    In this episode Michael interviews a past client and now friend Daniel Tropeano. Less than a handful of years ago, Daniel almost lost his family and was living an unsustainable life driven by dopamine-seeking behaviour and choices. Until one day it all came crashing down around him. Realising his mistake, he voluntarily became a student of himself and set himself on the path to become who he is now. A loving, married father of 2 boys connected deeply to his anchoring core values, living his well defined purpose for life and continually upgrading the version of him that he brings to the world. Daniel is a shining, living, breathing example of what it means to do the work and live a life he previously only dreamed about and believed impossible Join The Training Ground - https://www.facebook.com/groups/1864049460329729 Free download of the Forging Excalibur Book - https://ebook.forgingexcalibur.com.au/ Find us on all your favourite social media - @forgingexcaliburSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With Adam at the helm as the band's iconic front man, Chocolate Starfish earned two Top 10 singles and two Top 5 albums, with Gold and Platinum album sales for their self-titled debut. This album spawned their number one hit, “You're So Vain”, and Top 5 hit “Mountain”, and earned them an Australian Music Award (ARIA) for Most Popular Album of 1994.Adam also released a solo album, Reconnected, the captivating, multi-hued product of six years of growth and introspection following the disbanding of Chocolate Starfish.Acclaimed for his powerful voice and potent lyrics, Adam won regular praise as ‘the consummate rock ‘n' roll front man'. ‘If there's an audience he'll play up to them, if there's a balcony he'll climb it, if there's energy in the room, he'll milk it,' wrote a critic for style magazine Black + White. Social responsibility plays a major role in Adam's life, and it was during the writing of Reconnected that Adam came up with the concept of a music program that was capable of engaging groups of people from every kind of background and life experience in a creative exploration of themselves – from there MusoMagic was born.

The changes in brain functioning, personality, and emotional processing (along with other intense personal experiences such as childhood sexual abuse, exposure to Cluster B Personality Disorders) created an obsession-like need to understand and confirm these experiences, and served as motivation to go back to school and work in the field of psychology.
