If anything the last few years have taught us, it's that we can't rely on life to be overly predictable! But as Christian O'Connell highlights in his latest book 'Unscript - The Radical Act Of Being Yourself', maybe it was the predictability that was causing the issues all along...!

This conversation was one that had both of us reflecting on a whole bunch of stuff - from conforming to popular narratives, the anxiety of keeping up appearances, and being faced with having to start again.

And now, as the host of Australia's first ever NATIONAL breakfast radio show (because most are state-based for those not in Australia) on Gold FM, Christian reveals why it is so important for us to become 'undefended' in the persuit of whatever success looks like for each of us.

Performing well and actually feeling good are two very different things. Success Curious is where that gap gets explored out loud. Andy Reid built a multi-million-dollar business before 30 and was named Australia's #1 auctioneer in 2022 — and still had to learn that the hard way.

Each episode is a real, unscripted conversation — with Paralympians, entrepreneurs, criminal lawyers, authors and everyday people who've had to rebuild their own definition of success — built around four things: Energy, Identity, Optimism, Practicality. It's the companion podcast to Andy's book of the same name, and part of Success Curious's wider mission to help make the world feel good again.

New episodes twice monthly. Full video episodes on YouTube (Andy Reid Coaching). Follow along on Instagram & Facebook @success_curious. More at andyreid.com.au.
