- I don't know if I can be on a podcast with this song. ♪ Love is just one thing I need ♪ - This is the biggest song for Christmas songs. - The worst. At least play like "How to Make Gravy", it's Australia's greatest Christmas song of all time. - Not the 21st of December anymore. - Yeah, I know. Well, we should have done this yesterday. - We should have done this yesterday. - Then we could have played "How to Make Gravy". ♪ Love is just one thing I need ♪ - All of Mariah Carey's songs, this is probably the best drop ever.
- But it's not even her own song. How can you be famous for a Christmas carol that you didn't even write? - After your 10th birthday. ♪ I want a life for Christmas ♪ ♪ There is just one thing I need ♪ - All right guys, we are back for the second year, second year running the annual Christmas podcast. Pulsi's still his old wet blanket self. We have Tommy T back, we have Coop back. We had a couple of-- - Late scratchings. - Late scratchings, Kayden, KP, Jess, Jess as well. All of them are-- - Tiana said she'd come and then she cowered out, so let that be known.
- That did happen. - She's a victim. - A minute that, a minute that. - She's been pointing at everyone, so. Pointing is the victim's, victim's logo. - I'm happy to carry on the title of Virtus's resident Grinch as well, so I'll take that on board. - Pulsi's been absolutely no fun at all this Christmas. - Look, the Grinch didn't hate Christmas. The Grinch hated people, which is absolutely fair. - Why do you hate people, Puls? - I don't hate people. - Just hate certain people, nah, no. - No. - Fair, fair, absolutely fair. - So, format for the next hour, we're calling this the Christmas Hour of Power.
We're going to have a little chat. We'll introduce ourselves. You guys can get to know us a little bit if you don't already. If you got to this point and you're actually listening, I shouldn't even notice. - Well done, 'cause the first three minutes has been riveting. - Thanks for getting this far. - Congratulations. - We're gonna have a little bit of a reflection, a little bit of a look back on the year that was 2018, and we'll talk a little bit about how we're feeling and then look forward to next year, what the plan is, what we want to achieve, all of the cool shit we want to happen.
We have our gins at the ready, so if there's a bit of a jingle, bit of a ice against glass, bit of a clinking. - First of all, have you heard the story about why you clink glasses with your gins? - I didn't hear any more of this. First of all, second of all. - I haven't heard of all until someone. I haven't heard the story. Tell me. - Second of all, I'll tell you later. (laughing) - So we're gonna go around the circle, we're gonna introduce ourselves. First up, Jared Polter. - Well, you just introduced me, but I am Jared Polter, Cooee Rupp's resident hipster, self-proclaimed, two-time Virtus Beston Award winner.
- Congratulations. - Thank you, and hold the record for watching the most hours of the Food Network, concurrently. Thank you. - Really? (laughing) - Gins is impressive. - Yeah, it's all of that. - Yeah. - Yeah, that's exceptional. - Good luck, Coop. - Yeah, how do I follow that? - Slum, Cooper. Small hands, big slice. (laughing) - It's all of the small hands. - Virtus head of marketing, performance coach. Holds the place up. - Bricks and water are the joint. - That's it. - Welcome. (laughing) - My little brother just... (coughing) - Starting line up, five foot nothing.
Currently unemployed and haven't got much else going for. That's really sad. - Tinder babies. - Tinder babies. Thanks, Google. - That's a new thing. - Tommy T, turn gray things brown, current. (laughing) And current Virtus for wheelchair. - Yeah, I like that. - Co-current Virtus for world champ, Al Wallace, reporting for duty. I was a late ring in for today's episode, which is pretty exciting. I kind of get to talk on one of these things. I'm very, very much... - Don't be nervous. - Yeah, I'm just trying to be excited rather than nervous. - The microphone's not there.
- No, it's, yes. - We're just having a conversation. - No, we are just having a conversation. I guess I'm a peaceful warrior looking to make my mark on the world. - Through our education, enlightenment and of course, Devas. That's me. Pulsing, first question for you. - Oh, geez. Yes. - What are you proud of? - What am I proud of? - And that's with the... - As in what am I proud of is this year, 2018. - Obviously it's a transcendence of 2017 and 2016. - Funnily enough, I think I sat here 12 months ago and said I was proud of the fact that I'd brought a block of land.
That didn't really transpire, but throughout this 12 months I went on to buy a house, which I'm pretty proud of. - Atta boy. - There we go. And I was able to do that with my lovely partner Jess and moved into our first home. Shout out bell. She doesn't listen, so it's okay. - Oh yeah. (laughing) - So in lieu of the shout out bell today, we have the no button. - No, no, no, no, no, no. - And the yes button. - Yes! - Carry on. - Yeah, very good. Yeah, so that's something I'm
proud of and over this summer holiday period, I think I'm really gonna enjoy the fact that we have our own space and we can have people around and being on school holidays is a massive bonus and being able to entertain, which was the whole idea of getting a house and yeah, so it's really exciting. - When do you mean? - I think we've almost been in for six months. So early January will be six months. So it's been a bit of an adjustment period to get used to the travel for work and there's always things that come up and make life a little difficult, but I think we've got it pointing in the right direction, which is good.
- I think we underestimate how much we can actually achieve and how much change is in a year. Like we look back at that kind of moment last year where we had this conversation and you were moving on a block of land and kind of excited about that and that was like a massive part of your existence at the time and now we look back and 12 months on. - It didn't transpire. - It didn't transpire, but shit worked out and got a probably better deal in the end. - I think in hindsight, I think
we've done better living where we are now and what we've got rather than having to go through the process of building and whatnot, just having learned more about that kind of industry and what's involved that way. Like I think I'm more happy with the decision each and every day moving forward, knowing what I know now. I'm like the world's worst handyman, so. - Hey, top two. - Yeah. - We are top two. - Yeah, it's the butt of family jokes actually. But yeah, we bought a lawnmower, that was pretty cool. One of those battery, Ryobi battery operated ones.
- Is it a job, is that a ride on? - No, it's not a ride on. (laughing) Imagine a battery operated ride on. - That'd be epic. (laughing) - I need a lot of batteries. 18 volt Ryobi, we might market this to Ryobi. (laughing) - As we roll through these, what are we proud of? I would like to give my two cents worth for each of you guys what I'm proud of for you. Because I think I've seen a significant amount of change and growth in all of you this year. And I think Pulsi, you
are like up there with ones that have not so much changed the most, but just had the most profound changes, especially with your mindset around training and food and consistency and rocking up. And most of that growth's probably come from tough times and hard times and being down the dumps or being a little unhappy with how things are going, but you've sold it on probably a better spot now than you were 12 months ago. - I think so, yeah. I think I'm happier and a bit more balanced about what I expect from myself, which it's a good point to be in.
Being able to ride the waves of life and being able to come out the other side a bit more balanced has been a big step in the right direction for me. So I thank you, Lachlan, for those kind words. - No, you're welcome. - No, you're good. - Kurt, what are you proud of? - Proud of? - The NAMM race. - I feel like it's been a big year. I feel like personally, professionally, I had a big year of study and I think getting that balance was tough for me the first six months. I think I managed it better in the second.
So I'm proud of how I was able to balance all these competing priorities throughout the year. I got the results I wanted at uni. - Yes. - I think I'm proud of what we're doing here and how we are overcoming certain challenges and obstacles throughout the year. It's been an up and down with everything that we've been pursuing. The journey's never linear. But I think we are on the direction, on the right direction to where we wanna go and how we've been able to map our way through the year has been pretty cool. Pretty cool to see and pretty cool to experience as a part of the team.
- Kind of gone through transformation with Virtus this year, a little bit of a reshuffle of what it was probably this time 12 months ago. - Definitely. - It's probably been a bit of a shift. Like from a Virtus family member's point of view, what have you seen the shift to have been? - For me? - Yeah. - I'm not a light has changed, but I think it's probably a lot of the back, what I've noticed is probably a bit of the back of our stuff that you guys are taking a bit more control of that and just dotting your I's and crossing your T's from that end.
- Turns out you've gotta be in actual business at some point. - Can't just be a group of people hanging out. - Yeah, which you don't wanna get to the point where everything's so rigid that you can't express the freedom and the creativity and the excitement, but definitely been a big learning curve this year in terms of all the back of house, behind the scenes things that go into running it and I'm still figuring it out and still feel like it, I'm chasing tail, but we're getting there. - I reckon that changes though. Like I think that's just part of owning a business and running a business.
- First year, didn't give a fuck. - Yeah. (laughing) - That was a mistake. - Yeah, that's a thing. - But the changes you've made hasn't had an impact on what you're doing out on the blue stuff behind this bit, which is really good. We've had a big focus on making things more efficient and easier for us, like tidying up all the systems and defining the processes and how new members and new family members will come in and the experience that they have here. We want that to be as seamless and as enjoyable as possible.
So hopefully all the work we've been doing on the behind the scenes will result in a-- - And they're all things that take more time initially. And that's the frustrating part. Like it feels like we're spinning the wheels a little bit, but understanding that it's a longer process. - Make it easier behind the scenes. It means you can spend more time out on the gym floor, probably where you want to be. - Doing what we are good at. - Exactly. - Speak for yourself. - I don't even work here, so I don't even know what I'm talking about.
(laughing) - So what about you, Brookie, what are you proud of? - Probably two things. I think in the last 12 months, I'm really proud of my intentionality around putting myself in uncomfortable situations because they're good for me. So I'm not someone that's naturally inclined to jump outside my comfort zone, but I'd say the last 12 months have been really significant in breaking out of that space. And it's been so fruitful, it's been the best. And then the second part of that is the ability to say no. - No! - Come on, that was an obvious opportunity for you there.
- No! - Yeah, so I think, yeah, again, probably someone that will say yes to things. I either shouldn't or because I don't want to let people down but this year's been really good for me in saying no to the things that aren't good for me or that don't set my soul on fire so I can say yes to the things that matter. - I like that, it's been a big year. - Big year. - And you guys can hear all that in about three weeks when Brooke's individual episode, which is like the Avengers spin-offs. - It's coming soon.
- Yeah, coming soon. - I'll cast it. - It comes to preview, a couple of weeks away. She cried twice. - That's not surprising though. - She's not crying, you're crying. No, my eyes are leaking. Crying is not a sign of weakness, it's a sign you've been too strong for too long. (laughing) So. - I'll just stinker. - Yeah. - I actually had a moment this week where I got quite emotional. - Did ya? - Yeah, so. Which is not uncommon for me, like I'm pretty in touch with my feelings and those kind of things
and I'm not scared to, not a typical man who bottles it all in or anything like that, but this week I found out that, no I'm not this week, but a couple of weeks ago one of my best mates from work's now leaving work. He's been accepted into the police academy and he's got his-- - Shout out to what? - Shout out to what? - I said, yes! - Yes, he likes saying yes a lot. So, and then I got, the school actually asked me to write a speech about his time at school and what
he's done and what he's achieved and I actually sat down and wrote that this week and it was, I was a blubbering mess there for a little while 'cause I think it was the first time I had actually thought about it and yeah, I was writing it in the staff room and people were coming in to check on me to see if I was okay, so yeah, I'm okay, but I'm just battling through this kind of thing. - What were the, I guess the main scaffolding in that speech and what are the things that you came back to 'cause obviously you guys have spent five, nine years together.
- Yeah, so he's been a constant ever since I started at work and we've carpooled probably 80% of all the days we've gone into work, which is a big thing. - A lot of days. - Yeah, a lot of days. Yeah, just around that and what he's been able to achieve and what he's offered to me as a friend and a colleague and those kinds of things too. I think, yeah, and just thinking about the fact that he won't be around for a lot of people would be, it's gonna be a momentous change within my workplace 'cause he's a bit of a, he's a bit of a cornerstone.
I think he helps out a lot of people or not intentionally, but I think people kind of go to him and drawn to him and stuff like that. So I think for a lot of people he would be constant in what they've done at work. So having him not there is going to be different. - It's pretty every year you're able to stop and reflect and write that speech. - Yeah, I almost got through it too without breaking down again. I got about seven of the seven eighths through before I choked up a little bit, but hey.
- And there's something to be said about acknowledging key people in your life. Like you can think awesome things about people, but there's something really cool about like verbalizing that to someone 'cause in our community and our society, it's not necessarily something that's done all that often, but like that can change your life. - Particularly male to male too. Like I don't know if I've ever like had that kind of conversation with someone. We probably don't do it enough. - Yeah, I think like you just said, you can think it and you can feel it, but unless you actually tell them, then they won't know.
There are other ways to express your gratitude for them and your love for them, but I think verbalizing it is actually. - Those things fade, like just because you feel it once. Well, just because you feel it all the time and say it once, it's almost not enough. You need to kind of like, don't have to tell them every day, but every couple of months just to remind someone why they're so important to you and why you respect and appreciate them so much. It's pretty hectic. I miss you Coop, what I'm proud of. - Big stars.
- Yeah. - The big stars. I'm proud of... Yeah, it's a thing. - It's sticking. - Spent my nickel, it says high school. - John was here, he should have said, "Coop, I went to high school with you, that was not your little thing." - So, no shoving. She's a victim of the counts, so. (laughing) Victim of the counts. - No, no, no. - Before this goes up the rails completely, I am very, very proud of your desire to learn and learn how to lead. I think leadership, to steal from one of the people we've been looking up to this year, leadership is a teachable skill.
So, you're someone that is trying to teach yourself that and I'm seeing it grow and blossom in this environment with our team. And yeah, I'm very excited for what's coming. So, good for you. - Thank you, I'm excited as well. - Yeah. And Brookie, I miss you too, sorry. - That's fine. - Y-E-S-S. - Probably unnecessary, that one. I'm very proud of how you have embraced this environment and the new community and the group of people and you've become such an integral part very quickly. I think you talked about it on your episode, about the old Brook and new Brook.
You'll constantly refer to the old Brook and saying that's what the old Brook would have done. This is what the new Brook does. And I remember when we first talked about why you joined Virtus. I didn't actually know this until like a month after you started, but you were so against joining us because you thought we were cold. Welcome to the inner circle. (laughing) - Come here. - You should have drank that gin though. (laughing) - That's no good for you. - Thanks. - I do remember Brook asking me probably what, six months, eight months before you actually ended up coming.
- Yeah. - You said, can I come on to a Saturday? You were gonna come and then you never turned up. And I felt, I was like, I know you're gonna love this when you get here. And turns out, eight months later or it was, and you finally did come. Could have turned you away. You were here like twice a day. - It's taken our first step. - Yeah. - And that's the thing, right? 'Cause I think this is part of what I'm proud of myself is like, can be really daunting stepping out of what you know and what's comfortable and into a community that does already feel so close knit.
Like I had a bunch of my friends who were already coming here and loved it, but it was just that, you know, jumping out of what was comfortable for me. Yeah, and getting involved and don't regret it. No regrets. - No regrets. - Tommy. - Regrets. - My boy. - I'm pretty proud of dealing with the highs and lows of this year and still trying to be successful and achieve professionally and personally. Yeah, it's been a very interesting year. Some really, really good stuff and then some not so good stuff, but throughout still trying to just remain professional and positive throughout everything is high.
You could just spiral and be a really negative person and go, what's the point? I'm the victim kind of thing. But it doesn't really help. And I think throughout still trying to remain that person in my community that I can help others, that's always a big part of things for me. So even if I'm dealing with stuff, I think it was really important for me to still be available to help others. And it kind of gives perspective. Like we've all got some people in this community that we can look to and go, they've got a bit of a worse deal than us.
Like, and I'm sure we can all think of someone and a few people that come to mind pretty quick and just being able to look at those things and go, all right, you're dealing with some crap, but shrug it off, get back to work. It'll be fine. Yeah, kind of just being able to deal with it better than I thought I would, to be honest. Yeah, I'm pretty proud of that 'cause it could have gone a different direction. - Yeah, yeah, I think you hit an hour on the head. I'm proud of that. Your ability to be the kind of like Paulsy was talking about with walking in his environment.
Just a person that unintentionally, a lot of the time, unintentionally some of the time is there to help others. And to be that kind of lighthouse in the storm kind of deal, you're always someone that, like even when you're going through shit, you'll listen to me talk rubbish. And I appreciate that. I meant to say that I don't talk rubbish. - Oh. - And I think like some songs on the band are over. Not in all of it. - I think some songs that you don't ask for help and that's probably a room for improvement for next year.
- But I think even, I agree that you're right, but I think I've been better at it. - Yeah, I think you're open enough so that if I ask the right question, you'll open up. - And that's pretty something I recognize. I think a lot of people will say, "Hey, go on." And that's just a reflex to me. It's not actually a, "How are you going?" Or for me, I don't respond to that question. I'm just like, I show up, "Yeah, good, busy, good work." And then it's like, I give him a generic boring answer, probably like, "Ah, he's a bit of a standoffish, doesn't really care."
But if you kind of poke me and ask him a proper question and actually show some investment into me, 'cause I'm not a fan of this whole talk. Like I could turn it up to posse and go, "Hey, how you doing?" Like, "Oh man, how's it to be finished school?" Like, "How's the house going?" Like, ask some questions about what's going on with posse or ask something, but not just, "How are you doing?" Like, "Yes, it's fine." But it doesn't really dive in. - The person asking that question, they're probably just looking for a response that said, "Yeah, I'm all right."
They probably don't want to say, "Here, what really is going on?" I think they're just trying to make a small talk and those kind of things. - But yeah, so I've been more intentional as well, trying to make sure I'm asking those kind of proper questions and getting past that just to a very small talk and then, "Cool, interaction, bye." It's even three months again when you drop in, like. - Yeah, that's one of the things that I want to get better at next year, is like, intentional inquiry and being able to ask, getting better at asking good questions, 'cause there are good questions, there are shitty questions.
And actually, building and fostering connection between other people is just far too overlooked. And I think that's something that we, like, everyone benefits from it. Like, all we need to do is be a little bit more intentional, invest a little bit more of ourselves into others, and like, both of you feel better. There's no, even if the conversation is in a negative space, I think by connecting and by sharing yourself, you should just fill it up. Like, we need that connection. - Doesn't have to be a deep connection either, it can be like superficial stuff, like, "Oh, how was that movie?"
So like, showing investment into the other person's life and remembering something important or just kind of bringing more information in like, generic, "How are you going?" Or, this time of year, it's like, "Oh, so what are you doing for Christmas?" Like, kind of, "Oh, you want holidays, yeah?" Kind of generic. - Yeah, chunky. - But like, this is how we all cope and this is, we don't, probably don't realize we do it. - Yeah, it's just kind of hard saying that part that we've fallen into, and... - There's so much value in like, just remembering someone's story.
Greeting them by name and remembering that thing that you spoke about four weeks ago, but still remembering and asking about it, and yeah. - Such a big part of community is like, knowing people and being known. Like, there's something intrinsically human about wanting to be known. Yeah, and such a significant thing. And if I can tag on the back of what Lachie said, like, having known you for a bunch of years, I'd say in the last 12 months, you've become super consistent. Like, you're probably one of the most consistent people that I know, and I reckon that's such a good quality to have 'cause it's rare, but yeah, super consistent.
Love you guys. - If we're an 150th football team, you would get the most consistent. (laughing) Put that on my resume, yeah. - It's a new technique. - What's your signature, most consistent? (laughing) What are you most proud of, Lachlan? - As we've been bouncing around the beach with you two, I've had like 10 answers in my head. I think I'm most proud of how my definition of success has changed. 'Cause that answer I just gave was different to what was in my head about 15 seconds ago. (laughing) But that definition of success has been helped along by my ability to slow down and reflect a little bit.
I was chatting to someone the other day, and she was asking like, what do you see in your mind when you think of certain people? So when I think of Polsky, what do I see? Like, I see him smiling after he's just hit a squat. Like, what do I see with Coop? He's like, probably sitting across from me, drinking a coffee, like talking about a book. Like, what do I see? When I see KP, like I see her looking at me like I'm an idiot 'cause I've just said something stupid. Like, when we picture someone in our head, what do we think?
And she said to me that when, like 12 months ago, if you asked me that question about you, I would have said you were just like, eyes on wherever you're headed, like charging. And now it's more stopping and sitting and contemplating rather than having to go all the time. So I think the definition of success has kind of changed from more and bigger and all of that kind of stuff into like getting, and what we talk about it for on the back end of it is getting really good at being small, I guess, and doing what we do really well so that we can add more and more value to the people around us.
And I think being able to kind of similar to Tommy as well, going through like some highs and some lows and it's definitely been the hardest year I've had in business for a bunch of different reasons that I wouldn't have necessarily expected 12 months ago. So I'm always someone that's been really sure of what I wanted and where I was headed and kind of having that change in perspective and like the goalpost effectively moved this year for me. It kind of made me doubt who I was and why I was doing it and stuff. - Yeah, I've definitely noticed that and I think you've taken it easier in yourself.
You had such high expectations for Virtus and yourself to a point where it was never gonna be achievable. And even if you did achieve, you'd always be wanting more. You found they're not attainable goals, but they're still within reach and they're reasonable and they're not dependent on ticking a box. It's like an everyday adjustment and you're just living that way in success now, as opposed to needing to have 300 members in the gym and opening another one was success. Now it's like the people that are coming love it and enjoy coming to Virtus, it's about success.
So it's an everyday thing as opposed to like one big giant goal that's stressing you out and you can just, you're winning daily as opposed to chasing one win that might never come. - And celebrating the journey as well, like not just having that one thing. It's like, you know, today's a good day because, you know, Steph hit a PB or whatever it is, like having those wins-- - Yeah! - Don't you? - You've changed from, you want quality now over quantity, which is, I don't think you ever will fully the other way, but you've
definitely shifted now to go, man, if Virtus is as big as it gets, but everyone here is on fire and loving and coming, that's a win. - Yeah, sure I'd love to have another 20, 30 people on visionary, but if we just stopped where we were at at state and we're able to tip in more to each person, they're able to get better and they're able to tip in more of the community, then that's what committing looks like, I don't know. There's a couple of habits that I've kind of jumped on this year that have just added that consistency to me, like daily journaling, meditation, weekly email, like doing the same simple things every day has helped.
And I'm looking forward to adding a few things to that list next year. I guess the next part of where we wanna hit and we're kind of on time, 20 minutes for each segment, is what are you guys most confident about? And this is a bit of a stopping, not necessarily reflecting, but stopping, taking your breath and going, well, what do I know is gonna be okay? What do I know I'm good at? What do I know I'm gonna be able to continue to do and do well? I'll go first just to give you a bit of an idea of maybe who you guys are.
- Snakewater. - We'll just spin it around. We'll change the type of play. I'm most confident and I think it's come from the ability to reflect that I'm gonna figure it all out. And I know that I'm not gonna figure it out in that sense, but I know that everything's gonna be okay. And then I'm gonna be successful and I'm gonna achieve things because I'm super fucking happy right now. Like nothing needs to change for me to be happy. Like I love K. Peter Bitts, love all you guys. As long as I get to sit
at a table like this and have these conversations and grab my book after and sit down and read and whatever, I know that everything's gonna be okay and I'm confident that regardless of how many times I fuck up, 'cause I will a lot, that yeah, things will always work out in the end 'cause that's the lamest thing I've ever said. You know what I mean. - You got the tools in your toolbox now. - Yeah, it comes from your ability to reflect and like enjoy the process. Like the most growth occurs when you are happy and enjoying it, enjoying the process.
Same as in the gym. Like when you are enjoying being there the most, that's when you see the biggest results. - Yeah. - And I think that's the same as in business and in life. When you fall in love with the process, that's when you see the growth and the development, that is gonna make the biggest impact. - Yeah. - And that's what you're doing. - Yeah. For me, it's probably a few things. Probably, like Brooke said, consistency's been huge. I'm confident that I can be consistent and I've just got that kind of drive to turn up, do what needs to be done until it's done.
There's, yeah, I don't give up doing stuff. My faith as well helps. I'm confident in that, that that's not going anywhere. And there's just an underlying piece, no matter how tough things get. You've always got that kind of bedrock of faith, which is really nice to have. Yeah, but yeah, probably that consistency's a big thing. Like, I'm confident that I can show up. - How is that? - Appreciation of the semantics. Not biting. (laughing) - For the last time, no. How has your faith helped you this year? Like, turn back to the previous question. - It's, oh, unbelievably.
Like, to know that no matter what has been happening, there's still like, unloved. And like, probably another one is like, confident in my community, supporting me as well. There's my faith. No matter what happens, there's like, a bunch of people. So, a few of you there for my birthday. That was pretty cool. Like, really tough day, but surrounded by incredible people. It was just like, such a drastic showing of like, how awesome my faith and community was that everyone was able to pick me up. And it was really cool. But yeah, I think, I've talked to you about this a bunch, but it's just this, no matter how crap it gets, there's this like, it's all good.
Like, I've got you. There's never like, a free fall kind of moment. Like, that's how I describe it. It's faith is always like, you've got this parachute, you've got this. - Yeah, safety. - Yeah, you've got a safety line kind of thing. Like, there's no, you're never going to free fall. So, there's no fear of that. You kind of, you're walking this type of like, I'm fine. Like, you might fall. It's all good. Yeah, I'm fine anyway. - Yeah. - It's, yeah, that's kind of where the confidence comes from. - It's that big, solid foundation of the rest of your life.
- 100%. - Yeah. - And Brooklyn can probably- - Yeah, for sure. - Get a version of that. - Pretty significant having, you know, something that's bigger than you. 'Cause you need, when you are going through, you know, those valley times in life and the shit times in life, having something that's bigger than your situation becomes such a, yeah, a really significant lifeline. Like, we all need that every now and then, but having that consistent something is pretty cool. Me, I am confident in myself, which is really cool to say. Yeah, I'm self-confident. I'm living the dream.
I know who I am. I know my faults. I'm okay with them, you know, working on them. I know my strengths. And I'm really confident in who I am today. - That's cool. - Yeah, and it's cool to be able to get to that place, I think. - Absolutely. - I spent so long in my 20s just like trying to be everything that I'm not and trying to escape the things that I saw in myself as weaknesses. You know, you were talking about emotion and that type of thing. And everyone would say procure an emotional person.
Absolutely I am. But like, there's so much negative connotations to the word emotional. Like I'm, if I'm not between a four and a seven on the emotional scale, I'm crying. Like I'm crying when I'm happy. I'm crying when I'm sad. But like flipping that negativity and the negative connotations from emotional to compassionate. That switch has been so significant to me and my confidence. And like, I'm feeling strong. I'm feeling good. Like I'm feeling good when I'm here. Feeling good in relationships and yeah, feeling confident in myself. - That is very cool. - I'm confident, similar to you.
Look, I'm confident in the choices that I've made over the last probably like 18 months to be where I am now and that it's put me on a trajectory to get me to where I want to go. I think. (all laughing) I'm confident. - I'm confident about not being that confident with myself. I think I'm confident. - But I'm okay with that. - It's always unknown. - Yeah, yeah. And I'm more comfortable with the unknown, I think. And like, I've always been unsure about the direction that I'm moving in. I've kind of done things, made decisions based on what I have enjoyed rather than where I want to go.
So I guess having that sort of, definitely having that growth mindset and having that sort of future outlook has enabled me to make decisions that will put me on a path to, I'm not sure where it's going, but somewhere good. And somewhere where I can make a contribution to the people around me and love where I am and who I'm with. - Yes. - Yes. I'm confident about the work I've done this year is gonna put me in good stead for the next 12 months. So I think I've made a few changes to my mindset,
which is going to enable me to be prepared for what gets thrown my way in 2019, which is a good space to be in, I think. Yeah, so a bit of a shift in my thinking has helped me with that. But yeah, surrounding myself with community or people and being able to lean on them when I need to and then offering my support too. 'Cause I think Tommy hit the nail on the head too. Being that person that if you're having a shitty day, but someone comes to you for help, I find that kind of,
if I go then help someone that makes me feel a lot better for what I'm going through and you kind of forget about whatever you're dealing with yourself, someone asks you for help, I'm more than likely gonna say yes. And as Brooke said, it's trying to find that balance between always being that person that people come for to help and also having the strength within yourself to say no sometimes as well. So I find balance. But no, I think I mentioned it before, having enough tools in your toolbox to be able to weather the storm or just deal with the peaks and troughs of what we all go through.
- We all have the potential to do that. - Yeah. - Sometimes we just underestimate our potential. - Oh, absolutely. - Like we won't know until the storm hits, but we can weather it by leading all the people around us and using the tools in our toolbox. - Yeah, we all see people go through shit and go through hell and back. And we, like one of the kind of throwaway lines is I can never do that, I can never go through that. But I think everyone has the strength to be able to weather the storm
or whatever life throws at it and I think a common theme between all of our kind of what we're confident about is just everything's gonna be okay. And whatever happens, we'll be able to deal with it not just by ourselves, but with each other. - And I think as an individual, I think everyone thinks they're their own harshest critic. So you've got that little voice in your head saying like, I don't know myself, like I'm uber critical on what I do and it's learning just to say, it's not as bad as you think it's gonna be.
- Yeah. - You just gotta almost just lay it all out and say like, this is not true, this is not what you're really doing and stuff like that. And all the things we just said helps you get out of that kind of mindset and stuff like that. - I understand. What are you guys excited for? I mean, yeah, like Puke's hit an hour on the head for us. We've spent a big chunk of this year together. It's been a massive year and it's not necessarily because we've dove into one thing and just focused on
that, but it's been a multitude of little things like everyone in our environment's been, had their finger in a couple of different piles, which brings apart its own challenges. But I think it allows us a really good springboard for 2019 because we've all been trying things and failing things and seeing things in different ways and figuring out what we actually wanna be doing. And like that excitement and the enjoyment that is gonna come from next year is almost like, we've had those stepping stones this year that will help us to get to that. So yeah, we'll go the opposite way around the circle again.
We'll start with the J-poles. - I'm just excited for what next year will bring. I just feel like professionally at work, like I've taken on a bit more responsibility. Like this year I've got year 12 maths for the first time. I'm excited to be given that responsibility at school 'cause obviously what I do can have a big impact on the future of some of my students, particularly with, yeah, and that's both exciting and scary at the same time. I'm excited for what life will bring. I think being the age that I am now, a lot of my friends and a lot of people I surround myself are doing things that are quite significant in their life.
So being present at this stage and having the ability to see my friends like get married or have children and these kinds of things, I just think it's, I'm almost in a perfect storm of being able to see these things happen with my mates and then those things too. So yeah, that's what I'm excited for. In this, yeah, it's gonna, I just have that feeling. And I've had hell, like this week, just gone has been like hell week for me and be able to come out of that now. I'm in a pretty privileged position where school holidays, like I don't have to go back to after Australia Day.
I can kind of like really set myself up, I think in the next four to five weeks, if I can have some purpose to what I do over the next five weeks, I think I can see myself moving in the right direction and moving forward or get to where I think I wanna be in 12 months time. - That's huge. - Yeah, I'm in a good spot I think at the moment. If you asked me maybe three weeks ago, it probably wasn't that I'm. - You're in the finish line. - Yeah, I'm at the finish line.
It's a good term. I'm very privileged to be able to say that. - Cool. What's up with tons of stuff? Excited for everything that's happening in Virtus and the community that we're building, the culture that we are fostering, both in the Virtus family and as a team of leaders. I'm excited for university this semester. I've got some good units that I'm looking forward to diving into and then being done in the middle of the year, it'll be sort of a big shift to go from six months of uni to six months of unknown. So whatever comes next, I'm excited to dive into that.
I think I'm most excited about continuing to build relationships and connections with people. My relationship with Sallyanne, my relationship with all of you here, relationships with future members and mentors and just anyone, I don't know. Just like, I've really loved having good conversations this year and so I'm excited to keep that going. - See you again. - Do you think the older you get, Koop, you value those conversations more and more now? - Definitely. I'm not sure why. I think maybe the role that I've taken at Virtus, coupled with the experience that I've had over the last few years being away from family and away from friends.
- Those are the perception and being more perceptive to what other people's wants and needs and then how you're actually viewing the world. Seems to happen a little bit. I feel as though it's happened for us over the last couple of years. Everyone's kind of around the same age. That as you do get to those middle, late 20s, you start to realize that, okay, it's all about me and definitely start being more perceptive to those conversations. - Yeah, I like, I wanna make a big contribution to the people around me. And I found that the more I invest in others, the more growth and development I have as a human and as a coach, as a friend.
So, yeah. - Unrelated question, do you think the older you get, the more interested in weather you get? (laughing) - Well, look, I've been quite muggy the last few days. - I find that myself. - I'm looking forward to some. - Like I find weather now quite interesting, weather patterns and these kind of, I don't know. - It really was unrelated. - Oh, super unrelated. - Yeah, I know. - Careful. - I don't know if you talked about as you get older. Yeah. - There's a lot, come on. - Yeah, there's a lot. - I've definitely been a lot more interested in...
(laughing) That's not a good sentence. Let me start that again. - I become a lot. (laughing) Move on. - Are you doing your master's? (laughing) - You'll have to go back. - Have you finished uni before? Is this like your second wave? - This is my master's now. - Yeah. - So, I did my bachelor's in 2013. I finished that and then dived into the master's 18 months ago when I got back from overseas. - Yeah. - So. - It's a really strange feeling finishing. - Yeah. - And it's gone super quick. What are you laughing at?
(laughing) - I was waiting for it. - Let me tell you about the time I was in the UK. (laughing) This is for our metro. - Did you go to the UK? - Yeah. (coughing) - Yeah, I like it. - Yeah, it's a big, I had a strange feeling when I kind of finished. - It's been a big, it's gone really quick the last 18 months and I have a suspicion that the next six months will go really quick as well. - Absolutely. - But at the same time I've really enjoyed it and like I've really enjoyed the growth that I've experienced over the last 18 months.
I think like with university running in parallel with Virtus and all the other. - A lot of other subjects and stuff, hey? - Yeah, definitely. And it's been great having Virtus to practice on with all my universities. So yeah, it's been a really cool 18 months since we've been back and I'm really looking forward to diving into next year and everything that comes with it. - Very good. - I'm just so pumped about next year. Like there's so much to look forward to. So, I mean, I start a new job in January which I'm really excited about.
You know, there's a whole bunch of traveling involved. I think one of the things I'm most excited about is just continuing to pursue the things that I'm passionate about. Like for me, I think it was you that said it, like partnering with something, like investing in communities and getting around that. Like for me the last six months have been really intentional about like less of me and more about how I can relate to other people and I know partner with things that are doing some good in the world. So I'm really looking forward to what that looks like moving forward.
And it might look different in the last six months but I'm hoping it continues to set my soul on fire and you know, make a difference. - Have you got any specific projects or pursuits that you want to dive into? - Yeah, I mean, it will look pretty similar. So for me, I don't know if you've heard but I actually just spent four and a half months in Kenya. - Did you? - I know, yes I did. And so obviously like the passion for that continues. It will look different. I can't necessarily spend the next
four and a half months over there but what I'm recognising is, you know when you find something that you're passionate about in the community that you, you know want to do some good for and good in that doesn't just go away. And so for me now, the next little while is figuring out how can I continue that partnership in the context of me living the life that I live here so that's exciting for me and we'll see what happens in the future. But, you know, there's relationships that were built there that will continue forever. And
same here, if I look at the relationships in the community that we have here at Virtus and the communities, you know, that we have here it's the same kind of thing like how are we investing in the people around us? How are we, you know, making other people feel like they're champions and, you know have got every opportunity in life. And, you know, that context might be different here but it's the same kind of thing like how are we loving the people around us well. That gets me excited. - So I've heard a few things. Jin, like last year's podcast we talked about how I was going to just start doing stuff.
It was a big thing for me and this year has been a year of doing which is pretty cool. So a few of you might know that Wallace and I and a few other people, they didn't mention that they didn't do well, do a lot. Exactly. - So we've had a couple of, 100% yes. We've had a couple of slip ups and kind of things slowing us down but we're pretty confident that by the end of June we'll have some stuff in bottles. - Yeah. - Amazing. - And then we're going to start going whole hog.
Yeah. So stay tuned for drops of juniper, June. So we're both pretty excited about that. But professionally as well common folk's growing at a good rate of, I'm pretty happy with what we've done and continuing to grow that. And probably excited for getting to the stage where I can employ someone else into the roastery giving me a bit more breathing space to think more strategically than just down in the dirt kind of grinding it out. - Turning ground shift, ground? - Pretty much. I mean, like I'm never going to step away from that, but yeah,
there's, it's just a lot at the moment with no space to really think about how to do things smarter or more efficiently or at a higher quality at the moment. So like all, all time is just hustle, get it done and get out of the building kind of thing. But yeah, it's exciting for that kind of growth and then hope there's some opportunities with travel for coffee as well. - She's a queen. - So yeah, for someone who's been coffee as long as I, I've just like really badly timed which companies I've been at when and just miss out on all these trips to origin working with producers and stuff.
So I'm going to make it happen next year. - Super exciting. - If you're listening Sammy, sort it out. - It's a question for both you and Tommy Lockie. Where do you think this kind of explosion of gin, like a new wave of gin popularity has come from? - It's probably a really good question to ask Tom because I, one time I had gin and I made Wallace have it and ever since he's been on it and the rest of the world seems to have followed. Tell me more. - Pretty spot on. - I don't know, I think it's-- - First of all, don't drink shit gin.
And second of all, if you're going to drink shit gin, put a good tonic with it 'cause it can save some shit gins. - It does its best. Just no more Schweppes, especially Schweppes diet like that is just-- - Yeah. Fever Tree or Cappy, that's basically it. - Speak to those and you'll be all right. I think it's just an accessible drink. It's always refreshing unless you've had one of those kind of traumatic bad experiences with gin and tonics. Like most people are pretty open to it. - Yeah. - Unless you can't be and you hate fun.
- Yeah, true. - You can have breakfast though. You can have breakfast gin, you can have lunch gin. - I think I had-- - Breakfast gin. - I think I had a traumatic experience one time. - Yeah. - Out with the sesh with the boys and gin and tonic was given. We played like dealer's choice when we went out with a certain group of people and they brought a gin and tonic. It probably was a bad gin and tonic and I said, this tastes like my nana's garden. Why the hell? (laughing) - Why have you been drinking this?
- That's delicious. - Yeah. But now I'm, yeah, I consider myself a fan. - Is the most traumatic drink consistently tequila? - Oh. - That's still a good one. - In everyone's opinion. - I actually-- - I've got a story. - I don't like tequila. - Oh. - Vodka for me. (laughing) - I think the one I hit most is like, oh, I had this nod on tequila everywhere I go. - I've never actually had a session on tequila. I reckon I've had shots, but I've never actually consistently drank it throughout a night. - Keep it that way.
(laughing) - Yeah, I don't intend to going-- - Do your best to just avoid it. - Two out of five are saying tequila no go. I'm just happy that that night that I did have that had only ruined tequila for me, it didn't ruin tacos. (laughing) - Lucky. - Geez, that's a win. You take that. - Is it a fake? - If it ruined tacos. - I'm kind of on the comeback for gin. I had a big night with Heath where we consumed two bottles of gin between us in about a four hour period. - Wow.
- That was our payment for DJing for Jack and Ash's engagement and we'd consumed it in one go. - Yeah, play on it. - Why don't you? - Play on your own. - But if you wouldn't. - I went to some distilleries and stuff with Heath the following week and I was gunshy on gin. I was like, I don't want it. - How did it taste? Taste a version. - Yeah, I was really worried that I've ruined it. (laughing) Honestly, I was so scared. - I'm an owner and a gin cup. - I was doing it all with my boys.
I'm like, guys, I'm gonna gin cup you. - I think I'm done. (laughing) It was real. (laughing) But we're all good. - Back on the alt. - Back on the alt. - Back maybe. (laughing) - So, just a reminder, drops of gin if I get honest. - Yeah. - Is that a bottle of Gordon's down there? - Yeah, it is. So, Tommy and I have a bottle of Gordon's which is top three worst gins of all time. (laughing) That we re-gift between each other. I got it for K.K. (laughing) I'm looking forward to giving it back to him recently.
- Unpopular opinion. Aldi do a pretty good gin. - No, unpopular opinion. - Really? Okay. - Did the winner answer? What's the reward? Everyone agrees. - Really? All right. Gin population. - Gin shouldn't be hard to make. There's good options out there. Don't take very long so if you fuck it up you can do it. - Gin lane, we'd recommend. There's a good cheap gin out there. - Should we? - Yeah, recommend. - The pink. - The pink is better. (laughing) - I don't love the pink but either. - Gin shots. - Yeah. Otherwise, for a stock standard, go NGC, kind of in that kind of middle tier.
- I only have a couple of local boys. The radio, original, yeah, gin bottle. Yeah, it's pretty delicious. It's a 60 bucks bottle. - It's a good reason why you don't have to go top shelf. - Yeah. - All the time. - But if you're gonna go top shelf. Monk 47. - If you're gonna buy us a gift, top shelf. - Monk 47, Antipodes. It's really botanica. Play on. - Yeah. - What are you most excited for? - Drops of Juniper. - Stock of near, have we got time? - Yeah, we've got time. We've got, yeah, actually, we're gonna do this.
- Three minutes. - Really, really well. - Come on. - What am I most excited for? I'm excited to just roll into the unknown knowing what the next step is and not necessarily being able to see the step ahead of that. Just unintentionally, kind of had a lot of plans around this year and then early next year. But after middle of February, I have absolutely no idea, apart from one of the things we wanna run at Virtus, the events and things like that all fall off from this year. I have no idea what the next 12 months after that looks like.
And that may have frustrated me a little bit this time last year, but I know that. But maybe needing to book some holidays around when everyone else goes away. Any danger of you guys just staying here for a month at a time? Mitchell and Coop and Jess been on many holidays over the last couple of years. - No. Yeah, but I need to kind of block out some time for some trips I wanna do. The next 12 months is very much unknown. I know that from an intention point of view, Virtus Wire is gonna keep tipping into backend systems.
Work out ways that we can spend a lot more time on the floor, a lot more time in classrooms, a lot more time teaching. That's gonna be a big intention for me for next year is get back teaching. So I'll use some positive pressure and bought myself some new presenting clothes. (laughing) So I'm gonna look fresh as fuck when I'm teaching. - Not necessary. - Nah, it is. (laughing) - Shove the thumbs all day. - One of my kind of visions down the track is I wanna be able to present on stage and be able to have conversations that make an impact and change the way people think about the world.
So that's one of my intentions going forward. So this year is very much about still tipping into learning, still tipping into my habits. I'm very excited for the gym stuff, obviously. I'm very excited for KP to dive into a classroom for the first time. So it's, and she doesn't give herself enough credit, but it's been a pretty epic ride for her over the last five years, teaching in uni and all those kind of things. Being a PE teacher or being a secondary trained PE and ASHRAE teacher to get a job in primary and to knock
that out of the park for the last two years in a tough school, it's shown massive resilience and then for her to be able to get a classroom gig because they didn't want her to go anywhere else. She got five days in a classroom, so. - Yes. - So yeah, shout out to Charlotte's Cafe. - Yeah! (laughing) - She's done a great job and I'm very proud of her. I'm excited to see her just run with it and to be an epic teacher. She's becoming the kind of teacher that I would have loved to have back in the day.
She's pretty hot too, so that would have been good. (laughing) Yeah, just keep sipping into the connection. That kind of core group at Virtus is getting stronger and getting bigger and to allow it to be at a stage where it can, you know, widely or easily open its arms widely to allow more people into it. I think that's one of the things like with cults of the past, when a group gets together, it can be a little bit like, who are you, you're not part of us. So working out ways to have the inclusive group
of people that goes from 20 to 30 to 40 to 50 to 60 to 70 to 80, however many we end up getting to as a consistent group. That's kind of what I'm looking for. I think the flash in the pan, intensity stuff is less exciting to me now. It's more about that consistency around the growth and just showing up and doing cool stuff. It's gonna be a pretty epic year. I think knowing, you know, it's something we've been working on for the last couple of years, but knowing that everything that happens is our responsibility.
And whether it does happen or it doesn't happen or whether things go well or don't, it's our responsibility to either deal with the things we can control or accept for things that we can't. I think that's the exciting part for next year. One last thing to finish. I hope this conversation for everyone listening has been a really good chance for you guys to hear some of our stories and some of our lessons, but mostly 'cause I'm sure when we were talking about what we enjoyed and what we're confident about and what we're excited for, you would have been doing the same thing for you.
If you can write it down, do it because it's a cool reflection piece each year to be able to look back and see what's worked, what hasn't, and what you're excited for. So hopefully this has been somewhat beneficial. If it hasn't, I've had fun for the last hour, so carry on. But the last thing I wanna do is one tangible piece of advice that you've learned or been given this year that will hold you in good stead forever. - Back your way. - Start with Tommy, 'cause I-- - Oh, jeez. - I'll finish. - That was a hedge.
- Handball. Solid handball. - Um, probably would be, man, I was out of nowhere. I'd say deal, don't dwell was kinda something that I've been working on for a little bit. It was, you can easily just get down and have a silken, I don't know, kind of be defeated by things, or you can see what's the problem and deal with it. Like there's a difference between the two, and I think just that little mindset of deal with it, don't dwell with it. Like you're allowed to be down, you're allowed to be sad. No one's saying
you have to be a rock and have no emotions, but as long as you're progressing towards a place of positivity in the end, it might get worse to get better, but as long as you're trending towards a positive outcome, I think that's kind of something that I've learned this year and would like to pass on. - It's real good. - It's cool. - Mine's super cliche, but it's cliche for a reason. Absolutely nothing good comes from a comfort zone. So like, if you even can just jump out of that space, or even if it's a tiny step, like you're going to see growth, you're going to see good things.
It's going to be uncomfortable, and at times it's going to be a little bit of shit, but it's going to get real good. Yeah, so just take that step and get it done. - Nice. - Thanks. - For me, more is not better, better is better. I think I realised this so much, like relationships, work, putting in time for yourself. Yeah, that's just something that I've sort of really resonated with this year, and it's like a quality quality thing. I think always go for quality. And yeah, it's a bit better, a bit better. One for me that I'm kind of running through, but I think it's a good one, is be patient, be wise, be ruthless.
That's from Lionel Sanders, Ironman triathlete. - I like it, cool. - Yeah, so it's a big one for me. - That's cool, being ruthless in your consistency is epic. - Ruthless is a big word, and it can be taken in many ways, but for him as an athlete, he, strange dude, for example, he come second at Kona two years ago, and the way he drove himself this year, and he didn't have the greatest of races this year, on his, he lives in Canada, so he does a lot of his training indoors. So he decided that he'd have a photo of the exact moment when he was passed in front of his treadmill.
And for 12 months, he stared at that exact moment of when he got passed at Kona. And then that was his driving force moving forward. - That's brutal. - Yeah. - Brutal, like, and yeah. - I love those people, eh? - Yeah. - I love those people. - I guess he-- - Actually, it didn't work for him this year, but he didn't have the greatest of days, but I think that's just mental toughness, just all in one. - Yeah. - I have two. - Well, let's just break the rules. - Well, I have one, and then I'm gonna thank you guys, and I'll finish with the last one.
So my main one is just spend time on you, like, developing yourself. I think you should work harder on yourself than you do anything else, because that allows you to give more to everything else. When we work on ourselves, I think we learn more, we become more aware, and that allows us to, our perceptions change, and we look at the world differently, look at ourselves differently, and we realize how unimportant we really are, but how much meaning that gives. And I think that in itself creates meaning. And yeah, that's it. Thanks for the chat, team. It's been an absolute pleasure.
Bravo on an epic year. - It's always. - And good luck for next year. - Appreciate you all. - And I'll ask a little bit of advice. Just remember that the universe is unfolding precisely as it should. (upbeat music) - Look after Rita. - She's quite lovely, ain't she? - Okay, Christmas before the animals. - That's it. You know, like, it's funny, because we're not, like, we say we're not all descendants of a convict nation, but this is, like, our best Christmas song. A guy about singing his family from prison. So it's a bit ironic, really.
- If you're not in prison today, just appreciate that. And if you are- - Yeah, we're born from a penal colony, but we hate that.
