I wasn't a big fan of sleep...or recovery...or anything that remotely felt like the world was slowing down. Sound familiar?!

Jessica Spendlove has been at the pinnacle of physical performance, working as the leading dietitian & consultant for some of the biggest professional sports teams in Australia.

Her observations since stepping into the white-collar world have led her to conclude that business people seem to be the only ones who DON'T get the importance of recovery!

This is an up-front, and quite brilliant chat that had me become a big fan of Jessica. Her latest book 'For The Long Run' is a real eye-opener, and will get you assessing your sentiment towards recovery immediately. I'm telling you now, however much you think you know its effects on performance...it ain't enough!

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 Sleep Boring...Or The Key To Success? - Jessica Spendlove - Author, Leading Performance Dietitian

Social media has been a contentious issue for years now, but when you have players like this guy still in the fight there will always be hope!

Bailey Robinson is the founder of 23rd Street, one of the fastest growing firms in Australia. With multiple awards, including an appearance in the AFR Top 100 Fast Starters, he'd be forgiven for being a big ball of ADHD. But the guy is just a wave of calm in a sea of chaos, and in this chat we spoke about his trip through early business ownership, as well as unpacking some of the biggest slip ups that he sees for service-business operators in social medial.

I feel like we barely scratched the surface with this guy, he's a top lad & his accolades are clearly warranted!

Life Isn't Scripted, So Why Are We?! - Bailey Robinson, Founder - 23rd Street Media

There are certain humans on this planet that eminate an undeniable aura, the kind that you can't help but gravitate to. When I met Robin Banks earlier this year, I met a human that not only has an aura, but a joy that needs to be experienced.

But this chat went in directions that NEITHER of us expected, including a hilarious technical fail when Robin riffed while on mute! We put our minds together & had an amazing conversation about key facets of life that hold us all back, including 'fear' as a concept that is popularly known as a bad thing.

But the acronym that is tremendously popular in the remedying of fear - False Evidence Appearing Real (F.E.A.R) was brought into question, and the conclusion we came to was a lot of fun!

I guarantee that you WILL want to follow Robin after this episode, so catch his Linkedin here and take a look at his resources!

Is The Acronym F.E.A.R. A Load Of Crap?! - Robin Banks, Mind Power Expert

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.
