About the show

High performance & humanity are often seen at opposite ends of the scale, and the perception is that they simply cannot co-exist...why not?! My name's Andy Reid , and a number of years I've had this perception of high performance hanging over my head. Sure it has driven me to achieve a few things in my time, but the sense of satisfaction has often eluded me, to the point that I've had some dark times mentally. But all this time I've been missing the trick, and that trick is understanding the true meaning of 'high performance' for human beings. This show is being put together to help people discover what it actually means to be a high performing human for them, with a focus on 4 key elements - success, influence, connection & happiness. Lots of open dialogues, plenty of thought-provoking insights from some amazing people, and hopefully...some conversations that nudge you closer towards becoming your version of a high-performing human. This podcast is proudly sponsored by Real Estate Training Australia. Ready to take on the Real Estate industry & have the right qualifications, knowledge & support to do it? Then RETA are the ones you need!

The 3D's of success in leadership - Cherie Mylordis, Founder - Next Genify

The fortune I find myself to have someone of Cherie's calibre & intellect join me...well it makes me happy!Cherie Mylordis is a leadership coach & founder of the Nextgenify academy, and my word had some pearls of wisdom for us around how leaders can blend the varying versions of success that team members, family, friends, & those that depend on us to drive the ship that they are sailing on.We went in a few differnet directions (as usual), but what I love about Cherie was that she clearly had an incredible amount of awareness, especially around how different age groups are wired when it comes to success.And FYI - pay attention to the part when she digs into her '3D's' of leadership, THEY ARE GOLD!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Turning Limitations Into Potential - Ruby Bishop, International Tennis Player

When a tennis player in that's in the TOP 30 IN THE WORLD (at just 22 years of age) says that she's happy to come onto the podcast...you jump at it! Ruby Bishop is one extraordinary human, representing Great Britain as a wheelchair tennis player, reaching #3 in the junior world rankings and now taking on the entire world in the seniors. But  the hurdles & cards that Ruby was dealt with at birth has galvanised this woman to become such a beacon of hope for so many people. We talk about her story, but also why she has 'accidentally' become a real voice for those who are marginalised by the perceived limitations that the world sees. The big thing for me? She is so damn calm about it all!!!!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Earning Your Place & Growing In The Process - Aaron Westney, FMG Pro. Body Builder

Sometimes the level of growth you get to witness can be incredible. But with Aaron Westney, it isn't just with the obvious Popeye muscles that we've seen him grow!The soon-to-be-father is a recentl;y-annointed FMG professional body builder, winning his tour card by taking out the amateur title in 2025. But outside of that, Aaron has built his sales business & exceeded many expectations in doing so, as well as building a home life by design with his amazing partner.When you dig into the story of his last decade, what you find is not the stereotypical 'alpha' body builder, but a human that is so calm in who he is, and centred around where he belongs in the puzzle of life.Founding of the Strong Man Protocol is the latest in a line of actions that are of a man who wants to help people to grow as a human in the right way, and when you listen to Aaron talk about his purpose you can't help but feel that his 'flex' in life goes way beyond his biceps & pecs!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From Olympic Gold To Finding You - Amy Truesdale MBE, Paralympic Taekwondo Champion

MY FIRST OLYMPIAN! Geek mode engaged, or so I thought until I met the human behind the medal. Amy Truesdale is a multi-medal Taekwondo champion, and in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris reached the pinnacle of her sport by winning gold for Great Britain. At 31, she felt that she finally had the world at her feet having pushed through life-long adversity, but the view she saw at the top wasn't what she was expecting. This conversation goes deep, and has us both thinking about key questions we all face such as 'why are we here?', 'what's next?' and 'Was the reward worth the sacrifice?'. We also chat about the mindset that she forged in her childhood & maximised in pursuit of her ultimate goal. This did NOT go the way I had planned, but I'm so glad it went the way it did.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When You Follow Your Passion Around The World - Sam Benton, Director (Sales & Training), MAD

You may not have heard the name 'Sam Benton' much before now, but some of the biggest companies in the WORLD hang off his every word when it comes to sales & marketing!Raised in Sydney, he now resides in London & occasionally the USA as and when another huge brand asks him to go fix their sales challenges. How? Well Sam is one of the best examples I've found when it comes to following what your gut instinct is telling you to do, giving him all the drive in the world to consume knowledge through both obsession and observation.Now partnering with the incredible Rory Sutherland (VP of Ogilvy), Sam has offered this elite level of awareness to the world via the MAD//Masters online programme, but when you chat to him one thing becomes immensly obvious....His brilliant mind observes things in the most uncomplicated way, and as a result he articulates his observations in a way that ANYONE could understand.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
