0:40

it starts with

0:44

alright, hello and welcome to episode 85

0:46

of the Most Intelligent Selection Podcast, today

0:49

with Kyle Will. Kyle,

0:52

now, I don't actually

0:54

know what it is you do, except

0:56

some very cool videos that I've seen,

0:59

very inspirational, on Instagram,

1:01

and a friend of mine who owns a restaurant asked

1:03

me to reach out to you to

1:05

make a video and promote his

1:08

restaurant, which we're gonna do after this. That's

1:10

exciting. So, it's really good. Usually

1:12

I ask the guests to introduce themselves after

1:15

I've done so, which is a disastrous way to

1:17

start an interview. But

1:19

there you go. So would you mind

1:22

to, uh, introduce yourself to me?

1:24

No problem.

1:24

Um, well I am Kyle Willinspire.

1:27

Um, I'm a healthy lifestyle

1:29

and disability advocate. So

1:32

I've spent the last two years building my brand,

1:34

utilizing social media. Um,

1:36

built a lot of strong connections and a strong following

1:39

over that time. Uh, pretty much my

1:41

whole purpose is to try and, you know, get

1:43

people into the healthy lifestyle and understand

1:46

that there is no limitations in this life. Do,

1:48

just

1:48

do whatever you want to do. Wow. All

1:51

right, mate. So we'll get straight into it. Did you

1:53

always want to be an

1:55

advocate? Let's say influencer

1:57

because my social media wasn't around when we were kids, you know, advocate,

2:00

um, for people to live

2:03

healthier lives and to. Okay.

2:05

Advocate for those with disabilities.

2:07

Uh, most definitely not. No. Okay.

2:10

Most definitely not. And that is the a hundred percent

2:12

honest truth. I was actually a hundred and one kilos,

2:14

uh, a few years ago, um, at five foot

2:16

six, just to add some, you know, strength

2:19

to that. So I was quite a big boy, um,

2:21

never really cared about my health. I kind

2:23

of just let it decline as my

2:25

condition I have declines

2:28

me as I get CMT or Charcot

2:33

Marie Tooth. Which is, um,

2:35

very, very rare, um, one

2:38

of 3 million in the world. Whoa.

2:41

Yep. If you're going to do something, do it, go,

2:44

go hard. Go and be quite unique.

2:46

I, um, yeah,

2:49

so I've lived my whole life with that, diagnosed at age

2:51

5. And it's a neuromuscular

2:54

disease that affects the outer extremities.

2:56

So, hands and feet. Can't

2:58

move my feet, can move them with my brain, but can't

3:00

move them, um, Like

3:03

they just don't move. Okay. And,

3:05

uh, with my hands, they get about 15 percent

3:07

use because the neural pathways

3:09

are damaged. So that's how

3:11

it

3:11

works. So how does that come about or is it

3:13

just luck of the draw?

3:15

So if your two parents both

3:17

have the defective gene, you then pass

3:19

it on to the child. Whereas,

3:21

if one did and one didn't, it'll be okay.

3:24

They become a carrier, so I got the lucky

3:26

dip.

3:28

Yeah, so was that the purpose, the

3:30

reason, not the purpose, the reason why

3:32

you let your health decline and the weight go

3:34

up, because you were a little bit like... This

3:38

is horrible.

3:39

Kind of, but like not really at the same

3:41

time. It was kind of just like, I just didn't

3:43

care. And I didn't reveal my disability

3:45

to people as much as I do now.

3:47

Basically, I stayed very hidden. I wore pants up

3:49

until I was 32. Like every summer,

3:52

I would always be in pants. So people would never see my leg

3:54

braces. Sorry

3:54

mate,

3:54

I'm from England and pants means something different. Oh,

3:57

okay. I was always wearing long pants. Trousers? Okay,

3:59

I know pants now. Yeah, I was

4:01

always wearing long pants. I wear pants all the time anyway.

4:05

And yeah, like I never revealed that until a

4:07

few, I was actually maybe a 33.

4:09

So in 2022, I revealed my

4:11

leg braces to the world for the first time. And the

4:14

reaction was very like. And

4:17

good. And I completely different than what you thought it would

4:20

be completely judged all the time. Um,

4:22

we, which may be true, but not, it was not projected

4:24

to me when I was judged for it. So that was

4:26

nice. Um, and yeah,

4:28

being overweight and all that stuff all the time, just

4:31

a KFC, ate whatever I wanted. I was very

4:33

money driven. I used to just work my

4:35

ass off in everything I did. And.

4:38

Like, I mean, I was good at it, but I was just dying.

4:40

Like, you know, like, nothing was, my body

4:43

was just not functioning as it should. It was very

4:45

hard to walk five minutes without being in extreme

4:47

pain and stuff like that. I just would just

4:49

keep working and whatever, work through

4:51

it. Until one day I basically woke

4:53

up and just went. Bro, you got to fix

4:55

this now. You got to fix it now. What

4:58

was the impetus to that? They just,

5:00

I just think it was just the last straw. I just

5:02

woke up one day and I just felt just horrible.

5:04

And I was like, I can't keep living

5:06

this way. I just can't do it anymore.

5:09

So I kind of felt like I was kind of having like

5:11

a mini mental breakdown and I moved across

5:13

the country. I moved to Darwin

5:15

and, uh, just focused on my health. Yeah, I closed

5:18

my company and just moved to Darwin. What was your company? I

5:20

had an advertising company called KI Advertising.

5:22

That's why you're so good at this thing. Yeah, well, it was

5:24

kind of the precursor to this sort of stuff.

5:27

Yeah. A reason for everything.

5:29

Exactly.

5:29

I got a lot of skill and experience back then

5:31

doing that. I didn't actually do any of the videos myself

5:34

back then. I just ran all the scripts and stuff and

5:36

then had videographers and editors and stuff like

5:38

that. And then I learned to do it myself eventually.

5:40

Okay. Yeah. But when

5:42

I focused on my health, I didn't even think

5:44

I was going to become like, you know A healthy

5:47

lifestyle advocate. I was just like doing it and

5:49

you know people are saying bro what you're doing is crazy and

5:51

i'm like, what do you mean you lost 40

5:53

kilos, bro, and i'm like So

5:56

and they're like it's really inspiring Oh,

5:59

is it? Oh, okay. All

6:01

right. I better make an instagram channel. I should do

6:03

something about that Yeah, and like

6:05

then my business mind kicked back in

6:11

That kind of answers my next question

6:14

and the one afterwards, which is lovely. The

6:16

next question is going to be what, what was your biggest

6:18

challenge? Um, and how did you overcome

6:21

it? And it seems that that was probably

6:23

a big challenge having a one in three million

6:26

disease. And

6:28

then being very successful, it would seem

6:31

successful, but I won't assume

6:33

the answer. Cause that would be really bad.

6:36

What has been your biggest

6:37

challenge? My biggest challenge,

6:39

um, I want to say probably my biggest challenge

6:41

was coming to terms with my disability

6:44

as such. So coming to terms with it in a sense

6:46

of Like going, I have to

6:48

own this. Like I used to just like, I used

6:50

to drift cars and stuff as well. Right. So people

6:52

that I knew, people didn't even know, they

6:54

just like, because they never saw my leg braces, they didn't know

6:56

I was drifting with leg braces. Like they

6:58

would have been like, Whoa, that's crazy now.

7:01

They don't even think of it like that. I was just like, I'm just doing

7:03

it, man. I just do whatever. How did that happen? Oh, it

7:05

was a drifting accident. So now I have to wear leg braces. It's

7:07

actually funny you say that because I used to lie

7:09

to anyone who would ask me, like, bro, what's wrong with you? I seen you have

7:11

a limp. And I'd be like. Yeah, I was actually in a quad

7:13

bike accident when I was younger, because I was so ashamed

7:16

of being paired up with it. Yeah. Cause

7:18

that's cool. Yeah, exactly. That's like, that's like,

7:20

Oh bro, you messed up. Whatever. Now

7:22

you live with it. But then being born with it isn't as

7:24

cool. You know what I mean? So it just kind of buffered

7:26

me a little bit. Wow.

7:27

People are weird, man. I know. Me too. Yeah.

7:30

Included. I'm a person. I'm equally

7:32

weird. Bloody hell. And was

7:34

that, can you come into terms of that part, was when

7:37

you showed the world?

7:38

Um, basically that was me

7:40

just going, you know what, I'm not doing another summer

7:42

in long pants. I'm just not doing

7:44

it. So the aircon broke, you're in, going

7:47

to Darwin, it's hot there. Yeah, yeah. Okay,

7:49

fair play. It kind of got like that, yeah. So how was it that you overcame

7:52

that then, this long life of,

7:54

Um, hiding from people and being

7:56

unhappy with that challenge, I suppose, obviously,

7:59

I think it all came in for the, um,

8:01

the change to become healthy. I was

8:03

like, once I became healthy, I felt way less ashamed

8:05

of myself as a person. I was like, okay,

8:07

I'm looking good. I want

8:10

this, like, you know what I mean? And like

8:12

pants can only take you so far. So I'm like,

8:14

you know, I need to start wearing shorts and stuff like

8:16

that. And then when I started to, I'm like, I'm okay.

8:20

And then I just kind of like I put up a post

8:22

and it got like a heap of likes like on Facebook or something

8:24

when I used to use Facebook and yeah,

8:26

I was like, okay, we're on here. This

8:28

doesn't feel so bad. Wow.

8:30

Yeah. So you could hide your legs

8:32

with pants, right? But you said it

8:34

affects your hands as well. Yeah. And

8:37

now possibly visible. Yeah. But

8:39

how did you hide that then? You can't wear gloves

8:41

all the time, could you? Well, it was super

8:43

easy to... Pretty much just have

8:45

your hands always away or hands together

8:47

or whatever like that, like a lot of the time, like it's

8:49

like, you're doing something in busy. Yeah, yeah,

8:51

yeah. If you see the legs, it's then

8:54

easier to spot the hands, but if you don't see the legs,

8:56

you know, you're not really looking for a problem. If a dude,

8:58

you know, like me, kind of like, just kind

9:00

of hiding it. You're not, you're not kind

9:03

of looking for it. I saw a

9:04

documentary of Michael J. Fox and

9:06

as his disability was getting

9:08

stronger, he would always have something

9:10

in his hand, a newspaper. Some pills

9:13

that his character would take, but really it was

9:15

for him, pizza, whatever it was.

9:17

Mm-hmm. just to hide that

9:18

fact. Mm-hmm. I'm constantly doing this, like

9:20

always just peeling my hands back, just constantly

9:22

straight. And is that

9:24

like beneficial? It feel good as

9:25

well? It feels really beneficial, yeah. To keep them

9:28

not wanting to curl over. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. And

9:30

so then at that time too, if I'm just like doing that,

9:32

like it just doesn't like too much. People just think

9:34

you

9:34

are just doing, doing just my

9:36

hands. It's a d h, adhd, whatever, you know? I mean, there's

9:38

plenty of ways you can mask things if you want to. Yeah.

9:40

Mm-hmm.

9:41

Wow, that is quite the challenge.

9:43

I can imagine it has been. Yeah.

9:49

And, and what's been your

9:51

biggest

9:51

success? Every day is a success

9:53

really in my mind, every day I get to wake up

9:55

is a fantastic success. That's like

9:57

literally what keeps me driven is

9:59

every single day because I'm like so

10:01

grateful I get another day. So

10:04

I would say my biggest success is being

10:06

alive as corny or lame as that may sound

10:08

but I love being alive Maybe

10:10

that should be more

10:11

people's biggest success. It could be

10:13

I hope it is. Yeah, but you did say

10:15

the weight loss as well

10:16

Yeah, the weight

10:17

loss was probably goes a long way to

10:19

feeling grateful,

10:19

right? Yeah. Yeah Yeah, I

10:22

mean it was the evolution of myself when I began

10:24

to lose the weight So it would be my biggest success

10:26

is reinventing myself as a person Being

10:29

grateful for things, being respectful for things,

10:31

having integrity, building all this

10:33

up as a person, not saying I was a crappy

10:35

person before, but I'm 10 times the person I was

10:37

before, since getting fit.

10:39

Fitter, healthier, and

10:42

your outlook, and potentially how you treat

10:44

other people? I don't know, your

10:45

thought process? A hundred percent, everything changed.

10:47

Um, once the gratitude sat in and everything,

10:50

it was just like, just everything

10:52

changes, everything. You know, before,

10:54

you know, people take a lot of things for granted. I took everything

10:56

for granted. Like, even though, You know,

10:58

you may look at me as a perspective is not

11:01

good, you know, like I wasn't born normal

11:03

as such But it's still so grateful to be here

11:05

man. Like it's huge huge being

11:07

here.

11:08

I think that might be Oftentimes

11:11

more the people that have these challenges

11:14

Yeah end up being more grateful and

11:16

you have a Yeah.

11:20

Yeah. Exactly. They have their own

11:22

challenges, obviously. Of course. Of

11:24

course. Everybody has, everybody wears leg braces,

11:26

man. They're just some you can't see. Oh,

11:29

now that's got to be a tagline somewhere, isn't it?

11:32

At the bottom of your post. Yeah. On this

11:34

maybe. For sure. Do it. All right. and

11:38

so how, how did you

11:40

get to that, uh, where you are

11:42

now of daily

11:45

gratitude and feeling, wow, I'm alive. Like,

11:47

I know why. Yeah. Because I, I can't imagine anyone. Well, I'm

11:50

trying to do that too. I didn't, but yeah, I'm

11:52

trying maybe not to your level. Yeah, but

11:55

how do you do that? You wake up and you're like, oh my

11:57

God, another

11:57

day. Well, pretty much I, I wake

12:00

up at 4 55 every day. Um,

12:02

whether it be with the alarm or not, most days without

12:04

the alarm, but the second I open my

12:06

eyes, I'm just like. It just kind of sets

12:08

over me. I'm like, all right, here we go again. All right. And

12:11

it's kind of like, I don't know, you can kind of picture

12:13

it like an amusement park. You have no idea what like rides

12:15

you're gonna be going on today. It could be good and bad.

12:17

You don't know, but it's still exciting. I'm

12:20

excited every day when I get up. Does that come

12:22

from a book that you've read or a person

12:24

that you listen to, a podcast that you listen to? Maybe this one.

12:27

Um, or it was just in

12:29

you?

12:30

Just in me, I think, yeah. Wow. Like, I, I,

12:32

I watch, like I watch influential, inspirational

12:35

people and stuff online. Um, like

12:37

I love David Goggins and stuff like that. I love everything he's

12:39

about, like he just, he really does push me to be better.

12:41

Uh, but um, when it comes to people asking me, like, who's

12:43

your biggest inspiration, for example, I,

12:46

I kind of just say I back myself on that. Like

12:48

I have to, I have to back myself every day.

12:50

Like, you know, I'm like, I'm the one that's getting me up. I'm

12:52

the one that's making me do those things. I'm the one

12:54

staying disciplined. So I look up to those

12:57

people that are doing the same thing as me, but I, I have

12:59

to back myself on that one. Wow. Are you going to

13:01

run

13:01

a hundred K's? David

13:03

Goggins will be upset.

13:05

I might have to now.

13:08

No way. He can shout at me all he likes, but I'm

13:10

not running a hundred. He can carry the boats. Yeah.

13:13

But he is, you know, I'm incredibly

13:16

inspirational in that regard. Is

13:21

this a business? This inspirational thing is

13:23

okay. So how, how

13:26

does this business? Help

13:28

people, of course I can put two and

13:30

two together and kind of work out that you're inspiring people, but

13:32

in your words, how does your brand

13:34

and your business help people? Let's

13:37

say living on the Gold Coast, but potentially around

13:39

the world, right? We are on Instagram.

13:41

Well, it's all in the buildup of my plan

13:43

as such, I guess. But, um, at the

13:45

moment I post videos for free with

13:47

knowledge and information of my life. So pretty

13:49

much things I overcome. Um, also

13:52

like motivational type things that may help other

13:54

people also like helpful things in

13:56

regards to food and health, just kind of like tips

13:58

here and there, things I've learned along the way that I

14:00

think that could benefit other people. And

14:02

then in the terms of like monetizing it, I

14:04

have a few brand sponsors, which then

14:06

pay me, you know, from selling stuff for them.

14:09

Sure. I then connect with other big companies

14:11

as well. Do videos for them, once off videos,

14:13

stuff like that, that gets me paid as well. Um,

14:17

And I, yeah, I'm working

14:19

closely with companies with products mainly, is the,

14:22

mainly where I'm at. Do you need Nissan to come on board?

14:24

Oh mate, imagine.

14:26

Imagine. So what

14:28

are you, he says he got companies and

14:31

then it was something else, but I rudely

14:32

interrupted you. No, that's fine. So I, um,

14:35

I, the things I'll be doing too, I'll be doing like paid

14:37

series as well. So on Tik TOK, you can actually

14:39

do series. So I'll be doing like weight

14:42

loss series, like how to lose weight, just things

14:44

I've learned, whether how to meditate, how to utilize

14:46

breath work, there'll be a series like that coming, which

14:48

will generate me more income. I generate

14:50

money from my Tik TOK live streams as well. So

14:53

I have a subscription. Platform on there.

14:55

Basically they can subscribe to the live. I give back

14:57

free gifts and stuff for them supporting me So

15:00

i'll be giving away pre workouts and supplements like

15:02

that But yeah, pretty much the main

15:04

way I make money is connecting with bigger

15:06

businesses them paying me to do videos with

15:08

them I'm currently working. I have a trial

15:10

with a very big company right now that I can't

15:13

Um, name, but if

15:15

it all goes well, this could be the absolute

15:17

financial game changer for me ever. Wow.

15:20

Yeah. So no, no

15:21

doubt it will

15:21

happen, mate. Everybody out there manifested for me. It's

15:24

already

15:24

done. Yeah. There you go. Fantastic.

15:27

Yeah. How cool is that? And a lot

15:30

of people will possibly see

15:32

your story and particularly when this big company

15:34

comes on board. Right. No doubt it will. Yeah.

15:36

And then you, your life has

15:38

changed. My life will change. My life

15:40

will change. Forever and I will change many

15:42

lives from this situation people will see

15:44

that Oh 100

15:45

like and they'll be jealous because you've got all that money.

15:48

So some people you know what they're gonna do They're gonna go.

15:50

Oh my god, this guy just just hit it lucky

15:52

and they just don't look at the last 35

15:54

years. 30 odd years. Yeah.

15:56

Of just grinding dodgy legs and all

15:58

that bother. Mm-hmm. And people wouldn't go through

16:01

that, would they? No. They wouldn't go through your life to get what you've

16:03

got? Well, that's potentially,

16:04

yeah. That's not some

16:05

may. Maybe they would. Yeah. I don't, who should

16:08

I judge what people would do? Um,

16:10

but I am a mid lady English man, so

16:12

I will judge. Yeah. judge. All you'd like

16:14

Oh my God. Anyway. Um,

16:18

How about people living on the Gold

16:20

Coast, and I guess around the world again, how can

16:22

they help your brand?

16:24

Um, I guess just following my socials,

16:26

I guess, really just supporting me in what I do, like

16:28

every like, comment, share and all that kind of helps me

16:31

grow, you know, on the whole, like, um,

16:33

also if there's any sort of events that I could come to,

16:35

I'd love to be coming to any sort of Gold Coast community type

16:37

events. Um, I do want to get into public

16:39

speaking and stuff like that. I really want to speak

16:41

to the younger generation, especially kids with disabilities.

16:44

Um, I want to change their mindset from an early age.

16:46

I never had the problem with my mindset from an early

16:48

age. I was always told, no, do

16:50

it. Like, just give it a shot. Doesn't matter what it

16:53

is. Thank you. And I want other kids

16:55

to grow with that mindset because it will help

16:57

them develop. Huge thing.

17:00

Very cool for me. Very, very close to my heart.

17:02

So like, and subscribe and boost

17:04

the algorithm to my life. Come on,

17:06

TikTok, Instagram, all that

17:08

sort of stuff.

17:09

Come on, everything. I feel almost like an influencer

17:11

myself, Kyle, just by being in your presence.

17:13

I am fantastic. Yeah, that's exactly

17:16

right. Now,

17:19

what do you wish you'd known when you were starting

17:21

out? Ooh,

17:23

I'd say this business or. Like

17:25

starting out what?

17:26

I guess the main one is this, uh,

17:28

new push on social, but it's

17:31

your story, so it could be wherever

17:33

you want to go. How far back?

17:35

Um, I guess I wish I knew more about

17:37

Um, uh, being healthier sooner, because it's probably,

17:40

if you were going to ask me what my biggest regret was, and I

17:42

don't have regrets, but this is like

17:44

my, one of my biggest things is not looking after my health sooner.

17:47

So I wish I knew more about it. I wish I understood

17:49

it better, which is why I really like to push

17:51

out the tips and things I'm learning

17:53

and have learned over the years. Because if someone

17:55

reads or watches something I've done and

17:58

they go, that then changes their life and they get healthier,

18:00

that to me is a win. I love that. I

18:02

never had anyone I watched. Enough

18:05

to gave me the education to start losing weight

18:07

and start looking after myself Like, you know people

18:09

just think eating less is going to be healthier and stuff.

18:11

They don't they don't know the intricacies

18:13

See one piece of KFC. Yeah. Yeah Exactly,

18:16

you know

18:17

stuff like that. It's just yeah, there's so

18:19

much out there and it's so complicated and so

18:21

saturated out there for people I like to simplify

18:23

it I like to make it so much easier for them

18:25

because it was never easy for me. It took me my whole

18:28

life to figure it out

18:29

very cool, man, very cool You

18:35

are full of energy, we

18:38

could go a million miles an hour it seems, from

18:41

the moment I met you outside it's just, let's

18:43

go, um, what

18:45

is it that makes you feel inspired, or

18:48

like your best self? I know you said you wake up every day

18:50

and you feel great, it's like a theme park, what

18:52

is it?

18:53

Um, well, just hitting my

18:55

goals, I guess, like, like win the

18:57

day straight away by starting out, like I start

18:59

my day with a 45 minute walk every day. So

19:02

knowing if I get that in, at least I know how my

19:04

fitness didn't tune to some extent, if

19:06

I don't manage to get the gym, depending on how busy

19:08

my day is. I do hit the gym four to five days a week

19:11

at the moment. So it's just that, you know,

19:13

as long as you can win the day straight off the bat, that is

19:15

one of the things that keeps me going. Like, you know, you need to.

19:18

You just need to have that win straight away, you

19:20

know, and that, that walk really does that, you know,

19:22

no podcast, no music, just your own thoughts.

19:24

And then I track my notes when I do it. It's really

19:27

like a really good way to start the day. Just that

19:29

in

19:29

nature, wherever

19:30

it might be. I actually walked to movie world every

19:32

morning because I live right next to it. Yeah,

19:35

right. Fantastic. Yeah. Okay.

19:37

So that walk, that sort of gets the juices

19:40

flowing, let's say, and you've, you've ticked the

19:42

box as well. Yeah,

19:43

feel good endorphins come from that straight away. And

19:45

that's the thing I guess that people might not understand

19:47

that haven't got fit and healthy yet. They don't

19:49

understand that feel good chemical. It's not,

19:51

it's not about how you look. It's about how you feel

19:54

and you'll feel so good after it, even though

19:56

it's so, seems so insignificant,

19:58

but it's not.

19:59

Is that around five o'clock in the morning you get that walk in?

20:01

Yeah.

20:01

Yeah. Great time. Between five and six. Yeah. Fantastic.

20:05

Thank God for my dog. He's at the door waking

20:07

me up. Let's go out and he doesn't

20:09

always get there that time Yeah, I will admit Kyle.

20:12

I'm not out. I'm not trying to beat you. No,

20:14

they're at 5 in the morning sometimes, but

20:16

really yeah and

20:19

what would be for the people

20:21

that maybe they're not, you

20:24

know in a real bad spot hopefully

20:26

they're not but they'd like to take positive

20:28

action and More

20:31

control of their life and maybe start to get fit

20:33

or do whatever it is to move in the right direction

20:36

What would be a success strategy

20:38

habit or tip that you could share with those people? It's

20:41

actually so easy I love

20:43

this question. I love this question. So

20:45

One problem I always faced is

20:47

I always bite off more than I can chew. I

20:49

will always dive in no deep so fast and

20:54

I always I always ended up failing because

20:56

I went in too hard too fast So

21:01

if you're out there listening and you want to start

21:03

getting fit and healthy, well, it

21:05

starts with the tiny little change on

21:07

day one, don't, don't start Monday

21:10

if it's, you know, whatever day January

21:14

1st, January 1st, you start

21:16

today and you're like, Oh, but that seems overwhelming. I

21:18

wanted to get KFC today or whatever. It

21:21

doesn't matter on a Tuesday when it's special,

21:23

it could be as simple as go for a five minute

21:25

walk on that day. One. Go for a five

21:27

minute walk, come back, have that sense of

21:30

accomplishment, and then have yourself a little notepad

21:32

and be like, you know what, I'm going to try and do one five

21:34

minute walk a day, right? Maybe,

21:36

maybe three five minute walks a week actually, let's not overcomplicate

21:39

it, let's make it simpler, right? Once you check

21:41

those off, you're going to be like, oh, that

21:43

feels alright, and you might just start doing it more,

21:45

maybe you'll increase it to ten, so on and so forth.

21:48

But then, you know, maybe you're eating KFC

21:50

seven times a week, have it six.

21:53

Like that's the incremental changes

21:55

that will make you a better, healthier person. Not

21:58

i'm starting this crash diet on monday

22:00

and i'm gonna go to the gym seven days a week

22:02

and I'm not eating chocolate anymore.

22:04

And do you think that's gonna work? That's a terrible

22:06

rule. Don't eat chocolate anymore I've failed

22:08

that more times than I care to imagine

22:11

But you know what? I mean people got to relate to that. I

22:13

know I know that's me every time boom fall in

22:15

And then fail

22:16

do you still do that now in some things?

22:19

I put on video let's do all of it pull

22:21

myself up now. I pull myself up

22:23

most of the time I mean i'm human. I may still

22:25

do it here and there um, but

22:27

I most of the time pull myself up and go, bro, relax,

22:31

do it this way. And then you're like, Oh God,

22:33

that makes so much more sense. Take your own advice. Way more chance of success.

22:35

Listen to your own podcast. Read your own book. Yeah, for

22:37

real. Wow.

22:40

I want to go drifting with you. Yeah, let's

22:43

go. I've never been drifting. Oh, mate. Um,

22:45

I did have a skyline. Yeah, you did. It wasn't

22:47

the core. It said skyline on it. Okay.

22:50

But it was a four door automatic skyline. It's still

22:52

cool. Yeah, that's right. The name is cool.

22:54

But I've never been drifting. I would love to go drifting. Oh, we

22:56

will go. Let's put that out there. We will go. Not

22:59

so subtle hint. We will go. Not

23:01

a hint at all, was it? Anyway, Kyle,

23:06

23:09

Hmm. Um. The

23:11

23:27

Can you share

23:28

a surprise. Yeah. So stuff like that. I

24:14

want to go to Thailand. I'd love to go to Thailand for a trip

24:16

and just focus on my fitness for like a couple of

24:18

weeks straight. I know I focus on it here, but I mean,

24:20

like really dial it in, and

24:22

you can do that much cheaper there than you can here.

24:24

Sure.

24:25

Yeah. You mean get other experts in?

24:28

Coaches for everything I do and I want to have all the best

24:30

24:53

america with cntx? It's quite

24:54

25:01

one in three million. Yeah Blimey,

25:05

1. I think it is something unbelievable.

25:12

Kyle I've only got a few

25:14

left because there's, you go a million miles an hour.

25:16

I'm so sorry. No, not, don't be sorry. When

25:18

I'm editing podcast, like I speak generally

25:21

quite slowly interviewing people and

25:24

I have to put it on like double speed. Oh,

25:27

really? Yeah. Cause I'm so bloody slow. So

25:29

then I listen to them like one and a

25:31

half or two speed as well. Anyway, when I listened

25:33

to podcasts, um, so it's good. Cause

25:35

you speak at double speed, so I

25:37

love it. Potentially the coffee. Maybe,

25:40

maybe. Um, Kyle,

25:42

what did your childhood smell like?

25:45

Okay, what did it smell like? Mm. Mm,

25:48

okay. Can you

25:50

give me an example of somehow someone else has answered

25:52

this?

25:53

Yeah. Often times it would

25:55

be things like cut grass or

25:57

roast dinners. Uh, one was

26:00

salt water and petrol. Mm

26:02

hmm. Okay.

26:04

The other one was motorbikes. You

26:07

know that the smell of yeah, whatever

26:09

it was. Mm hmm. I get petrol again. I suppose

26:11

I think somebody said cigarettes and petrol

26:14

Richard's a dangerous combination and probably

26:16

not a good one for your childhood, but

26:18

you want together? No, I guess not Those

26:22

sorts of things.

26:22

Okay, definitely definitely petrol.

26:25

I did a lot of stuff like that when I was a kid as well

26:27

I was always in like sprint

26:30

cars like soaping across dirt sprint cars, quad bikes

26:32

stuff like that when I was a kid, Exactly.

26:36

Exactly. That's why the story checks out as

26:38

well. Festival circle. Yeah. You

26:41

know, if you're going to make a lie, it's got to, it's got to work.

26:45

That's why I'm a terrible liar now. So petrol.

26:47

Racing cars, quad bikes,

26:50

these sorts of things. I was out in nature quite a lot. I

26:52

was very, like, explorative. I used to ride horses.

26:56

So yeah, like animals. Does it smell

26:58

like animals? What else have we got? There's

27:00

quite a few smells mate. Yeah, well there's so many

27:02

of them. It's like, oh, horse

27:05

poo. Yeah, cause I used to pick that

27:07

up and sell it. Um. I

27:10

sell it out front of my house, yeah. You didn't have a

27:12

lemonade stand, you had a horse

27:14

poo stand. Dead set. How

27:16

much horse p

27:16

28:05

what's your favorite thing to do in Helens

'cause there's not, I mean, there is things to

28:13

do there, I guess, but walking to Movie World is pretty cool.

28:16

Yeah, fantastic. Testing them all in the morning, it's kind of cool.

28:19

They're testing the rides and you get to see them, yeah, right.

28:21

And going around and stuff. Fantastic.

28:23

Yep. And, as you've

28:26

caffeinated yourself, to

28:29

a high degree, what would be your favorite

28:31

28:38

nude or bear like grr, growl? Bear like

28:41

29:06

sort of thing. I had a brisket sandwich the other day. Oh don't.

29:09

Oh mate, oh. And it's not

29:11

29:13

overnight. It's, oh, mate.

29:19

Lucky we're going to a restaurant after this, so. Oh, brilliant.

I think that's who's last guest put cafe.

29:25

Mm hmm. Restaurant. How about restaurant?

29:29

Okay, that's gonna take a minute. Oh dear. I'm quite

29:31

the foodie, so I'm just gonna like...

29:33

Well, you don't have to. If you don't have a favourite restaurant, I

29:35

don't

29:35

mind. I was just like, where's the best food

29:37

experience I've had recently is probably the best way

29:39

I can do it. I went to Galaxies here in

29:41

Southport a little while ago and it was pretty

29:44

good. Serving sizes I wasn't happy with,

29:46

I'm quite a big eater even though I'm little. No. And

29:48

yeah, I

29:48

know. Going on your past history, I don't believe

29:50

you and I still eat like

29:51

I did a lot, but healthily, but yeah,

29:54

healthily and I trained so much I can

29:56

offset little bit. Okay.

29:57

Of course galaxies.

29:59

Yeah. Galaxy seafood. It was, yeah, it was

30:01

Okay. Brazilian barbecue, second in

30:05

surface paradise. That was unreal. And I ate, My

30:07

body weight in food, and then I had

30:24

Uh, what's your favorite thing about the Gold Coast?

30:26

Uh, the atmosphere, the energy. That's the quickest,

30:29

easiest response I can give because when I moved up

30:31

here six months ago, I.

30:34

Walking through surfers just

30:36

feel so energised

30:38

and want to walk more and want to be more active. And there's

30:40

people walking everywhere and everyone's got a coffee.

30:43

I've never had so many social interactions that

30:45

I have in the street in Gold Coast. They just

30:47

walk up and they're like, hey, how you going? I'm like, oh yeah,

30:49

30:59

now because I've been in for 23 years On

31:02

the gold coast

31:03

like 46 times longer than me

31:07

I don't know you you're a math genius.

31:09

31:11

was pretty easy I suppose it was pretty is only

31:13

double wasn't it? Yeah, good god. Yeah

31:15

edit that bit out. Yeah, let's edit it off the live

31:18

Please my terrible math that you did not

31:21

hear it That's probably the heart Um,

31:27

do you have any, a favorite podcast you

31:29

just, you say you listen to those, you read

31:31

and all that sort of stuff, but what about a podcast? Maybe you don't,

31:34

and I will edit that out.

31:36

I, um, I love the Rogan podcast. I

31:39

do. Yeah, I do. I love the Rogan podcast.

31:41

I just like, I really respect Joe

31:43

Rogan and everything he says. And, um,

31:45

I just really like that he brings people on and he's just

31:47

so blunt. You know, it's not like

31:50

I care about what you're going to say back to

31:52

me. He just goes. And just unloads it.

31:54

Yeah. This is, this is what I think.

31:55

Yeah. Here you go. Take it or leave it. And that

31:57

I love don't like it.

31:58

I'm gonna shoot an elk and

32:01

eat it in front of you. Yeah,

32:02

exactly. And I like that. I love the

32:04

authenticity behind it. You know,

32:07

and this is a question from, uh,

32:09

the previous guest, I think, but I may be

32:12

so lazy that it's the same question for the last three people.

32:14

Mm-hmm. Uh, but it's my podcast and I can cry

32:16

if I want to. You can do whatever you want. Exactly right. Um,

32:19

what would be, well, I think it's quite, It's

32:21

apt for you. What is one

32:23

piece of advice you would give your 20

32:25

year

32:25

old self? 20 year old.

32:27

So, uh, definitely it would be bro. Start

32:30

looking into your health right now And

32:32

that would be the most beneficial you could do

32:34

that beneficial thing you could do for your future,

32:37

bro Don't do it 12 years later Do

32:40

you

32:40

think 20 year old you would listen to yourself?

32:42

Oh, he was a brat man. So probably not probably

32:44

not but I could try I could try.

32:47

Maybe, cause he sees how cool you

32:49

are now and what he's done. Oh

32:51

bro, like you're doing all right. Yeah. If

32:53

you listen, you'll be 10 times the person by then.

32:55

Oh, okay. That sounds

32:56

good. Okay. I will do it selfishly or whatever.

32:58

It doesn't matter. Does it mate? That's,

33:01

that's my question. So I feel a bit dizzy.

33:03

Yeah.

33:04

I'm sorry. I do move at the

33:05

speed of light. It's good. No, as it should

33:07
