some of the wilder stories I've heard...

This conversation hit a little differently. Vicki Scott joined me to talk about slowing down, perspective, and what really changes when life punches you square in the face. After being diagnosed with stage four bowel cancer, Vicki found herself navigating not just treatment, surgery, and survival, but the unexpected emotional aftermath that nobody really prepares you for. We talked about the pressure we put on ourselves to achieve, prove, and keep pushing, even after something life altering. About identity, perfectionism, and the uncomfortable realisation that sometimes the hardest thing isn’t fighting, it’s learning how to stop striving and actually live. Vicki shared what cancer taught her about toughness, legacy, community, and why being kind and genuinely supporting others matters more than titles, achievements, or ticking boxes. This is a conversation about resilience without the shiny Instagram version. The messy middle. The quiet aftermath. And the courage it takes to choose presence over proving.

Tania Khazaal works in the family estrangement space, and she came in hot with a message a lot of people will hate at first… but probably need to hear. Is today’s therapy language and our feeds flooded with social media buzzwords creating the perfect permission slip to cut people off before we’ve actually learned how our nervous system works, how to communicate properly, or how to stop making everyone else the villain in our story? Tania shared her own story of cutting off her mum 'in the name of healing', then realising resentment without a path forward is a dead end. We went deep into one of my favourite conversations, the nuance between fault and responsibility, rupture and repair, why 'boundaries' are being used like brick walls instead of self-respect, and how being triggered is often a sign there’s more healing to do. We also unpacked the long game of rewiring patterns, how repair happens when you stop defending yourself and start listening, and when estrangement is actually necessary. Basically, this episode is for anyone who wants better relationships, less emotional fragility, and more personal power, without pretending any of it is easy. For some, it’ll be a game-changer. For others, it might feel confronting. Either way, it’s an epic, honest conversation about tough dynamics most people avoid.

I booked this chat thinking I'd be talking to an animal behaviour expert. Turns out, I was basically signing up for a gentle but very accurate psychological assessment via my pets. Mark Vette and I talked dogs, cats, bonding, anxiety, routine, over-attachment, and why our animals know us better than most humans ever will. We went deep into why dogs feel like family, how cats absolutely train us without apology, and how so many behaviour “problems” are really mirrors we don’t always want to look at. All things puppies, rescues, trauma, separation stress, why some dogs melt down when you leave, why some cats feel like emotionally intelligent sociopaths, and how animals live way more in the present than we do. There was science, evolution, Buddhism, oxytocin, teenage dogs, Whippet anxiety, boot eating Staffies, and the humbling realisation that none of us are top of the hierarchy in our own homes. (well, I'm sure bloody well not...) This was funny, grounding, and wildly reassuring if you’ve ever wondered whether your animal chose you, shaped you, or both. Spoiler... yes.

A hearty chat with Alison Bowen escalates quickly... I mean you can't escalate a whole lot more than the Mount Everest Summit, hey!? Quite an understated lass, Alison has been in the midst of her Seven Summits journey, which started not with Everest glory, but with joining a Rover group, doing weekend hikes, getting curious, and slowly chipping away at bigger and higher mountains over nearly two decades. What I loved most about this chat was how unromanticised it was. This wasn’t about chasing adrenaline, making noise or proving anything. It was about curiosity, patience, commitment, and sticking with something long enough to see where it might take you. Even when that something eventually takes you to the highest bloody mountain on the planet. She's got two more to tick off the list this year and next... now she's opening the door for you to follow along, so go on get inspired! Oh yeah… we also had a full tech meltdown mid-chat, which honestly felt on brand. Mountains are hard. Zoom is harder.

Righto, Tony Pearce is back. And yep, he’s still head down, tail up, doing wildly wholesome and mildly unhinged things in the name of mental health. We rewound to Tony’s Trek in 2023, when he looked at the brutal reality of mental injury and suicide risk in emergency services and basically went, nah, we can’t just keep talking about this and doing nothing. So he walked 1500km through fire-affected parts of northeast and east Victoria and raised serious money for early intervention wellbeing programs. The kind that step in early, before someone’s “clinically diagnosed” and completely cooked. Then came Everest Base Camp in 2024. Casual. And now in 2026 he’s cranking the dial again, paddling 2400km down the Murray over 50 days. That’s 45 to 50km a day, about seven hours on the water, every day, to raise awareness and another 50k for more residential wellbeing programs. What I loved most was the honesty. No platitudes, no tidy endings. Just real talk about emergency service workers, mental health, and how much still slips through the cracks. Tony doesn’t sugarcoat it. Sometimes people don’t make it, even with love, purpose, and community around them. And that’s hard to sit with. But it’s exactly why early intervention matters, and why these conversations matter.

This one is basically me and Harps doing what we do best. Taking the piss, accidentally saying something deeply meaningful, then laughing so it doesn’t get too serious. We talked about goals, plans, and why ticking boxes doesn’t always fix how you feel. That weird moment where you get the thing you thought you wanted and realise it wasn’t the antidote. Identity, perceived value, and the stuff we chase without really checking the cost. Then we went down a rabbit hole on perception. Same wine, different label, different brain response. Which is equal parts fascinating and mildly terrifying. Because it turns out we’re not just living our lives, we’re interpreting them. The hill doesn’t change. We do. And apparently the solution is either adaptation… or a glass of wine.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nicole Liddell is doing her PhD on coercive control, specifically how technology gets used to keep the control going even after someone leaves. And honestly, the examples are equal parts terrifying and ridiculously sneaky. Bank transfers with threats in the reference line. Smart home systems taken over remotely. A bloody robovac being used like a creepy little spy cam on wheels. But the part that really landed was the human cost of researching this stuff when you’ve lived it. Nicole talks about going in 'eyes wide open', thinking she had it handled… then realising she didn’t. The immersion, the algorithms, the constant exposure, the nervous system never switching off. And then her body basically calling time on the whole thing. From there, it turned into this really honest convo about hypervigilance, dating after dodgy history, rigidity, and learning to live in the messy middle instead of either fawning or fleeing. We talked self-respect, boundaries, communicating needs, and why 'fun' is not a cute extra, it’s medicine. And Nicole’s 2026 word is stewardship, which feels like the most grown-up, grounded way to say, I’m not sacrificing myself to the mission anymore. BOOM!!

'Big Dog' Jason Blyth is BACK! An origin story so massive I didn't even attempt to cover it all in our first chat in episode 967... In our second chat (as we dart off in multiple directions along the way) we essentially came together to talk about Jason's biological father... what it was like seeking him out and meeting him, and the way trauma can shape identity like a shadow you didn’t ask for. We talk forgiveness and launch into the hero’s journey stuff, choice points, the dark cave, the dragon, the moment where you either change or repeat the pattern until it eats you alive. Jason is a weapon of a human and one I'm blessed to have met last year and call a friend.. you loved the first ep with him and I know you're gonna love this one too!

Mick Harrington is back, aka the Mower Man, and honestly I could listen to that bloke sing the phone book and still get emotional. But this time round we are getting fired up on all things bushfires... Funding. Public land management. The gap between decisions made in Spring Street and the reality on the ground when your town is literally on fire. Mick talked about communities being left vulnerable, old trucks, not enough fuel reduction, not enough basic roadside slashing, and the mental toll that sits in people’s bodies for years after the flames are gone. And the part that hit hardest was the “doers” story. People being told “no resources, you’re on your own” and still saving farms, neighbours, and half a town with sheer grit, old gear, and guts.

Imagine what its like growing up in a religious cult... Cait managed to wriggle herself free from the Christian Patriarchy in her mid 20's... breaking free from a rigid belief system and an emotionally abusive father.. Cait was homeschooled, isolated, taught that obedience was love and silence was safety. No choices. No agency. No room for anger, desire, or even curiosity. We talked about courtship instead of dating, emotional purity instead of emotional literacy, and what it does to a person when their inner voice is systematically shut down. We went into leaving family, losing community, rebuilding identity from scratch, and learning how to feel again without apologising for it. Trauma, therapy, trust, boundaries, anger, grief, and the slow reclamation of self all showed up. I loved this conversation around how our upbringing and environments in childhood shapes who we are and how we function as grown-ups.Cait is one hell of a brave human in my opinion... she didn't agree with that label for herself, which in itself was an interesting part of the conversation.

In this chat with Andrea Gullick gets right into the uncomfortable stuff. Loss, identity, control, and the stories we tell ourselves just to keep functioning. Andrea shared what it was like losing her husband suddenly, navigating a baby with cancer, and becoming a young widow while still trying to look like she was coping. We talked about the mask of being strong, how long you can wear it for, and what happens when it finally cracks. We dug into worry, intuition, anxiety, and the difference between sensing life versus trying to control it. How much of who we think we are is actually conditioning. And what happens when the identities you build your life around get taken away. She also walked through the tools that helped her understand her patterns instead of being run by them. Human Design, Gene Keys, and the Enneagram. Not as labels or woowoo, but as mirrors. Ways to see what drives your behaviour when you’re stressed, scared, or trying to belong. This episode isn’t about fixing anything. It’s about noticing. About what’s left when you stop running, stop performing, and actually sit with yourself.

Alright, so this one is basically Harps and I coming in hot for 2026 like, hello fresh page, who dis. We riff hard on the weird psychology of dates, New Year’s resolutions, and why humans act like January 1 is some magical portal when it’s literally just a number on a calendar... not to mention the thing nobody wants to admit, that most people want the reward without the work, and we keep trying to find the outcome without the discomfort. Fresh year, real talk, and a reminder that you don’t need a new calendar to start. You need truth, consistency, and a willingness to do the boring hard stuff when nobody’s clapping.

Part two with Dr. Carrie Jones and yet again, this one hit the mark. We talked about the part of perimenopause no one prepares you for, the motivation drop, the mood shifts, the weight gain that shows up even when you 'haven’t changed anything,' and the identity wobble that makes you question your own operating system. Carrie broke down what’s actually happening under the hood. Hormones influencing energy, fat loss, recovery, brain chemistry, sleep, joints, even why frozen shoulder seems to love menopausal women. We unpacked intermittent fasting, why so many women burn out chasing male health advice, and how stress, underfueling, and overtraining quietly wreck us in midlife. We also got practical. HRT, testosterone, longevity, labs to ask for, iron being criminally overlooked, and why you’re not broken or weak for struggling. This episode is equal parts science, permission, and a reminder that your body isn’t failing you, it’s asking you to play by new rules.

Seven years ago Jay Stevens was in a helicopter that plummeted from the sky at Uluru. He fell out of the sky from about 120 metres, shattered his body, ended up with a spinal cord injury, and spent months in hospital and rehab. And instead of making peace with 'that’s it,' he went full mad scientist on his own recovery, obsessively training, visualising, rebuilding pathways, and stacking tiny process wins until he took his first steps FOUR years later. We talk chosen suffering, the hard we pick vs the hard that picks us, and why comfort is the sneaky little thief of progress. We get into the emotional side too, the grief he buried, the PTSD, EMDR, and how he learned to talk himself through the worst memories. This is one of those chats that makes you sit up and go, 'Yeah righto… I’ve been negotiating with myself a bit too much.'

After Bruce recently joined me for another ah-mazing chat, I thought ya'll might appreciate a throwback to our first conversation on the show... So, here ya go... Enjoy!Is dissociation actually a superpower that's been given a bad rap? Why does trauma make some memories so vivid, yet lock others away in a seemingly inaccessible vault? Can how we view our story determine whether we experience post-traumatic growth vs post-traumatic stress disorder? Did you know it takes as little as a 10-minute traumatic experience at a very young age to permanently change brain biology? Meaning those babies turn into adults whose brains function very differently when it comes to processing stress and trauma. So many incredibly important questions, insight and perspectives and I'm still pinching myself to say that I got to delve into this conversation with the holy grail when it comes to the research around the impact of childhood abuse, neglect and trauma and the developmental effect it has on the brain, Dr. Bruce Perry. Over the last thirty years, Dr. Perry has been an active teacher, clinician and researcher in children’s mental health and the neurosciences holding a variety of academic positions. His work on the impact of abuse, neglect and trauma on the developing brain has impacted clinical practice, programs and policy across the world. Dr. Perry and Oprah Winfrey's recently released book 'What Happened To You' has had over 1 million sales and is one that I've read several times myself.

In this chat, Harps and I are talking about how we absorb people without realising it... just by being around them. Their moods, their outlook, their weird little phrases, their emotional vibe (there's an actual term for that... it's called emotional contagion), and how all this stuff seeps straight into our system. No consent form. No conscious effort. Old mate Harps call it 'social osmosis'. It’s basically emotional second-hand smoke. Sometimes it’s toxic, sometimes it’s a deep breath you didn’t know you needed. Have you noticed how some people make you feel better just by existing near you? Even in silence? Yeah, that’s not nothing. Something is happening there. This convo is one of those. One of our all-time favorite Harps-'n'-me chats. Hope it hits you the way it hit us.

In this one I drag our mate Patrick Bonello back in for what starts as a chat about planes and paragliders and in no time at all turns into a masterclass on fear, instinct and why our brains are absolute freaks of nature as we riff on fight or flight, muscle memory and the 'physics engine' in your brain that calculates traffic, balance and punches faster than you could ever think.

After Stephen recently revisited the show for our second ah-mazing conversation it reminded me what a hit this first chat we had was with myself and listeners... so in the spirit of dishing up some great content to prompt you to reflect deeply on life, I dare say this one might be just the thing for wrapping up this time of year... 'We're all dying from the moment we are born.' It's the truth, but a truth we never really acknowledge or contemplate. I never could have imagined how much I was going to love this conversation with Stephen Jenkinson. He's a philosopher and a wordsmith, a deep-thinker and an articulate communicator, and he has a way of weaving linguistic magic that took my mind into places it loves to go. We talk about death and what it means to die. How we wrestle with fear of it and thus in the process of which, do we truly live? As humans we are tiny, fleeting and somewhat insignificant on this earth... What happens if and when we make peace with this concept? Or can we make peace with it at all?

G’day team, this one’s me, myself, and my end of year brain dump. A little Christmas wrap-up where I’m basically talking to the void and hoping it talks back in downloads. I unpack what’s actually shifted this year, not just the highlight reel stuff. The Himalayas still has my heart in a chokehold, the Dandenongs became my weekly nervous system defrag, and jumping into Jacq’s speaking world cracked my routine wide open and handed me a whole new room of people, craft, and courage. I also tell on myself, hard. How I can preach 'white belt energy' and 'you might have to get worse before you get better', then the second it’s go time I’m like... hell no, delete my calendar, fake my death. I went anyway... nearly pulled the pin, got terrified, did it scared, and reminded myself for the millionth time that the fear doesn’t go away because it matters. Then it gets real real. I share the gut-punch of loss, and the strange, brutal beauty of letting grief exist without sprinting away from it. That reminder I keep coming back to in the philosophy that perhaps the good matches the bad in equal measure (and vice versa). We don’t get to numb one without numbing the other. So, I’m trying be conscious to stay present for the whole messy thing.

Well, this one was a ride. Tom Nash rolled into the studio with zero limbs, two hooks, a pirate vibe, and honestly one of the sharpest senses of humour I've ever tried to keep up with. We covered everything from meningococcal to martinis to Sharknado (yeah, you read that right) and somehow landed on life philosophy that was equal parts hilarious and profound. He talked me through losing all four limbs at 19 like he was describing a flat tyre, then dropped these ridiculous one-liners that had me lolling my heart out. And in the next breath he’s unpacking responsibility, identity, adaptation, and why sweating the small stuff is sometimes exactly the point. This chat was chaotic in the best possible way... funny, deep (even though he swears he’s not deep), and full of these moments that sneak up and smack you right in the perspective. Strap in.

Jamie Stedman is back in the saddle and we waste zero time going deep. We pick up where we left off last time - shitty childhood, DV, nearly dying, Steve Irwin, all of it - and drop straight into the messy stuff that shapes how we love, parent and show up. Jamie and I talk about the difference between 'getting over it' and just 'getting through it,' why the language we use around our own pain quietly scripts our whole story, and what happens when girls grow up tightroping for acceptance then end up accepting breadcrumbs from blokes who mistake control for love. We unpack coercive control, DV, cops, courts, locker room 'jokes,' Andrew Tate nonsense, and why real love is making someone feel safe enough to leave, not scared enough to stay. We also talk kids, marriage, ego, masks, curiosity and the tiny moments of change he sees in the men’s behaviour change room that keep him doing the work. It’s raw, it’s big, it’s uncomfortable in all the ways it needs to be. Bring your brain, your heart and maybe a mouthguard.

Mate… this conversation with Mel lit me up. She is a walking spark plug, a human espresso shot, the Energiser Bunny with better lipstick. I knew she had a big story but holy hell, sitting across from her and hearing the layers, the grit, the heartbreak, the humour, the joy… it hit different. We talked about growing up in chaos, carrying responsibilities no kid should ever carry, and somehow finding a way to build compassion instead of bitterness. We talked about addiction, foster care, cutting hair for people who literally have nothing, prison programs, walking the streets with zero fear and an ocean of heart. Mel shares stories that'll crack you open and stories that'll stitch you back together two minutes later. This one is humanity on full display. Messy. Beautiful. Wild.

Today I sat down with the absolute pocket rocket that is Heidi Horne and we went everywhere from kids having meltdowns to middle aged women building apps and writing books. Heidi is an author, speaker, coach and mum who has spent years teaching everyone from tiny humans to stressed out adults how to actually reset, not just talk about it. We talk about why kids are basically little mirrors for our own emotional tantrums, how easily they love, how quickly they connect, and how much we shut that down once we grow up and get 'sensible'. Heidi shares how she’s gone from tour guiding around the world to teaching meditation, building her One Minute Reset app, writing her second book and throwing herself into founder land at 50 with a bunch of cool tech kids. We jam on energy, friendships, shiny object syndrome, being 'addicted to busy', why boundaries are a spiritual practice, and what happens when you finally start backing yourself 100 percent instead of chasing crumbs. There is imposter syndrome, there is sport, there is hockey with teenage boys, there is a lot of laughing and a fair bit of truth. If you need practical ways to stress less, reset fast and find your childlike spark again, this one will land.

Holy moly, this convo with Dr Libby lit me up like a kid on red cordial. Every time she’s on the show I swear my brain grows three sizes and suddenly wants to eat more iron. We covered everything from perimenopause mayhem to the way adrenaline hijacks our days, to why half of us are out here living like exhausted, over-stimulated, iron-deficient potatoes. And honestly, Libby is so bloody good at weaving science with soul (#SeeWhatIDidThere) that I find myself wanting to text every woman I know and go “hey babe, get your ferritin checked.” We talked about winter blues, our fried nervous systems, the addiction to being ‘fine,’ the privilege of being alive, and the tiny practices that actually change our chemistry. It was deep, honest, hilarious, and wildly grounding.If you want less chaos, more energy, a calmer brain and a reminder you’re not broken... this one’s a must-listen.

Maaaate, I thought I was ready for this one. I really did. I’ve heard Jason speak. I know the shape of his story. But sitting down with him in this format was a completely different beast. If you think you've heard some rough rides on this show, this one takes it up a level... There’s something about the way he unpacks his life - the trauma, the chaos, the faith, the identity stuff - that just hits different when it’s not on a stage… just him, sitting across from you telling the truth exactly as he knows it. And mate, it lands. Hard. Every answer felt like it came from a deeper place than the question. There were moments where I could almost feel what he was about to say before he said it. This episode isn’t heavy for the sake of heavy. It’s powerful. It’s clarifying. It’s weirdly hopeful. And it reminded me why stories like Jason’s matter... not because they’re dramatic, but because they show what’s possible when someone decides their past doesn’t get to call the shots. Buckle up.

Ever wonder if you’re being too hard on yourself… or not hard enough? Welcome to the club. In this episode Harps and I throw ourselves into the old messy middle where self-improvement meets self-compassion. We call out the way we talk to ourselves and question when does the “you’ve got this” turn into delusion, and when 'being honest' becomes you verbally drop-kicking your own soul.

Leon Purton strolled in for a chat in today's ep and we tumbled straight into that familiar territory you and I love... identity, leadership, masks, messy middles, self-belief, crucible moments, and why so many of us chase gold stars instead of growth. Leon unpacked how the Air Force shaped him, how a divorce cracked him open, how perfection cost him connection, and how he rebuilt himself by dropping armour instead of adding more. We danced through stories about boxing, leadership, values, and those little internal kids in us who just want a pat on the head. And mate… did we hit some big realisations about self-belief, surrender, stillness, and the weird way life forces you to grow in directions you never would’ve picked from the safety of your twenties. It was honest, warm, insightful, vulnerable, and bloody funny. A proper good yarn… I hope you love it!

This one starts with the world's best cookies and ends with an existential gut check, which feels just about right for Roll With The Punches. I'm chatting with Dr Dinesh Palipana, who just casually happens to be a doctor, researcher, advocate, Australian of the Year and absolute legend who is also living with a spinal cord injury after a car accident at 25. We talk about growing up in Sri Lanka between Buddhism and Catholicism, and how that shaped his whole view on identity, labels and what actually matters. He is disarmingly funny, brutally honest and annoyingly humble. We get into discipline, temptation, materialism, food as a sensory lifeline after injury, grief for the body he once had, and the gratitude he feels now simply to wake up in Australia, talk about cookies and not be in a war zone without care. We talk presence, civility, social media, mums as superheroes, his book and the TV series in the works. It is equal parts cookies, poo jokes, philosophy and perspective. I loved this chat. I've a feelin' ya'll will too.

This one hit me right in the feels. Sally Pymer and I went full circle... from addiction and trauma to the power of one simple, radical act: smiling. What started as a keynote-writing journey turned into Sally birthing this contagious 'Smiles with Sally' movement that’s flooding social media (and the Bendigo Times) with genuine human connection. We unpacked how a smile can break barriers in hospitals, shift the mood in a room, and ripple into kindness that keeps going. Sally opened up about her own story - growing up with fear, loss, and the drive to prove her worth through exercise - only to discover what she’d really been running from. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s a bloody brilliant reminder that we’re all carrying invisible stories beneath the surface.

Janine Shepherd. Holy snapping ducksh*t, where do I even start? This woman’s story isn’t just about resilience, it’s about rebirth. From Olympic hopeful to being hit by a truck and told she’d never walk again… to becoming a pilot, flying instructor, and now deep in her PhD on the in-between spaces of life - literally and spiritually. We spoke about that space between life and death (yeah, she took a trip there) - what she saw, how she came back, and the powerful choice she made to live again... not despite her disability, but because of it. We unpacked identity, forgiveness, shame, spirituality, language, and what it means to consciously re-story your life when the old one falls apart. Honestly, this has got to be one of my favourite kind of chats! You'll love her.

As my feet begin to hit the ground after last week's speaking event I landed in this very human chat on resilience, the kind you actually feel in your bones, with Harps. We opened with the usual chaos, long nails, zero filters, and shenanigans... and from there we went straight into the good stuff. We talked about walking your talk when life is messy, why personal development isn’t a brand but a practice, and how sometimes life is just a total you-know-what and you still need to show up for an hour and be amazing. I shared the behind the scenes on my keynote build, the resistance (oh yeah, there was plenty of that), the almost pull-out, and the moment it all clicked. We swapped stories on freezing, failing, riding the wave anyway, and choosing the room that grows you, not the room that claps for you. It’s raw, honest, and actually useful.

I sat down with Matt Formston and came away both humbled and absolutely wired. Matt’s story is next level... losing most of his sight as a kid, getting shoved into hard places, then using all of that grit to become a world class athlete, speaker, executive and dad. We talk about the ugly bits too... getting lost for a decade, raging at bullies, and learning to stop fighting everyone. There are mad moments, breath holds of nearly six minutes, big wave surfing, and his plan to chase freediving records... but the gold is in the practical stuff: accountability, ruthless time management, making plans from your future self back to today, and the quiet daily work that actually moves the needle. This is raw, useful, and weirdly comforting. If you want a blueprint for owning your life, not waiting for permission, and getting really good at the hard stuff, this convo is for you, kids.

Dr Cam McDonald is back, and we’re diving deep into what really drives behaviour... in kids, classrooms, and us grown-ups too. Cam breaks down how stress, environment, movement, food, and connection shape focus and behaviour. We unpack why punishment doesn’t work, why every kid (and adult) has their own 'best learning environment,' and how the right kind of AI could transform education - not by replacing teachers, but by helping them understand what each student actually needs. We also talk trauma, physiology, and why you literally can’t heal if you’re stressed. This one’s a fascinating mash-up of neuroscience, compassion, and common sense with plenty of light-bulb moments.

I’ve known Holly since the boxing gym days when she was belting pads like an absolute weapon. Now she’s the founder of Wable, a social app built for neurodivergent humans to find love, friends, work and real support. We talk couch-to-global-startup, capital raises, late nights pitching investors from the car, imposter noise, and the grit it takes to keep moving when you’re wrecked. She shares the crap bits too… the sexism, the self-worth rollercoaster, and why empathy and obsession might be a founder’s real edge. We also go there on domestic violence and how speaking up can shift shame into strength. Holly’s humble, sharp, a downright legend, and building something that actually changes lives.

I sat down with Keith Banks and, mate, what a ride. From joining the cops at 17 to going deep undercover in the 70s drug world, then tactical ops, corruption, grief, survivor guilt, and the long road out of PTSD. We got into the messy middle most people skip over… the drinking to sleep, the hypervigilance, the identity crash, and the moment a stranger handed him a psychiatrist’s card that changed everything. This one’s about the real cost of being the tough one, why empathy and vigilance can coexist, and how vulnerability is not just a buzzword, but the way back. If you’ve ever tried to white-knuckle your way through pain, this ep will land.

Kel’s back from Italy, jet lagged and pasta-happy, and we get into the real guts of confidence. We talk travel as a reset, ditching the Apple Watch, eating the damn spaghetti, and remembering how good life feels when you stop performing and just live it. Kel shares how she went from second-guessing herself to using her voice at work, online, and in life. We get honest about external validation, doing it scared, and why the action often has to arrive before the feeling. It’s warm, human, a bit cheeky, and a solid reminder that confidence is less sparkle, more reps.

This one’s a raw and real continuation of the chat Mark and I had in episode 952. Mark’s back in the hot seat talking burnout, identity and doing the bloody work when your brain would rather watch cats play piano. We unpack the homework his coach set him, how much of his worth had hitched itself to work, and what it takes to sit in the mess without judging yourself. We talk fear of loss, walking your talk, Ben and Jerry’s, and why writing it down is where the truth shows up. For me, it was a mirror. For him, it was a line in the sand. Small shifts. Long game. Less performing. More honest living.

I think you know the gist by now... Bobby and I have fallen into quite the rhythm of kicking off every podcast with an unlikely chat about cats, but once we get that out of the way we launch into a fun banter on all things comedy, keynotes, keeping your pants on (maybe), and learning new skills. Enjoy!

When oncology nurse and mum of three, Lauren Rayner, found a lump on her neck, she never imagined it would flip her world upside down. Diagnosed with a rare and aggressive stage 4 neuroendocrine carcinoma, she was given 14 months to live - but Lauren wasn’t having it. In this raw and powerful chat, she shares what it’s like being both the nurse and the patient, why she calls Australia’s health system “the Hunger Games of cancer,” and how she ended up in Germany fighting for her life with treatments that aren’t even available here. Today, her scans show no evidence of disease. This one’s about hope, advocacy, and the fight to stay alive in a bullsh*t system that doesn’t make it easy.

Mark LeBusque dropped back in for an impromptu chat this week and we went straight to the guts of it. He’s had a massive year, hit burnout, and is here to say it out loud. We unpacked the quiet creep of overdoing it, nervous systems on the red line, the ego hit when your worth is tied to your work, and the awkward bit where you’re the person who teaches this stuff and still end up cooked. Right now, Mark's pulling guitars off the wall again, doing more local, less travel, and finding joy that isn’t tied to invoices. It’s honest, a bit messy, and very human. Regulation over hustle. Enough over more. And I have a feeling it's a chat that will be relatable to many right now.

Dr Bruce Perry is back! Every time I chat with him, I end up walking away with my head spinning (in the best possible way). This time we’re unpacking why everyone feels so bloody fried right now... and well, how doom scrolling, violent content on our feeds, and the pressure to be 'resilient' 24/7 sure isn't helping. Bruce explains why our brains literally can’t function properly when we’re overloaded, and why the 'do hard shit' version of resilience is rubbish. Real resilience is built like strength training - small doses, spaced out, with recovery in between. We also get into dissociation and how it can save your life in trauma but also be a creative superpower... plus why so many of us are stuck in relational poverty even though we’re more 'connected' than ever. This chat will change the way you think about toughness, trauma, and how you look after yourself in a world that just won’t slow down.

My third place, the St Kilda PCYC, is closing its doors after more than 75 years, and it hit me harder than I expected. That gym wasn’t just a space to train, it was where strangers became mates, where effort felt like belonging, and where so many versions of me have walked in and out over the past decade and a half. Waking up to that news felt like grief – the same kind of ache I’ve felt losing people and pets I loved. Bobby and I dig into what third places really mean – those spots beyond home and work that anchor us, give us identity, and connect us to something bigger than ourselves. We talk about why losing them feels like losing part of who we are, why care and community should never be treated as side notes, and how the walls that hold us become woven into our story. If you’ve ever had a place that felt like home the moment you walked in, or lost one that left a hole in your chest, this conversation will hit home. It’s about belonging, grief, and the reminder that people and places shape us far more than we realise.

Kylie Lynch came in swinging on all things women's sport, and I’m all for it. VFLW player, coach, and host of the 4TG podcast, she’s using an ACL year to build leaders, not excuses. We talk identity beyond the jersey, why your mind is your gym, and how choosing purpose can look like a 60k pay cut that actually buys your life back. Kylie breaks down permission vs initiative, the trap of chasing linear 'success,' and why coaching the person beats chasing stats. We dig into women’s sport as a smart investment, not a sympathy project, the culture shift needed on and off the field, and what real leadership looks like when you blend feminine and masculine styles with zero ego. Oh and my fave… sport as a rehearsal space for life. Mouthguard in, gals!

Dr. Carrie Jones isn’t just another voice in the hormone space... she’s been prescribing and teaching HRT for over 20 years, and it shows. In this episode we cover some epic ground when it comes to perimenopause and hormone replacement therapy with straight talk on what works, what doesn’t, and why so many women are being dismissed or mismanaged. We dig into the real differences between bioidentical vs synthetic hormones, why progesterone is usually the first to decline, how testosterone fits into women’s health, and the messy reality of managing symptoms when cycles start shifting all over the shop. Dr. Carrie shares the side effects to look out for, what doctors often get wrong, and why it’s okay (sometimes necessary) to 'cheat' on your GP. If you’ve ever wondered whether HRT is safe, whether you're too young, too old, when's the best time to start, or why you’re still feeling flat on it, this is the conversation you've been waiting for.SPONSORED BY TESTART FAMILY LAWYERS Website: testartfamilylawyers.com.au CARRIE JONES Website: drcarriejones.com TIFFANEE COOK Linktree: linktr.ee/rollwiththepunches/ Website: tiffcook.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/tiffaneecook/ Facebook: facebook.com/rollwiththepunchespodcast/ Instagram: instagram.com/rollwiththepunches_podcast/ Instagram: instagram.com/tiffaneeandcoSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We set out to talk deadlifts and gym bro nonsense… but before I knew it, we’d skipped the weights entirely and started lifting something way heavier - the big questions of faith, spirituality, and existence itself. What began as banter turned into a deeply honest dive into Harps’ innermost thoughts on God... from religious upbringings to strange unexplainable moments, and the kind of conversation that rarely make it to the mic.

Mel Knuckey jumped on to share a hell of a story. Tasmanian mum of two. Community worker. Sleepless for weeks. Misdiagnosed. Admitted. ECT to survive. And the part that lit both of us up... no one checked perimenopause until a therapist suggested it. Mel gets raw about the psych ward, the guilt, the rebuild with her kids, and the power of HRT to pull her back to herself.

Bloody hell, what a ride this one was. Grant Dooley took me from Melbourne’s west to warships in Shanghai, from the embassy floor during the Jakarta bombing to the guilt of changing a flight that later went down in flames. He’s worn Navy blues, translated in Chinese, raised kids under razor wire, carried survivor’s guilt, and poured it all into his memoir Bomb Season in Jakarta. This chat cracked open resilience, trauma, the weight of silence, and the relief of finally speaking the unspeakable.

Want to get stronger, fitter, and stop faffing around aimlessly at the gym? Well, here's an ep on some of the more intermediate to advanced concepts around strength and conditioning with a little Q & A with Harps. We cover things like training volume, hypertrophy, the difference between strength and power rep ranges, and little sneaky tweaks like time under tension and pause reps that make your muscles hate you in the best way. We’ll walk you through free weights verses machines, how to use periodization to stop plateauing, why recovery is essential if you don’t want to burn out, what about cardio (yes, you still need it), how to test your one-rep max without wrecking yourself, and what it really takes to move past beginner level.

Some weeks you’re just over yourself, right? That was me this week, and funnily enough that’s exactly what Kel and I ended up diving into. We talked about those little moments where you trip over your own mental shoelaces - anxiety flares, self-sabotage, second-guessing yourself - and how bloody human that is. We riffed on slowing down to speed up, breaking up with data and devices (yes, I may have dumped my smartwatch mid-chat), and finding ways to actually get out of our own way so we can show up as who we really are. Kel shared how she’s flipping anxiety on its head, I got honest about my own patterns of busy-ness and loneliness, and together we landed on the idea that feelings aren’t facts... and small reps are what actually shift things.
