00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 2: is my eleventh book. It is Fearlessly Failing. It is

Speaker 2: officially available now all over Australia Big W Target, Kmart, Dimmicks, Bookstores, QBDA, everything.

11
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 2: Thank you so much. I actually saw it just yesterday

12
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 2: at the airports. Thank you so much for all the support.

13
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 2: The aim of this series is just kind of like

14
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 2: break the book down a little bit and give you

15
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 2: a taste of it and hopefully you like it. So

16
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 2: Episode one was the introduction episode, and we did like

17
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 2: a bit of the book team. I kind of spoke

18
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 2: about a little bit behind the scenes, but because Boss

19
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 2: had already interviewed me about the whole the book process

20
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 2: as a whole, I didn't kind of go down all

21
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 2: of that stuff again because that episode already exists. And

22
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 2: then the second episode, we broke down the whole first

23
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 2: part of the book because the book's got a part

24
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 2: one or two, and now we're going to do the

25
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 2: second part of the book, which is kind of like

26
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: the physical things you can do hopefully to like launch

27
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 2: you off into chasing your dreams. So what I'll do

28
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 2: is I just kind of like give you a little

29
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 2: taste of each chapter, just like a pinch, and just

30
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 2: give you a little vibe of the book.

31
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: And if something comes up and I'm.

32
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 2: Like, oh, we actually cut this bit about this because

33
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 2: this I'll give you a little bit of behind the

34
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 2: scenes of it too. For example, even I'm just looking

35
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 2: at now, it says part two on page one of

36
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,919
Speaker 2: the book, and there's this little like underneath part two,

37
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 2: there's this little star underneath it. I did not know

38
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 2: that that is called a dingis lertjit. It's a little

39
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 2: logo star thing. And we spent so much time like

40
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 2: playing with this star, like initially it was dots and

41
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 2: then it was a flower. One I was like, I

42
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 2: don't want it to be super feminine, and so we

43
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 2: landed on a star.

44
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 1: So the dingis.

45
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure that's what they're called dingis or dingas

46
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 2: or something like that. It all sounds very dongle and penis, Like,

47
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 2: doesn't it dingus anyway? Or like a dingo maybe, but

48
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 2: it's called a dingas. They're like the little star things

49
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 2: that you'll see like at the chapter beginnings and whatnot

50
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 2: of the book. I just really shared information for no

51
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 2: real reason, just kind of a sip.

52
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: I've just made myself a little chay as we record this. Yum.

53
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: I made one for the boss so too. I got

54
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 2: given these Byron bay Chai tea bags and they're so yummy.

55
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 2: Just put hot water, dash of oat milk, put a

56
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 2: little pincher honey in it and it's just absolutely Deliciamo,

57
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 2: perfect little afternoon pick me up. Right. Oh, so this

58
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 2: chapter is called Becoming Bulletproof. The quote at the top

59
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 2: of this chapter is from one of the guests I've

60
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 2: had on the podcast who just blew me away. I

61
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 2: got Tiary in this episode and I'd never met this

62
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 2: person before in my life, and now I'm like their

63
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 2: biggest fam So this is by Zoe Tauacus, actor and activist.

64
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 2: Being gay and being trans kind of backs you into

65
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 2: a corner because you live your life knowing some people

66
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 2: don't agree with your existence and others would rather you

67
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: were dead, and so you kind of just have to

68
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 2: go fuck you. Then this is who I am. If

69
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: you don't like it, fine by me, get in line.

70
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 2: But there's a lot of people who do like it

71
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: and feel liberated by it and seen by it. So

72
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 2: fuck you, take me or leave me. I mean, Zoe Tarracus,

73
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 2: if you ever hear this, You're a legend. I really

74
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 2: really loved say Okay, So becoming Bulletproof it was actually

75
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: fun fact the working title of this book, So the

76
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: book wasn't going to be called Feelsley Failing. It was

77
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 2: going to be called called Becoming Bulletproof. But there is

78
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 2: an amazing health author in America called Dave Asbury who

79
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 2: has got a bulletproof like coined bulletproof as his kind

80
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 2: of like diet and movement, and so I was like,

81
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 2: I just don't want to step on toes, especially moving

82
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 2: into that territory myself. So we decided it felt right

83
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 2: to make it fit with the pod and I'm so wrapped,

84
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 2: really happy. I think We've landed on there. The best

85
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 2: title for this book anyway, again.

86
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: I digress. I'll read a little bit for you, right.

87
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 2: Oh.

88
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: In the first part of this.

89
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 2: Book, I've shared loads of personal stories, and we've explored fear, failure, heartbreak, grief,

90
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 2: and even death. But now it's time to get grips

91
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 2: with what it means to really become bulletproof, to step

92
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 2: into that space of becoming the captain of your own ship.

93
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 2: I think this might just be my favorite chapter of

94
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 2: the book. Oh. In the last episode, I was like, Oh,

95
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 2: human behavior in acting is my favorite chapter of the book.

96
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 2: It's funny. I think it changes and by the time

97
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 2: you finish reading it, I hope that you'll not only

98
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 2: have a better understanding of who you are, but you

99
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 2: will feel empowered, excited, and ready to fearlessly step up

100
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 2: to the plate and go after all that you wish

101
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 2: to achieve in this life, whether that's improving your health,

102
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 2: building and starting your own family, falling in love, or

103
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 2: choosing into step into the uncharted waters of going after

104
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 2: your dream career. But first things first, what makes someone

105
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 2: bulletproof and what does it even mean?

106
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: Anyway?

107
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 2: Becoming bulletproof is my mantra. It was given the working

108
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 2: to Oh, I did say that. It was even the

109
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 2: working title of this book for quite some time, and

110
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 2: something my therapist regularly checks in with me about, as

111
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 2: we have a goal to become Oh sorry, as this

112
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 2: is what I was saying the first in the first

113
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 2: episode of this series. When you trip on a word

114
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 2: when you're recording the audiobook, you have to go all

115
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 2: the way back because they edit on your breath, and

116
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 2: so you can't just like pick up the word. You've

117
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 2: got to go all their back sense, and then you're

118
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 2: in your head and then you trip on the exact

119
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 2: same thing again. So let me just try and do

120
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: that sentence a little bit again. Becoming bulletproof is my mantra.

121
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 2: It was even the working title for this book for

122
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 2: quite some time, and something that my therapist regularly checks

123
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: in with me about, as it has become a goal

124
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 2: of ours to help me navigate and hold my own

125
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 2: in the cutthroat, often crawl and confronting media industry in

126
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 2: which I work.

127
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: So, yeah, obviously, you know the media industry is.

128
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 2: Brutal, and I open up about that, and I open

129
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 2: up about like all the like failed pilots and whatnot

130
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 2: I've filmed but never got the gig. I talk about resilience,

131
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 2: hope and becoming bulletproof, and I kind of go down

132
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 2: the resilience resilience rabbit hole for a little while because

133
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: I did some research on some epic professionals in the

134
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 2: resilience world, both in Australia and in New Zealand, and

135
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 2: also the US military. They teach this thing called hunting

136
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 2: for good and it's so cool.

137
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: It's all in the book. I've written all about it.

138
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: Then I've written about pay attention.

139
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 2: And learn to go with the flow. That's harder for me.

140
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 2: But sometimes I don't go to the flow. Sometimes I'll

141
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 2: fight something and it's to my detriment. Drop the ego

142
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 2: and watch out for the fame trap, which we kind

143
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: of touched on in the last parts of part one

144
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 2: of the book. Have the courage to put yourself on

145
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 2: the line, have the work ethic to back it up.

146
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 2: Learn to practice non attachment. That one's very yogi but

147
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 2: very hard. Be kind to others and to yourself. Just

148
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 2: having a little sipo here of the old Chai one

149
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 2: seco in my Halloween mark if anyone has been watching

150
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 2: My American Adventures and so that perfect drinking temp you know,

151
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 2: and it's like hot, but not uncomfortable hot that it

152
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 2: burns the back of your throat.

153
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: Okay, So how to become bulletproof?

154
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 2: Own who you are, Be strong and grateful for what

155
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 2: you have, have hope, stay in your lane, drop the jealousy,

156
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 2: know when to draw the fucket line in the sand,

157
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 2: be honest, drop the ego, take time to fill your cup,

158
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 2: and be kind.

159
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: Curl right. So this next section is called your Toolkit.

160
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 2: So it's kind of like all the things that I've

161
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 2: tried and tested, and I tell you what I think

162
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 2: of them and what worked for me and what didn't.

163
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: I'm pretty honest.

164
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 2: And their quote at the start is by absolute legend

165
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 2: John Wooden, who I have not had on the podcast,

166
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 2: and I'm pretty sure he's no longer with us, but

167
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 2: he was an incredible basketball coaching teacher and there's so

168
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 2: many amazing TED talks that he's done, and I've just

169
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 2: written his quote is confidence comes from being prepared. John Wooden,

170
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 2: basketball coach and teacher. Definitely go down the rabbit hole

171
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 2: of watching his TED talks in credible. I saw a

172
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 2: mate on Insta that lives in LA the other day

173
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 2: he was watching I think a Lakers game, and it

174
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 2: was like called the John Wooden Court, and there was

175
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,079
Speaker 2: a one seat in the stand and all the seats

176
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 2: are blue, but there's this one golden seat and it

177
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 2: was the seat that he would always sit at.

178
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 1: After his match. Is that like he'd coached? Oh so good? Anyway,

179
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:27,079
Speaker 1: I digress, But research John woodn't. He's amazing. So this

180
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: is the bit where I go. Now, this is where

181
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: it gets fun.

182
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 2: This chapter is your bag of tricks to help you

183
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: navigate this weird and wonderful thing called life. So I

184
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 2: basically share stuff that's worked for me.

185
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: Mental health, yogs.

186
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 2: I really dive into yog so I break down like

187
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 2: the yarmas, then armors the eight limbs of yogas.

188
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 1: There's a bit of philosophy in there. Of course.

189
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 2: We touch on food nutrition, like I'm a nutritionist, so

190
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 2: I talk about a breakdown refined sugar.

191
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: Wheat, gluten, junk food, dairy.

192
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 2: So I just kind of like hit on those like

193
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 2: simple things, but like the things that I apply to

194
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 2: my own life, meditation and mindfulness. We talk about a

195
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 2: bit about breath control as well, gratitude biophilia, which is

196
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 2: like my favorite word in the entire world, which is

197
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 2: the healing power of Mother Nature on human beings. We

198
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 2: talk about energy healing like so crystals, reiki. Then we

199
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 2: talk about acupuncture, which I had the other day in

200
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 2: Byron for the first time, which is awesome. Like the

201
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 2: first time in Byron, I used to get it all

202
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 2: the time in Melbourne, Cairo, reflexology, oracle cards, tarot cards, clairvoyants,

203
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 2: hypnotherapy which I love, animal therapy, eurodology that's where you

204
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 2: read the eyes, which I am funnily enough trained in.

205
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 2: I learned that at Uni Flower essence therapy, a evader

206
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 2: which is traditional Indian medicine, which I did a couple

207
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 2: of semesters of at Uni, but I wouldn't call myself

208
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 2: an Aubadic practitioner.

209
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: It's a really cool concept though.

210
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 2: It's like they say that we've got three doses Vata,

211
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 2: bit da Gafa, and then like they've always got one dominant.

212
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 2: Mine is probably Pita dominant, and then I lean into

213
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 2: Vata when I get really spiritual and like ethereal, but

214
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 2: mainly pit us. It's really interesting, definitely looking to read

215
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 2: that bit of the book. We talk about past life regression,

216
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 2: dream work, noo, tropics, obviously I'm into them because of

217
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 2: the medicinal mushrooms in Lolla coffee, but I talk about

218
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 2: other nootropics, even like caffeine altheinine.

219
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: Creatine we talk about. And then the next chapter is

220
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: do the work.

221
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,079
Speaker 2: It's kind of like your tough love. And I got

222
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 2: an amazing radio host on the pod. His name's Tim Blackwell,

223
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 2: and he said, you don't get the job for work ethic,

224
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 2: but you keep the job for work ethic, which I

225
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 2: thought was really cool, really lovely guy too.

226
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 1: I was so nervous to interview him on the pod.

227
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 2: Now the title of this chap, now the title of

228
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 2: this chapter might sound a little bit like tough love,

229
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 2: but I promise you I'm just telling you the absolute

230
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 2: truth here from my perspective, without the sugar coating, Because

231
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 2: you know what, somedays life is hard. For professional or

232
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,679
Speaker 2: personal challenge happened, and they can hurt you, and although

233
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 2: we ultimately grow from them, it's the work that we

234
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 2: have done up to a certain point that will determine

235
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 2: what we get out of any given situation. So doing

236
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 2: the work, it's like a lot of stuff I've learned

237
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 2: from acting, is like that kind of work ethic too,

238
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: how to do the work even when you don't feel

239
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 2: like it. Learn how to be irreplaceable. That was a

240
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 2: Yogi story. Invest in some non negotiables. So I've got

241
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 2: a big list of non negotiables and I share them

242
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 2: with you. So I share you exactly my non negotiables.

243
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 2: Build your smarts is a cool one. And when we

244
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 2: were doing the audiobook of this, I realized I hadn't

245
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 2: been reading for a while, because the quickest way to

246
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 2: build your smarts is to read at night, just like

247
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 2: read a few pages of a book, and Boss and

248
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 2: I are both like, we've got a bit at our

249
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 2: smarts and started reading again. Be prepared to make sacrifices,

250
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 2: usually social ones if you're focusing on career stuff. Learn

251
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 2: to pay attention. And then I kind of like shared

252
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 2: some of my favorite yoga Sanskrit words like seir us uka,

253
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 2: the balance of strength and softness, shrata, which is like

254
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 2: faith and trusting, shuck shin to bear witness even when

255
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 2: you're standing in the fire. San culp is cool. That's

256
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 2: when you send an intention like in yogs. You do

257
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 2: it at the start of the class, but you can

258
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 2: do it anytime you want. You can do it right

259
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 2: now if you want it. You're literally just like you

260
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 2: could just be like, okay tomorrow, I want to be

261
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 2: super healthy, you know, and you just set a little

262
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 2: attention for yourself, coruna, compassion for yourself, but also for others, kindness, truth,

263
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 2: there is something non attachment.

264
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: And then you've kind of got your g up at

265
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 1: the end.

266
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 2: Like that I always give you like the bullet points

267
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 2: at the end, and then it goes into this this chapter, right, oh,

268
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 2: let's do this, and then this is cool. This is

269
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 2: Emmi lu McCarthy who's been on the POT as well,

270
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 2: and she said you're allowed to change your goal set,

271
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 2: your dreams, your hair color, your weight, you can do

272
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 2: whatever you want to do.

273
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: Really cool. She talked about choosing your hard too.

274
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 2: She was like, pick your heart. Chasing your dreams is hard,

275
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 2: and also not tracing your dreams hard. Pick your hard.

276
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 2: Getting started talking about commitment, I talk about how I

277
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 2: use music in my life to manifest but also to

278
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 2: write and delta brain waves and that's kind of cool

279
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 2: a nerd out of that. I'm a massive music movie

280
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 2: score fan, so I listened to a lot of Han

281
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 2: Zimmer Stay Grounded You to show up and suck before

282
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 2: you can show up and shine. It's a yoga training

283
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 2: thing I learned. Don't be too scared to jump, get going, dream,

284
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 2: make mood boards, manifesto books. In your spare time, write

285
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 2: down what you want, use music to help your goal setting,

286
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 2: ground yourself. You've got to show up and suck before

287
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 2: you can show up and shine. But in the moment,

288
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 2: take the risk, believe in yourself, cut out the noise

289
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 2: and jump. And then the conclusion, I don't want to

290
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 2: tell you because it is a love letter. It's a

291
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 2: love letter to you, the listener or the reader. So

292
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 2: that's a little like surprise the end. So yeah, I

293
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 2: really hope that this little series has been a little

294
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 2: bit of a taste of the book and kind of

295
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 2: like what the book's about and why it exists. And

296
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 2: it definitely was birth from this podcast as well, So

297
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 2: it just feels like a really lucky transition and I'm

298
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 2: really I just hope it flies, you know. It's a

299
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 2: good little crimbo pressy. That's my word for Christmas. And

300
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 2: there are episodes after this now, so this is the

301
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 2: part three of the three part series, and then the

302
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 2: Friday episodes go back to diary as of next Friday,

303
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 2: you'll get your Melbourne Diary because I've been in Melbourne,

304
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 2: and then you'll get it'll be like Crimbo. So it'll

305
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 2: be like Crimbo Byron Vibes. How fun, so fun. I

306
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 2: love Christmas so much. You know, I love Halloween, but

307
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 2: I also really love Christmas. I also really want to

308
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 2: do a Christmas giveaway with the book with Lola Coffee

309
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 2: with Hinterland Hot Chocolate, and so let me know, like

00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,960
