Stuff That Matters Now

Finn and I sat down for a good long yarn - the first of two. I'm going to check in with him in a year from now, and see how he's getting on with this great idea he's got. Have a listen for the details... This podcast is brought to your ears with the support of

I sat down for a yarn with Anna Blackwell. Her passion for nursing, and in particular nursing in the Aged Care Sector, shines through. Nursing will touch all of us, at one point or another in our lives, and this is one conversation you don't want to miss. This podcast is brought to your ears with the support of

I really wasn't sure what we were going to focus on for this poddy - however I needn't have worried. Dyslexia was an obvious start to the conversation, and we went from there...

I sat down for a chat with Catherine van der Meulen, from Entrepreneurial Women With Purpose (among many other things). Originally from Sydney, Catherine came from a background working in the family business in the fast fashion industry, and now works with young women in agriculture. She co-founded 'Girls who Grow' in Aotearoa NZ, and this was always going to be a fun conversation.

I sat down with Andrew Melville, for an epic chat. This is the story of his journey, from his early years working as a radio DJ, to his transformation into a master weaver of stories, via an OE where something big happened to evolve this young fella into something rather different.

This month, I spoke to Chris Gallavin. From mechanic's lackey to a professorship in law with a PhD under his belt, and he's a poet to boot - hell this has gotta be boring. Stand by for a bloody good yarn...

From corporate native to understanding energy between people and how it impacts our lives. I assure you, you will not have heard a view point like Keith Mason's before. Enter, "the Purple Guy"...

I knew this was always going to be a fascinating deep dive into this extraordinary man's life, and so it was.  From being born into a middle class family in the Philippines, to the glitz of Wall Street, and what impact that has on a person.  An Edmund Hillary Fellow, with a thirst for getting on with life, BeeWee (as he is affectionately called) is a unique character from whom we can all learn, listening to his story.

Well I did it - got the courage to sit down with Viv Conway from Girls Get Off, and talk about women asking for what they want.  Co-Founder Viv brings a wonderful energy to the topic of taking over the world one orgasm at a time. Was lots of fun, and appreciated just how open and easy Viv is to talk to about sexual pleasure. Hope you enjoy it, as much as I did.

This was a very poignant podcast. A few years back, it was Alex Hannant’s idea that I start doing a podcast, and today it was his idea that he interview me. So we sat down on a Sunday morning over a coffee, and focussed on my journey and where Collective Intelligence is at right now, and where it's heading.  Alex, thank you for this and so many other ways you have supported me and the ecosystem with that wonderful intellect and humour.  I hope you enjoy the tables being turned in this poddy.

I thought this was going to be a tech conversation about AI. I thought that's what I was here to learn about. Well, I did learn about that - but I also got a lesson in philosophy as well. Philosophy!! What the hell does philosophy have to do with AI? Lots as it happens - have a listen...

It’s always a privilege to sit down with Rod Oram and unlock his repertoire of knowledge. What was fascinating for me this year was just how reflective Rod was in this podcast. To me it is an indicator of the complex times we live in. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

From clinical psychology to the world of social impact, doing everything from competing in Iron Man events, to making cheese from nuts - welcome to the world of Lisa Markwick, one of our longstanding facilitators at Collective Intelligence.

This podcast interview was for selfish reasons – to learn more about the world of decentralised autonomous organisations from someone who has actually worked in this system, which is a very rare experience indeed. Thoroughly enjoyed my learning time with Ants and hope to hang out with him more often in the future. This podcast is brought to your ears with the support of

It’s amazing how our personal journeys shape what we do in life, once we have shaken off what we think we are supposed to do. Sasha Lockley from Money Sweet Spot sat down with Harv to discuss how she got from being a very average Accountant, to finding her passion for creating new financial outcomes for people in strife with debt.

Taking the complex Sustainable Development Goals set down by the United Nations, and turning them into attainable actions for all of us, is no easy thing. However, nearing completion of her Masters on just that, it was too good an opportunity not to sit down with Toni and learn from her deep knowledge. And learn I did.
