Michael Katsidis has a fascinating story that I can't do justice in this brief synopsis but let me tell you that it involves elite sport (including world titles and Olympic representation), childhood dreams, passion, triumph, personal tragedy, drug addiction, prison, mental health and thankfully, recovery, redemption and second chances. I really enjoyed this chat with a kindred spirit. If you don't like swearing, you'll fucking hate this. Enjoy. Or avoid.

#1608 Olympian To Inmate (To Inspiration) - Michael Katsidis

Carly Taylor is back chatting about the propensity we humans have to invest time, energy and attention into the things we can't undo, change or control, while simultaneously doing little or nothing to address and/or impact the things which are actually within our influence or control. Weird but also common. This is a very relevant and practical conversation that will resonate with many people. Enjoy.

#1637 What Are You Wasting Energy On - Carly Taylor

The title of this episode is the name of Ben Shewry's new book. It doesn't really represent the chat but I just loved the title because, over the years I've masterfully (and clumsily) turned my obsession (human behaviour) into a job, a business, a PhD Project, multiple books, a podcast and conveniently, a way to pay a few bills. If you don't know who Ben is, he is one of the most respected Chefs in the world and owner of the internationally renowned restaurant, Attica (it's been in the "World's 50 Best Restaurants' list for over a decade). Ben was my surprise interview of the last six months. I'm not sure what I expected going in to our conversation but coming out the other side, he was (is) an inspiration and revelation; deep-thinking, fiercely intelligent, creative, kind and as the title suggests, just a little obsessed. Enjoy.

#1636 Uses For Obsession - Ben Shewry

Happiness, we all want it but how do we 'get' it? Or, do we just 'be' it? How much of 'being happy' is about our mind? Situation? Bank balance? Job? And what is its relationship with things like contentment, calm, joy and the absence of anxiety? Andrew Matthews is an Australian author and international speaker who has sold more than 8 million books in 48 languages, making him one of the world's foremost authorities on the topic of happiness. I really enjoyed connecting with Andrew, and I loved the fact that his manner and energy (both on and off the podcast) was completely consistent with what he teaches. That means a lot to me. Enjoy
