In this episode, Craig Harper and I delve into the fascinating realm of humans being enamoured with beauty and appearance, exploring the underlying evolutionary drivers. We unravel the concept that we are essentially high-level primates driven by ingrained behavioral traits and influenced by the contagious nature of societal norms. 

And my ever-present curiosity around the intricacies of personal transformation, aiming to understand why we change when we eventually decide to embrace it, and not a moment sooner, despite our all too often prolonged desire for change.

Life hits hard. Good. So do we.
Roll With The Punches is a front-row seat to the messy, beautiful, brutal bits of being human.

Hosted by Tiff Cook - former boxer, coach, speaker, rascal, and someone who’s copped a few uppercuts from life and keeps getting back up. She sits down with global survivors, scientists, rebels, rockstars, and everyday legends to ask one thing:

What does it really take to get back up when life drops you?

We talk breakdowns, breakthroughs, big truths, and the bullsh*t we all carry. Behind the masks. Beneath the armour. Real conversations that crack something open in all of us.

We’re built to break.
And we become dangerous by design.
Honest work over hard work. Every damn time.

High Level Primates Enamoured With Beauty | Craig Harper - 731

This ep started with Craig giving an unsolicited TED Talk on fibre, psyllium husk and bowel movements... and somehow ended with us talking about grief, emotional avoidance, ageing parents, self-awareness and what it actually means to process life's hard stuff.

It's perhaps one of the most honest chats I've had in a while as I shared some of the things I've been wrestling with lately... losing a client to suicide, watching people age, and the weird gap between understanding what's happening intellectually and actually feeling it emotionally. Harps, (fortunately for me) had plenty to say about grief, fear, empathy, self-regulation and the difference between knowing something and actually living it.

It's a conversation about being human. About not always getting it right. About carrying things we don't fully understand yet. And about trying to show up well when life feels messy, complicated and a little bit uncomfortable.

Also, if you're struggling to poo, Harps has some advice for that too.

Emotional Constipation | Harps & Cook - 1027

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/ad02b3e6-ed0c-4b91-86e4-b46c00338a0d/transcript

In this episode I sat down with the bloody brilliant Holly Bailey, founder of Play Like A Girl, and honestly, this one felt like watching a mate realise she’s not just building a 'thing' anymore. She’s building (and built) a movement.

We talked about her recent corporate golf day event, the surreal moment of seeing her work reflected back through other people’s pride, and the weirdness of sitting inside something enormous while still feeling like the little human behind the curtain trying to keep the wheels on.

Holly shared where Play Like A Girl really began, from her own moment in netball when a coach basically held up a mirror and showed her she had been limiting herself, to the years of workshops, networking, advisory boards, scholarship models, commercial conversations, self-doubt, learning curves, and “do it before you’re ready” moments that turned a passion project into a national community.

We got into sport, leadership, identity, confidence, women backing themselves, and the bigger idea that sport is not just about medals, winning, or being the best little weapon on the field. It’s about belonging. Confidence. Resilience. Connection. Learning who the hell you are.

And how... "Girls who play sport become women who lead." BOOOM!

Bloody ripper of a chat with a woman I am VERY proud to call a mate.

Do It BEFORE You're Ready | Holly Bailey - 1026

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/0446e474-f90b-4722-8a3e-b464007e3bd2/transcript

In this episode I sit down with Professor Linda Byrne, clinical neuropsychologist and Dean of the Cairnmillar Institute, to unpack what’s going on in the world of psychology, neuropsychology, mental health care, and the messy intersection of labels, titles, coaches, influencers, algorithms, and self-diagnosis floating around out there.

We get into the difference between psychologists, neuropsychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists, and coaches, which is handy because, let’s be honest, the mental health world can feel like a word salad with a Medicare rebate attached at times, aye.

Linda also explains the proposed changes to psychology training in Australia and why she’s worried that trying to pump out more psychologists faster might actually backfire. More access sounds great, obviously, but not if we end up lowering training standards, losing experienced providers, or still failing to get psychologists into the rural and regional areas where they’re desperately needed.

Then we wander, as I do, into ADHD, neurodiversity, social media diagnosis, algorithmic nonsense, learned helplessness, labels, identity, and whether a diagnosis becomes wings for freedom or an anchor that keeps us stuck.

It’s a really thoughtful, nuanced chat about reform, responsibility, self-awareness, and the importance of not outsourcing our entire sense of self to a reel that says “five signs you’re definitely ADHD.” Bloody algorithms, mate. Always stirring the pot.
