Here is the my Summer Project for the ManCave!

I sent a video out that most of you have probably seen (if not I would recommend watching that before this one) asking for young blokes like myself to send me a video entry answering the questions of!

What do we feel misunderstood about?

What type of person do we want to be in our community?

What is holding us back from reaching our goals in 2022!

Thank you to the 6 people that entered and submitted a video, I am very proud of you guys stepping outside of your comfort zones to be vulnerable and to be apart of this project and journey with me!

This video provides a great insight into the minds of young blokes of todays generation and dives deeper into what might be going on for them and what we can do to be better people or men in our communities, sporting clubs, families etc!

Thanks again to Luke, Will, Jacob, Troyden, Owen and Jimmy for taking part in the project with me! You guys are awesome!

While watching feel free to comment on your own answers to the questions about! Let’s start a conversation!

Hope you guys enjoy watching this as much as I enjoyed making it!

How to participant in the project! 😊

Here is everything you need to know.

Thanks again legends 😊

Hey boys, I need your help!

Head over to my igtv video for the full explanation and how to be apart😊

I am partaking in a Man Cave project were I have to interview guys on the question "what do you feel misunderstood about"

What I will need from you fellas is, a horizontal video with your name, age and what you feel misunderstood about! Also answering the questions of 'what type of man do you want to be in your community?' and 'what may be holding you back from your goals and dreams in this new year?'

Once completed if you could send it to my email in my bio and I will make a video with all your collated videos. Please let me know if this doesn't work and we can try sort out another option.

The project is due on the 1st of Feb so if you could get your videos in by the 30th that would be fantastic! It doesn't have to be very long and won't take you much time 😊

Ladies, don't worry your turn will come with this one!

Thank you for all your ongoing support during the last 6 months 😊

Have a listen to the video on the next slide for some more info.

Thanks legends 😊

JUST START!

Here is new guest answering the question about what advice he would give to someone wanting to go into the music industry.

Johnie provided loads of context in this little snippet of our episode.

Sometimes you just have to start, don't think about it just do it. Because the longer you wait the harder it is to start.

Procrastination is one of the barriers to people not wanting to chase there dreams. Don't wait, start that YouTube channel or post that tiktok, ask your crush out or go play that game.

Don't let the opinions of other effect what you want to do with your life.

Get out there and chase your dreams and goals in 2022. But don't way for tomorrow or next week or a certain date. START NOW, RIGHT THIS SECOND.

Thanks again to Johnie for coming on the podcast for an interview!

You shouldn't be trying to change yourself and your values for anyone else.

What is something you wish younger you knew that you know now?

This questions was asked to and in episode 4 of the podcast. Have a listen to what they had to say.

I like this question because it gives the listeners an insight into what they might have done differently in there journeys or what they wish they new back then.

Something I personally wish I new in the past would be that I shouldn't be afraid to be my authentic self and shouldn't be afraid of others opinions of me.

How do you deal with stress?

This is how AFL draftees Jye Amiss and Jimmy Tunstill prepare for game day and ease their nerves.

Playing high level football can be very stressful and is important to have a plan in place to be able to calm yourself down and ease the nerves before taking to the field on game day.

When I was running I used to get very nervous and would result to listening to music and practicing my breathing techniques.

Episode 4 with these lads is out now on Spotify. The link is in my bio! ⬆️⬆️

Thanks again and for jumping on for a chat!

You have bagged yourselves some beauties!

Western Derby Lunch 2021

On August 19th I had the chance to speak infront of a large crowd of people at the RAC arena to support and raise funds for youth mental health! I am super grateful for the opportunity! It helped me meet new people, develop my public speaking skills further and raise money and awareness for Zero2Hero! A organisation I am very grateful to be apart of!

22/08/2021

Last week I attended a Good Blokes Co, men's weekend!

This event was created by the great Mike Dyson to teach a bunch of good blokes how to run a men's gathering, fire circle and how to be able to facilitate effectively on your own camps!

With the help of Mike and the other blokes on the camp I learn how to speak with gravity, how to hold the space for others, how to run an effective fire circle, how to run games and most important I learnt different ways to help try and connect with men on a deeper level!

It was here just after this photo was taken were I had the chat to Mike about potentially doing a podcast! This is were the vision grew into what it is today! I can't believe how much I have accomplished in such little time!

Please check out Mike and Good Blokes Co and check out some of there men's retreat, father son camps and mother son camps or even a camp like this one I have been on! You won't regret it!
