The human story is what really matters.

It’s the realness of understanding another human being. Their experiences. Their emotions. The way they interpreted what happened to them.

Because two people can experience exactly the same thing and walk away with completely different stories.

In my opinion, that is what makes people so interesting.

Creativity, to me, is probably the purest expression of that. It’s taking something that exists inside your consciousness and somehow getting it out into the world so that another person can experience a small part of it. The only reason that resonates, is because we can all relate to the human condition.

A thought. An emotion. An experience. An idea and maybe, if you’re that way inclined, there’s something divine about that too.

We experience the world, we give meaning to it, and then we create something from that experience.

You won’t get that from a robot bro. Long live the creative arts.

There are professions in this world that are the cornerstones of society. I believe forensic pathologists form one of those cornerstones.

Giving a voice to someone who no longer has one.
Seeking truth indiscriminately.
Advising on and establishing trends or patterns that lead to changes in health policy that you and I don’t even notice.

My hat is off. Thank you.

In my conversation with Ryan Blumenthal I was struck by the unexpected circumstances in which he would be called out to a death scene. It’s fascinating the lengths that the living will go to, to look after the dead.

PS. I can also highly recommend his new book Trace.

We are more likely to implode than explode 🤯.

BIG time takeaway from my conversation with Ryan Blumenthal . After 13 000+ autopsies Ryan has a unique perspective on life. A lot of potential damage starts with the choices we make:

~ what we consume
~ who we spend time with
~ what we keep ignoring

The traces we leave behind and that are left on us, inevitably become ours stories.

What’s one habit you know that is affecting you more than you care to admit?

How would you view the world after seeing over 13 000 dead bodies? Would you believe in destiny? Would you turn to God? How would you view your fellow man? How would it change the way you treat people?

Ryan Blumenthal is up on episode 102 of the show.

All this and more when the episode drops Monday 26 October on all major platforms.

One of the biggest takeaways from my conversation with Dr. Wendy Mahoney was the necessity to prioritise uniqueness before belonging. I find it fascinating how this is directly linked to innovation within a broader business context.

We are hard wired to have a sense of belonging, yet this cannot take place until we truly embrace our individual uniqueness.

Upon reflection on this episode, I’m really focusing on digging deeper into finding out who I am. What is my identity? What is linked to my identity and why? Are there parts of me that need to be acknowledged and released? Not saying I have all the answers but sometimes it’s more about asking the right questions. Big thanks to Dr. Wendy Mahoney for being on the show. 🙏

Are you moving towards something, or just running away from something?
A lot of “ambition” is really validation in disguise.

Dr. Wendy Mahoney spoke about valuing your uniqueness before chasing belonging. This was a major reflection point for me in the days after recording. Maybe the real work isn’t pushing harder.
Maybe it’s getting still enough to hear what’s actually driving you.

If you’re the ambitious type and struggle to switch off, this episode is for you. Episodes drops Monday 12 October on all major podcast platforms.

1. A portion of self evolution is grief. Grieving for parts of the self you need to leave behind.
2. We take for granted the implementation and necessity for record keeping of our own existence.
3. Just like different plants thrive in different seasons, so should different parts of you thrive in different conditions.
4. Yoshuku- The Japanese practice of combining our wishes with a prayer of appreciation and an act of celebration.
5. Your brain is wired to choose familiar pain over unfamiliar success.
6. You don’t need permission to protect a life you are responsible for.
7. We share stories because it will either change the way you see your life; or remind you that you’re not alone.

1. The deepest stories represent the most absolute characterizations.
2. Anxiety is the habit of forecasting the worst possible outcome with scarce evidence to substantiate that claim.
3. Context is a stronger predictor of behaviour than character.
4. Perception = Believing is seeing.
5. If you don’t define success for you, you will play by the definition of others.
6. Simultaneous social density and social isolation = mental illness.
7. Yūgen- A Japanese term used to describe something so profound it’s beyond expression.
