  • How Elaine Transformed Her Life Through the Invictus Games and Warrior Games

    How Elaine Transformed Her Life Through the Invictus Games and Warrior Games
    Jan 8 2026
    In this episode, Joe engages in a heartfelt conversation with Elaine Hanson, who shares her extraordinary journey from a childhood shaped by fostering to a career in the military and beyond. Elaine reflects on her upbringing, the challenges of being a foster sibling, and the lessons learned about compassion and resilience. She recounts her military experience, including her time in the Women's Royal Army Corps and the abrupt end to her service due to a serious injury. KEY TAKEAWAYS The journey highlights the importance of resilience in overcoming personal and professional challenges, such as injuries and relationship issues. The ability to view setbacks as opportunities for growth is emphasised. Growing up in a foster care environment provided valuable lessons about compassion and understanding the complexities of childhood trauma, shaping a perspective that recognises the struggles of others. The transition from civilian life to military service and back again illustrates the significance of adaptability. Experiences in the military, including basic training and various roles, contributed to personal development and a sense of purpose. The struggle with physical and mental health issues, including cauda equina syndrome and functional neurological disorder, underscores the importance of seeking help and understanding one's health conditions over time. Participation in programs like Battle Back and Invictus Games demonstrates how sports can play a crucial role in recovery and rehabilitation, fostering community, resilience, and personal achievement. BEST MOMENTS "I was kind of in a bit of shock because at the time my brother wasn't born. I had my mum and dad to myself for six years." "I think it taught me a really good lesson. Not all kids have an idyllic childhood. Children have trauma, and it's more common than you could ever think of." "What was going on in your life then? It must have been horrific." "I didn't know what to do. I was upset about it. I pleaded with them to keep me in, but at that time they didn't do that." "I consider it as a challenge. I think you've got to be resilient and look at things outside the box."

  • New Years Day 2026

    New Years Day 2026
    Jan 1 2026
    To kick off the New Year, Joe is reflecting on the transformative power of choice and its impact on personal growth and success. Building on insights from the previous episode, takes a look at the importance of taking responsibility for one's life and decisions, emphasising that everything we experience is a result of our choices. KEY TAKEAWAYS Every aspect of your life is a result of choices you make, whether consciously or unconsciously. Recognising this empowers you to take responsibility for your circumstances and outcomes. Taking a pause to check your direction and assess your situation is crucial. This reflection allows you to realign your goals and make informed decisions rather than rushing into actions that may lead you astray. The story you tell about your experiences shapes your perspective. Two people can face the same challenges but interpret them differently - one may see failure while the other sees an opportunity for growth. Progress is made through consistent, small choices rather than giant leaps. Each small step contributes to creating a path forward, emphasising the importance of daily actions in achieving long-term goals. Taking ownership of your actions and decisions is essential for personal development. By carrying your own "backpack" of responsibilities, you can move forward more freely and effectively towards your aspirations. BEST MOMENTS "Everything that is going on in your lives is a choice. And when that really sinks in, your life changes." "The conscious mind is what we think with. The unconscious mind, on the other hand, has no ability to think whatsoever. It just accepts what you tell it." "You must raise your consciousness to the frequency you need to achieve it." "Every meaningful journey begins the same way. It doesn't begin with clarity, and it doesn't begin with confidence." "Responsibility is carrying your own backpack, and blame isn't asking someone else to carry your backpack."

  • Joe's Christmas Special 2025

    Joe's Christmas Special 2025
    Dec 25 2025
    As Christmas Day arrives, Joe reflects on the themes of belief, focus, and empowerment, encouraging listeners to reset their mindset for the year ahead. Drawing from personal experiences, including a life-changing injury, Joe emphasises the importance of accountability and the power of belief structures in shaping our lives. KEY TAKEAWAYS Having someone to hold you accountable can provide the necessary prompts and support to keep you focused and committed to your goals, especially during times of reflection like Christmas. Your beliefs significantly influence your behaviour, which in turn affects your outcomes and ultimately shapes your life. It's essential to examine and challenge any limiting beliefs you may have outgrown. True focus is about doing less and removing distractions. Identifying and prioritising what truly matters in your life can lead to greater clarity and direction. Empowerment involves taking ownership of your choices and beliefs, leading to internal authority. Unlike motivation, which can be fleeting, empowerment is about consistent action and self-trust. This simple four-step process - acknowledge, release, realign, and act - can help you reset your mindset and prepare for the year ahead, allowing you to let go of what holds you back and embrace who you want to become. BEST MOMENTS "When you improvise, adapt, and overcome, things get so much better." "It's not who you think you are that's holding you back. It's who you think you're not." "Clarity without consistency just becomes wishful thinking." "Empowerment sounds like this: I decide what I'm doing next. I trust myself." "Let today be the moment you acknowledge it."
