New Zealand podcasts

People who have achieved the extraordinary in life, who think outside the square and who have insights to share and gems of wisdom to improve the life of listeners. It’s also a positive impact show, spreading good positive information out into the world. For me it’s a great way to get the people I admire most on my show so I can pick their brains and learn from the best. From Business people, to elite athletes, to scientists, Managers, social change innovators and more.
It’s still a work in progress but I have been lucky enough to have some incredible guests from world record holders Pat Farmer and Ultra marathon man Dean Karnazes to Sir John Kirwan to Phillip Balmer COO of Middlemore hospital to Sports scientists, nutritionists, authors and more.
