"We're living a constant paradox. Scientifically we're living in a Universe that's full of stuff but is totally empty, it messes with you." — Daniel Habedank on Please Blow My Mind We know our bodies become overweight when we don't watch what we eat and find excuses not to move our bodies around. Ultimately we know where that ends up... nowhere good. Is it possible that just like our bodies become overweight, that our minds can as well? What would Mental Obesity look like and how would you know if you had it? In this episode my guest, Daniel Habedank joins me to ponder just how many of us might be suffering from carrying too much extra 'weight' around in our minds? We also get into a heated debate about what it means to fast our bodies or choose not to eat food when so many people around the world are starving and don't have the choice to eat.

One of the very interesting things about creating a weekly podcast and facilitating long-form conversations is that you start to notice through-lines in Humanity. I've talked to plenty of people who will tell you that there is no God and I've also spoken to an equal amount that will tell you that there is. It seems to me that we are all talking about something, call it faith or spirituality, or belief or nothing - we are all talking about something.  I call it the unknown and I have started to leave a little bit open in my thinking to this unknown. It's weird to say that I leave a little bit to the unknown as most things are actually unknow. You don't know most people in the world, you don't know most things about most stuff but we do know enough to know that we don't know. My good pal, Greg Buckley and I love talking about the mystical and all the intricacies in life and this week I invite him on the podcast to talk about what it's like to have faith in today's world. I invite you to join us in a deep conversation and ask yourself, what is it you have faith in?

Guinness World Record holder, Gareth Edwards climbed to the peak of the abyss both mentally and physically when he flipped a tyre with his mate, Tom Moore for 24-hours non-stop. What most people focus on when someone does something mind-blowing like this is how it must feel to reach the pinnacle of excellence and the lessons and learning from pushing yourself to the edge. What everybody forgets to think about is what it’s like coming down off that peak and what awaits you when you get home. In this episode of Please Blow My Mind with Will Fleming, Gareth talks about the hole that was left open after the Guinness World Record attempt as well as some of the feelings he has had to work through to redefine meaning post-peak. This podcast will help you navigate your own feelings of what it means to aim for something really big and what happens when you actually make it and what to do after life returns to normal.

We are often told to ‘speak up’ and ‘use our voice’ but for many of us, the reality is that we spend way more time articulating ourselves in the digital realm instead of real-life and as we are finding out, not communicating is having catastrophic consequences in our modern world. Daryl Habraken uses his voice as a tool, as his instrument, he uses his voice for a living and in my opinion is one of the best people to talk to about the complicated society that we live in today. In scary times maybe the best people to listen to are the people that talk for a living.

When it gets down to the basics, what is meaning and how do you have a meaningful life? For many people, Jordan Peterson and his lectures and books like, 12 Rules for Life, offer many people a way to get a glimpse at what a ‘good life’ might look like. For others, it seems that he is poisoning the minds of society and spreading pseudoscience to the masses. For me, his message is one of hope, faith, and belief in yourself even when all the chips are down and you are left with nothing. At his Auckland lecture, I was amazed at how he kept a crowd of 1,529 zoned in, inflow, with deep conversations about life and our place in it. In episode 39 of Please Blow My Mind with Will Fleming, I ask Jordan Peterson the one question I ask all of my guests, “What is the one moment in life that blew your mind?” His answer blew my mind!
