This episode is brought to you by Swash Clothing and Sugar Life.
Welcome to the overly excited podcast hosted by Jack Watts and Dale
Sidebottom. 2 friends with a passion for life, learning and all
things that get them jumping out of their seats.
Alright, everyone. Welcome back to the podcast episode number 45 of the
overly excited podcast. My name is Dale Sobel, joined by the 1 and
only Jack Lawrence. How are you, big boy? Good, mate. What a beautiful morning. Big
guest, I think. Big guest. 40 5. They say in podcast world
that they save the biggest guest you have for the first 100 for number
45. I've been told that along the way anyway. Now,
Rich, before I introduce you, mate, thank you for coming on the show today. You've
obviously been an AFL superstar. I feel a bit inadequate here. Couple of those
in the room. I was picking the 2 up and kept swans. So I'm a
superstar very likely to do that. Also, and this is the 1 we're
very excited about. You're becoming known as the world's number 1
mindset activation expert for sports teams, coaches, and athletes
around the world. Welcome to the show, Rich Maloney. Great to be here, Dale. Thanks,
Jack. And how's your mind going? Mate, when we see you walk in, the sun's
out in Melbourne. I'll tell you what, and it's episode 45 of
TikTok. We like to start the episode with a little
bit different. Not just how are you, but what gets you excited, Rich? Like, what
gets that blood gurgling excited, jumping out of your seat, running out
of bed in the morning? Well, life itself does these days. So it
has for a while, but honestly, I I have a job where I love what
I do, and I've got hundreds of clients around the world and seeing their
responses on WhatsApp every morning, seeing them transform, change, activate
their lives really lights me up. And then I just go from
there. Rich, how like, obviously playing
footy, this all this, you know, amazing stuff came after footy.
How much did you use this stuff during your career and how much do you
look back and go, shit. I wish I had all this knowledge while I was
playing. I didn't use any of it Because I didn't know it. Yeah.
Oh, I absolutely didn't know it. I was, that kid who was always gonna get
drafted and the real hard pick. You know, up until on the fifteens, which is
about 1 every award there was. And then security got got a
hold of me and, I went to shit. You
got drunk. You got drunk. Peter, you too could have a little bit of
We've got some nice little similarities because I I sort of think the same thing.
It's like, fuck. If I could put my 32 year old, 33 year old brain
in my 18 year old body, it'll be a different story. But, yeah.
I'm just interest like, what what kind of when you went in there, were you
disciplined? Were you hardworking? Blah blah blah. Or was it a bit like, you know,
seeing how we go and Yeah. Great question. Well, quite simply is
I was a rogue runaway rogue. Like I got kicked out of Cubs, that
sort of guy. Found the footy easily and
didn't need to work hard. But as you know, when you get to the big
league, you know, you've got a, you're, you're up against it. And,
when I went to the saints, I didn't realize the caliber and I'm tagging
halves and these sort of guys, and I just, I didn't have a great mental
foundation. And then once the pressure goes on, my body started to crack and my
mind started to crack. My parents separated. All hell broke loose. And I
was like, what in god's name is going on here? And then I really hit
the skids. Mhmm. But it was a it was a really hard,
growing up. I mean, I got asked to leave me in time grandma. I went
to another school. They asked me to leave that within a couple of weeks. You
know, my wife was pretty rugged. So then I I piece it
together after that, Jack, and and that's where the story begins. Yep. Yep. So
with with that VFL journey, because obviously, like so many, you know,
your whole life was dictated to by and obviously been
excelling. You know, you obviously didn't have to work that hard. You sort of knew
what was going to happen for you. When that is all taken away from you
Yeah. What like, what is that like? Because a lot of people, you know You
know. Yeah. Well, Jack, we've spoken to me this a bit, but a lot of
people are lost in life and because they don't know their purpose. Whereas Yeah. Both
of you, your purpose was destined at a very young age, and people,
like, looked up to you and they would tell you how good you were, but
then all of a second, it's gone. Mhmm. What's that like? It's a
huge identity crash, and you're not equipped for it. And I mean, I
when I hit the skids there, they they gave me Timmy Peek and then he
was a player slash learning psychologist back in the day. And he did his
best. And then I went to another psych after that, and I couldn't quite figure
it out. And yeah. So I grabbed the surfboard, the red heeler dog,
made sure my mom was alright because the family is separated, which is a huge,
huge, another identity shift for a family collective. And I just went
surfing around Australia playing footy, and, I had to put the pieces of the puzzle
together. And, I grew up really
quickly then. It took me 3 years to recover from that. I mean, I was
in a in a world of hurt. And then my then on my I went
for a bit of a, you could say, I traveled to the Gold Coast, play
out there at Southport, and had the red heeler dog, Jack.
And I just went to go and hang out with myself because I've I was
getting in fights a lot and I was punching on. It was just mayhem.
And so I had to leave my mates behind. And, and then, I went into
I started to study, the mind and it was the only thing I was passionate
about. Because in school, I couldn't give a shit. Yep. You know, sport, hanging
out with mates, doing what you need to do to get through. I would have
been diagnosed with ADD back in the day, but there's no such thing.
Yeah. You know? Because I couldn't, you know, get through a class without pissing
someone. Yeah. Sounds
very You're in the right mood. Sounds
very similar. You're in the right room. Sounds very similar. You're a pure report card
to the executives. It doesn't I don't think we're made to sit. I mean, like,
seriously, why do we just sit in and like Oh, Dan's very passionate. Don't get
him started on this rant. I'm so passionate about this. Like, honestly, that's not
your fault. The way you're being taught is not the right way. Yeah, mate. Why
are we supposed to sit down all day? Not only that. You know, growing up
at they sent me to grammar at grade 4, went to and then I
got caned and and strapped and, you know, I'm talking seriously caned week after
week, you know, with with a whacking cane.
And my name over the speakers, everyone was used to it. Mine is the head
of headmaster's office. Not for good reasons. I couldn't sit by
that. Like, even reading a book was difficult, you know. So everything I do now
with quality mind, there's no paper. It's all technology. It's all
activation. It's all get your hands dirty. Mhmm. And that's why I
learned. Yep. But back then, you know, we were using
fountain pens, mate. I'm 49. What the fuck?
You really need to explain what a fountain pen is. It's not something in the
garden. Hey. I don't wanna explain that. It's a it's a nightmare thing about those
things. There's no caves here. So Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're
so lucky. Anyway.
Yeah. So, so that's the experience. Right? Then I was lost.
I was completely lost. But, and then you get to the big league and then
you you know, it'll, when you're under pressure, you're really fanned out as a
person. You know? You or the have built that that foundation
from a young age, which really comes down to a lot of leadership, you know,
and going through tough times as a kid can help. But if you haven't got,
the belief in yourself and all those sorts of things, you're in no man's land.
Yeah. So that's what I do with AFL players and people around athletes around the
world and plus 100 of people who's helped them build a really firm firm foundation,
reprogram the way they operate. And it's bloody good fun. How they think
about themselves and talk to themselves and yeah, because and I find it
interesting like when no matter how prepared you think you are
for when it finishes and when you leave, like, I tried to get as prepared
as I could and, you know, study and you'd speak to a lot of people.
Oh, yeah. It's tough when you leave. And so, you know, you're expecting it and
you're and you're think you're ready for it. Those first couple of years, it's
you you're absolutely, lost really. And no matter what you've
done or, you know, even if you walk straight into another job or if you've
been given this opportunity, it's your whole life has shifted and the
routine's completely different. You're no longer getting looked after and
all the rest of it. It's bloody hard to, to manage. And you are a
long lot more than white, 10 times more than I was, mate. And so, you
know, that's it's a significant life moment when especially when you're getting the media
scrutiny and, and not only that you're beating shit out of your own self. Yeah.
Just a moment. And that and that's as you said, like, that's the thing that
took me a long time was to sort of get back to, you know, like,
I was similar to you. I reckon, like, maybe not quite as rough and, you
know, growing up, but 1, everything was the best, you know,
and you're just getting told your whole life you're amazing. You're amazing. And then you
get to the big leagues and you shit. You shit. You're no good for 10
years. Mhmm. It's hard to, like, get out of that rut and
get back to saying, you know what? You're actually you you're a good person.
You work hard. You blow when you've been told for 10 years that you're shit.
Yeah. So that was sort of the big thing for me. And you probably you
wouldn't be able to hide. No. You know, where I could. I've been done up.
I mean, that's for a lot of players. I don't piss off overseas. Get out
of the limelight. But, well, you've done well now, buddy. Yeah. Well You know? You
know? We're getting there. You got a hole in your face, Jacko. It's all good.
At the end of the day, mate, I think that's a big thing. Yeah. So
with that, Rich, I'm really it's funny how you're in the right place
at the right time and you you make your own luck. I'm a big believer
in that. So, obviously, you said you're up playing footy at Southport, you had your
dog jack, you're surfing. Finding yourself out, you started, like,
looking into your mind and so forth like this. What what's that process like
and how long did it take to you figure out that you were onto
something? Yeah. Great question. So, yeah, on the journey up so
the journey continued for many, many years. I reckon I went on a bit of
a spiritual awakening for about 15 years. And I didn't know it
was actually that, but I was just figuring out because there was a few times
when I was 16, 17, I was gonna knock myself. I remember the tree. I
remember that I had the the rope ready. It was a pretty significant time. I
bolted out of the house to get ready to do it, and I stopped myself.
And then we got asked to leave the 2nd school in 2 weeks, so I
contemplated again. So I was in a bit of a hole. So that that so
then I ducked off to Queensland as I mentioned, and I actually started, I just
went and saw I looked I wanted a mentor. I needed someone that could actually
guide me. And I found this old spiritual dude who was really deep into this
space, and he completely revamped the way I process in my life and gave
me a a mind expansion sort of 2 year catch up for coffee
every probably 3 weeks. And that helped me significantly to
dive into quantum physics, understanding because I was never a fan of
religion, you know, but understand there's more to it. There's some sort of energy
behind the the soul that we live in and and and what all that's about.
And and so I was just going from that. I was actually going to group
meditations. At the same time, I was playing at Southport, and I'm an enforcer sort
of player and I'm punching on for fun, you know. And I'm meditating in
groups on Thursday. 2 different 2 different hats. Yeah. 2
so then I just kept uncovering things. I was reading a lot of books in
that I cared about and, fell in love with. And they're just everyday books on
life. And then what happened after that? I just
kept learning, keep speaking, keep and then I I build a,
I traveled to South by Subiaco footy club and and captain
that club over there, which finished my career. So I was still on this journey,
but it was just unpacking it. But when you open your mind to
becoming better, things just flood into you. If you closed off, then
you closed off. And it just started to fell in my fall in my lap.
And then, what happened was it just all all of a sudden I
started to see systems in how to help how to help high
performance teams. So I'd sort of build a business around
that, helping heaps of clubs around Australia,
systemize culture really quickly. I realized that
Australia was too small. That that kicked off. Off. We won 50 premierships.
So I'm sort of fast tracking this, but and then then I built that into
the business world around the world, partnered with a billionaire in a in
or sort of a billionaire in America and the company blew up.
And so my my mind was finally cracking into
how to help organizations and people systemize and
activate their businesses or their minds, in a unique
different way that was easy and palatable when not wasn't woo woo. Does that make
sense? Yeah. So it just sort of unpacked itself, but there's a lot more to
it. And the journey just kept going, but I was still drinking beers on the
weekend and carrying like a pork chop. But I'd pulled my head in a lot.
I stopped blowing. I started being kind to myself. I was then using
the processes and tools that I was given, and I started to really kick in.
And I started to see my life really far up. It's like shit, it's
working for me. Then I systemize what I was doing and then I basically
built 2 businesses out of it. Mhmm. Wow. What what was some of the, the
key things that you would bring into a business
or or a team that, you know, in terms of culture,
fostering that really positive culture, are there some key sort of
elements that you bring you bring in? Yeah. It's a systemized 12 or full
season program. So, so every business or
every footy team, they need to have a heart. Like there needs
to be a really care connection and ownership. So really work with the
leadership group to start with. So I was given the role as the western bulldogs
leadership coach 1 year because that's the acaman has put leading teams in the
in the misery. So I got the gig. Yeah.
Took me handstands. Yeah. Took me handstands. But
just just getting the leaders highly connected accountable,
getting them to build relationships throughout, getting them to share stories about
their lives, hold them accountable to leadership acts on the
field, assessing their leadership, more
in terms of, you know, just supporting each other and making
sure that folks are picked up off the ground. You know, that's the basic stuff,
but absolutely building a new habit in it. So once you build a new habit
in the team, it actually permeates out. And all of a sudden, everyone's doing
it. Mhmm. Yeah. And so, basically, in a footy team in particular, you know, the
this the way the the out of all the supremacists I've won, there's 3
types of people in an organization. There's like when a new player comes to the
club and and you would have seen this, they come to the
club. They don't know what to expect. You know, how do people behave? How
do they act? And so they go from a a shape,
like, coming into the herd into either a me person or a we
person. Right? So if they come into a me person looking
after themselves, which you naturally sort of do as a new recruit because you wanna
get a game, and that becomes the norm, then that
club won't succeed. Mhmm. No. Like, out of all the premierships, it really come down
to how many people are are we, we're all in together, and me.
And so the goal is just to get as everyone into we Yeah. As quickly
as we can. And so we're getting them in there between 8 12 weeks, and
we're seeing clubs turn around from bottom of the ladder, the premiership premiership teams.
And and because a lot of players in footy clubs and businesses, they're just they're
dormant. They're asleep. They're not activated because their heads get in the way. Their
attitudes and behaviors stink. And if you got a
majority of those people, you're not gonna it's not gonna permeate through. Does it does
that make sense? Yeah. Yeah. Especially if the people at the top running the show
have that attitude. Like, I I find that's what you really need is
the the guys at the top need to be driving it. Because I think,
when I've been I've been a lot around a lot of sort of, you know,
unsuccessful clubs and probably poor attitudes. Yeah. And it's like 1
thing to say it because I feel like every club now is saying the same
thing. Like, we gotta be connected. We gotta be it's a team game,
team got, you know, all this stuff. Yeah. But to actually
create that genuine care for for your
club, for your performance, for your teammates. Yeah. That's the that's the
difficult part. It's easy to say. Yeah. But it's hard to get it to,
yeah, to sort of permeate through the whole team. So That's it. Yeah. That's They
say it. Right? They say it. So that was the goal is words are
speechless, you know, acted. So so the best teams have a critical mass
of leaders. Yeah. So I I run a program. It's quite interesting at the
bulldogs in my 3rd year. So the 1st year I had the leadership group, which
was coons and all that. And Boydy and Gia and
and those sort of characters, legend blokes. He go. And then I had
a second year, I had the leisure with the emerging leadership group. And the 3rd
year I had the whole club. And I had the coaches each week too. So
Randy's program was pretty full on. Like, I was ballsy to run
it. You gotta be ballsy though. But I had Brenda McCartney sign off on
it. So basically what we did in an essence over a 32 week period.
And Benny Graham. Remember Benny Graham in in NFL NFL?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He was, he was supporting me in this.
So I basically said to all the players, here's a sheet of paper. Alright. There's
44 names on there. Go away. Don't let anyone know. But we had
5 behaviors, you know. Honesty, fun, accountable,
all these sort of things that they chose. And this is the culture that we're
building. And they'd go away in the corner, and I'd they'd have to
circle the player on players on that list who actually
live and breathe those 5 behaviors all the time. And so then I'd come back
the next day. I had all the numbers, all the stats, and I'd put a
bar chart on how many out of 42 were given 5 out of 5 on
behaviors. Right. And hardly anyone. And so then we put strategies in
place every 8 weeks. I'd come back and do the same thing. And so we
gave them the tools. We gave them the environment to connect and to no 1
knows who they're voting for. So if you got no votes, obviously no
1 voted for it. If you got 5 votes, there's 5 people in here that
nominated me as that. And so then the goal was to keep so you'd have
to keep going around You're trying to. And just try to build lashes and get
out sort of comfort zones. Be accountable. Yeah. Yeah. And it's a real it's a
real nail dropper for people that who've been there 5, 6 years and no 1
no 1 voted for them. Like, we had to really manage the egos on this
1. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. So a lot of support was put in, and then
you go back week 8. And then the numbers started to really grow, You know?
And there was 10 that had, you know, 5 out of 5. Then there was,
like, 5 who had not 4 out of 5. And and there's still
a half loose that had nothing. So then we go to,
week 24 and these sort of things, and it started to really grow. And you
could actually walk in the club and hear the chatter and the voice and the
communication and the friendships building. And then by week 32, we had, you
know, probably 35 33 players, 5 out of 5.
And this is a year before they won flag. Yeah. Do you know what I
mean? I got sacked that year. Yeah. You know, Brendon is like, mate, we've had
enough. It's like, oh, he goes, I'll take I can't can't give you the insides,
but, you know, putting Griff on as captain, I disagreed with a few things. But
and so and so that was the sort of stuff we did. But the connection,
you're talking about what we do, the connection, the honesty,
and then, and then being accountable to,
bring your game. Don't just come and play footy. Come and meet blokes, come and
get to know blokes and, and tell us about your hard
times, that sort of stuff. So that is sort of that's human character. At its
best. I love that. 1 of the big things, doesn't matter who I'm working with,
Rich, on the same connection before content. That is all I talk about.
Because in the day, doesn't matter if you 2 are the best footballers in the
room. If you're assholes, no 1 wants to be on your team. Yeah. Alright. Or
if you're not a good person, someone doesn't wanna be around you. Yeah. It's a
very simple concept. Yeah. But it it sort of seems that I
don't know if COVID's changed the people's perception or how we treat people, but
Yeah. It just goes back to that foundation of relationships. Exactly. And
that's what all you did Mhmm. To build that program. You did it in a
pretty harsh way Yeah. But that's probably the only way it would have happened. Well,
I had to sign off from them, and I knew it would work. They just
had to hold on. But the other thing that really blew up and the
the bi week, would have been maybe 14 g and Boyd and
and the guys goes, why aren't the coaches doing this? Mhmm. Because he could they
could sense disenfranchisement with the relationships there. And I said, well, I'm not going there
with that 1. What do you wanna get sacked all the time?
It gets better. And then I said, you go and figure that 1 out. So
they went in there and said, well, you gotta do it. Yeah. It was what?
13 coaches or something. And, reluctantly, they
did. And and it was, it wasn't a good meeting. Mhmm. You
know, we're not to put the numbers up for that 1. And I had people
in the car park saying, Rich, you sure this is confidential? Like, man, I'm gonna
get me asking for that. And, and so,
anyway, can't give too much away because it's a lot of confidential in
this, but, put it this way, it it I don't think it finished that program
with the coaches, but the players fully emerged into it, and,
credit to them. So that's how we sort of go about it. But but everyone's
gotta be in it. Right? And, ironically, I mean, that
coaching staff didn't survive too much longer. Yeah. How's that interesting?
Well, they and that's what I was gonna say. Like,
I guess it's a great way if you if you can sort of create,
like, in a positive way, like, okay, let's get everyone up. And but
when when you start sort of, alright, we've got 30 blogs, then 10 of you,
what what are you 10 doing? And you're sort of singling them out. Like, you
only get no votes. They're obviously gonna get shitty. And it sounds
like same with the coaches. Like, that's what happened. Like, if some if, you know,
2 of the coach, 3 of the coaches, all of a sudden, they're not getting
the votes, they're gonna go, oh, fuck this. Like, I don't wanna you know? And
then it creates a bit of, you know, it's such a fine line
between creating division and bringing everyone together and
making it a positive thing. Yeah. Well, you think they would have seen the results
of what's happening out there with their players. Mhmm. Right? But but as you know,
when they're ex ex elite athletes in a coaching role, there's
a lot of ego. Yeah. You know, and I'm a change agent. I'm a change
manager. So I had to be careful as hell. Yeah. And,
and when you're dealing with old heads who have done a 102 100, 300 games,
you know, it's, it's Hard as hell. And that that's what I
that's what I hate about it so much. Yeah. It's like, it's like
and I think it's changing a lot now, but just the egos in the
coach, like, in so many coaches and stuff. It's all from memory, Jack? Oh
my god. No. Shit. I know. Get the shakes. Thinking
about it at the moment. Get the cane out.
This is no word of luck. I remember, like, you know, we'd we did all
these, you know, the, personality tests and, like, they're
coming in saying, like, we know you're all you're all completely different. Like, I can't
fucking sit down and I'm not I'm not like but I bring the
energy. I bring this. I bring that. And, you know, so the coaches are coming
in saying, we know you're all different. So we're gonna let you know, we're gonna
treat you differently. We're not gonna just treat you the same because Yeah. But
then they they do it because we had all, you know, a big mix of
different personalities within the within the playing group. The coaches
did the same thing. So this is like sounds similar. It's
like 90 our head coach 99% enforcer.
Yeah. Every single person that he had brought into the club,
enforcer, enforcer, enforcer, enforcer, enforcer. Yeah.
And and yet on this little mozzie fucking flying around, like, needs
needs to cuddle, needs love. And then he's they're just going your
shit. Just fucking be hard. Like, why alright. That's
not the like, And so they talk all this bullshit in front of the people
who are coming in to run the programs, but they don't live it and that's
what I'm, you know, they're not genuine about it because they're they are who they
are, you know. Yeah. I didn't give 2 sheets to that personality profile, to be
frank with you. Yeah. Because you are what you are. Yeah. And, like, how many
premierships have been won out there for, you know, it's semi professional
level and I wouldn't have a bloody clue. Yeah. All I did is just film
a a critical mass of leaders, make a great environment. Everyone gives a shit about
each other and they love what they do. Yep. You know? But they can overcook
it at the top end. Yeah. Exactly. There's so many coaches, so much to say,
and then some of the egos to deal with. But, you know, there's still some
great coaches. I've got a good mate, Sammy Redford out at Melbourne now, and he's,
he's working his way up. He's been outstanding, you know. So he's worked his way
up as a non a AFL player, but certainly got credentials at,
at community footing. Yeah. Yeah. And I think that's it doesn't I don't think it
matters if you have played at the top level. It comes down to the qualities
you have. Is that something you found? Obviously, being in the system
gave you that leg in, but then coming in and dealing with big
egos when you're trying to make change. Mhmm. Like, was that hard?
Particularly when you're trying to establish yourself. I'm guessing that wouldn't have been
easy. Well, at that time, my company started to really blow up around the
world. So, I mean, I coach coaches now. That's what I
and I'd once the bulldogs experience finished, I really didn't wanna get back into team
sport because you're working weekends. Yeah. And a lot of
the sort of stuff. So I now work with individuals. I applies in a mental
level as opposed to culturally To get me back into a club now culturally, it'd
have to be a way really good wage. Do you know what I mean? But
my time's now more important. So I traveled the world, after the
bulldogs. It's funny how that chapter ended and very quickly a new chapter and I
literally trained up nearly 700 coaches in 25 countries traveling the
world with a translator. Mhmm. You know, from Vietnam to Portugal to Mexico.
And so my company just went boom. So I'm 4 months of the year on
a plane, and, and I had a lot to manage
there. And so all the practices I'd put into these the Aussie football clubs
went overseas and put into the business world. And it didn't
matter what culture you were, what age you were, as long as you,
you know, as long as you wanna be part of it, then then you're gonna
win. So, yeah. So I just didn't look back down. You know, after
that I help out clubs occasionally as a love job, you know, to,
but I, I had 20, sports coaches doing it,
that sort of stuff. Mhmm. Yeah. Sounds like you 2 sort of have, you
know, quite similar sort of what did it get lonely
traveling on your own, You know, I guess and and it's
sort of like what you talk about a lot, Dale, with the your keynote speaking.
And it's, you know, that team environment, you don't have that when you're
working for yourself. But I guess you've, you're, you know, coaching
people. So you've got that relationship. Yeah. I loved it, mate. I'm flying
business class, getting a driver everywhere, you know, everywhere. Bolivia had a
freaking you name it. I miss the family. I had a young family growing up
and it was probably detrimental to, you know, obviously, but they're so young that I
don't realize. But, because, yeah, I was getting off a plane, going
straight into a training room for 5 days straight. Having some
downtime was the best thing. Yep. You know, but she didn't get. So then I
started to take a couple of days off afterwards and see the pyramids and
whatnot. Yep. But, yeah, I'm sort of done with it now. Yep.
I did my I did my stint, you know, 4 years of it. And,
now I'm pretty happy to be back in Melbourne and staying here with this online
world we live in. Yeah. I think you've been COVID's been a blessing in that
aspect. You know, that you don't always have to get on a plane. Yeah. Did
you I've I've got a young family as well, Rich, and I do a lot
of travel too. I've sort of canned I spoke to Jack about this on a
podcast. Just the physical load that that was when you're
going away and giving yourself to so many people and you fly back and you've
got no time for yourself or family. Mhmm. Like, as you said, a detrimental to
a young family or whatever. Do you look back on that now? And, like, how
do you see that time? Like, and this is probably
not Felicity's. I'm being very selfish here. Just for your personal
experience? Yeah. Well, I guess personally on 2 fronts,
I grew a lot as a speaker. You know what I mean? Front of 12
state people of 1200 people. And so there's a whole learning for me to go
through, but and also flip tight side as you mentioned. Well, I was lucky enough
because the I've got 3 daughters, twins at 7 now and a 10 year
old. And, this is going back,
what, 65, 6, 7 years ago. So I was too young. Yep. You know, and
that sort of gave me some level of solace to know, well, I don't, I
can't even remember being in prep. You know, really. Were you getting a cane then?
Yes. Do you remember that?
Sorry, mate. That's it. That's all something you don't wanna hear.
Sorry, man. I didn't pronounce it good now myself.
Oh, sorry about I think,
I think I yeah. Just I think people look at how
glamorous it is, you know, where you're flying all these different remote places and you're
speaking and you're making an impact. The thing I found when I reflected is
I'm making an impact to other people that end of the day don't matter as
much to the people at home. I have a couple of young boys and they're
probably very similar to me. They probably do need to cane. I hope they're not
listening 1 day, but I'm never gonna do it. But to me, they're very hyperactive.
And he'll bring Rich around, call it in tears. We'll get, are you a
me or a we?
Boy. I was just looking at it, and, like, it just wasn't, you know,
it wasn't working for anyone involved. And so, yeah, I've canned a lot of those.
But, yeah, just interesting the dynamic. I don't know if it's different with girls, but
how yeah. You look back on those times. Yeah. I don't count them. Yeah. It's,
yeah. No. I don't look back. I look at it as a blessing. Everything I've
done, I've made huge mistakes, but, you know, as they say, you're the person now
because of it. Yeah. Correct. I mean, I if I could I've written 4 books,
and if I was honest in those books, it'd be really bread worthy. Like, there's
a lot of shit I've done that just you can't speak about. Not not too
illegal. Do you know what I mean? Yep. But, nah. Loved
it. Yep. And, looking forward to look, I'm I'm living, You know? I'm
literally living. Yeah. And I I look after my my
state, you know. Like, my state is the way I feel and the way I
think is my best, mate. Having said that, I'll get on the cans with the
boys, you know, the when when the opportunity's there. But my
daily routine is pretty structured, walking, gymming,
meditating, using our technology all the time. So I'm alive.
Like, you know what I mean? Like, I don't look back any I just don't
bother. As long as my kids are great, don't hurt anyone along the way, the
best of your abilities, and then, just, keep keep advancing
yourself. Yeah. Has that changed a lot from, you know, as you've gotten older
that, you know, how much you've cared for yourself and take care of yourself compared
to getting on the cans, having a good time with the boys, whatnot? Oh, yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. I'll look, you know, we go golf weekend and I'm last man standing.
And, but I manage my mind the next day as the best I can.
So when you when you work in this space, you don't let any sloppy thinking
in, and you just get on top of things. But, certainly, I think it's
a maturity thing, Jack. You know, like you you don't want to feel like crap
so much anymore. Like being, being energetically alive in
your mind is 1 of the best things ever, you know, like when you're really
fit and you're on and all, and I never knew what that was like, you
know, cause when you're traveling, surfing and playing footy, you know, he's a lot, lot
of fun to add. Yeah. Exactly. And I find fun for you.
You think that's normal though? You think when you, you know, you have out in
the cans 2, 3 times a week, you think that you're at your
peak after 2 days off, you're back to your peak. But it's it's not the
case, is it? You you know, you're sort of at this 70% level
always. Yeah. Not reaching that full circle. That's what happens. We
sell sabotage. Right? Because we're not used to the energy. Yeah. The energy is
so much. It's so extremely like, I'm going to the pub.
Yeah. Yeah. And it makes
me get damaged. Oh, I did it again. Jesus Christ. Not
again. You're not right, wasn't it?
Oh, so true. Yep. So true. So obviously now, Rich, like
you're global killing it with your business. You've spoken all over the world. Do
you find it hard to find new things to challenge yourself? Because I know, like
you just said, you're feeling very good in yourself. Your family is going
really well. You've got a brilliant business, and you've had a big impact, and you
still are. Do you find that next big thing to keep that
spark going? Or what you're just doing day to day? Like, you said you're alive.
You know, you're you're lit up. Mhmm. Is that enough? Or I think
someone like you, mate, you you need you need something new. You
need something or are you discontent? No. No. No. No.
Things unfold like, you know, I've got 40 coaches
now with quality mind and, finding new
strategies, new technology. We're into the AI world now. There's always something
coming. We're into biohacking now as well. So you're on biohacking
12 week programs, size spas, gut health, meditation, breath
work, all that sort of stuff. So we're designing these brand new so so I
live it and breathe it. So basically, all the programs I've designed, I have to
do it first. Yep. You know, not only do it like ingrain yourself and then
have a a study of people around me do it with me and see the
response. So there's always learnings. When you're in working with people for a living,
like, we are a complicated species. No doubt. Right? My god.
You know, I'm working with top level executives at AI Health Insurance right down to
I've got a I've got, actually, Adam is Boyden
after this session for a for a session with him to get a help him
elite. So I've just got a mixture of people and that
enough is is is enough. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, then you've
got the because my my I'm a visionary for the business. I'm 3 years ahead
of the competition, and I think now I wanna be 5 years ahead. So I'm
consistently learning every morning. I'm learning, learning, learning. What else was it what's
happening out there? So there's just no stop. You know, when
you love what you do, it just unravels, you know, just sort of so you
get in flow with life where life flows to you as opposed to most people
who disengage with life, they're chasing life. Mhmm. Does that sort of make sense? No.
Big time. It does. And you can see that, like and I I think I'm
very fortunate that I'm very similar that life just happens because
I'm happy where I am and doing it. I'm fascinated with AI. I think it's
I think a lot of people are scared by it, Rich, because I'm an AI
bot. You are an AI bot. Where's the real Rich?
Hank. Hank. Hank.
Hank's right dude. Jesus. Alright. I thought we had Richard. But, look, so I think
a lot of people are scared by it because of what it could do instead
of looking at it as what it can do as a superpower to enhance what
you already do. Mhmm. What are some of the things you're using it for and
what are you excited about it? Well, it's like tech. Right? When people get on
the app, our app is a game change for people because we just to sort
of digress, we we change we we're about neuroscience. Right? So we change the
brain through repetition. So if you keep telling yourself you're a good person, you're a
good person, you become a good person. Right? There's a lot more to it. But
so, so, technology was assigned
in. Where was it going? AI. Yeah. So AI,
you can use tech for good and tech for bad. Right? People say, I don't
wanna get on my app. It's like, man, there's there's good tech and there's bad
tech. Yeah. So don't get on and social media yourself out of it. Get on
and do the the what it's good for. So same with AI coming. We've
just added AI to our website. So we've got a digital mind mentor on it
now. And so, more or less, what we we
we focus on data. So let me just focus on your question first. Sorry. I'm
getting I've got ADD. No. No. No. That's fine. I love it. Go keep going
but you you're coming back. Yeah. Yeah. I love it. So,
AI is here and it's gonna be extremely exciting, but extremely,
alarming if it's not managed well. And the governments aren't keeping up. Let's be
honest. Right? There's a lot of tech companies that are just doing all sorts
of stuff, stealing our data, our identity, all our IP, all that's I mean, we're
going into the world where privacy is not gonna be problem and get used to
it, you know. So just be careful what you put out there. So
with, AI, what's coming is just
phenomenal. So with with us at QualityMine, we know data. So we do these
programs, 12 or 24 week programs. Our coaches are trained to do 1
group session each week. And then the whole concept of when
that client leaves the session, they use our app between 7 to 30
minutes a day on reprogram their thinking and feeling and and all
these overwhelmed sort of questions and meditation and visualization.
And it works. Right? So then they get off, they do these 7 to 30
minutes a day. They have to, or they get striked out. Right? So we've got
a 135 star reviews because of this, and they changed their neurology. And
when you change your brain, your life changes. And so with AI, we're gonna it's
coming in now to sort of help the coach with
collecting or getting them activated on the app, by getting to know Dale
and then finding out what time you woke up. Have you got your if you're
are, you know, being fitness as we kept as your wearables Yep. And communicating
with a mate and keeping you motivated and keeping your brain
changing all the time and your body and your awareness
of who you really are, not what you've become along the way. And so when
this AI digital mind mentor comes in, it's gonna
just basically become your best friend in your pocket. And then you get to the
live coaching session next week and your brain has changed significantly
more. Right? Because people are lazy. People will go, I'll get to it
later, especially high execs because they're so busy. So this will come in and just
complement their brain change. And we'll be able to do 3 to
5 times more people on a group course. So at the moment, we're doing that
usually a group of 10, from all walks of life, all
different countries. And so it's gonna help people. So
we're seeing it as a, a way
to to be, your mentor in your pocket permanently
and to open your eye, your eyes and change your brain for the way you
want to design your life. Does that make sense? It does. It does. It's about
neuroplasticity. Yeah. So there's a whole lot of science behind what we're doing. So I
can't wait for it. Again, again, on our website, you'll see a little
chatbot on the right and that's been trained up now and it'll actually can run
you through a program. Yep. It's called it's got my voice on it.
So it's a, it's it's very engaging. Oh, I'd be loving it. Listen to
it. Welcome to quality Is it hate or
it should be? You ask it, mate. It's that good at
Depends on the day. I don't know who I am.
But it it creates good accountability, doesn't it? Like, if you've got someone it's
like results, you know, proven. If you've got some best mate that you go
into the gym with, you're going to go there more, you know, more often.
And so it sounds like you're using that as, as an accountability tool
almost and a way for people to yeah. Oh, you could wake up in the
morning and have blow up with your missus or your husband, whatever it may be.
And then you could just go, look, how do I deal with this?
What happened? Okay. And just give you some advice and and then
check-in with you, at 9:30 AM when you when when you're home and say, right,
did you activate that idea? And if not, these are options. Right? I still, let's
go and eat a healthy food. Let's talk about this in an hour's time, you
know, sort of building that and then make sure you watch session 3 again. Cause
that was good. There's 3 key key points. You know what I mean? So it's
gonna get to that level. Wow. Because people, in
particular, there's what 23% of the planet alone only,
you know, so we're really going for that, that group and, and 56% of
Americans and around about the same percentage of Australia live month by month.
So we've got to find a way to help them with an with,
breakthrough that that rush, and give them someone that they can actually rely
on even though, yes, it's a it's a digital coach, but by then it'll
become it'll know you. It'll understand how you wanna communicate. It
could be even humorous. In fact, it already is. I've trained it to be quite
funny. So It's funny when a person trained and says is beta funny.
Of course it it is. It's funny to me at least. Yes. Of course.
Oh, I love that. And I think that's I think we need to get used
to that. Like, that for me, I grew up in a country where it's like
being honest to have a conversation with anyone, you know, walk in, like,
be able to strike up that conversation is something of a skill set that I
feel is just slowly leaving us. And like what you said there, it probably
scares a lot of people that their friend's gonna be this AI bot in their
pocket. Yeah. But realistically, that's a positive because a lot of people, like you said,
don't even have that in their pocket. They've got nobody. We're so socially
connected but so socially disconnected. So realistically, it
sounds horrible and sad but you're sort of giving people a lifeline by giving them
someone. Yeah. As long as it hopefully heads in the direction of helping them
connect with real people. Yeah. Well, but that's where it might not. Well, this is
the thing. That's the plan of this. We're we're we're doing a big raise at
the moment. So if anyone's out there who wants to invest in quality of mine
Cash. Cash. Yeah. Cha ching. We're doing it. So
also if you're on a crew, we say 20 people and you've and what happens
is in the cruise, it's all a future focused coaching.
So we don't care about the past. Because if you think about the past you
create it. Right? And so we're designing forward and everyone starts seeing everyone's
breakthroughs. But the whole idea of AI also on top of this is to
sort of go, okay. You get a ping from AI going Jack and Dale,
basically putting a word out. So can you connect me to Jack, Dale, and Bruce
and see if they're up for a, you know, catch up in half an hour?
Jong actually goes and it'll connect you like that. You know what I mean? So
you can get on a, an AI group chat, whatever it may be. And so
we want to keep getting people connected is the critical aspect of
this as well. And not only that growing. So that's all put into the the
plan, but I can't give too much No. Too many competitors.
I'm sure oh, I'm sure there is because, like, that's just the world we live
in now that there are so many lonely people, which is so sad. Yeah. And
realistically, all I need to do is walk outside and join a club or go
to a gym and and have a conversation. But that social anxiety or, you
know, the stress of doing that is too much for a lot of people. So
that's I just think it's a really interesting place, you know, where where
we're at. And that talking about this is fascinating because it's definitely in the
way of the future. Well, I mean, the commercial real estate industry has gone
to shit. You know what I mean? Around the world, people will be more home
now than ever because of the way we live. Yeah. And people don't wanna get
back to the office. So and what happens is as you know as you know,
momentum kicks in and and then the TV and Netflix is your is your
so called outlet. And, that's why pubs are crashing. Yeah.
I mean, we used to just hit the pub, you know, and, and that sort
of stuff. So what's happening in a couple of years that's happening. So how do
we as leaders of society, provide
people with tools that they can activate, in the best
way possible and live a happier life. So, I mean, 1 of the best things
about what we do is it permeates down the legacy of the family. So when
you change the parent or 1 parent, they usually, the other parent would
join the program. Then they've got their kids meditating and doing our thought shopping stuff.
And they just, you're changing the cultural dimensions of families. And this is
really exciting. Yeah. You know, when you see a family go, well, you
know, we, we, this is the way we were operating and they've just
learned it from their parents. Right. It's great to pass on. And at
the, at its core on a soul level, you know, we're all here to
grow. And if you'd stop growing, that's when depression kicks in. Right? So, but a
lot of people are waking up in there because of COVID. A lot of people
are waking up to what is, what is going on around here? You know, am
I happy where I am? No, I'm not. And so the people are going within
now more than ever. And, and they're waking up and they're
realizing that the governments are full of shit. You know, because a lot of the
media is just all collaborating on the same such, you know, without going down that
rabbit hole, but people are, you know, hitting in direction of, okay,
well just starting to live more now and this is what our role is to
help them ascend. So true. I
love that. Now, Rich, we Yeah, Joe. A bit bit heavy for you. No. It's
exciting. I guess Like, you're doing something to
try and help, but it's the it comes with a lot of,
Yeah. There's just I don't know. It's it's like it's dark in 1 sense, like,
where the world's at, but I guess you're trying to help that
darkness and bring people, you know Yeah. To a better life. So Well, dark and
light is a priority to to evolution and and
growth because if you don't have dark, you don't learn what you want. Mhmm. And
so we're in a dualistic world, which means you have to have bad and you
have to have good. So people just see it as bad. And then look, 95%
of our thinking is yesterday's thoughts. And what are they like? You
know, they just recirculate around and it's all bullshit. It's a
delusion and illusion that you've been telling. If you if you look at the worry
and you had in your head this time 5 years ago, it didn't happen.
Yeah. Correct? So we're programmed. Yeah. Yeah. And so
actually on that, like, our first 7 years as a human being,
our program is formed because we are in a hypnotic state, you know, like,
a theater state as a child and this is a fascinating thing. So 95%
of who you are is built in the 1st 7 years. You probably have spoken
about this on your podcast. I'm not too sure. And so how to change
that is is our role. Is our job is to help people snap out of
that subconscious patterning that they've got in there that they just don't know how to
get that shit out of get out of. Yeah. And I and I love that
because I used to be a school teacher. And a lot of time parents that
may not have done the best job for those 1st 7 years, the the kids
come to school and they're having issues or they're having troubles and it's easy
to blame somebody else. I think that's brilliant when you can change
that. Because kids are fun, just like you said, 7 years. You know, they're
not school, but they might be at 1 or 2 years of that. The rest
is on parents. You know, and then and if you can get them in a
good state, in a good place, that kid is gonna have the best possible
life. Mhmm. You know, but if you don't, and this is where I see it,
that year after year, cycle after cycle of parents and kids
Yeah. They're not in they don't know what they're doing is
harmful or it's it's really unfair to that kid. Mhmm. And that's
where we have to change it. So you must be, like, so proud
of seeing that because you're actually breaking generational
cycles that are so powerful and will will continue
on. Well, that's exactly right. So my advice to all young parents out there
is do this. I did this and it's worked out. My kids are really, really
well well programmed. They're getting they're getting they've all got their challenges, but, you
know. So every morning I do when I was, you know, home, which
is 8 months of the year, even now. But even now
today, my favorite time of those in the morning, I would, put them
at the brekkie bar, feed them their, their breakfast from literally as soon as
I can sit up. And then I just started programming him. I'd say to
Charlotte, you're an amazing leader. You're, you know, you're great with people.
You you're friendly. And I just start programming and programming. Then I go
to Georgia and say, Georgia, you're funny. You know, you're you're really confident.
You can handle pressure really well. And I go to Amelia, and this is what
I did every morning for I still do it. Not as much now because they're
coming out of that 7 years, and I had a strategy. And that was by
far my favorite moment of the day. Yep. Now it's been, you know, between 5
8 minutes of just sitting there, and I'd be, like, frothing at the bed, you
know. Thinking, you know, nothing. Really, daddy? You know? It's like, yeah.
And every morning, I'd say, I love you. Have I told you today? Have I
told I said it to Mills this morning. Have I told you today? Love you
because I didn't get it. You know, I don't end up punching on the pubs,
you know. And I was just angry. I didn't know who I was. So the
support of love is leadership and then also program in their mind. So if you're
in that mom and dad out there, give that a significant
focus. Mhmm. Yeah. The way we talk, it resonates. Yeah. Yeah.
You you could've done with it. Yeah. Oh, I got that. My parents I I
think anyone could do with it. Mom was here before. She'd broken her elbow to
pull it up. But, no. But I think that you can never ever
reinforce that enough. Do you know what I mean? Like, and if you think you're
doing enough, you probably do it more. Because it you can never go over the
top. Yeah. Like, there's no too much. Yeah. And at the same
time, when shit goes down in their life,
just ask them what are the options. Don't fix it. Don't fix
it because they've gotta be, critical thinkers. Yeah. It's gotta be resilient.
And, you know, cause if my, you know,
my, my partner, she will fix it, you know, and that's the nature. I just
go, well, you tell me. So, you know, these are things
I've hacked into that I've got from other people who've done it, who'd been older
than me and they they work really well. Yep. Mhmm. Mhmm. Yeah. I find it
interesting list listening to you. Obviously, like, rough upbringing
in pubs, punch ons, but you've obviously had this
incredible spiritual sort of, you know, coming to in
the past 20, 30 years, whatever it might have been.
Like stereotypically blokes growing up in pubs and punching on,
they're not going down that path. Like, what was it that that sort of drove
you there and, you know, was it? Yeah. Great question. I think it
was when it was at that stage is about middle
twenties when I started to take life a bit more seriously. Once I'd sort
of redefined my identity into who do I wanna be, I was
asking question, what am I doing here? Yeah. Who am I? And
then the more I asked that question, the more the answers sort of came through.
And then I started to just I got told to follow your highest excitement. Right?
So just follow your highest soul's journey. It's your blueprint. And I
started to do that, and then I started to get better jobs. You know, I
was a sponsorship manager for your footy club, and then I found that job. And
then as you grow as an individual, you get confident. And then you find find
that your next passion is people, and you just sort of peel back the the
next thing. And then as you develop, I think it's when you
well, in my space, I'm gonna speak for myself, but it's like when you're
on, when you're in on track, you, you just learn so
much, you know, you really learn so much and then, and then you just take
it on board and you trial it and then you just become calmer, happier, more
understanding. Like we were in a lot of pub fights and not any party
fights. And I got to the point where I'll stick to death of it. Mhmm.
You know, I was like, guys, this is bullshit. You know, like, stop. And then
I got to the point where we had like a gang. I were in gangs.
And, and I got to the point where I became the sort of leader of,
you know, the the gangs and that. And then and then I did it while
I didn't choose to. It was more like go to Richie or sort this out.
So I'd go and speak to that member over there and say, mate, what are
you fucking doing here? You know? And so I'd escort the guy out and make
sure it's all, but I just got fed up with it. I manned up, you
could say. And, and I think that really worked well. And and then I
got out. Oh, that's why I left to go to Queensland. You had to go
to change. To change. And then I was willing and wanting to change
because I wasn't happy with where I was heading and that was probably the first
step towards what you're talking about. It's a lot about who you surround yourself with.
Isn't it? Like, if you're around people that are, you know, bringing you down, it's
very hard to be that person that you want to be. I find like
the more you, you hang around, the people who you admire, who are doing the
things that you want to be doing makes it 10 times easier. Oh, huge. Even
when I went back and, I won the, the, the,
the best on ground in the VFL grand final Sanderham was in
alignment with Melbourne. And we played North Ballarat and I made a
monumental error, which is classic. I
won the best on and the non gos and the non gos. Yeah. And the
guy grabbed me and he goes, come on, mate, come up the stage. And I
couldn't because the speakers are going out that way. You couldn't hear it, and I
didn't know I'd won best on. And and he go, but but but Mitch Maloney,
you know, I couldn't even hear you. And he goes, you can hear it on
2. He goes he goes, you've won best on ground. I said, you fucking what?
And then he he goes, say something. I said, you fucking beauty.
And, anyway, what happened then is, oh, well, it just went to shit.
So I got fined by the VFL, ostracized in the
media. My mom was devastated.
Recruit because I wanted to get out of Sandringham then. So I I got recruited
to Subiaco and I said to my mates, you're not coming. I wanna
see if I can get this right. I wanna see if I'm gonna recollect my
career. This is towards 20 3, 4,
5. And I went to Subiaco and and left them all
behind. Right? But then 2 years later when I got to captaincy,
3 years later, I brought them all in. So I had to go and find
myself, prove myself, then I brought in the a grade bikes that I've always
grown up with. We came over and won a flag. So to your point, it's
who you hang around with. Yeah. And I still do with these guys. They're just
hot they're just good bikes. They they achieve they achieve high. They're not
not, you know, above and beyond, but they they're good at what they do. They're
good dads and and so forth. So I don't I just don't hang out with
anyone anymore who doesn't assimilate with the same values as me. I love that. I
think that's so true. So if you could look back in where you are now
from that lost, you know, 18, 19, 20 year old kid and
you could give yourself 1 bit of advice, Rich, what would that be? Jeez,
man. That's a good question, man. This is where we get deep. And I don't
want Hank answering this. I want Rich. Yeah. Yeah.
Be inquisitive and be willing to, look at yourself,
and and then be willing to ask for help. You know, like,
that's what I did. I had my first mentor. My first mentor had 3
significant mentors and I just literally would call someone up that I thought was
relevant and and smarter than me. And I'd just say, man, I wanna buy a
coffee. And that's how it began with my 3 my 3 mentors.
So I took ownership of my life. I just didn't wanna be
I went to a futurist actually when I was 27 and he said, they'll buy
2020, there'll be a virus coming through. There'll be 2020. No 1 would wanna work.
2020, you wanna build a business where it's online. This and now. So I sort
of got serious at 27, 28. It's like, I don't wanna be
broke by 50. Yeah. Yeah. I wanna set my life
up. And so I just went on this of activation. Like, what do I need
to do to become successful? Become the best version of me. And don't
get me wrong, man. I'm still not the best version of me. I'm in work
in progress. We all are though. Yeah. Yeah. There's no such thing as this. Yeah.
But I love it. I love who I am. Yeah. You know? You own it
though. I think that's the biggest thing. Yeah. You've gotta be able to own it.
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, listen, in terms of love where I am, I know I've
got traits that that hold me back. I've got traits that I'll enjoy,
but I'm okay with it. Yeah. Like, it's okay. I know That's who you are.
That's who I yeah. You know, I'll get fuck off.
I think that's the best part of the
That's
I think that's the best part of the album. So people know what to fuck
off, Rick. They wanna find out they wanna find out more. Where's the best place
to go? Because now you got, like, free courses you can go and do, and
it's like a live scorecard thing. It might take a fuck off. That might be
fine. Not a problem. But we it's a nice segue for you to
