This is a special episode for me.
A while ago I had an idea to sit down with my 95 year-old Vecamam (Latvian for "Grandmother") and have her tell me her life story, and recently, was lucky enough to be able to do so.
I knew she had a pretty interesting upbringing but had no idea on the particulars.
Growing up in Latvia, I was aware she escaped the clutches of WW2, managed to flee to New Zealand before settling in Australia, but like most grandchildren, had no clue of what she had really lived through.
This is raw, emotional and confronting, but at the same time, filled me with an immense sense of gratitude and appreciation for the life we get to live.
Enjoy.

Damon Lowery is probably known to most of us as a media personality within the NBL on ESPN.
He has an incredible professional career under his belt with almost 200 NBL games, a championship with the Wollongong Hawks and a highlight reel that puts most to shame.
Today, he is the head coach of the Gangurrus, Australia's 3X3 Women's team who punched their ticket to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games earlier this year.
You'd be forgiven for thinking this episode is focused on his sporting career. While we spend time touching on the highlights, the majority of this conversation is based around mindset.
Damon has changed his life through "The Way of The Seal." Finding himself in a slump, he dived headfirst into discovering how some of the most elite operators the world take care of their business; The Navy Seals.
We discuss how he built his "Mission Mindset", how he approaches challenges and how this mindset shift has spread to how he lives in the many different roles he has today. From a father and a husband, to a national coach and an athlete, Damon's approach to life is incredibly honest, motivating and something that is truly inspiring.
Get the notepad out, there's plenty of gold in this one.

We've all gone through rough patches in life. Work, relationships, family... Whatever it is, life has a funny way of getting in our head and weighing us down from time to time.
What do you do to pull yourself out of those slumps? And what do you do if you don't realise just how big of a slump you're in?
Today I sit down with Jeremy Diamond, a key cog of The Power In You Project (PIYP) and Founder of Paradise Personal Improvement.
Jeremy and I go quite a way back together. We've both done some pretty tough things together but our proudest achievement is what we've managed to create in the self improvement and mental health space. As you'll hear, we're still unsure on what to call it but our "workshops" involve recognising life circumstances and committing to making positive change.
Today we discuss the power that everyone has within (even if they haven't recognised it yet), how to break seemingly massive problems into bite sized solutions and how there is always beauty in the struggle.
Along with that, we dissect our workshops that we run together, how children's books can often hold some of the greatest life lessons we'll ever learn, the power of genuine conversations and the strength of vulnerability.
A conversation full of wisdom, motivation and tips to overcome the struggles found in daily life, Jezza's no-nonsense approach to life is refreshing and inspiring.
We do discuss some pretty sensitive issues so if you, or someone you know, may feel affected or overwhelmed, please reach out to Lifeline on 13 11 14 or lifeline.org.au

John Brown is a 2nd Degree Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu as well as a 2nd Degree Black Belt in Shootfighting. He owns and operates his own MMA school (Prevail MMA) and has worked closely with the Australian Defence Force Academy (ADFA) to deliver specific Adrenaline Stress Response Training.
Today we dive deep into how a devastating personal tragedy led him through the doors of Red Cat Academy and into his own Jiu Jitsu journey, how he used the martial art as a coping mechanism and how he continues to manage the waves of grief that arise today.
Along with that, we explore his work with ADFA, how his own personal experiences sparked a fascination with the psychological and physical responses to fear, and how embracing and learning to be comfortable with that fear is a key to overcoming.

On December 15, 2023 at 9:00am, Charlie Perks and I embarked on one of the most physically and mentally demanding challenges either of us had ever done.
A circuit consisting of a 2km Ride, 1km Row, 1km Ski and a 1km Run on repeat for 24 hours straight.
Along with completing 110km on the bike, and 55km on the Row, Ski and Run respectively, we managed to raise just over $6000 for Lifeline Australia.
Today, we discuss how the idea came about, different coping strategies we used during the day (and night) and how important a good support crew is to success.
We do discuss some sensitive topics so if this raises anything for you, please reach out to Lifeline on 13 11 14 or lifeline.org.au or to Perksy or myself on Instagram (@charlie.perks @krisblicavs_)

Today's guest is good friend of mine, Matt Johns.
Born and raised in Geelong, Johnsy is now currently playing basketball for the Brisbane Bullets in the NBL.
In today's conversation we discuss Matt's background and how he found himself in love with the game of basketball from a very early age, his transition through the ranks of junior hoops, into the Basketball Australia Centre of Excellence, into the US College system before heading back home into the NBL.
We also dive deep into Johnsy's battles with his own mental health, how important his support networks were in helping him navigate the toughest situation he's ever faced, and how one text message saved his life.
Johnsy is a brilliant advocate for men's mental health, and is always pushing for other men to share their stories as he knows the power that can come with it.

A professional basketball player, she has more than 200 WNBL games, 2 championships and numerous national commitments under her belt, and has represented the Opals at the highest level, the Olympic Games, in Tokyo in 2021.
This isn't your usual chat around sports performance. While we touch on the physical aspect, Sara and I spend the majority of the conversation in the mental space.

A brilliant listen for aspiring athletes, students, professionals and anyone who feels like their mental state can get on top of them, Sara gives a brilliant insight into how she approaches the many challenges she faces as an athlete, and gives some tips and tricks she's picked up over the years.

Amanda Paschal is a professional basketball player currently representing Wyndham Basketball Association in BigV's Championship Women's Division. Averaging close to a triple double, AP is leading the way in the MVP race this season. Originally from Brooklyn, NY and growing up in Chipley, Florida, AP found herself staring down the barrel of a lifetime of doing nothing but getting up to no good. It was then where the lightbulb went off, and her and her close knit group of friends committed to holding each other accountable and using basketball as a means of escaping all the negativity that Chipley would inevitably bring.
Today, we look at how AP ended up getting out of Chipley, her college career where she spent 2 years in JuCo followed by 2 years at Kentucky, one of the powerhouses of collegiate basketball, before ending up at Wyndham at the start of 2022. We discuss how AP has shifted her approach to basketball and leadership over the years, and how her mindset has changed and allowed her to consistently perform at her best.
A brilliant discussion for those looking to make basketball a career, break into the US College system or even looking to tweak their mindset, AP gives plenty of insight into how she is able to consistently perform at a high level and how mastering the mental game has proven to be the key to her success.

Jack McVeigh is a Small Forward for the Tasmania JackJumpers in the NBL. For those that have watched him play, he's been a beacon of energy, passion and enjoyment on the floor. But for Jack, basketball hasn't always been fun. Dealing with the pressure to perform, from his NCAA career at Nebraska to his Rookie season with the Adelaide 36ers, and now with the Tasmania JackJumpers, Jack's life off the floor had been dictated by his performance on it.
It was when he made a distinct effort to shift his mindset, that everything changed.
Today, we discuss Jack's background and how the pressure he put on himself to perform greatly affected his enjoyment of the game. We touch on how important good team culture is, and how the JackJumpers almost unintentionally formed one of the most tight-knit teams in the league.
We explore the life of a professional athlete, the importance of a positive mindset, and how the drive to keep learning can shift your entire perspective on life.

In what proves to be an amazing follow up to last week's episode with Mark Blicavs, today I sit down with Geelong Cats Legend, Matthew Scarlett.
Scarlo played 284 games in the hoops, a 6-time All-Australian, triple premiership player and AFL Hall of Fame Inductee. Once retired, he returned to the Cats in a coaching role, having great success in building one of the most formidable defences in the AFL. Given his CV, you could forgive him for being a little arrogant, but Scarlo is anything but. As humble as they come, he prides himself on living in the moment and passing along his wisdom and the life lessons he has learned over his stellar career to those fortunate enough to be guided by him.
Currently coaching Football at Barwon Heads and within the Western Heights College AFL Program, there's no shortage of people lining up to pick his brains.
Today, we go into the turning point within the Geelong Football Club and how their famous, team first culture was established, we discuss the importance of trust, belief and communication when building high performing teams and how self reflection is a crucial aspect when it comes to coaching.
The really cool thing to me is, last week hearing Mark's view on the Cats culture from a player's perspective, and this week hearing how it was created from a key part of the building process. The two conversations give an incredible insight into how truly special of a place that the Geelong Football Club is.
A true legend of the game, Scarlo will go down as one of the best to ever do it.
Keep chasing...

Currently, he is a key member of the Geelong Cats Football Club, has played over 200 games a two-time winner of the Carji Greeves medal for the Club Best and Fairest and played a significant role in Geelong's 2022 AFL Premiership.
In our conversation, we visit Mark's unique back story around how he transitioned from elite athletics to AFL Football, how a freak injury during a running camp at Falls Creek has greatly contributed to his durability throughout his AFL career and explore his approach to continually learning new skills as an AFL footballer.
Along with this, we discuss the famous culture of the Geelong Football Club, how that culture has lead to long term success and why so many players want to get down to Kardinia Park to become part of this amazing club.
A great discussion around learning, culture and the beauty found in making mistakes, Mark provides plenty of insight into the life of an AFL footballer and his constant quest for improvement.

Have you ever been inspired to do something incredible? What was it that inspired you? Did you follow through and complete that feat or did you leave it purely as thought?
Inspiration can come in many forms. For some, it's family and wanting to lead by example. For others, it's the stories of others that kick them into gear. Regardless of the catalyst however, inspiration can lead to some powerful life changes. Matt Daniels' story is no different. And his life changes have indeed been powerful.
Inspired by the story of Andrew Cadigan, Matt has completed some incredible feats of physical and mental resilience, from running Adelaide to Geelong, completing 55 marathons in 55 days to spending 24 hours on a treadmill and completing 535 consecutive half marathons. His ability to explore and push his limits is something to behold.
Today, we explore Matt's background, how he discovered Cad's story, what lead him to breaking world records and clocking up an insane amount of kilometres on his body, raising thousands and thousands of dollars for The Leukaemia Foundation in the process.
An incredible conversation and one that left me wondering what I could possibly achieve, Matt's story is a brilliant listen.

The benefits of movement have been well documented. From improved cardiovascular and musculoskeletal health, to injury prevention and a reduction in the chances of cancer and diabetes, consistent exercise is a vital aspect of living a much longer and happier life. Not just from a physical standpoint either. The effects of good movement on mental and emotional wellbeing are almost, if not more impactful than on our physical health, and we all want to live better.

He rowed competitively, for Australia and found his way into the industry as most do, after rehabilitating his own injuries. I first worked with Sam in 2014 while going through my own injury rehabilitation, and can confidently name him as the reason as to why I became a strength and conditioning coach, and in turn, a reason as to why "Chase Your Greatness" came about.
Sam has penned the book, "Age is an Attitude", providing an exercise guide for older people that outlines what happens to our body as we age, why it happens and what we can do to help counteract the ageing process.

As a society, we naturally romanticise professional sport. The bright lights, big money contracts, game winners and championship celebrations. What's not to love? Professional athletes are seen as celebrities, living the good life being able to travel the world playing a game they love, but what really goes into the life of a full time athlete? And how does it look when the lights go out?
Ryan Broekhoff is well aware of all that the professional athlete lifestyle consists of, spending time playing basketball in the US College system, professionally in Turkey and Russia before reaching every little boy's dream of playing in the NBA, "Rowdy" has experienced plenty more than most. But it has been far from the Hollywood story that most of us assume is played out by these athletes. The constant travel, uncertainty of playing contracts, dealing with injury and adding family stress into the mix provides the perfect setting for anxiety to thrive.
Today, Rowdy and I discuss his background, the escape basketball provided for him growing up and how his decision to seek professional help allowed him to confront the traumas of his childhood and become a better father, husband and teammate. Along with this, we explore what it takes to make it as a professional athlete and how many kids today might not quite understand what is truly required.
My biggest take away from our conversation however, is the importance of speaking up and seeking help. We are not alone in this world and its vital to be aware enough within yourself to understand when the cloud of self doubt, anxiety or depression starts to creep in. And when it does, finding a way to talk about it can help significantly.
Raw, emotional and confronting, Ryan's story is one we should all listen to. A great basketball player, and an even better person, Rowdy's desire to use his story as an opportunity to help others navigate the struggles of life is truly special. I'm grateful to be able to have sat down with him and hope those of you who listen can take plenty of value from it.

Bec and Gary Cole are not like your stereotypical "Father-Daughter" combo. Not only have they represented Australia in their respective sports, Bec with Basketball, and Gary with the Socceroos in Football, but together they have overcome situations which would undoubtedly shake individuals and families to their core.
Throughout her basketball career, Bec has won championships, International tournaments and has been selected in All-Star Teams, and Gary has been involved in elite soccer since the moment his family emigrated to Australia in his teens. Along with being a member of the Socceroos, he played a key part in Melbourne Victory's success throughout the 2000's as a key part of their administration coaching ranks. But Bec and Gary's special bond hasn't been built enjoying each others sporting success. Throughout her career, Bec endured multiple ACL injuries (not to mention the plethora of niggles and setbacks that come along with that), has been cut from national teams and has had to deal with more social media trolls than most, and will be the first to say that having to navigate these experiences has built her into one of the most resilient and hardest working athletes our country has to offer. Gary however, has perhaps overcome one of the biggest challenges one will ever face in life - Cancer.
Raw and emotional, this conversation is an amazing insight into how incredibly special Bec and Gary's bond is, and how being able to lean on those close to us can help us navigate anything life throws at us.

We often look at those who succeed and wonder how they do it. From those who are at the top of their game in the sporting arena to those who have built incredibly successful businesses, we see this and tend to fall victim to comparison. People can use these successes as motivation, as stories to fuel their fire for achievement and wake up the next morning full of drive to succeed. Alternatively, these comparisons can negatively impact people's self esteem, lead them to staying in their comfort zone and looking for ways to keep other people from succeeding themselves. We love to watch and listen to people succeed, but very few are willing to do what is required to be truly great.

From NBA to Soccer to AFL to Music and TV and everything in between, BK is one of the best in the business at what he does.
In today's conversation, we look at how BK almost unintentionally found his way into his work, turning his "side hustle" into his "9-to-5" and why it is so important to understand anyone and everyone you come across in life. We explore the infinite quest for work/life balance and discuss whether it actually exists, and ask the question that even if we eventually find it, do we really want it? BK gives an insight into what makes those outliers in their profession so successful, how his morals and values have shaped his career and how those he works with need to "fit" within those.
BK is incredibly engaging and I learnt plenty being able to chew his ear off for an hour or so. I took plenty from our conversation and am looking forward to being able to share it with you all. You can get in touch with BK via Instagram at @bkaider or @one_sportsent.

Passion can be defined as "an intense desire or enthusiasm for something". It's often a term that gets thrown around when setting goals or contemplating career change, but very few manage to truly find the thing that fuels them each and every day. For me, I still haven't found it. I'd say I'm passionate about lots of different things, but am still searching for that one thing that provides me with the constant drive and motivation to achieve greatness each time I roll out of bed.
Megan Hustwaite has had no such problem. A freelance journalist, she has spent almost 20 years perfecting her craft within all aspects of the media landscape. Working in print media, radio, television, podcasting and hosting events, Megan's passion for her work has lead to her being one of the most recognised and highly regarded media personalities in the Australian sporting scene. But as usual, life hasn't always gone to plan.
Today we explore how Megan's mindset and approach to her career has allowed her to overcome constant challenges, from entering the media world as a 17 year old, to navigating COVID-19 after going out on her own, and bouncing back from a number of devastating low points that life has thrown up. We discuss the relationship shared between the media and athletes, and how taking pride in yourself and your behaviours can lead to life-changing friendships and clarity around the people that you have in your corner.
A lesson in professionalism, resilience and the beauty of being vulnerable, this discussion is full of self reflection, and life lessons that anyone will be able to relate to.
