After selling off and leaving the business, Tim reflected on the way we work, finding that too many of us are overworked, disengaged and apprehensive about the future of our jobs. It prompted his work on the book 'Work Backwards', looking at fulfilment through values-led actions.

In this episode, Tim details the road trips that helped spark his 'Work Backwards' movement, the research that shows how overwork is killing us and his tips for finding purpose in your work and life overall.

Jake Bailey was just like any other Year 12 student in 2015, until a persistent toothache lead to a devastating diagnosis. What doctors initially thought was Jake's wisdom teeth was actually an aggressive form of cancer invading his jaw and spreading throughout his body. Initially given just two weeks to live, an aggressive treatment plan and Jake's positive attitude saw him soon in remission and on a path to understand the psychology of resilience.

Jake Bailey's Devastating Diagnosis At Just 18

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/e0bde61c-4381-41b7-9b07-b3af01835347/transcript

Current data shows that as many as 11% of Australians will suffer from PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder at some time in their life. That figure balloons to 18% for former Australian Defence Force members. But dealing with the effects of PTSD can often feel isolating and overwhelming, and many don't seek help as a result. 

This week, I speak with retired senior Austrailan Army officer Major General Tim McOwan, AO, DSC, CSM about the realities of life in the military for our elite soldiers, the ongoing trauma that many face as a result, and the stigma of dealing with that trauma.
