Costa Georgiadis is the 2019 Logie Award-winning host (Best Presenter) of ABC's Gardening Australia. Costa is a landscape architect who has an all-consuming passion for plants and people – he knows how to bring out the best in both of them! Costa is committed to communities and to gardening both the soil and the soul. Costa is very excited to be an Ambassador for Neighbour Day. “I'm stoked to be an Ambassador for Neighbour Day. I really love to see communities come together and what's so simple about the day is you don't have to go far to have fun! Getting together with your neighbours or your local community is fantastic for lots of reasons. I know because it's something that I do every day in communities all around the country, including my own. Getting to know your neighbours over a cuppa or a barbie can lead to lifelong friendships or just feeling more secure in your neighbourhood. I see friendships formed over community gardens week in and week out. Verge gardens, pocket parks, laneways…you name it. Families, kids, adults and elders are nurturing their environment and growing things for the birds, insects and people to share. It's not just the plants that are growing in the garden, people are too. They are connecting with one another, all ages together. So I want to encourage everyone to get out there this Neighbour Day. Talk to your neighbours, host a morning tea or a barbeque, get together in the garden – anything will do. It's a perfect excuse to start spreading some positivity and community spirit around your neighbourhood. It's all about the ‘L' word .. LOCAL! Live it, Love it…” Costa Georgiadis Neighbour Day Ambassador

Once upon a time, there was a girl who lived where snowy peaks scraped the sky. Her name was Aisholpan. For generations, Kazakh nomads in Mongolia raised golden eagles to hunt. Aisholpan’s father was one of the best eagle hunters, so she asked him to teach her everything he knew. Despite the danger, she caught and trained her own eagle in the icy Altai mountains. She became the first woman to enter the Golden Eagle competition—and win!—inspiring female eagle hunters for years to come.Sponsored by: www.rebelgirls.coUse promocode REBELPODCAST to get 15% off your first purchase!About the Narrator:Lowri Morgan is an accomplished broadcaster, ultra-athlete and motivational speaker.

KEY TAKEAWAYS •If you work hard, you'd get results. Period. Regardless of whether it's fitness, whether it's your eating, your diet or doing what you do, learning how to work... • That's a gift to not compare yourself to anybody else and understand that you have unique talents and purpose, and you're meant to be who you are. •“I'm different, but I'm okay.” So, using people to make you want to be a better version of you. •It's about having the self-awareness to know what you're good at and what you're not good at. And double in talent the things that you're good at. And investing so much time and energy into that. Know that it's pointless to try and be someone else. •Everyone is projecting who they perceive you to be or what they want you to do unto you. That's a natural human trait. •To be defined by what you do is unfortunately what happens now. The minute people decide that you're one thing, they want you to stay there cause they've got you figured you out. •You are not defined by anything you do or anything anyone says or any mistakes you make. •God's time is the best. When the stars align, you can feel it. And when it all feels natural. When it feels it as if it was meant to happen at that time, it's undeniable, and that's where things are beginning to go. •If you don't understand the power of hard work and luck, then you are completely ignoring one of the two because you can't have success without both. •You have to really invest in your craft. You have to become obsessed by it. And die by it. But then at the same time, if you're working as hard as you should be on the thing that you really believe and in the thing you really invested in, eventually, there will be an opening and you will be prepared for it. •If you are now self-aware, you are asking for trouble. Because you need to know yourself well enough to know what you're good at and what you're not good at. And when you're coming across in a way that maybe is putting you in the wrong direction or pushing you away from where you want to get to or pissing people off or if you're annoying people or if you're spamming people. You need to be aware enough of those things. Otherwise, you are just asking for trouble. •Know what you're good at. Be very sure about what you're not good at. And listen. I think if you are not willing to listen and if you don't have people around you that are honest and transparent, you're going to be in trouble. •If you can't control your own emotions, how are you going to direct your own staffs' emotions. How are you able to going to be able to look after your customers if you can't control yours? •Empathize with someone else and put yourself in their shoes. That's the beginning of starting to see yourself through someone else's eyes. And that's the really important thing is being able to step outside and say, hang on, how did what I just did make everyone feel? How did what I just say affect the room negative or positively? •Being so empathetic and finding that level of connection, they give so much and that's a really delicate thing to have in your hands and it's something that you have to respect. •The only two transcendent emotions that rise above all are gratitude and love. •If you give out gratitude to people, it doesn't ruin your life or derail you from your mission. It also changes the people around you. •You know when you've done something that you're going to be proud of and only you know that. •Once you've got someone relax, everything comes out. And they don't even realize it. •Ownership is everything. Owning the narrative as well as the IP is important and just as important. •What people want is honest, open, unedited, untwisted, and un-manipulated content, and I think they want easier, quicker access to the content provided. •Personal brand is just as important as the thing that you are selling. And the way that people are building businesses and very successful ones are coming from the strength of the person who is the face of the said business as opposed to how good looking they are which is in a way the right thing. It's a good thing. •Best advice. Every time you come into this room, we're going to talk stuff that relates to 3 subjects: Who you're with, where you live and what you do. Almost everything that you think about will come back to one of those three things and if you get two out of three right, you will be bouncing. If you get three out of three right, you'll be flying. •Worst advice: Don't do that thing because you are not good enough. •When someone comes to you with a weird energy or with a negative sort of outlook, a lot of the time, it is not about you. And having the empathy to understand that and respect someone in their tough times, that something that we're missing. •Being disruptive means that having the bravery to change things on your own terms. •If you are willing to do something that speaks to your authenticity and if you are willing to be transparent in who you are, then you have an opportunity to do something that's never been done before. Doing something that's never been done is the most beautiful thing in the world. And trying to replicate someone else is a recipe for failure. BEST MOMENTS “I have always been very aware where it's all headed but I've never quite known how I was going to get there. So, I've always at the back of my mind at least…” “That's kind of happen with entertainment, you're hosting The Voice one day and then a month later, you're in Kenya, making a documentary and the feeling that you have from the two are so polar opposite. You start to make a decision about where you want to spend your time and where you want to give your energy and I made that decision quite a few years ago now.” “Now, what happens, we love you. No matter what happens, you can always come home. If you lose everything…  I was never raised in that environment with that amount of investment put into my self-confidence and self-worth. I had to learn that over time. So, for the longest of time, I would be concerned about what the next thing would be. And there would be moments where I would have sort of pangs of fear, if it's going to work out or not. Deep down I always knew that I would be okay.” “Because I know that this isn't a bluff. Because nothing I've achieved has come easy. I've always known that anything that can be regarded as an achievement, I've worked my ass off for. And I am not scared of the work.” “If I didn't tell myself that I'm going to do this thing, do it even when it's difficult, I would not be where I am now.” “My individuality is my super power, and that was something that was given to me as a kid.” “I think it's the biggest waste of energy to try and control the way that other people think. You can never change someone else's mind until they decide to change it themselves, right? For me, I just am. I know what I want. And that might change tomorrow, and that's okay. But at no point am doing or being for anybody else. The people that I love and I care about, I live to help and support and be there for them but I will never be the way that they want me to be regardless of how important they are to me.” “I need to be constantly creatively shocked. Like I need to feel uncomfortable to find the inspiration to push myself and learn more. For me, if I am not learning anymore or if I am not inspired, there's no point in being there. I am not doing anyone a favor by just coasting. And at no point have I ever coasted so I've walked away from things not knowing what's coming next. And been okay.” “I genuinely feel that the only way to really exist in this world is walk on love. I feel that the energy that you carry and the energy that you bring to any situation determines the way in which that situation will go.” “The beautiful thing about ending on a question is the people watching can then have a conversation. And they then have all these different pieces off the conversation to draw from to inform their opinion. And that way, you're getting a conversation about an issue in a really beautiful authentic and rounded way as opposed to me saying this is how I feel about this and I am going to present to you 50 different people that think the same thing as me. I'm going to convince you of my opinion by the end of this hour. That is the way that a lot of journalist work. That is not how I work.” “I just really love to be able to share my experiences both in terms of success and failure. And have them understand that I'm not telling them to do what I did, I am telling them to learn from what I've done and choose to use it in the right way.” “I don't think we have enough empathy. I don't think we are willing to make time for other people's stuff. We all have stuff and everybody is carrying around stuff.” VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ https://robmoore.com/podcast/ The Disruptive Entrepreneur Community https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reggie-yates-podcast/id1425903387?mt=2 ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

Neil Patrick Harris, meanwhile, did not win Best Presenter, though perhaps failing to make it a real category was his biggest mistake.
