Best of 2021: Military Mindset and Mental Health

Send us a text


I've had some amazing conversations with people who inspire me
and bring value to my life during the course of this podcast. In
these "Best Of" editions, I'm bringing those conversations back
to life for your listening pleasure.

The Swiss 8 team of Adrian Sutter and Anthony Meixner start the
conversation with the charity's vision for what they wanted to
achieve in the coming years.
Swiss 8 is a proactive mental health model designed to provide
the tools required to deliver high-quality content around their 8
pillars of health and wellness, to allow you to be "Better At
Life."

Simon Moloney then picks up the conversation with his take on
what occurred in July 2013 when he was shot in the throat by a
Taliban sharp-shooter, and goes on to describe the events that
took place which saw him awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross
by Her Majesty The Queen.

Wes Masters and I then discuss these same events from his
perspective, with him being the medic on the ground that covered
hundreds of metres of dangerous terrain to come to the aid of Si,
with his actions being recognised with Wes being awarded the
Military Cross by Her Majesty The Queen.

Next up, Paul Minter talks to me about his experience dealing
with the aftermath of numerous combat deployments to Afghanistan,
including suicidal thoughts, and crippling PTSD, anxiety, and
depression. We discuss the tools and strategies he used to start
managing his mind, which led to him starting the mental health
charity, Head-Up Charity in the UK.

Shaun Kober is a Mindset & Performance Specialist, with a
unique skillset forged in the trenches, through the various
stages of life.

"I shouldn’t be in the position I am right now."


The odds were stacked against me:


Poor family on welfare, eldest of 6 kids, parents didn’t work,
abusive step-dad, no electricity or running water for a 6 years
period of my life


Caught up with the wrong crowd, stealing, drugs, skipping
school


At 14 years old, I sat on a bus for 3 days with $50 in my
pocket, to travel to the next State over West, to begin a new
life in the workforce - 2000

14 - 20: I grew up and learned how to become a man through work
and rugby
20 - 26: I lived, trained and fought as a professional soldier,
at a high level
26 - 32: I became a personal trainer, after failing in my pursuit
to become a firefighter
32 - 38: I worked with, and won world titles with some of the
best athletes on the planet, as their strength and conditioning
coach
38+: The next evolution begins
