The Wellness Puzzle Podcast

Chris Freer had a life many would see as successful. He was the owner of five pubs and two clubs in the United Kingdom, and he was working hard to provide a lifestyle for himself and his family. As often is the case with very driven individuals, great career success comes at a cost. The cost was his marriage, and his wellbeing.When Chris started feeling unwell, he went on a journey to find out what was impacting his well being. Many doctors visits and tests revealed that he had Multiple Sclerosis. The good news, as he was told by one doctor, was that he would still have 20 years before symptoms would really start to appear. Unfortunately for Chris, this was not to be and very soon he was experiencing daily challenges.Coupled with his marriage ending, his ailing health led him to a decision to end the pain, and his life. On the day he decided to commit suicide, and in the moment it was to happen, the eyes of a stranger saved him. Since that day, Chris has made it his mission to show more compassion towards himself, and others, and he is now impacting lives every single day. Trust me when I say, this is a conversation not to be missed.To find out more about Chris, go to his website. Thanks to Jeff and the team at HeXComm for sponsoring this podcast.

Her niche is to help people find the magic that is available to them in romantic relationships.

As I was talking to Sean Bell in Episode 102, called Run for wishes, I was amazing at the incredible believe and capacity of this young man. He had run 50 marathons in 50 days to honor his friend Joey and make a difference and was talking about his next adventure. That was to run from Cairns to Melbourne with a vision of 60 in 60 for 60. In other words, to average 60kms per day for 60 days to raise $60k for the Make a Wish Foundation. He called it Run for Wishes.Well, he didn't do it. He did way better! Instead of 60km's per day, he averaged about 67km. Instead of 60 days, he ran for 62 days. Instead of raising $60,000, he raised over $100,000. He went through seven pairs of running shoes, he ate about 300 donuts, 250 slices of pizza and 14kg of hummus. But the greatest joy for Sean was, not just getting the job done, but was the impact this run has had and will have on many many lives. His vision is to inspire people to get out of their comfort zone, think big ask the question, what if?, and chase their dreams. Sean faced many challenges on this 62 day adventure, but with a dream in his heart, a great team of people around him and the vision of his purpose, he got the job done, one step at a time.

Jeff Teale is passionate about helping people turn their career hours into a meaning, fulfilling and joyful part of their lives. He spent many years of his life doing something that would seem to many as living the dream. However, he was not happy and even though he was travelling the world as a successful entertainer, he was not living his passion, and at the end of the day just doing it for the money. It was just a job. So, he went on a mission to use his experiences to find his calling in life.Recognising that the time people spend in their income producing pursuit is the majority of their waking hours, he dedicated himself to helping people find their calling in life. He started HeXTalent, a Melbourne based Talent eXchange and Career Engagement business. Traditional agency recruitment models have remained unchanged for decades. In many ways the processes are outdated and broken! He wanted to know why haven’t they changed and discovered that it was because owners & consultants can ignore the negative ‘recruiter’ stigma & ‘commercially driven’ (often neglectful) processes, when they see the dollar signs and realise their earning potential.HeXTalent hopes to challenge industry norms by providing an alternative (cost effective) engagement model for clients and a far more connected and humanistic career journey for talent. Now just four years in, he has found his passion and has created an App called HeXComm, to help people connect their career with their wellbeing.

For much of her young adult life, Josie Warren struggled with autoimmune disorders, severe food allergies, a debilitating eating disorder anorexia, alcoholism, ADD, and anxiety and depression. She was told by her medical doctors that each of her diagnoses was lifelong and that she just needed to manage them the best she could for the rest of her life. Josie felt crushed, like a lost cause and there was really no hope for her. She was only in her twenties – these were supposed to be the best years of her life.Fortunately, Josie was on a quest for answers and had a lightening bolt awareness- the emotional stress in her life had unknowingly created all of her illnesses. The good news was she could do something about her stress. From this shift in awareness, she knew she could change her relationship to stress. So, as a result, she decided to jump out into life and face the things that were previously causing her stress. As she began to realize that her illnesses were in her control, in less than two months, all her symptoms dissolved and faded away.Seven years later, Josie is 100 percent healthy and no longer has any of her former conditions. “I feel fully alive, not just surviving.” She is passionate and excited about sharing what saved her life with others.

On his website, Jem Fuller says:Through my colourful and wonderfully varied life, I have been curious as to how much influence we have over the quality of our experiences and the results we get. This interest has led me to study various ancient healing arts, mind practices and in the last 2 decades leadership, coaching, Neuro Linguistic Programming, Human Behavioural Profiling and Mindfulness Meditation.The answer to my enquiry has been a resounding “YES”… The way we think, focus, act and move… our perspective and mental agility, our ability to communicate and access equanimity, have profound impacts on our lives and the lives of others.My mission is to share this with you.I loved my conversation with Jem as he honestly and transparently discusses his journey which has led him around the world, to devastating loss, to learning and growing, and finally to the place now where he impacts and inspires many people through his speaking, his facilitating and his writing.

Not just communication, but deliberate, self-aware and conscious communication.In this conversation we talk about a range of amazing things. We discuss communication, we delve into ego, and we talk about the importance of self-awareness coupled with self-okayness.

Demelza Fellowes has an impressive sporting and business background. She has played more than 180 games of high level netball, including 9 games with Australia. She has been a high performing executive with 15+ years experience in performance programs, commercial partnerships, marketing, events and entertainment across multiple industries, mostly sport. It all began because of her desire to experience all that life had to offer and say 'yes' at every opportunity. Demelza loves pursuing excellence and enabling magical experiences. It all started as a child, where she was encouraged to go out and experience life. After reading a notice on the sports notice board at school that there was a netball group looking for players, she said 'yes' and off she went. That was the beginning of an impressive netball career that included 9 test caps with Australia. Her success after sport, within many organisations, has happened with her same zest for living and willingness to just give things a go.She has learned a lot about being more attentive, focussed and intentional about her 'yeses', however, she is still interested in squeezing the most out of life and the experiences it offers every single day.

I was totally spellbound as I listened the wisdom and felt the incredible energy of the amazing Cliona Byrne. She wasn't always so confident and radiant as she is now. She used to stand in front of the mirror, suck in her tummy, and emotionally beat herself up for how she looked. Her bitchy inner critic (as she calls it) used to love to tell her that she needed to lose weight.She said, "I’ve since slapped the microphone out of that bitch’s hand."Cliona used to believe that her life would be 10x shinier, happier, and more fabulous once she hit her goal weight. Long story short, that didn’t work. She also had a crooked bite for the first 20 years of her life and had to wear a brace for 4 years in her late teens and twenties AND had her jaw broken and re-aligned. As you can imagine, her body confidence wasn’t anywhere near the bikini wearing level it is now. She used to hide from the camera and felt uncomfortable in her body at family gatherings. She was the person who wore black baggy clothes to hide herself and spent the whole time feeling fat.Over time Cliona started to see a confident woman looking back at her in the mirror, as she saw the real her. She started to actually like the way she looked! She began wearing whatever she wanted (that includes a bikini), She stopped being afraid of the camera, and finally felt that shiny happy feeling she thought she would feel once she lost weight and had the surgery to fix her jaw. It turns out that she didn’t need to change herself to get that feeling, she just had to change her relationship with herself. She has now become the coach for adults, parents and teens that she needed when she was a teen. This is a powerful and life-altering conversation, not to be missed.To find out more about Cliona, go to her website. Thanks to Pietro and the team at Fitii for sponsoring this podcast.

His focus on helping people identify values and living a value-driven life by getting them to ask 'the miracle question' is inspiring.

The story of Leanne Spencer starts in March 2012. She was working for a market data company in the City of London; her career had spanned about 17 years but she was bored and unfulfilled, and self-medicating against increasing stress levels with alcohol (lots of it, daily). She felt like she was wasting her life, bouncing from pay day to pay day and living in an increasingly unsustainable way. Things came to a head one afternoon in March, as she was crossing over London Bridge having left a client meeting and had just received bad news about a deal she was expecting to hit my sales target. She was burned out, chronically abusing alcohol and several stone overweight. In addition to that, everything she was doing and saying lacked authenticity. It was time for a drastic change.On Monday morning she resigned. She was free, but unemployed and with very little in her savings account. It was a nervous time because she had no clear plan about what she was going to do next. She realised what she wanted to do was really at the intersection of two things: business and health, so that was the genesis of her company, Bodyshot. Since then, she has written three bestselling books, hosts two podcasts, has been written about in Entrepreneur Magazine and have spoken for companies such as Odeon Cinemas, DAZN, Britvic, Zurich Insurance, iTech Media, Bacardi, Thoughtworks, Moonbug Entertainment, Flywire and many more. Her personal values are to live truthfully, considerately and to "suck all the marrow out of life" to paraphrase the poet Thoreau. In this fabulous podcast we discuss the key aspects of living a life of joy, and totally aligned with identity, values and purpose. The key area we focus on is recovery and how to simply and easily incorporate slivers of recovery into even the most hectic of lifestyles. This truly is a wonderful conversation I know you will benefit from.To find out more about Leanne, go to her website. Thanks to Pietro and the team at Fitii for sponsoring this podcast.

Jonathan calls himself an online nutrition and fitness coach, but I discovered very quickly that he is way more than that.The fact he ballooned to well over 100lbs (45kg) overweight was an emotional and fear based response to a couple of pretty traumatic experiences. To be attacked by a group of four men who tried to beat him to death in Africa is a hard event to easily overcome. as is losing everything in a failed business venture. His binge eating to cover up his own self-loathing got him to the point he knew he needed to reach out and ask for help.It was the compassion that was shown to him by his coach, and what he leaned about self-worth, that helped him to, day-by-day and one step at a time, transform his life. He now spends his life, with compassionate awareness, helping other people enjoy the lives they were destined to live. He is a humble and inspiring man, and this truly is a conversation that everyone needs to hear.To find out more about Jonathan, go to his website.

Michael Alcée grew up seeing therapy and thriving go hand in hand. As a social worker, his mother had an office on the side of their house, and he would often pass clients on their way out as he was riding his bike down the street. They looked so much lighter than when they came in. Intrigued by the magic happening inside, he wanted to learn how to create and be a part of that magic, too.It wasn’t uncommon for his piano practice to sneak in past the soundproofing of my mother’s office. Surprisingly enough, many clients told her how much they enjoyed the playing, lamenting it when it wasn’t there, and even requesting it when it was quiet. From this, Michael learned the importance of how much we all seek to have the arts in our lives – and what a difference that truly makes. As somebody who’s always appreciated music, literature, and the arts, he loves to bring it all together in his work as a therapist and to be part of the magic that therapy truly brings.Michael, now a PhD in clinical psychology, a psychotherapist, a mental health educator and an author, his passion is to help his clients feel the freedom on the inside so they can create the life they want on the outside.

Kate Strong and I, from different ends of the world, spoke as guests on each others podcasts. To be honest, talking to Kate, I felt, and still feel, that I need to play a bigger game. As she shared her story with me, and then told me how she had given up all her revenue streams to focus on building a bike out of bamboo in preparation to ride 5000km around the UK to create awareness of climate change, I knew this was a special lady and it was going to be an incredible conversation. I wasn't wrong.Kate has incredible diversity in her background: engineer, athlete, coach, speaker, adventurer and advocate. She spoke about her transition from business owner, living in poverty, yet with so much richness, as she described it, to world champion tri-athlete in just two years, which is an incredible story in itself. Then to find her mission and passion for advocating for action against climate change and building sustainability, which has got her doing things that many would not believe possible. She is most certainly living a bigger game than many.Kate is currently operating and thriving on faith that things will fall into place, and there are. She is focussed on her own identity and making sure it is one that she cannot lose in the journey of life.

I have to admit, I sat spellbound for the vast majority of this podcast as Charlene Madden told her story. I need to just warn you, as a potential listener, this podcast and what Charlene has experienced in her life is confronting and may be triggering for some people. But let me tell you, it will also be very inspiring, healing and hope-giving as Charlene, despite decades of abuse, addiction, mental health challenges and suicidal intent is now living a life full of passion and purpose inspiring people all around the world.When she spoke at her first event after choosing to live and help other people, and told her story, she explained to the audience her mission was to save just one life. Well, that mission was achieved when, as she was walking off stage she was approached by a lady who said: You said your mission was to save one life, well, you did it! The lady then simply turned and walked away. This is testament to the power of the story you are about to listen to.Abandoned as a small child by her parents, sexually abused by her grandfather for 9 years from the age of 3 is not the beginning to life you would wish on anyone! It's not hard to understand why addiction, self-harm, zero-self worth and suicidal thoughts followed for Charlene and haunted her for many decades. How she is still here and now doing what she is doing, with an unconditional love for herself, came through divine intervention, for sure. She is inspiring people all around the world to choose life.

She had a great job as a lawyer, worked on complex cases involving interesting legal issues, was appreciated and supported by her colleagues, was able to do a significant amount of pro bono work for victims of domestic violence and was eventually named leader of the firm’s pro bono domestic violence program. She made a lot of money, had a charming home in a beautiful city, had two cute little dogs and a loving husband. Even though on the outside Kara looked successful, she was unhappy. She was not sure why she was unhappy. Given everything she had, she thought she should be happy. But she felt like my life primarily consisted of expending all of her energy at work, pushing her body and mind to their limits, coming home at night, eating dinner in a daze, collapsing into bed and then doing it all over again. She felt tired most of the time, her body ached, she had a number of health issues and her relationships felt superficial. She was also plagued by self-critical and fearful thoughts, nothing she did was ever good enough for her, no amount of success was enough. After six years of law, she decided to leave and find healing, joy and her dream life. She tried everything and committed a full time approach for 18 months to find answers, only to find herself in a deeper and darker place than before she left law. Now questioning her decision to leave her profession, she decided to try one more thing, Kundalini Yoga. It was in that moment, she found something that actually helped her, and started her off on an exciting journey.Kara now combines the dedication and commitment that it took to become a successful attorney, real-life training in what it takes to succeed at high-levels, and extensive research, experience and training in how to optimize our lives, to help individuals excel in their professional and creative endeavours, be energized and excited about life, and experience their full potential. She does this through Optimization Programs she developed, Coaching and teaching Kundalini Yoga.

Several years before his AFL career really took off Shaun Hart experienced a severe mental health challenge. His focus was on his fitness, his performance and his work ethic to the point of exhaustion, physically mentally and emotionally. It got to the point he didn't even want to get out of bed, and if it wasn't for his wife and the club chaplain, he would have given up. Instead, he went on to play 273 games, including three successful premierships in a row with the Lions, and winning the coveted Norm Smith medal in 2001, for best player in the Grand Final.What changed for Shaun, and in fact the whole team, was the shift in focus from performance based identity to identity based performance. Knowing that he was a valuable person, then player, irrespective of his on field performance made all the difference to his game, and was the reason for the club amazing success. Since then, Shaun has gone on to coach sporting teams, businesses and individuals with this same emphasis.Shaun talks in detail about the third dimension of the human experience, one that many ignore, and highlights why it is the most important. The first dimension is physical, the second mental and the third spiritual.

Craig Harper and I go back many decades and he is a great friend and former business partner of mine. He is a powerful speaker, prolific author, popular radio presenter and host of globally acclaimed the 'You Project' podcast. We are back together in this podcast with a mission to help you do things differently in 2022. We re-coined the well-worn, over-used and less-than-effective phrase 'News Years Resolution', to the new-and-improved 'New Years Restitution'.The definition of restitution is: The act of restoring to the rightful owner something that has been taken away, lost, or surrendered. We have all had things taken away, lost or surrendered and then we try to compensate by striving, pushing and fighting for external achievement in the hope that it will help us feel better about ourselves. Well, that's me anyway! For me, being a professional athlete, having an athletic body, being and author or the other things I achieved never worked to help me feel worthy. That is why I needed restitution. My feeling is that many people feel the same.Craig shares his incredible insights into building the inner person, through focussing on values, identity and the things that bring joy. Life is to be lived and loved, and when we remove the rubbish that society expects of us and follow our own path, then loving life becomes a very real option. It is my greatest desire that you will immerse yourself into this conversation with Craig Harper and get all the wisdom that he has to share.Craig can be found on his website and InstagramThanks to Pietro and the team at Fitii for sponsoring this podcast.

Because of his very analytical right-brain thinking, Matheo Galatis was formally trained as a Chartered Accountant with experience in mining, banking, retail and distribution. However, what his educational advice failed to take into account was that this career was not his passion, not did it energise or excite him. Consequently, Matheo spent an immense amount of time learning and studying various disciplines of healing and human potential. He has immersed himself in diverse personal development programs some of which he now facilitates.He has personally trained over 200 consciousness coaches, has mentored over 40 coaches and has also trained and examined high performance transformational trainers and teams internationally. He has lead group transformational training programs for over 3000 participants in public courses, organisational trainings and retreats since 2012. Matheo is also a coach examiner and coach supervisor. He has worked with clients from 27 different countries, ranging from successful CEO’s, political and public personalities, executives, coaches, trainers, therapists and entrepreneurs.What blew me away in this conversation Matheo was his perspective around self-worth and living a true and authentic life. When the truth is revealed, Matheo believes real communication and transformation can occur. He is currently writing a book on how to increase self-worth and transform feelings of unworthiness, and believes when we resolve our past, we allow ourselves to pursue our true potential. Matheo is taking the personal development industry to a whole new level by supporting people to find what he calls ‘your transformational why’ – the one thing that usually prevents them from getting unstuck and achieving their life ambitions. This is a powerful, inspiring and wonderful conversation you do not want to miss.To find out more about Matheo Click here. Thanks to Pietro and the team at Fitii for sponsoring this podcast.

The research that he undertook was eye opening and life changing. It was changing his life and he knew that it would do the same to the men of his generation.

I am blessed to have known Perry Venakis for well over 20 years, so far. When we met, he was just starting his personal training journey after a very interesting background as a mechanic, a farmer and then with a passion to help people with their health and well being. His journey led him to an intense interest in the role that nutrition played in body building, but also how it impacted every person and in every area of life. Perry works with many people to help them live optimal lives through eating simply, naturally and nutritionally to help them get results that seem to very complex. This interest led him, at the age of 55, to study a Masters degree in nutrition and then go on to start the Australia Academy of Raw Nutrition.In this podcast we discuss a very topical and relevant subject: surviving the silly season and making it a season to be healthy. There are many temptations and challenges to looking after ourselves at this time of the years. Unfortunately, many people, in just a couple of weeks, will do significant damage to their bodies without even realising it, with the attitude of over-indulgence at this time of the year. It doesn't have to be that way, and you can still indulge, enjoy and stay lean, healthy and energised at this time of the year.Perry and I chat about some simple but powerful strategies that will transform your eating habits and your life, at this treacherous time of the year, if you take them on board and take action. It is my greatest desire that you will take positive action and truly make it a season to be healthy. Perry is a knowledgeable, passionate and entertaining man who I loved talking to. I know you will get a lot from this podcast, so please enjoy.Find out more about Perry on his Instagram page and/or email him at [email protected] to Pietro and the team at Fitii for sponsoring this podcast.

Helen Mac has been inspiring and empowering people for many decades. She is the author of two books, has contributed to another four, is a professional speaker, empowering trainer and passionate coach. Her message is strong and clear and it is that optimism is where we need to be, if living our best life is the goal. She explained to me the difference between optimism and positive thinking, and it was very powerful.Helen's resolve and message of optimism was severely tested when her husband of 30 years, Lachlan, became very ill and passed away only four years ago. As she was describing this heartbreaking journey, she also inspired me with the passion and love she and Lachlan had for each other. I was spellbound as she explained how they went about making sure Lachlan left as he chose to go and Helen lived her life after he had gone. I discovered one thing for sure: optimism is not just what Helen talks about, it is how she lives her life. Helen's process for an optimising life is simple and empowering, and I know it will impact every single person who listens and acts of her four step process. She has transformed her life, her business and is now re-married and blissfully happy.

Jan Cocks-Salvemini was born into a beautiful family with parents who encouraged her to dream big and fight for her dreams. That was certainly a profound strength when, at the age of 10-months, she became para-abled for life after being bitten by a diseased mosquito. She now has limited use of the right side of her body, wears a big bright red boot to get around, and is blissfully happy in her life.Jan is on a mission to change the word 'disabled' to 'para-abled', as she believes 'disabled' is a negative word that somehow indicates these people are less than able-bodied people. This is a lady with plans to take her voice to the United Nations and World Health Organisation to state her case. So, as you can see, she is still dreaming big and believing for a global change in attitude towards the one billion people in the world who currently have a para-ability.She is such an energised and engaging communicator who is passionate about her cause. She had me when she told me the story of walking through a shopping center wearing the bright red boot she needed to keep her ankle from collapsing. You will love the story as I did. This is a powerful, inspiring and wonderful conversation you do not want to miss.To connect with Jan on LinkedIn Click here. Thanks to Pietro and the team at Fitii for sponsoring this podcast.

I have an incredible passion, in fact mission and purpose, to create a wave of wellness all around the world and help people live their best lives. My guest host Deborah Stathis has a very similar purpose. As I launch my latest book 'TEARS of Joy', I am truly excited about and expecting that this book will impact the hearts and minds of everyone who reads it. I want people to experience tears of joy in their lives over and over again. I want people to understand there is a predictable process to make that happen. That is what the book and this podcast is all about.Everything we have and will have, experience and will experience in our lives are the end product of the unconscious routines we create. Those routines if deliberately created, will produce tears of joy, trust me. It all starts with a deliberate focus of our thoughts, which leads us to experience an empowering emotion, which by definition moves us into spontaneous action. With determination and the right strategies we can all develop the routines that will lead us to abundant and joyful success in life. That is what the book and this podcast is all about.Deb does an amazing job hosting this podcast, and she is an inspiring example of this TEARS of joy process. You will love the conversation. You will be inspired by the stories. You will be empowered to create permanent positive change in your life. You will be ready to get started as soon as the podcast is over.

Kelly Murphy, Jarred Kellerman and I got together with one goal in mind. That is to help teenagers believe more in themselves, find more confidence in the strengths they have and feel empowered to speak up and feel heard. You may have heard that it takes a community to raise a healthy young person, but actually, it takes a healthy and aware community to raise healthy young people. This is why we started YACC, Youth Advocates of Community Change. To help young people, parents, educators and community leaders come together, get on the same page and build a healthy and aware community.Kelly Murphy after dealing with trauma and homelessness as a young person is a personal counselor who works with many troubled your people at the Australian Center of Trauma and Wellness. Jarred Kellerman, also with challenges as a disengaged young person, is now on a mission to help build resilience in adolescent youth & improve confidence in joining the "real world". These are two wonderful people who I respect totally and love working with.This is a powerful conversation about how we can help empower the amazing potential that lies within every young person. Regardless of whether you are a teenager, were a teenager, have a teenager, educate teenagers or having any contact with or influence over a teenager, this conversation will have something that will make a difference, not just in the lives of young people, but in your own life as well. This is a powerful, inspiring and wonderful conversation you do not want to miss.To connect with Jarred Kellerman Click here.

I first met Susan Meaney when she was senior leader, amazing athlete and Australian player with the Melbourne Phoenix Netball Club. Myself and my good friend Craig Harper had the privilege of doing the strength and conditioning work for the team for several years. She was a super-focussed and incredibly disciplined athlete who made the most of her time as a player, going on to play close to 250 games at the highest level, including 9 for her country. Susan was way more than an incredible athlete. She was a great leader of people and did so by example and by encouraging (and entertaining) her team mates. When her first son came along, she decided to leave the sport as a player and focus on being the best mother she could be. Now with four children, Meaners (as I call her), has been able to find and love her new life as a mother, but also as an influencer in sport and with the younger generation coming through. How she transitioned from elite sport to amazing mum, is a wonderful story all parents, sports people and, in fact, everyone, needs to hear.The comment that resonated with me the most was when Meaners said, 'life is not a competition', and that comparison with others will never lead to happiness. She suggested we stay in our own lane, which I love. Susan is focused on her own wellbeing, her family and making a difference in the lives of people she comes into contact with. This is a powerful, inspiring and wonderful conversation you do not want to miss.To connect with Susan on FB Click here. Thanks to Pietro and the team at Fitii for sponsoring this podcast.
