I think you could probably go back and track the stages of grief, probably that is what I went through. But I think if you do it right, you end up at acceptance. And that's where I ended up. And that's not to say that I've fully accepted the idea that the golden toad is extinct. Personally, I do still hold out hope that it could still be out there in those forests." - Trevor Ritland This conversation is with Trevor Ritland, who—along with his twin brother Kyle—authored The Golden Toad . The book chronicles their remarkable journey into Costa Rica’s cloud forest, once home to hundreds of brilliant golden toads that would emerge for just a few weeks each year—until, one day, they vanished without a trace. What began as a search for a lost species soon became something much more profound: a confrontation with ecological grief, a meditation on hope, and a powerful call to protect the natural world while we still can.

In this episode, we explore what truly sets high performers apart. It's not just their ambition or discipline, but their ability to consistently prioritise their health, even when their schedules are packed. Successful people understand that there’s no value in building a thriving business if it comes at the cost of their well-being. From lifting weights to walking in nature, meditating, or simply creating space for mental clarity, these habits are non-negotiable. We break down why movement and recovery are essential tools for long-term performance and why outdated advice that tells you to sacrifice your health for success needs to be left behind. This is how high achievers really do it. For the full episode, Ep 140 – 8 Successful Habits of High Achievers, click here.

Ep 231- Rest Days Aren't Lazy Days 10:45

19 days ago10:45

10:45

In this rewind episode, we’re diving into something that often gets overlooked but plays a huge role in your progress: rest. Whether you’re an athlete, someone deep into their training routine, or just trying to stay consistent, rest isn’t something you earn after working hard. It’s a crucial part of the process. When we ignore the signals our body gives us and keep pushing just to stay on track, it often leads to burnout, fatigue, or the feeling of going backwards. This chat is your reminder that if your body is asking for rest, it's not being lazy. It's being smart. There’s a difference between active recovery and truly switching off, and both have value. The key is learning to tune in and listen to what your body actually needs, rather than what your plan says or what you feel pressured to do. If today is your rest day, let it be one. Take the break, recharge properly, and trust that real progress comes from both the work and the recovery.
