When Productivity Stops Meaning Anything

Energy Is Your Most Valuable Asset

Most people manage their calendar, but very few manage their energy. In this clip from the Chris Voss Show, I share why I see energy like a bank account and how intentional deposits can transform your performance, health, and leadership. Learn why doing more of your genius work, protecting your recovery, and being mindful of energy withdrawals can help you create sustainable success. Key takeaway: Don't just manage your time. Manage the energy that powers everything you do.

What If We Taught Leadership Before We Needed It?

This week I had the opportunity to spend time with a group of Navy Cadets, and I left feeling incredibly hopeful about the future. What struck me wasn’t their uniforms or ranks. It was their confidence, communication skills, sense of belonging, and willingness to step outside their comfort zones. Programs like cadets, team sports, and other youth leadership initiatives don’t just create future leaders. They help young people develop identity, purpose, resilience, support systems, and the confidence to use their voice. If we’re developing a society of people who know who they are, where they belong, what they stand for, and how to communicate and contribute, who wouldn’t want more of that?

Design the Life You Started the Business For

Many business owners build successful businesses, only to find themselves trapped inside them. In this clip from The Art and Science of Physio, I share the identity shifts I made to move from clinician to owner, and from owner to leader. We explore the importance of designing your ideal role, committing fully to what matters most, and creating space for both impact and adventure. Whether it's training for a ride across the Andes or building a speaking career, nothing changes until you intentionally make room for it. The biggest shift? Stop living in the weeds of the business and start building the life and legacy you set out to create.

The Urgency Trap- Why busy leaders stay stuck

It's easy to fill your day with activity and still make very little progress. Many leaders spend their time solving urgent problems, attending unnecessary meetings, and putting out fires that probably shouldn't have existed in the first place. The result? Exhaustion without momentum. In this conversation with Culture of One founder Shane Gunaratnam, I explore why high performers often get trapped in low-leverage work, the importance of decision-making frameworks, and how shifting your focus back to purpose, choice, and impact can completely change the way you lead. We also dive into DISC, behavioural choice, and why reflecting on the bigger vision matters far more than getting caught up in the frustrations of day-to-day operations.

Grit Over Resilience: Choosing What's on the Other Side of Hard

In this episode, I share why I prefer the word grit to resilience and how it differs from simply bouncing back from challenges. Drawing from a recent conversation on Protocol Daily, I explore why so much of what we want in life, leadership, and business sits on the other side of discomfort, effort, and uncertainty. The question isn't whether life will be hard. The question is whether we're willing to choose the hard that leads us toward the future we want. I’m running a rare public workshop for women! The Purpose Compass. Online & in Person. 30 May, 2-4pm AEST (recording & workbook will be sent to all who register to attend online).
