Both on and off stage. You may be aware of his illustrious career in music and entertainment spanning four decades. Although he may be the iconic frontman who is instantly recognisable and bears the most criticism, he does not consider himself the leader, but a member who knows his place in the group. But behind that on stage persona is a highly introspective, curious and intelligent individual, who champions the power of noticing, which is reflected in his music and art. Through fiction books, putting pen to paper, and noticing the small things, Tim has found survival and the sparks of creativity which have kept him creating for a lifetime.

“You are a conversation away from changing your life.” More than philosophy, but a core purpose in Damon Klotz’s teaching and life.The former Work Culture Evangelist at Culture Amp decided to not small and take the leap by sitting front row during the technology boom in Silicon Valley. Klotz has spent his career at the intersection of people and technology, and preaches that true culture is not defined by mission statement, but by the behaviours we witness accept, and promote. Whether we hold a leadership title or not, for most of us, all that is required is the courage to engage in conversation. What does Two Am I mean to you?

With a career spanning almost three decades, across six countries, with five Olympic medals from five separate Olympic journeys, Lauren Jackson has well and truly earned her title as ‘the GOAT.’ But her basketball career is merely a thread that makes up the fabric of Lauren Jackson. A country girl at heart, with a deep connection to family, which shaped her mental fortitude to survive an isolating career with a lack of mental health support.

The true difference between leaders and managers comes down to ethics. Managers may make the ‘right’ choice, or the popular choice. Leaders push past standard customs and practices, and will follow their moral code to make decisions. Dr Simon Longstaff, Executive Director of The Ethics Centre, has structured his life around philosophy and ethics, after it was modelled to him by his mother when he was just a child, and continued during his early career on Groote Eylandt. True leadership is not about living and modelling a perfect ethical life, there is no such thing, but making conscious choices that align with core values, and sometimes that takes enormous moral courage.Links from the episode: The Ethics Centre Common SenseThe Rights of Man Perfect Days What does Two Am I mean to you?

Childhood was full of adventure,it never had to be sought out or actively practiced, it happened daily, without thought or much effort, but as we grow the art of adventure begins to shrink.   Beau Miles wanted to keep the magic of childhood and adventure in his everyday, and has managed to carve out a life as a professional adventurer, combining his work as a filmmaker and his love of play.   Beau believes that adventuring is a personal challenge, and requires us to step out of our comfort zone to embark on an adventure, but they don’t have to be big or complex to be worthwhile.   Although Beau’s adventures have consisted of running a marathon in a hotel, and running abandoned railway lines, and has led to him amassing a global audience on Youtube, he will inspire you to inject more play, curiosity and adventure into your own life.   More from Beau:https://www.youtube.com/@BeauMiles   The Backyard Adventurer by Beau Miles book   Links from this episode:The Day My Hat Died videoA Mile an Hour video Find TWO AM I on social media here: TWO AM I YouTube TWO AM I Instagram  TWO AM I Tik Tok TWO AM I LinkedIn TWO AM I LinktreeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Do you have space in your life? Not time, but space.

We watched with bated breath, as Ariarne Titmus touched the wall ahead of Katie Ledecky - considered by some to be the greatest female swimmer of all time, but it was far from luck on the day that cemented Ariarne’s name in the history books.    From early on in her life, Arnie had learnt the relationship between hard work and success, a value instilled by her parents that helped forge her path to becoming one of Australia's greatest swimmers.   Paired with her coach, Dean Boxall, their unique relationship built on brutal honesty, shared standards, and unwavering trust, has been the ‘key’ in unlocking the fierce competitor. Beyond the glory is humility, a love for family, and a passion which extends past chasing the black line.    Now on a hiatus from swimming, she shares what’s next for her, and if she will be repping the green and gold in LA in 2028.Keep up to date with Ariarne:Ariarne Titmus Instagram   Ariarne’s 400m gold medal win at the Tokyo Olympics Find TWO AM I on social media here: TWO AM I YouTube TWO AM I Instagram  TWO AM I Tik Tok TWO AM I LinkedIn TWO AM I LinktreeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  ‘Generous, patient and tenacious’ are the three words Des Flanagan says sum him up and always have. Des is a boy from Beechworth in regional Victoria, who found himself performing in the Moulin Rouge kicking a leg, singing some of the greatest love songs ever written and having the time of his life.

His love for the stage began with little concerts with his siblings curated for their parents, until Des realised that family fun was to become his destiny. What followed was years of study at the prestigious Victorian College of the Arts, beginning his career in musical theatre.
