Have you ever been in conversations that had your mind firing all over the place?!

This chat went in a couple of directions that NONE of us expected! Dara Simkin (Culture Hero) and Tane Hunter (Future Crunch) are two dynamic individuals, and this was a fun ride!

Co-authors of the incredible book 'Full Stack Human', Dara & Tane shone with their level of intellect, an amazing amount of passion & their natural will to want more for their fellow humans.

We dove into various parts of the book, as well as why fun could well be the key ingredient for success.

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.

Is FUN the real key to success? - Dara Simkin & Tane Hunter, Co-authors - 'Full Stack Human'

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.

The fortune I find myself to have someone of Cherie's calibre & intellect join me...well it makes me happy!

Cherie Mylordis is a leadership coach & founder of the Nextgenify academy, and my word had some pearls of wisdom for us around how leaders can blend the varying versions of success that team members, family, friends, & those that depend on us to drive the ship that they are sailing on.

We went in a few differnet directions (as usual), but what I love about Cherie was that she clearly had an incredible amount of awareness, especially around how different age groups are wired when it comes to success.

And FYI - pay attention to the part when she digs into her '3D's' of leadership, THEY ARE GOLD!
