Ep 83Hour of power
Pavel Verbnyak is a passionate man. He was born in communist Soviet Union, under very strict and controlling rule, and he had a passionate desire to be free from the limiting thoughts and beliefs that were a hangover from that time. Even though he was very young when the Iron Curtain came down, the Russian people were still very much conditioned with these limitations, and breaking free took strength courage and passion. Pavel was a young man when he decided he would not be bound by limits and set off on a life-changing journey to understand the secrets of success.

Ep 79It's never too late to have a happy childhood
The very last thing Yair Kellner said after this captivating conversation, and talking about more than 60 years of adventure, outdoors, camping, hiking, paddle-boarding, canoeing, climbing and bike-packing was this; It's never too late to have a happy childhood. Now in his mid-sixties, Yair is still loving his childhood, and all the adventures that go with it.From the age of five he has had a passion for the great outdoors, the beauty of nature, and learning to adapt in environments much different to the one most of us are used to. The lessons he has picked up along the way are not just about how to survive when you fall through the ice in 30-50 degree below temperatures with an 80kg fully-laden bike. He has learned about perspective, humility, peace, mindfulness, determination and understanding the rules that each situation requires. How he survived in Alaska, when all the odds were stacked against him, is a story you don't want to miss. I mean, when taking all your clothes off after getting out of the below zero river to avoid them encasing you in the 30 degree below outside air is your best option for survival, you know things are bad. This is a man with calm courage, life experience, amazing wisdom and powerful stories. This is a wonderful conversation you will want to enjoy.To send a message to Yair, contact me via email here.Thanks to Pietro and the team at Fitii for sponsoring this podcast.

Ep 77Healing through feeling
Up until the age of 12, Matthew Caruana had lived a very typical life for a child in the city of Sydney. He had a great family, lots of friends and a comforting neighborhood, BUT everything was about to change drastically!He constantly questioned his self worth, self image and whether he even brought any value to the world? He often wondered if people would even care if he was alive or not? This caused major depression within himself and after years of dwelling on these questions, he felt even more worthless and struggled to see a reason to go on. He could’ve sworn he was the only one at the time feeling these emotions and having these thoughts, so he bottled them up and kept them all within.These thoughts sent him down a path of destruction with drug abuse, depression, anxiety and ultimately on the 9th of January 2016, at only 16 years of age, he decided enough was enough and it was time to end his suffering. He made the final decision that it was time to end his life. Suicide seemed like his only option. He thought it would be his final moment, but woke up in hospital, two weeks later, with a Spinal Cord Injury and a level of sadness and depression, now enhanced by the fact that he couldn’t even do suicide right.He had to quickly adapt to new changes in his life. After a chance encounter with an inspiring stranger, he discovered the value in connection and relationships, and began to open up to others. With that, all meaningful relationships grew closer in his life and things started to progressively get better for him! Most importantly, he began to feel acceptance.He started to believe he could help people and so began sharing his story. As he did, all thoughts and feelings of Depression, Anxiety and Suicide magically disappeared. The questions about self worth and self image were soon replaced with a sense of purpose and a reason to live. He had found his calling and realised he could help others to find theirs. His message is powerful. His message is that when we feel, we will heal, and when share, we see how much people care.

Ep 75See the solution
Jamie Ryder was gifted with the (dis) ability of dyslexia. This reduced his ability in reading and spelling, and it super charged his ability to see patterns. He sees through problems, tragedy & negativity and clearly see an opportunity, solution & possibility. Having this (dis) ability is hugely powerful, however, learning it for him has been a wild ride.For Jamie, winning was everything, as a cowboy, a financial planner, a businessman and entrepreneur. His opponent wasn’t his enemy, he had become his own enemy. At his core he felt 2nd place was the first loser. He saw loss as him being a loser, he saw failure as worse than loss and had created his own false reality that loss & failure would define him as such. How wrong he was. He found himself through tragedy, won through loss and succeeded though failure. He gained perception, value, depth, meaning, experience, character and humility. And through this he found his purpose.Since that time, Jamie has clocked up almost 250,000 connections on TikTok, is an empowering mindset coach and is an engaging and inspiring speaker. Finding gratitude when adversity hits is one of his specialties, and as a result of his dyslexia, being able to see solutions enables him to help many people. If you want to overcome challenges and trauma in your life, and create abundance, then this is a conversation you must hear.Find out more about Jamie here.Take advantage of his FREE 45-min discovery session here.

Ep 74Overcome overwhelm and burnout
In 2011, Geneviève Pépin got her dream job. She thought to herself, ”Starting today, I am waking up knowing that I am working toward saving the world." She gave it everything she got. A year later, she resigned. She was crying in the shower, developed an eating disorder, and didn’t want to get out of bed anymore. Enough!She was lucky to be offered another dream job opportunity right after. New job, new life! She had a supportive boss, was working with awesome people, and loved her job. She worked hard and climbed the ladder and was on top of the world. In 2014, things started going south, again. Her anxiety levels were off the charts, she often worked until midnight, her eating disorder was getting stronger, and she found myself crying, alone in my city-center apartment more often than not. Within 60 days she had moved to a different continent – and as soon as she got her work visa, was offered a great management job opportunity. This was late 2015. New country, new language, new colleagues, new job, new life! She was determined to succeed. In 2017, her stress levels were higher than ever, her eating disorder was replaced by other self-harming behaviors, she didn’t care about her job anymore and was coming home crying. She quit. She then got into entrepreneurship and was determined to create the real change she wanted to see in the world. New boss (her), new industry, new lifestyle, new life! She was glued to her computer and gave it everything I got, and you guessed it, after the honeymoon phase passed, her health and happiness started going south. Again. Then things finally changed for Geneviève as she finally realised the one thing in common with each period of burnout, was her and her mindset. She then went about to change her life, and in the process is changing lives all around the world. If you want to overcome overwhelm and burnout and banish the word 'busy' then this is a conversation you must hear.Find out more about Geneviève here.Take advantage of her FREE 30-min gift here.

Ep 73Pure perpetual positivity
In 1995, Jackie Simmons was blindsided by her 14-year-old daughter’s suicide attempt after a day of clothes shopping went awry. This took Jackie down a path which led to depression, addiction, medical mysteries, and deadly silences. The journey into the world of mental health services and cultural taboos left Jackie feeling lost and alone. Although she declared to the outside world that she was fine, Jackie hid her deep, psychic wounds behind a façade of frantic entrepreneurial activity. Then on August 3, 2019, Jackie’s now 37-year-old daughter, broke the silence. Jackie calls August 3, the day her “purpose tapped her on the shoulder.” From that moment, with her daughters, Jackie's mission became to prevent teen suicide. Together they created “The Talk to Stop Teen Suicide,” a script to build emotional resiliency inside families and beyond. Jackie calls the strategy a way to create pure prevention, but trust me it is way more than that. It is absolutely a way to move people towards pure perpetual positivity. Now a TEDx speaker, Radio Show Host, International Best-selling Author, Mindset Magician, co-founder and Director of the Teen Suicide Prevention Society, Jackie is focussed on her mission to “Stop Teen Suicide.” This conversation is real, raw and powerful and you will be inspired to become part of this movement to, not just save so many valuable lives, but help lead them to purpose, passion and perpetual positivity.

Ep 69Flip your journey to freedom
In 2018 Bruce Molloy could not have found himself at a darker place in life. Ironically, just a few months before losing his job, his relationship and his home, he had purchased a camper van to go on some travels with his then partner. As he contemplated his situation, and with some very dark thoughts, he spotted a twenty cent coin wedged between the windscreen and the dashboard of his camper van. He picked it up and, with nothing else to lose, decided to flip the coin to direct his next move.That simple and single flip of the coin, started Bruce on a wonderful journey of travel, experiences, enlightenment and freedom, that he still enjoys to this day. It took him around Australia and over to Bali. It helped him face and overcome many fears. It was the reason why he wrote his book in just 10 days. It was what brought him back to Australia where he started his business Black Dog Green. I was mesmerised as I listened to Bruce talk about this incredible journey. As soon as it was over, I flipped a coin to work out what I would have for dinner that night, and I ended up cooking something that I had not previously considered, It was yummy. I know you will be totally engrossed by Bruce in this podcast. Hopefully it will inspire you to flip a coin and let go of some of the things holding you back from living the life of adventure that is waiting for you.

Ep 68With simplicity there is so much complexity
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. He turned his knowledge and experience to help body builders get positive results in a much more healthy and natural way, and had great success with many people he worked with.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.Perry and I chat about some simple but powerful concepts that will transform your eating habits and your life, if you take them on board and take action. He 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.

Ep 67Letting go
Lachlan Winter is director of Abilitive Pty Ltd an NDIS registered provider for support work, support coordination and allied health services. I am also a practicing Accredited Exercise Physiologist. His passion is around the concept of physical freedom. He believes the human body is capable of so much more than almost all of us give it credit for. It is his aim to spread that belief. This message comes from Lachlan's own lived experience of many extremes from professional athlete to decrepit and bed bound with illness and to his current state of a more balanced being.Standing at a height of 7 feet (213cm) tall, Lachlan has spend many years of his life pursuing high achievement. He chased a professional basketball career, with the goal of being the best ever. He chased control over his circumstances after being bullied at school for his height. And for well over a decade, he chased optimal wellbeing after being stuck with the debilitating Crohn's disease.At his lowest point point, and on the edge of life, he weighed only 60kg, when the normal weight for his height was 120kg. It was a relenting and heart-breaking journey looking for answers that finally led him to letting go of his need to have all the answers. After surrendering to the help of others and trusting that all would be okay, he finally found the answers that helped him regain his health and his life. This is a compelling and passionate podcast that you do not want to miss.Find out more about Lachlan on his instagram page and his business on his websiteThanks to Pietro and the team at Fitii for sponsoring this podcast.

Ep 65Reach out
I am so grateful to have come across Millicent Tuhakaraina on LinkedIn. What an amazing lady. After spending much of her childhood exposed to violence, drugs and death, just trying to survive and to protect her siblings and cousins, she is now committed to creating positive change in the world. She is particularly focused on helping young people overcome trauma and triumph over adversity (TOA).The saying goes, it takes a community to raise a child. Milli is more concerned about who is looking after the community to ensure that it raises healthy children. After telling her story and sharing it online, she found many young people reaching out to her, asking for help. This was the catalyst for her to quit her job in the middle of the 2020 COVID pandemic and start Pasifiika TOA. Her mission with this movement is in empowering young people to know, feel and see that we value them as our emerging leaders, and supporting young people to be who they already are!!Milli's passion will burst though your speakers as you listen to her. Her desire is that any young people or people in communities who are suffering will reach out and ask for help. She is at a very early stage in this journey and has a big vision, so any help you can offer Pasifika TOA will be gratefully accepted, even if just sharing this podcast.

Wow! What an incredible conversation with nine time author Petrea King, who holds a special place in my heart. She is an amazing lady who my mother and father reached out to when my mum was going through her cancer journey. Petrea had a profoundly positive impact on both my parents, and was a large part of the reason my mother outlived her cancer diagnosis by 15 years. In fact, my parents helped Petrea get the Quest for Life Foundation (QFLF) off the ground back in the 1980's.Since that time, Petrea and the team at QFLF have helped tens of thousands of people living with cancer and other life-challenging illnesses, grief, loss, trauma and tragedy. She is at the forefront of wellness education and is a frequent lecturer at medical and other conferences. Petrea sees crisis as a catalyst for personal growth and understanding and as an opportunity for healing and peace. I sat spellbound for this entire conversation with Petrea as she spoke about many wonderful ideas to help every single person on the planet deal with the trauma and suffering that is a part of the human experience. For me, the most profound moment came when she declared that one of the main things that helped her overcome her diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia and just three months to live, was weeping the tears over the following few weeks. This is a conversation that every person needs to hear and a podcast you do not want to miss.Find out more about Petrea and the Quest for Life Foundation on their websiteThanks to Pietro and the team at Fitii for sponsoring this podcast.

Ossie Khan is doing amazing things. Not only does he jump out of planes on a regular basis, he helps many people face and overcome their fears to do the same thing. His 27 plus years of experience and lessons have led him to a successful career as a sky-diver, teacher, speaker and encourager, and led him to say, “Skydiving at its core is about reading situations, making decisions and being accountable for your actions."When he declared that he had done over 10,000 jumps and never once broken a bone, I was interested. He explains that the reason why is because he is always focussed on and committed to the preparation and process required to get everything done properly, even if it takes longer than he would like.

Ep 50The purpose in adversity
Peter Chambers is an inspiring Aussie who, whilst living with the incurable Motor Neurone Disease, has found a reason to be and is living a wonderful life. From deep within he has found peace in the storm and purpose in his adversity and is now on a mission to make the most of every second, enjoy the simple things in life and make a positive difference in the lives of others.Peter's first symptoms in late 2017 to early 2018 led to a spinal fusion operation in May 2018. After the operation, his shoulders lost muscle rapidly and, whilst he gradually regained some use in his left arm, his left hand was severely weakened and he has never regained any more than about 10% of movement in his right arm. Neurologists, at the end of 2019, finally agreed the diagnosis was MND. He was diagnosed the Arm Flail version of MND, which lead to his arms losing all muscle first, then other muscles to follow.Rather than fall into victim mode, Peter chose to find the positives in his situation, to live and love every moment and to fuel his purpose. He now devotes his time and energy to helping promote awareness of the disease and to be a voice of advocacy. I love his attitude towards life and Peter Chambers is a man who will touch your heart and your life.

Ep 48The hidden benefits
I have known Natalie Matthews for more than five years, and the thing that stood out to me most, when I met for the first time, was the confidence this lady exuded as she towered above most people in her six foot three inch body and her three-four inch heels! She has always loved her height and the resulting benefits she has experienced in her life. The only challenge for her, and for many tall women, was finding beautiful clothes to wear, hence she began her fashion business, Height of Fashion.I speak again to Natalie after a wonderful conversation in Episode 19 called 'Embrace your uniqueness.' More than 7 months later, despite her own COVID related adversity which has separated her and restricted her from being with her family in the UK, she has a very powerful message. It's been a tough time for Natalie, however, she has some powerful perspective which can help anyone going through a challenging time, or wanting to live their best life.Natalie shares ideas about how to find the purpose that we are all put on this planet for, and she talks in detail and with great passion about the hidden benefits that can be found in every challenge, if we choose to look for them.

Ep 47Survival to thrival!
I first saw Tracey Jewel on the reality show, 'Married at First Sight' back in 2018 where she really impressed me with the way she handled herself with an ongoing barrage of traumatic experiences on the show. It was then a random meeting where Tracey and I actually met for the first time, and after that, I was even more impressed with this inspiring lady At that time I didn't know that she was already a successful author, speaker and coach who helped empower people to live their best lives. So, Tracey and I started running some events together, but the wheels started falling off Tracey's wagon, as she wasn't expecting the relentless and hateful fallout she would experience on social media from her time on television. It was this horrific and inexcusable bullying that left Tracey feeling helpless and spiralling to the point where taking her own life seemed to be the only way out.The great news is that Tracey is a resilient and courageous lady who picked herself up, dusted herself off and has gone onto rebuild herself and her life. In this conversation with Tracey, I invented a new word, as I described her journey as going from survival to thrival. If you would like to know how to 'thrival' in your own life, then this is a wonderfully inspiring conversation that I encourage you to listen to.Tracey can be found on her website and followed and contacted on his Instagram pageMy website is www.andrewjobling.com.au

Ep 46An amazing life lies beyond comfort
I first saw Tim Robards on the reality show, 'The Bachelor' back in 2013 where he really impressed me with his approach to the show, and the ladies on the show. It's no surprise he met and married his wife, Anna, on that show and they had recently had their first child. It was a random meeting at Melbourne airport where I first met him and Anna, and I was very grateful for their openness to chat. Tim has a background as a chiropractor, but his passion was always to be an actor. His story of dreaming, working and getting way out of his comfort zone has helped him create an incredible life of passion and purpose. In addition to his appearance on 'The Bachelor', he has competed on 'Australian Ninja Warrior', acted in many TV commercials and finally, after 15 years, got his opportunity to act on the very popular TV serial, 'Neighbours.'I love his attitude towards success. It's about having a go at things, even if they scare you. He made it a habit of getting out of his comfort zone time after time, starting when he was child who was influenced by his grandmother to hug trees! What I got most out of this chat with Tim is that amazing opportunities and a great life lies beyond the comfort zone. This is a wonderfully inspiring conversation that I encourage you to listen to.Tim can be found on his website and followed and contacted on his Instagram pageMy website is www.andrewjobling.com.au

Laura Hingston is an Australian 10m platform diver on a world stage and aspiring for her first Olympic Games in Tokyo 2021, but that was not always the case.

Very quickly, with incredible focus, she became an elite gymnast, but the young Victorian transferred through the VIS to Diving, after having career ending back surgery. Now, she is a member of the National Team and competes in both the 10m Individual and Synchronised events on the world stageWith the same passion she gave to her gymnastics, she took to diving and found herself diving off the 10m platform at a world class level.

Ep 43Harnessing the power of emotion.
Deborah Stathis was a normal, happy and optimistic 19-year-old, when the car she was driving hit a slippery part of the highway, slid out of control and wrapped itself around a telegraph pole, crushing her on the inside. There were no airbags in the car, so Deb sustained life-altering injuries to her face, her eyes and her brain. Medical professionals stated that she would never be the same and would be affected, physically and mentally, for the rest of her life. Deb did not accept that diagnosis.The definining moment came for Deb whilst alone in her room in the rehab centre. She decided to look at the thing she had been protected from for many weeks... her face. She looked at the devastating injuries, she cried and she said to herself, "You're here now, what are you going to do?" What she did will amaze and inspire you as she went on to transform and reconstruct her face, her body and her life.It was the fear she experienced when she thought about a permanently affected life that enabled her to harness the power of a relentless determination that moved her into positive action. This emotion and action continued until she had beaten every medical odd and recreated the Deborah Stathis she wanted to be. Having proved opportunities can be created from tragedy, Deborah shares how, by harnessing the power of emotion, anything is possible. Trust me when I say, this is a podcast and a conversation that will change your life.Deborah can be found on her website at www.tragicopportunities.comMy website is www.andrewjobling.com.au

Ep 40Behind the music
I met Morgan Beard through Fernando Parnes, founder of BestBeing and sponsor of this podcast. Morgan and I spoke in podcast #10, called Getting through the mud and the muck. I was immediately impressed, engaged and inspired by this 30 year old dynamo. Listening to her wisdom, you would certainly not expect someone so young in years.As you listen to Morgan's maturity, it's hard to imagine she has been through so much torment, torture, suffering, depression and suicidal thoughts as she has. She gets raw and vulnerable as she talks about some of the ups and downs of 2020 and the impact of COVID on herself and her clients. As a talented musician, when she finally gave herself permission to enjoy this pursuit, the transformation was incredible. Behind the music was a fearful lady, but that same music helped her move through the darkness and into the light. Morgan is now really making a difference in many lives.I threw a challenge at Morgan for this podcast. That was to write and sing a song that would show people the power music has to help deal with the dark places we sometimes find ourselves in. What Morgan shares, what she overcome and how she delivers it will delight and inspire you. I say it every week, but honestly, this is a podcast you do not want to miss.Morgan can be contacted through www.morganbeard.coachHer music instagram account is muuniemusicI want to thank the team at BestBeing for sponsoring this podcast. they can be found at www.bestbeing.com .My website is www.andrewjobling.com.au

He has a tattoo which represents, 'remember death, live forever.'

His engineering background combined with his passion for empowering children with his books, drawing and school visits has seen him go on to write more than 84 books and sell over 2,300,000 of them all around the world. He has had seven of his books hit top-ten on the NY Times bestseller list. His astronomical success has come through vision, expectancy, goal setting and positive action. This is an incredibly powerful, energising and inspiring conversation in which Adam offers some powerful and simple strategies that you can apply today to start living your own best life. His message is clear and it is profound, and that is, you are only alive for a finite period of time, so don't waste it doing things that you don't love.

Ep 35You're here now, what are you going to do?
Deborah Stathis was a normal, happy and optimistic 19-year-old, when the car she was driving hit a slippery part of the highway, slid out of control and wrapped itself around a telegraph pole, crushing her on the inside. There were no airbags in the car, so Deb sustained life-altering injuries to her face, her eyes and her brain. Medical professionals stated that she would never be the same and would be affected, physically and mentally, for the rest of her life. Deb did not accept that diagnosis.The definining moment came for Deb whilst alone in her room in the rehab centre. She decided to look at the thing she had been protected from for many weeks... her face. She looked at the devastating injuries, she cried and she said to herself, "You're here now, what are you going to do?" What she did will amaze and inspire you as she went on to transform and reconstruct her face, her body and her life.Deborah has multiple qualifications in Cognitive Behavioral Coaching practices, Management and Training and Assessment.
