When I was young, one of our family friends introduced me to “transformers.” We’d go to flea markets in California and find transformers that people were getting rid of, and the collect them. I built a decent stash of Decepticons and Autobots – I still have a couple… The old versions of these were pretty...

“Can you teach me to do a handstand?” I used to hear this a lot as a gym owner. It’s an interesting one question – as it’s not actually clear what they mean. See we can come at this question from two angles. The first is technical – what program do I need, how do...

From 1965-1995, and in 2015, the Grateful Dead played 2224 concerts. In one year, they got up to 138 concerts. This is an average of 46 concerts per year. They started in a Pizza parlour, and in 1973 played to over 600,000 people in a concert. It’s estimated that their revenue through the 90’s was...

When I lived on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, we’d often spend up to an hour driving around checking the surf. It was ridiculous at times. There were so many places to look, we’d often get caught up in the search. Driving from one end of the strip to the other. Fear of a missed opportunity elsewhere...

We watch, listen, read, and mirror. We listen to the guide, we practice. The guide is relevant. Whoever is lucky...

A one to one connection is nice. A direct message, a deep dive conversation. These are powerful, and often the only way we can create a certain environment. Often though, it’s more powerful to have that same conversation on an open platform. This allows the same exchange to bring value directly to the group. Almost...

Imagine jumping in the Tesla P100D. It’ll do 0-100km in around 2.5 seconds. The high speed rail network in China is designed to hurtle passengers along up to 250km/hr. It’s one thing to experience moving quickly. It’s another to try and transform quickly. When we look at the project you’re creating, your movement journey, the...

Yesterday I sat with Sina King, #22 most influential burlesque dancer in the world. We landed on the topic of developing confidence – it’s certainly critical in her work and it’s also really powerful for anyone trying to create change in their work or business. Whether someone is walking onto a stage to dance, or...
