To have a chat about, 68 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: especially some of the things on your list. But first 69 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: of all, let's go back in time to you when 70 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: you were twenty four years old. Can you show a 71 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: little bit about that? 72 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 2: And Chris, Yeah, for sure. 73 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 3: Well at that point I had you know, I grew 74 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 3: up in Australia, living in la now, but I was 75 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 3: in Australia, so I'd finished high school, didn't know what 76 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 3: to do. The nutshell version of all of this is 77 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 3: I went to university, so I was told I should. 78 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 3: I got a degree in something exercise science. It was 79 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 3: actually called human movement, just a ridiculous name. But I 80 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 3: had this degree. It meant nothing to me. I felt 81 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 3: super underwhelmed. And so at twenty two, I think I was. 82 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 3: Then I just went backpacking overseas, no real agenda. And 83 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 3: then yeah, I was in Canada a few years later 84 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 3: and I still kind of like just drifting and I 85 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 3: just got a phone call in the middle of the 86 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 3: night for a friend of mine back in Sydney, and yeah, 87 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 3: he told me that, Yeah, the news that Chris, who 88 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 3: was you know, everyone's bloody best mate Chris, had died overnight. 89 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 3: You know, I had gone to school with Chris, played 90 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 3: Rugby with Chris and you know, rank beers and all 91 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 3: the things that you do, and yeah, it was just 92 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 3: I don't know, I mean, it obviously rocked a whole community, 93 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 3: and even though I hadn't seen Chris in a number 94 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 3: of years, it just made me, you know, like think 95 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 3: about life, his life first and their mine. And I 96 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 3: remember thinking about his life and I kind of wondered, oh, 97 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 3: did he you know, if he could do it all again, 98 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 3: if he could do his twenty four years again, would 99 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 3: he do it the same way or would he change it? 100 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 3: Or ultimately was he happy? And I came to the 101 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 3: conclusion that he wouldn't change too much. I think he 102 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 3: was really happy, really values led in all the things 103 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 3: that he did. So then I turned that question to 104 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 3: myself in the middle of the night in Canada, and 105 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 3: I just wondered, like, if I died today all that day, 106 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 3: would I be happy or would I want to change everything? 107 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 2: And it was so confronting. 108 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 3: Almost instantly, I was like, oh, my gosh, I would 109 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 3: change everything or most things. You know, I didn't know 110 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 3: who I was, I didn't know my values, I didn't 111 00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 3: know what lit me up on the inside. 112 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 2: I'd I'd never really taken any risks. 113 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 3: I just followed and conformed, and yeah, I thought, shit, 114 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 3: I would change a lot and I'm unhappy. And that 115 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 3: of course led me to a moment in that night 116 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 3: where I was like, what would I actually do differently? 117 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 3: And I just began writing a list of things. And 118 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 3: that was the beginning of this list of one hundred things. 119 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 3: And I know, of course, shortly after I pursued. 120 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: That, and then from that you've got a best selling 121 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: book as well. You're a keynote speaker. You speak all 122 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: over the world. I've watched a few ted X talks too. Yeah, 123 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: go are you good? Also, you're always barefoot. I've noticed 124 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: even today I feel too. 125 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's I get asked about my feet more 126 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 3: than anything. It's like, it's crazy, it's so funny. I 127 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 3: just don't love wearing shoes, so I don't. There was 128 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 3: a period right in wear shoes for two and a 129 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 3: half years at all at reports nowhere. Oh wow, no, yeah, 130 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 3: it was really fun. I do wear like thongs or 131 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 3: flip flops now a little bit. But in fact, I've 132 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 3: actually found some shoes on my feet recently and people 133 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 3: are disgusted with me. But what are you doing, but yeah, no, 134 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 3: you're right, yeah, I mean this kind of story, it 135 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 3: was just meant to be. It was just personal. I 136 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 3: didn't care that if anyone knew or not. And then 137 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 3: it just organically like kind of struck a chord to people. 138 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 3: And as you say, like there's you know, there's a book, 139 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 3: and I get to talk and I'm doing talk tomorrow 140 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 3: morning virtually for a company in London, and there's a show. 141 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 3: It's bizarre how it's grown. 142 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: I believe there was a show, but it lends itself 143 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: so well to a show, like we were just chatting 144 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: about it before, so reality based. 145 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, what's happened is like I've of course done 146 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 3: not all my things, actually seventy six things on my list, 147 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 3: so I still got twenty four lests. But it's kind 148 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 3: of like it's been a very positive catalyst for you know, 149 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 3: a lot of people around the world, and so people 150 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 3: have started their own lists. And of course what happens 151 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,239 Speaker 3: when you're in a like minded community is you naturally 152 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 3: have a tendency to want to help people. 153 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 2: We all do, right, Yeah, And. 154 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,559 Speaker 3: So I spent a lot of time kind of helping 155 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 3: people hands on, and the show was about that it 156 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 3: wasn't about my list. It was about me helping individuals 157 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 3: achieve their goals. Yeah, but you know, at the same time, 158 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 3: like an ESPN documentary and like you know, and that 159 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,679 Speaker 3: was about my list and anyway, Yeah, it's been a beautiful, 160 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 3: wonderful journey.

I think it's a common one. 244 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 1: I feel like it should be there. 245 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 2: I think it was. 246 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 3: Sixty, No, what was I can't remember what number it 247 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 3: was on my list, but yeah, I went into a 248 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 3: talk so and I was the closing keynote, as they 249 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 3: would say, and the person speaking before me was Sharon Osborne. 250 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 2: She was in the crowd. I was super nervous. I 251 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 2: was like, oh my god, this is an opportunity, but. 252 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 3: Life, you know, for me, I think we grow bug 253 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 3: getting out of our comfort zone. So I was like, 254 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 3: I have to ask her. I asked permission from the 255 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 3: event organizer. They're paying me to be there right as 256 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 3: a speaker. Yeah, and so it's kind of unprofessional. And 257 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 3: I said, can I do you mind if I try 258 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 3: and kiss Sharon Osborne? And they understandably said no. And 259 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 3: then I felt relieved, and I was like, well, and 260 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 3: I thought about that. I sat down in my seat, 261 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 3: and why am I relieved? I've just been told I 262 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 3: can't do the thing that I want to do. And 263 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 3: I realized it was because it wasn't. I could always 264 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 3: blame it on someone else. Oh I failed because someone 265 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 3: else said no. You know, it takes the responsibility of me. 266 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 3: And I was like, no way. So I went back 267 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 3: to the organizer and I said, I asked again, can 268 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 3: I kiss her?

We all should be growing or evolving. And 331 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 3: I think like connection is a really important thing with 332 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 3: yourself first and then with others. 333 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 2: So how do you do that? For me? 334 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 3: I came to the conclusion, well, I want to get 335 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 3: out of my comfort zone because I think when you're 336 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 3: out there or you don't know what's going to happen, 337 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 3: you're not in control, you feel nervous and all the things. 338 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 3: And you I think you actually surprise yourself and you 339 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 3: find where your edges are and you can tease them 340 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 3: a little bit and you realize, oh, I'm more capable 341 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 3: than I thought I was. I think it's great. And 342 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 3: by doing that, I think you better navigate through life, 343 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 3: and I think you get closer to perhaps who you 344 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 3: really are. 345 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 2: So. 346 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 3: Anyway, when someone's putting a list together, my advice put everything, 347 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 3: like anything and everything on there. I think big, think small, complex, 348 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 3: you know, really simple. I don't think it matters. I 349 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 3: just think as long as your list is a goal 350 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 3: is meaningful, that's it doesn't have to be big or 351 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 3: world changing. 352 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: So do you go for it? 353 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: Yeah? I love that. Okay, I'll swim with the Orcas. 354 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 3: And also like, if you think that you kayaking with 355 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 3: the Orcas is a separate thing, keep it on the left. 356 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 3: But if you think that's more of a like a 357 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 3: step towards swimming with them, take it off the list 358 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 3: and just, you know, mentally note that that's how you 359 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 3: want to progress. 360 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 2: In that way, you know what I mean? 361 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: Totally? No, No, that's great. They have it both made 362 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: the list Because I did have that thought. I was like, 363 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: as one an easier option. I was like, no, no, no, 364 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: you still want to you still wanna kayak? 365 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 2: Yeah? 366 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, because that would be epic. Two And my next 367 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: question is when you put things on the list that 368 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: feel a little bit selfish. So I've heard again the 369 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: oxygen the oxygen mask thing. Is it that you're putting 370 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: yourself first? Because you need to like, yeah, look after 371 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: yourself before you can then connect and give back to others. 372 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 2: Would you say yeah, I think so for sure. 373 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 3: And I think the reason it's kind of seen is like, 374 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 3: so the reason you would say, well, is it selfish? 375 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 3: And the reason I certainly thought that too. And generally, 376 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 3: you know, we're kind of told if you do stuff 377 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 3: for yourself, you're selfish, and it's an insult. I argue that, like, 378 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 3: it's incredibly how healthy, is so needed, it's vital, you know. 379 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 3: I think the idea of being selfish is important to 380 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 3: then being self less. I hear from like plenty of 381 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 3: people who because we're so conditioned by society, you know, 382 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 3: to do stuff you know, and not this is wrong, 383 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 3: but it's school, further education, a number of jobs, to 384 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 3: accumulate money, a career, maybe multiple careers, get a house, 385 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 3: family that I'll be responsible. 386 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, right exactly. 387 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 3: And I think it, you know, it reaches you know, 388 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,959 Speaker 3: the US and the American dream and all that stuff. 389 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 3: So that not that that's wrong, but we're kind of 390 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 3: in that thinking. We were kind of led to believe that, Wow, 391 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 3: if I think about stuff that I want to do 392 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 3: outside of what I'm told to that's negative or selfish, 393 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 3: and it's not. 394 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 2: It's such a shame that that's the case. 395 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 3: So yeah, I kind of feel like I hear from 396 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 3: whatts of mums, for example, and you know they're like, well, 397 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 3: I've been looking about looking after my kids and now 398 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 3: they're about to fly the coup and I don't even 399 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 3: know who I am anymore because I've been so selfless. 400 00:17:58,280 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 2: And so that's another thing. 401 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 3: People tend to be either one or the other, either 402 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 3: incredibly self less or incredibly self fish, and I feel like, 403 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 3: ideally you should be both totally. You know, if you 404 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 3: think about like your values as a person, important aspects 405 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 3: of your life, there's you know, personal growth and also 406 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: you want to be a good community member or friend 407 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 3: or family member or you know, so it's you know, 408 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 3: it's there are elements of things which are just for 409 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 3: you and that's great as other things which are for others, 410 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:24,959 Speaker 3: and it's a blend. 411 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 2: Ideally. 412 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: Oh I love it. I've heard you talk about permission 413 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: before and it's like, I think you liken it to 414 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: like people that are seemingly quite successful, and it's not like, oh, 415 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 1: well I'm extra brave, I'm extra feelers it's that I 416 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: give myself permission. Can you share a bit about that? 417 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 3: Sure, yeah, And I mean I'm probably kind of because 418 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 3: you know, we both do loss of podcasts and stuff. 419 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 2: I'm repeating myself a little bit, and I don't want 420 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 2: to bore. 421 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 1: You, but you no please, and this is all I 422 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: think a different kind of audience. 423 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 3: So yeah, great, Well, I think permission's like again, we 424 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 3: typically in life, as we progress from a young age, 425 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 3: we are told to do things. We are given permission 426 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 3: by others, you know, And I mean in Australia, we 427 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 3: certainly don't get like a ride of passage go from 428 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 3: you know, childhood into adulthood. You know, I didn't, and 429 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 3: so I never really kind of like felt or that 430 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 3: I was taught how to give myself. Hey, you're an 431 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 3: adult now, you can make some decisions by yourself, and 432 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 3: permission is such an important thing. And you know, as 433 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 3: you mentioned, like I think when we experienced a darker moment, 434 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 3: you know, for me it was losing a friend. For 435 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 3: others that you know, it could be almost losing their 436 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 3: own life, or losing a job, or coming out of 437 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 3: a relationship or you know, any number of these things 438 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 3: which are really common The narrative that we hear often 439 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 3: is it's those people when they hit kind of a 440 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 3: rock bottom or a dark moment, that then go, hang 441 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 3: on what's important to me? You know, someone's diagnosed with 442 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 3: cancer and they'll go shit in that moment of reflection, 443 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 3: I haven't done these things. And it's those people that 444 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 3: we often hear then go and do all the wonderful 445 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 3: you know, climb a mountain, write a book, proposea I 446 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 3: love you, say I'm sorry, learn to yodel or whatever 447 00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 3: it is nice? Right, So yeah, and that as you 448 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 3: say again, it's like, well do those people think are 449 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 3: they brave but maybe a little bit? Or are they 450 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 3: lucky or special? 451 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 2: Like I do? 452 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 3: Ah? 453 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 2: You know, neither am I? Neither's mark who I? You know? 454 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,880 Speaker 3: I pushed in the in the whichever the half marathon. 455 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,159 Speaker 3: The commonality is everyone gives themselves permission. You know what, 456 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 3: screw everything for a second. I'm just going to think 457 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,400 Speaker 3: about myself. That's giving yourself permission. And when you start 458 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 3: thinking about yourself and acknowledging your values and identifying things 459 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 3: that again light you up. A list of goals come 460 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 3: up which are truly meaningful to you. And then it's 461 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 3: about choosing giving yourself permission to choose to pursue them. 462 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 1: I like it is that what happened when you and 463 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: I know I'm going back in a little time more 464 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: per but like when you said to your family, Yo, 465 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: I've got this list.

Yeah, 471 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: on like a deep core kind of level to be 472 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 1: able to be like thank you.

I just had it. 489 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 3: I had a very clear moment, an extraordinarily clear moment 490 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 3: where again in Canada, when I was processing, when I've 491 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 3: just been told on the phone that I I realized 492 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 3: I was unhappy and I couldn't think anything more important 493 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 3: than me feeling happy. 494 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,199 Speaker 2: And I still to this day, you know, what are 495 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 2: we doing? 496 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 3: If we're not doing things that are trying to make 497 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 3: us feel good, what's the point are you putting energy 498 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 3: towards things that don't make you feel good as an alternative? 499 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 2: I don't know. So I that was it. 500 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 3: It was just so clear to me, and I've never 501 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 3: looked back since, and like there's no moment of like 502 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 3: self doubt or jeopardy or am I doing that? 503 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 2: I just knew. I knew. 504 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 3: So as soon as I started writing out my list, 505 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 3: I was like, yeah again, filled with like maybe purpose 506 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 3: is the word. Having said that, it took me kind 507 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 3: of like a two year period to get to a 508 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 3: point where I actually left Australia with the list. I 509 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 3: actually forgot about it for a little while. I'd married 510 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 3: a stranger. I flew back to Australia and I conformed 511 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 3: into like I she started a business with a friend, 512 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 3: and then I, yeah, two years later became I wasn't depressed, 513 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 3: but I was super down, broke down in the back 514 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 3: of a TAXI started crying. I was like, why where 515 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 3: has this come from? And then I thought about my list. 516 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 3: I got it out the next morning and just went, 517 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 3: that's it. I'm doing this, paid off my business, didn't 518 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 3: go on to make any money from it, and left 519 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 3: and that was it. So yeah, I think it's such 520 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 3: an important understanding why. 521 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 2: You're doing this. Is it to be happy? Is it 522 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 2: get out of your comfort zone? 523 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,919 Speaker 3: Is it to grow? Is it to whatever? If you 524 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 3: can always just rely on that laughing. 525 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: Totally, I completely agree with you. I do want to 526 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: say though, and I mean, this is a compliment, so 527 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 1: I hope it comes out right. But like it's one 528 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: thing to be able to do and feel very clear 529 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: and have that moment of like, well, I'm going to 530 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: honor this thing that feels like it's yeah, in line 531 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: with my purpose or passion. It's one thing to like 532 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: and like, I know, you say, like it's not necessarily 533 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 1: courage or bravery, but like, I think there are a 534 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: lot of people living out there that have got this 535 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:53,360 Speaker 1: passion or this desire for this dream that maybe nobody 536 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: else can see but them, and they choose not to 537 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: go after it because that's too scary, or they'll be 538 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 1: just store you know, their self worth as lower like 539 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,120 Speaker 1: you are in a very small percentage of human beings 540 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:10,239 Speaker 1: that are courageous enough. I would say, oh, I can 541 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 1: see the eyes. 542 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 3: No, yeah, I'm trying to fit like, no, well, I'll 543 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 3: take it as a compliment, thank you, welcome. But sadly, yeah, 544 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 3: there are tons of people out there. You know, my 545 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,959 Speaker 3: story is a bit of a minority story, sadly, not 546 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,679 Speaker 3: because I'm special or whatever, just because I just backed 547 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 3: myself and went for it. And you know, like I 548 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 3: talk about this, you know, I'm very fortunate. I get 549 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 3: to speak all around the world on stages and we 550 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 3: do this like court this online course Eight Steps to 551 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 3: Creating and Activating your List. And so I'm in front 552 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 3: of a lot of people. And the sad it's great 553 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 3: and I'm so thankful for doing all that stuff. But 554 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 3: the sad part is if a alien came from out 555 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 3: of space and was at the back of a room 556 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 3: that I was speaking in and said to the person 557 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 3: next to him, oh, what's this guy talking about? Why 558 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 3: is everyone listening so intently? And the person was to say, well, 559 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 3: he's doing the things that he wants, the alien would 560 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 3: be like, what, well are you? Is that not common? 561 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 3: That's a shame because we get so called and I 562 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 3: get it, I get it, but you know, there are 563 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,679 Speaker 3: so many parts that come into it, like you need 564 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 3: to have a good support crew, you need to you know, 565 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 3: that stuff develops over time, and if you don't, you 566 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 3: need to have the you know, the grit to just 567 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 3: do it anyway. 568 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 2: And I guess that's kind of what I did. 569 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, the truth is everyone's equipped with 570 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 3: the same ability to just do stuff, and it's just 571 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 3: a matter of deciding to and changing how we operate totally. 572 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: But there's got to be something about you that gives 573 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: you that. Like I know you say you're not any 574 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 1: different to anyone else, but like in the pandemic and lockdown. 575 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: That's just been like in my age group nearly I 576 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: can't tell you how many people are pregnant or engaged, 577 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 1: and like that sounds really lovely and beautiful, but I 578 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 1: unpacked it a bit with my therapist and I was like, oh, 579 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 1: this is really confronting, Like I'm in is this what's 580 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,120 Speaker 1: the society's expectations are of me? Now? Am I expected 581 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 1: to go down that part? And he said, when there's 582 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: a life threatening thing like a pandemic, is like people 583 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: make choices out of fear, and choosing to have a 584 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 1: kid is like, well, I'm living on through this. And 585 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 1: I was like, whoa, that is more quite morbid as well, 586 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,679 Speaker 1: and he was like, well, it's it's a fear of 587 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: severe fear of death as well. There are like all 588 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 1: these layers to it. And then they're getting married is like, oh, well, 589 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 1: you know, time's ticking, maybe we should And it's really 590 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 1: like and I'm someone that's kind of like ignored society's expectations. 591 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: I had a business Smothy bar Solder came over here, like, 592 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 1: same kind of thing, but it takes guts and like 593 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 1: you said, grit, and I just, yeah, I really want 594 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,239 Speaker 1: to acknowledge that in you. I know, like everybody has 595 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: the ability to feel that but or to live that way. 596 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 1: But it does take a sense of Like even when 597 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: I first moved here, I've only been here for three months. 598 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: Some days I'd literally open my draw and be like 599 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 1: right a, Lola, big breath off you go, like and 600 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: I had to psych myself. 601 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,360 Speaker 3: On you, and anyone can psych themselves up. Yeah, that's 602 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 3: the truth of it. And like, as you say, no 603 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 3: decision should be fear based. It's ridiculous. I don't even 604 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 3: like referring to this as a bucket lest because that's fit. 605 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,159 Speaker 3: It's like things to do before you die. Hurry up, 606 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 3: you're gonna die, do it now, Like I get the urgency. 607 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 3: That's a positive thing. Sure, I understand there is a 608 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,640 Speaker 3: timeline and when it's over, it's over. 609 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 2: You know, maybe you believe in something else, it's great. 610 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 3: But yeah, every decision should be like consciously thought about, 611 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 3: you know. You should be doing everything with like super 612 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 3: clear intention, you know. And it's very easy for me 613 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 3: to say that, like relationships or work or goals or whatever, 614 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 3: but it's true. And what I just this is kind 615 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 3: of what drives me. Imagine being on your deathbed and 616 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 3: having a moment being lucky enough to have a moment 617 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 3: you're not hit by a car and you die instantly 618 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 3: or whatever. You're in a bed and you have a 619 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 3: moment to look back at your life and truly reflect 620 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 3: and go, I wish I'd done that differently. 621 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 2: Can you imagine? 622 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 3: Can you? And it happens? That's the tragedy of it. 623 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 3: And as opposed to thinking, oh, with a smile on 624 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 3: your face. Yes, oh, I'm stoked. I just I was 625 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 3: just telling you before this, I just posted a thing 626 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 3: of it got shot right whist wearing a bulletproof vest. 627 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,199 Speaker 1: It's video, It's meant secretly, I'm kind of jealous though, 628 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: I'd be down for that. 629 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, Like so I should always would have disclaim my life. 630 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 3: Stupid thing, don't do it. Blah blah blah. Went to Columbia, Yeah, 631 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 3: went to googled bulletproof clothing companies. A Colombian company popped up. 632 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 3: I emailed them. I said, would you shoot me? The 633 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 3: owner replied, I'd be happy to shoot you. So I 634 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 3: flew to Columbia, wore a bulletproof vest. Yeah, and he 635 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 3: shot me. Now in that scared by the way. Yeah, 636 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 3: So this is the interesting thing. When I started on 637 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,959 Speaker 3: a hundred things. As we spoke about I thought, well, 638 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 3: if today it was my last day, would I be happy? 639 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 3: Would I change anything? And I was like, shit, I 640 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 3: actually would change everything. I'm not happy. This was something 641 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 3: like eighteen months later, and I'd left Australia. In that 642 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 3: eighteen months, I checked off a bunch of stuff from 643 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 3: my list, and my life had changed. And I didn't 644 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 3: realize until this moment where he was pointing a gun 645 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 3: at me point blank and he put his finger on 646 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 3: the trigger and squeezed it. And in that moment I 647 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 3: was supremely confident up to that moment, and then I thought, 648 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 3: oh my god, what happens if this goes wrong and 649 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 3: I die. I'd never considered that risk now obviously it 650 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 3: would have been all of me. My felt pretty funny, actually, but. 651 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 2: I did. 652 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 3: In that let's second, I considered, hang on, if I 653 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 3: died now, in this moment, how do I feel about 654 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 3: my life? And I had realized that again. I realized 655 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 3: in that moment that I was just super happy. I 656 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 3: wouldn't change anything. I was living the right way, and 657 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 3: of course I didn't die. It worked, and blah blah, blah, 658 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 3: not to. 659 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: Make a death gag, but you'd be like going out 660 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: of the bang. Yeah, it's like the gun because even 661 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 1: here being in America, and I really want to talk 662 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: to you about America, but like you have a different 663 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: perspective on guns because they're legal. They're legal here, and 664 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: so one of my things, like I want to train 665 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: just to understand handling of guns, just that I have 666 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: an awareness of it because I get a little bit 667 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: fearful and like, oh shit, Like I'm like a female 668 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: just walk in the streets alone. Some days I'm like, 669 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: oh shit, like I could be a target. And like 670 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 1: I think I said to you when you got here, 671 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 1: my like car battery got stolen out the front of 672 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: my house, which was a really funny experience. 673 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 2: You had a gun, you coulda shot him or which is. 674 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 1: What my landlord told me. But I thought, oh, how funny. 675 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: I've got this like irrational fear of guns in America. 676 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: Why don't I train in like just hand just understand 677 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 1: how to handle guns. 678 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 3: Well, it's a super complex issue and I shouldn't comment 679 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 3: on it because I don't know enough. But I sit 680 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 3: here a stat that the majority is shooting of deaths 681 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 3: from the how do I how do I even frame this? 682 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 3: The majority of deaths by gunner by the gun owner 683 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 3: is killed by their own gun. 684 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 1: Oh that's crazy. 685 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 2: Does that make sense?

I don't know about owning one, but I just 693 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: sort of be really interesting to learn and also get 694 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: comfortable with something that feels uncomfortable. 695 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's why. That's exactly why I got shot. 696 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 3: I was I was kind of actually like in a 697 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 3: car when I was hit chiking across America, which is 698 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 3: on my. 699 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 2: List, I got given up. 700 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: I saw you did that. 701 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was great, but every car had a gun 702 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 3: in it. And on one occasion I looked at this 703 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 3: gun and pointed at myself. It was empty, but I 704 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 3: was I was struck with that fear that you have, Yeah, 705 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 3: and I thought, how do I how do I get 706 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 3: around there?

Yeah, it just has to be like relevant. 717 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 3: As long as I'm relevant, it's perfect. 718 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 1: Oh my godness, there are so many things on my 719 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: list that I want to talk to you about. 720 00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 2: Let's go. I believe I didn't mean. 721 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: I didn't mean. Another one on my list is I 722 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: want to build a treehouse and live in it that's legitimately, 723 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: like in Byron Bay or something, or like Palm Springs, 724 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: Like build this epic treehouse and then actually. 725 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 2: Occupy it, right right, Such a good one. 726 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: So fun. But I mean, like my questions list, So, 727 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: oh what made you like? What made you come here 728 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: to America? Well? 729 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 3: I was doing more talks over here, and then I 730 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 3: got asked to do this show, and which is like 731 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 3: a reality show called one hundred Things blah blah blah. 732 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 2: It took like six months of filming, but I had 733 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 2: a three year. 734 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 3: Visa and I just kind of thought, basically what happened 735 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 3: is I had I had almost moved away from my list, 736 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 3: and I was connecting strangers to help each other out 737 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 3: in acts of kindness. So I kind of had this 738 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 3: thought of developing a site, almost like a matchmaking site 739 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 3: for kindness, and I thought, America seems like a pretty 740 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 3: good place to do something like that. You know, it's 741 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 3: just there's so much opportunity here. Not to even comment 742 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 3: about Australia, but like there just is in America. People 743 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 3: are so collaborative and supportive, and there's so much resource here. 744 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: There's a lot of optimism and hope here, I found 745 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: as soon as I got here, even though the COVID 746 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: situation was much more dire, when I got here, there 747 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 1: was such a sense even going and trade to Joe's, 748 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: like there was this sense of like hope and positivity, 749 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: like yeah, less kind of like the theory vibes I. 750 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 2: Got for sure. 751 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:29,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think people are doing stuff here, you know, 752 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 3: And you're right, it's kind of like upbeat and everyone 753 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 3: supports each other and anyway, so I thought, what a 754 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 3: great place to try and forward that. So I kind 755 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 3: of moved here and I want to talk about the 756 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 3: visa stuff. 757 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 1: It full on.

All Right, 771 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 1: So I don't know how you feel about this word, 772 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 1: but I just want to know where you're, like, what 773 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: your perception is of failure. This podcast is called Fearlessly Failing. Yeah, yeah, 774 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: do you like I've heard you say like I'm not 775 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: perfect on a podcast. You're like, I've just had a 776 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 1: chocolate croissant today and I've had a few this week, 777 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: and like I think we I'm a nutritionist by trade, 778 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:46,240 Speaker 1: and so I totally fall into this wagon of being like, oh, 779 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 1: I've been to in and out Burger, you know, like 780 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 1: little things where I feel like I'm probably not honoring 781 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:55,760 Speaker 1: one of my core values. And so do you fail 782 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: number one? And if you do, what's your kind of 783 00:34:58,239 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: like how do you? 784 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 2: Well? 785 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 3: Interestingly, I have never failed. No, I'm Jackie, So I 786 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 3: feel like, well, you say, no, one's perfect. And also 787 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 3: I genuinely, I genuinely feel this now like failure or 788 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 3: whatever word you want to use, like you know that 789 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 3: you find resistance or you have an outcome that's different 790 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 3: to what you expect or whatever. All that stuff's amazing feedback, 791 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 3: amazing feedback, Like you should be learning from this stuff. 792 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 3: It's very rare that you try something and bang you 793 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 3: hit it out of the park. There's so much learning 794 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 3: to be done, and there's actually, I think, really arrogant 795 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 3: of us to consider or even think that you know, oh, 796 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 3: well I'm going to do this straight away stupid. Of 797 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 3: course it never happens. So you need that quote unquote failure. 798 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 3: You need that feedback because you learn from it. So 799 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 3: I think it's great. Yeah, I have no I guess 800 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,280 Speaker 3: I just I've always been kind of curious about putting 801 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 3: myself out there, and like, you know, when I was 802 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 3: like a kid, I was always so shy, and then 803 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 3: I started just like I mean, just asking out pretty 804 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,360 Speaker 3: girls to see what they would say. It wasn't about 805 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 3: whether we went out, it was just about putting myself 806 00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 3: out there. And like, of course, more often than not 807 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 3: they'd be like no, and that's fine. So I just 808 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 3: get getting because there's this illusion that everything has to 809 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 3: be perfect. Obviously, talk about social media and the highlights 810 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:10,320 Speaker 3: reels that we see of everyone. 811 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 2: It's absolute rubbish. 812 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 3: It's garbage, like the beauty and the actual juice of 813 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 3: life is all the other stuff. 814 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 2: So no, I think failure is great. 815 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: I feel like you're a very present person.

I don't know. 862 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:06,799 Speaker 3: I kind of like I always, for some reason steer 863 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 3: away from all that that thata like yeah, but I 864 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 3: guess so, like I feel pretty present. I'm just like 865 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 3: in the moment, I'm I mean having said that, when 866 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 3: we were getting ready for this, I was trying to 867 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 3: post something on Instagram, right, so my attention was divided 868 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 3: between you and my phone, and I apologize.

It's 902 00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 3: just been this wonderful accident. Genuinely, like I never thought 903 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 3: or any I never thought I'd be on a podcast 904 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 3: or what. 905 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 2: I didn't even know what a podcast what? 906 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 3: Like I had noticed it, but and I like that, 907 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 3: you know, I kind of really enjoyed that idea.

But because of the impact one hundred things 911 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 3: has had on people, like I said, it's saved lives. 912 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 3: People find solis in it, They meet best friends in 913 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 3: the community. This course, for example, now is like to 914 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,800 Speaker 3: prove that I'm not a unique entity or brave whatever. 915 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 3: There are people who come into the course who have 916 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 3: you know, they have a very interesting background, some darker 917 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 3: than others, but genuinely, generally it's a life style that 918 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 3: doesn't encompass progress or achieving meaningful things. All these people, 919 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 3: after the course, change their lives, change their lives, and 920 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 3: we you know, like I try and post as much 921 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 3: as they came on Instagram if someone finally doing the 922 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 3: thing that they've always wanted to do and it happened. 923 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 3: So just to again say it's available to anyone, like 924 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 3: that idea of just bettering them elves.

I'm going to tell you about this 1024 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 1: musician that you may or may not have heard of. 1025 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,680 Speaker 1: His name is Jack Garrett, and he's got a song 1026 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 1: out called Surprise Yourself. And for the video clip, he 1027 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 1: it's like doco style. He got people to face either 1028 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 1: their fears or their biggest ambitions. So I swim swimming 1029 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 1: with the sharks, but you see the whole journey of them, 1030 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 1: like tearing up out the front of the shark like 1031 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:37,280 Speaker 1: before they jump in with the sharks facing the fear 1032 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 1: and then coming out the other side of it. And 1033 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,160 Speaker 1: for some people it's like walking through a cave. For 1034 00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 1: some people it's like on a roller coaster. And every 1035 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 1: time my boyfriend I watch it, we will cry, like 1036 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 1: it is like, I'm going to send it to you. 1037 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 1: I'll put it in the show notes as well. It's 1038 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 1: just there's this a bit like I have for many years, 1039 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 1: probably from early twenties, had a mantra of like do 1040 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 1: something that really scares you. Year was all I said. 1041 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 1: But I was like, just one thing that's like and 1042 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:06,360 Speaker 1: with the skydiving, and this is where, like I like 1043 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:11,320 Speaker 1: the way you've shared about being shot for two weeks 1044 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:13,319 Speaker 1: and the lead up if you were like, oh, you know, 1045 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 1: what are you doing, and I'll be like, oh my god, 1046 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:18,279 Speaker 1: I'm skydiving, my palms would start sweating. And it wasn't 1047 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 1: until the moment that I got into that little plane 1048 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:23,880 Speaker 1: and it started corkscrewing like all the way up, you 1049 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 1: know how it goes in like a spiral all the 1050 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 1: way up, that I completely gave over to the experience. 1051 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 1: Was like, how lucky am I that I can even 1052 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 1: be doing this right now, but that lead up, that 1053 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 1: two weeks kind of lead up. I was like, oh, 1054 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 1: like I wasn't sleeping right I was like, I was like, 1055 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 1: and I'd chosen to do it, Like I had chosen 1056 00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 1: to do this and it was the coolest experience. Like 1057 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:47,560 Speaker 1: I love that experience. But it's just it is so 1058 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:51,800 Speaker 1: I'm really passionate about human behavior and it's just fascinating 1059 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 1: that what our brains will do. 1060 00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,840 Speaker 3: Well. I think you've brought up two separate things really well. 1061 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 3: Like one is like the apprehension leading into something, some 1062 00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,399 Speaker 3: people will away from it at that point. So it's 1063 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 3: so good that you were able to jump out of 1064 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 3: a plane ultimately, even though you were fearful for two 1065 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 3: week leaning up to it. The other thing, though, I think, 1066 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 3: is slightly different, Like why are you and your boyfriend 1067 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:13,279 Speaker 3: crying are watching a video of someone doing something. It's 1068 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:16,319 Speaker 3: not because they were fearful leading into it, I think, 1069 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:18,400 Speaker 3: and I think about that. I actually spoke to my 1070 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 3: therapist about this yesterday. So I watched a video of 1071 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,960 Speaker 3: like the NFL draft where like these kids are in 1072 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 3: college who've worked their ass or whatever, get the phone 1073 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 3: call on draft night from the owner of a big 1074 00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 3: franchise and go, hey, well done, buddy, You've made the team. 1075 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,880 Speaker 3: You're now a New York Giant or whatever. And that 1076 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 3: is that moment where someone who has just been trying 1077 00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:44,399 Speaker 3: their best, who's overcome so much adversity, really, like you know, 1078 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 3: nothing's guaranteed in life. We're all out there just trying 1079 00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,719 Speaker 3: our best. They have that moment, that breakthrough moment of 1080 00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:54,840 Speaker 3: I did it. I fucking did it. And that is 1081 00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:57,880 Speaker 3: why I cried when I watched that video. It sounds ridiculous, 1082 00:47:57,880 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 3: but it's the same reason. I would imagine as you 1083 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:03,240 Speaker 3: and your boy friend, you're watching someone achieve something meaningful 1084 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:05,720 Speaker 3: to them, and it's that breakthrough. You're celebrating the success 1085 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:09,319 Speaker 3: of others, and again, like to put it back to 1086 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 3: the people listening and ourselves, what's your breakthrough moment? What 1087 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 3: is that moment in your life? If it's skydiving fantastic 1088 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:18,400 Speaker 3: and maybe like even bigger, what's that thing that like 1089 00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 3: we should all be chasing, which when we get there, 1090 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 3: we are going to break down in tears in a 1091 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:24,640 Speaker 3: good way because we did it? 1092 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:25,840 Speaker 2: Did it? 1093 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 3: What's the video that you're gonna post is gonna make 1094 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 3: someone cry? Because they're celebrating you, you know, like, oh, 1095 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 3: because we all deserve that moment. Again, it wouldn't be 1096 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 3: great to go through. Everyone deserves it. And I actually 1097 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:37,960 Speaker 3: when I watched this draft. 1098 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:39,319 Speaker 1: Video, can you send it to me after? 1099 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, I will, I'll send it to you. And I 1100 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:44,279 Speaker 3: was like, where's my moment when when I don't know 1101 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 3: if I've ever had such a specific moment of like, 1102 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 3: oh my god, I did it. I did it, you know, 1103 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:53,359 Speaker 3: like and you could argue that I've done a bunch 1104 00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 3: of stuff. I mean, I felt really good when I 1105 00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:57,359 Speaker 3: got asked to write a book and like it got 1106 00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 3: published and I saw it in a bookstore. But I 1107 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:01,799 Speaker 3: still don't think that's my moment. Like there's something else 1108 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:03,919 Speaker 3: out there and I cannot wait for it to happen. 1109 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 1: Yeah see I get so I know in my mind 1110 00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 1: exactly what that thing is because it's been my drive 1111 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 1: for all of my career life, like since probably like 1112 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 1: twenty one.

But I was like, whoa, Like, 1140 00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:46,799 Speaker 1: that's also a really extreme response to get from someone 1141 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:47,959 Speaker 1: you were just sharing a dream. 1142 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:50,719 Speaker 2: For sure. It speaks to so many things. One we 1143 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 2: mentioned earlier. You need a good support crew. 1144 00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:54,279 Speaker 3: If there's anyone who are the people who like fill 1145 00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 3: you up with like, you know, optimism and joy and 1146 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:58,360 Speaker 3: you walk away from a conversation. 1147 00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,399 Speaker 2: You're like, oh yeah, god, yeah, oh my god, those 1148 00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 2: are the people you need. Yeah. 1149 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,120 Speaker 3: The tough part is getting rid of the people who 1150 00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:06,319 Speaker 3: aren't that, and because they're often the closest people to 1151 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 3: us oddly, but you need to and people like how 1152 00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:09,440 Speaker 3: do I do it? 1153 00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 2: How do I do it? Just do it? Just do it. 1154 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:14,680 Speaker 3: You'll be better off for it. The other thing is, yeah, 1155 00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:17,560 Speaker 3: I mean that's obviously a reflection of her. That's what. 1156 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:20,040 Speaker 3: It's nothing to do with you and everybody who if 1157 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 3: you think of those people you mentioned, Steve Colbert or 1158 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,560 Speaker 3: Jimmy Kimmel or they all at one point had that 1159 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:29,160 Speaker 3: dream being somebody who wasn't known at the time. I'd 1160 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:31,840 Speaker 3: love to host a show and your person would have 1161 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:34,360 Speaker 3: probably laughed at them too, and that person went, of 1162 00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 3: course and did it. Stephen Colbert is no, like we 1163 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:37,720 Speaker 3: all have these dreams. 1164 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:38,520 Speaker 2: I also want to. 1165 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,480 Speaker 3: Say this, and it's kind of like it's just another 1166 00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:42,879 Speaker 3: perspective on this too. As much as we all want 1167 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,040 Speaker 3: that moment, that breakthrough moment, and some of us get 1168 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:49,800 Speaker 3: it right, it doesn't matter totally. It doesn't actually matter. 1169 00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 3: And this is something that I've been thinking about a 1170 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 3: lot lately. I'm somewhat celebrated for my list. Right, so 1171 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:56,279 Speaker 3: we do a podcast because I've done some things on 1172 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:58,600 Speaker 3: a list, or it's kind of interesting or whatever, it 1173 00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 3: doesn't matter. What I have found out is that my list, 1174 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:05,839 Speaker 3: and like our list, they are purely and only vehicles 1175 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:09,120 Speaker 3: for us to experience the world, to try and get 1176 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,360 Speaker 3: a better understanding of who we are. And by doing 1177 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:13,640 Speaker 3: these things, like you know, as you are now you're 1178 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 3: doing a podcast. You have this aspiration of becoming a 1179 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:18,719 Speaker 3: talk show host, right, and I'm sure you'll get there. 1180 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:20,919 Speaker 3: I'm not no doubt you could do it, but it's 1181 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,239 Speaker 3: not That's not the important thing as long as you're 1182 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:25,759 Speaker 3: being yourself along the way. And I hate to use 1183 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 3: this cliche term, but it's not the destination. It's the 1184 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 3: journey totally. 1185 00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 2: As all we have, you. 1186 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 3: Know, you getting on the show, We're not equal. Happiness 1187 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 3: for you is this is this? And if you were 1188 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:37,280 Speaker 3: to like die today and you had that moment of reflection, 1189 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:41,239 Speaker 3: you I'm sure be like, god, yeah, yeah, oh my god, 1190 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 3: I'm working towards a dream. It's not about the actual achievement, 1191 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:44,839 Speaker 3: you know. 1192 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 1: Ah, so good. You are very inspiring. I'm sure you 1193 00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 1: get all the time. 1194 00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 2: I'm glad to make sense. 1195 00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:54,920 Speaker 1: No, but I've never really shared that story about the 1196 00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:58,799 Speaker 1: someone laughing at me, like and very recently laughing at me, 1197 00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:01,920 Speaker 1: and I was like fucking oh gobsmack, oh my god. Yeah, 1198 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:04,279 Speaker 1: but I also love how you just said, like the 1199 00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:07,399 Speaker 1: people that are often closest to us sometimes I don't 1200 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 1: want to. I've used the word like toxic, but like 1201 00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:15,200 Speaker 1: have can have it quite a detrimental effect. And it's 1202 00:53:15,239 --> 00:53:17,840 Speaker 1: like like I'm thirty five and I'm in acting school 1203 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:19,279 Speaker 1: as well, just because it scares me and I love 1204 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:22,440 Speaker 1: that feeling. And I remember in Australia, I was in 1205 00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 1: acting school and one of my classmates was like, well, 1206 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,439 Speaker 1: you're too old to make it and I just looked 1207 00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:28,759 Speaker 1: at her and I just said, I can't afford to 1208 00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:32,400 Speaker 1: think like that, which is great because obviously I've got 1209 00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 1: a sense of like again, like I can see when 1210 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:40,000 Speaker 1: it's someone else's shit, but like it is, there are 1211 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:42,520 Speaker 1: there are a lot of like people that you need 1212 00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:46,880 Speaker 1: to actually go yeah, whoa. And like even recently, someone 1213 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:48,480 Speaker 1: just did something really mean. I was like, hey, that 1214 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:51,000 Speaker 1: was that was really mean? Like why'd you do that? 1215 00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:53,360 Speaker 1: And that for me is three years of therapy to 1216 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:55,920 Speaker 1: understanding and being able to and you've touched on it. 1217 00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:57,840 Speaker 1: Can you this will be my last question, but can 1218 00:53:57,880 --> 00:53:59,960 Speaker 1: you talk about like the importance of looking after that 1219 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:03,080 Speaker 1: part of your mental health, which part exactly like having 1220 00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:05,040 Speaker 1: a therapist and investing in your own Oh for sure. 1221 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:08,320 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. So it's not very I don't know 1222 00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,800 Speaker 3: people do it in Australia. I never did, but it seems 1223 00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:13,360 Speaker 3: like we don't as Australians do that. It's not culturally 1224 00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:16,919 Speaker 3: normal over here. Everyone because he's a therapist. I yeah, 1225 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,400 Speaker 3: So I've been seeing one for like two years or 1226 00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:23,479 Speaker 3: so and he's great. Here is great, And it's again 1227 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 3: I think they're like the misconception is that you see 1228 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:30,439 Speaker 3: one if you're broken or you are there's something about 1229 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 3: you if you need to see one. It's absolutely not 1230 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:33,800 Speaker 3: like that someone explained to me one time, Like you 1231 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 3: go to the gym to. 1232 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:35,360 Speaker 2: Like work your muscles. 1233 00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:38,359 Speaker 3: Yeah it's yeah, it's like going a therapist is working 1234 00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:41,840 Speaker 3: your brain far more important than your muscles, by the way, 1235 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 3: both important, but you know, just to make a point, 1236 00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:47,560 Speaker 3: but yeah, it's like someone who just helps you process 1237 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:49,960 Speaker 3: things a little better. And for me, I so the 1238 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 3: one thing above all else with my therapist is that 1239 00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:56,760 Speaker 3: he just allows me to understand stuff, better, understand myself 1240 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:58,839 Speaker 3: and you know, like we all have things. 1241 00:54:58,840 --> 00:54:59,560 Speaker 2: No one's perfect. 1242 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,000 Speaker 3: There's a Again, there's another misconception that we're meant to 1243 00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:03,959 Speaker 3: get to a point where we become the all knowing, 1244 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,520 Speaker 3: all seeing, wisest person in the room. As rubbish, it's 1245 00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 3: absolute fallacy. Like we all have stuff. We all have stuff, 1246 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:13,600 Speaker 3: and like even so so much I want to talk 1247 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,640 Speaker 3: about there is so much. How long can we stretch 1248 00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 3: as helpful? I know, there's just a lot I want 1249 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 3: to talk about. I just I want to touch on 1250 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 3: the community side and having people who are positive as 1251 00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:24,880 Speaker 3: well in our workshop. I don't really talk about this, 1252 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:27,239 Speaker 3: But we had a lady who was talking about a 1253 00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 3: toxic relationship with the closest person to her, her husband. 1254 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,879 Speaker 3: She went through the course, she didn't have it less, 1255 00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 3: She wasn't able to identify goals at the beginning, and 1256 00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 3: then she identified her biggest goal as creating healthier boundaries 1257 00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,160 Speaker 3: in her life. So a week after the course ended, 1258 00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,560 Speaker 3: she shared with the group that she left her husband 1259 00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,760 Speaker 3: with her daughter. And because he was such a negative, 1260 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:50,040 Speaker 3: he got jealous and angry that she was even doing 1261 00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:53,640 Speaker 3: the course because it was something it was for her. Yeah, 1262 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:55,200 Speaker 3: it was something for her, and it made him feel 1263 00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:57,279 Speaker 3: like inadequate, and oh, if she's doing it, why am 1264 00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,920 Speaker 3: I not doing it? But instead of then looking into 1265 00:55:59,960 --> 00:56:01,960 Speaker 3: the maybe I can grow and I could do it, 1266 00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 3: he goes, well, he laughs in a face like your 1267 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:08,760 Speaker 3: person did you know he abuses her or whatever. So anyway, 1268 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 3: it's just to say like, it's not easy. These things 1269 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:13,000 Speaker 3: aren't easy to do. But you know, if you looked 1270 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:14,799 Speaker 3: at if you asked a question, what does this look 1271 00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:17,000 Speaker 3: like in the simplest way, if this was easy, what 1272 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 3: would it look like? And then we were brave enough 1273 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:21,600 Speaker 3: to go through and do that stuff, Yeah, you'd surround 1274 00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:24,240 Speaker 3: yourself with good people, you'd make good decisions. Life wouldn't 1275 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,520 Speaker 3: be tricky. I'm babbling. 1276 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,760 Speaker 1: No, I love it. I love it, and I'm wrapped 1277 00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:31,600 Speaker 1: that you've touched on that, because I think I know 1278 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 1: for me it's taken. Definitely. Use the therapis first all therapy, 1279 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,720 Speaker 1: I want to say. I think there is such power 1280 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:40,720 Speaker 1: in having an understanding of your own psychology. And I 1281 00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 1: go to a therapist, not because I went for like 1282 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 1: four and a half years ago for a really shitty 1283 00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,360 Speaker 1: breakup and we fully put that to bed and packed 1284 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 1: it away and processed it within three sessions and then 1285 00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:53,360 Speaker 1: I said, can I keep coming back? And he was 1286 00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:55,799 Speaker 1: like yeah, he was like, let's get you bulletproof. Like 1287 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:58,680 Speaker 1: that's my kind of like goal and it's mine now 1288 00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:03,320 Speaker 1: complete non ago, And yeah, I think that there's such 1289 00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:07,560 Speaker 1: beauty and understanding and just figure out who you are. 1290 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:10,279 Speaker 1: It's like it's almost like it goes hand in hand 1291 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,080 Speaker 1: with everything that you're about as. 1292 00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:12,759 Speaker 2: Well, for sure. 1293 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 3: It's just it's the whole journey is internal. It looks 1294 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 3: like it's on the outside, it's not. It's like an iceberg. 1295 00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:20,880 Speaker 3: You see the tip of the iceberg and you see 1296 00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 3: jumping out of planes and becoming a TV host or whatever. 1297 00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter that the juice is below the water, 1298 00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:31,640 Speaker 3: and that is internal. It's an internal journey, you know, 1299 00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 3: which is you know, it's interesting you start thinking about 1300 00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:35,400 Speaker 3: COVID and people getting depressed and all that kind of stuff, 1301 00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:37,280 Speaker 3: and that there are ways to kind of you know, 1302 00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:40,400 Speaker 3: people's mindsets are kind of like one of a few 1303 00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:42,840 Speaker 3: different ways. And you kind of heard that people either 1304 00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 3: thrived in COVID or people did the opposite. Not to 1305 00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:48,520 Speaker 3: judge by the way. I completely get people who went downhill, 1306 00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:52,240 Speaker 3: but you know, really like I don't know, the secret 1307 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:54,640 Speaker 3: is me not the secret. But I imagine if you're 1308 00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:56,720 Speaker 3: able to sit down in a room by yourself and 1309 00:57:56,800 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 3: just be comfortable, that's maybe a good sign that you're 1310 00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 3: on the right path. In fact, I heard recently there 1311 00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:05,120 Speaker 3: was a someone did this thing where they were like 1312 00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:07,520 Speaker 3: you have to sit in the room, a room of 1313 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 3: silence for an hour, or or pay us one hundred dollars. 1314 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,120 Speaker 3: It was some experiments something like that might not be exact, 1315 00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,560 Speaker 3: but and most of the people paid the one hundred dollars. 1316 00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:22,240 Speaker 2: Yeah it was, yeah, it was. 1317 00:58:22,280 --> 00:58:23,880 Speaker 3: It was set up something like that but just to 1318 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 3: show more so that like a lot of people are 1319 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,880 Speaker 3: uncomfortable with silence and being still and. 1320 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:31,320 Speaker 1: Yeah in yoga world. Not to bring it back to 1321 00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:34,080 Speaker 1: yrs again, but there's I teach vinyasa in Yinn and 1322 00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:36,640 Speaker 1: Ninna's like for the full hour you only do like 1323 00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:40,400 Speaker 1: five or so posers you're sitting and they say, like 1324 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:45,120 Speaker 1: always try to like get okay with like finding the 1325 00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:47,560 Speaker 1: comfort in the discomfort. Yeah, and it'd be that same 1326 00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:49,920 Speaker 1: kind of didn't you go silent for a week or 1327 00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:50,400 Speaker 1: something too? 1328 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, it wasn't like a typical vinyasa. It's almost called 1329 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:53,800 Speaker 3: the past. 1330 00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:55,959 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1331 00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 3: I was living in New York and I just lived 1332 00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:01,040 Speaker 3: like a really active lifestyle. Went on like a blind date, 1333 00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:03,120 Speaker 3: which was super awkward. I like learned soulsa. I went 1334 00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:05,240 Speaker 3: to a comedy club, I worked in a friend's office 1335 00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 3: for a day. 1336 00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 2: Did I can't remember what else I did in silence? 1337 00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 2: All in silence. 1338 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:11,160 Speaker 1: It's so much harder than you thought. 1339 00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 3: The first few days, I was super scared. I was 1340 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,120 Speaker 3: like it was all my mom. My mom was racing 1341 00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:18,320 Speaker 3: and I was avoiding eye contact. And then after a 1342 00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:20,480 Speaker 3: while that slowed down, and to your point, I just 1343 00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:23,200 Speaker 3: became more comfortable with it and I had really interesting 1344 00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:26,720 Speaker 3: like interactions. The blind date was awful. And the funny 1345 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 3: thing about that though, was I bumped into her maybe 1346 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:35,360 Speaker 3: two years ago in LA and her name is Stephanie, 1347 00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:37,800 Speaker 3: and I like walked up to her and I was 1348 00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 3: like Stephanie, and she's like, oh my god, you're Australian. 1349 00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:44,000 Speaker 3: Like she didn't know I was Australian, so I didn't 1350 00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:46,640 Speaker 3: talk to her. Yeah, it was just really funny. 1351 00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:47,240 Speaker 2: It was great. 1352 00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:51,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I love it.
