  • What It Takes to Be a Man | Honest Conversation on Mens Mental Health
    Dec 6 2024

    Send us a text

    What does it take to be a man in today’s world? During Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, Rob, Ian, and Dave tackle this question head-on. It’s not just about the pressures of work or the pursuit of ambition but about the deeper toll it takes on mental and physical health. Through raw, personal stories, they confront the reality of burnout, breakdowns, and the silent battles men often fight alone.

    This isn’t a conversation about quick fixes or abstract solutions. It’s about the hard truths—how stress unchecked can erode not just your body but your relationships and identity. It’s about the shift from chasing unsustainable success to embracing discipline, consistency, and a different kind of strength: the kind that builds you up rather than tears you apart.

    The discussion moves beyond personal anecdotes, looking at the UK’s growing mental health crisis. With grassroots charities struggling to keep up as funding dries up, we highlight the real heroes—those offering lifelines to men who feel they have nowhere else to turn.

    We also challenge you to take control with a 30-day mental health challenge. It’s not about grand gestures but small, daily actions that add up. From the shock of cold water to creating genuine connections, this is about doing the work—because no one is coming to save you.

    This is about more than mental health. It’s about asking yourself: what kind of man do you want to be?

  • Rethinking Parenting - Understanding, Adapting & Thriving | The Pack Review
    Nov 29 2024

    Send us a text

    In this week’s review episode of Project Peak Performance, the pack reflected on Kelly’s deeply insightful conversation from the previous week. Her perspective on parenting and connection sparked a rich discussion about the lasting influence of our actions and the importance of intentionality in how we engage with children.

    The concept of ‘childing’ took centre stage in the review, challenging the traditional notion of parenting as a one-way process. The idea of meeting children where they are and truly understanding their unique perspective resonated strongly. It encouraged a reflection on how shifting focus from instructing to connecting can transform relationships and communication within families.

    The discussion also explored the topic of labelling behaviours and conditions like ADHD, which Kelly addressed with thought-provoking clarity. Her insights on societal pressures to diagnose quickly, particularly in low-income areas, highlighted the potential for misdiagnosis and the lasting consequences it can have. This led to a shared agreement on the importance of slowing down, seeking deeper understanding, and advocating thoughtfully for children.

    Parental energy and the environment they create were another key theme. The episode’s review emphasised how much a parent’s emotional state influences a child’s sense of safety and stability. It was a powerful reminder that creating a nurturing, engaged atmosphere doesn’t require perfection—just consistent presence and intentional effort.

    The conversation naturally turned to the lasting impact of role models. Kelly’s reflections on how children internalise behaviours they observe, whether calmness, volatility, or resilience, hit home. It underscored the importance of modelling the values and emotional regulation we hope to see in the next generation.

    As a pack, the episode review brought a shared clarity: parenting isn’t just about what we say or do in the moment, but about the legacy we create through our actions, energy, and presence. Kelly’s episode served as a profound reminder that intentional parenting has the power to shape not just individual lives, but the foundations of emotional resilience and growth for years to come.

With her unique blend of professional expertise and personal parenting experience, Kelly provides heartfelt advice and practical strategies for fostering emotional growth, connection, and resilience.

    The conversation also delves into the cornerstone of emotional resilience—co-regulation. Kelly explains how staying calm and present helps children regulate their emotions while teaching self-regulation for the future. She also highlights the critical differences between tantrums and meltdowns, equipping parents with tools to handle each situation with confidence and compassion.

    As a Special Educational Needs teacher, Kelly brings valuable insights into understanding and supporting neurodivergent children, including those with autism and ADHD. She advocates for personalized approaches that meet each child’s unique needs, ensuring they feel seen, valued, and supported.

    The discussion takes a deeper look at how traditional education systems often miss the mark on emotional well-being. Kelly and the hosts explore the need for child-centered approaches that prioritize emotional safety, critical thinking, and self-expression over rigid academic benchmarks.

  • Overcoming Control To Create a Zone of Genius | Ben Coomber Review
    Nov 8 2024

    Send us a text

    In this episode of Project Peak Performance, Rob and Dave dive straight into the heart of Ben Coomber’s message: success without sacrificing well-being. They dig into Ben's approach to shifting away from the outdated "alpha mentality," choosing instead to integrate balance, self-awareness, and smart nutrition into leadership. The concept of a “CEO day” stands out—a dedicated day purely for strategic thinking, essential for recalibrating direction and avoiding burnout.

    The pair discuss the real challenge of letting go of control, exploring how retaining too tight a grip can stifle growth. Instead, Ben’s approach is about creating space for team autonomy, fostering creativity, and building a culture that thrives on trust rather than fear. It’s a move from scarcity to abundance, emphasising how true leadership lies in empowering others rather than micromanaging.

    Rob and Dave also address the reality of stress in high-performance environments, not as a detriment but as an opportunity for growth. Ben’s own journey of embracing therapy and coaching breaks down the walls around seeking help, presenting it as a powerful tool for both personal and professional clarity.

    This isn’t just another business talk; it’s a direct look at leading with balance. It’s about aiming high without burning out, empowering teams, and creating success from a place of self-awareness and strength.

  • Mastering Wealth Strategy in a Volatile Market | Robert Rohli Review
    Oct 25 2024

    Send us a text

    Is your cash losing value faster than you can save it? Robert Rolih’s philosophy of ‘cash is trash’ challenges the conventional wisdom of holding onto your savings while inflation quietly erodes its worth. In this episode, we explore how to protect your wealth from this hidden threat, drawing inspiration from our own financial journey. From the turbulent stock markets of the COVID-19 era to our cautious steps into cryptocurrency, we’ve had our fair share of highs and lows. But now, influenced by Robert, we’re shifting focus towards ETFs and index funds—diversified investment vehicles that offer stability and steady growth over time. Our conversation delves into the complexities of financial markets, revealing how we’ve embraced strategic opportunities and, more importantly, learned from our missteps to pave a more secure path forward.


    On Project Peak Performance, we also take a hard look at the age-old debate between property and stock market investments. We weigh up how each asset class aligns with different risk appetites and long-term goals, whether it’s leveraging property for significant returns on small investments or spreading risk through index funds like the S&P 500. We share intriguing investment wins, such as a surprising gold stock triumph, and discuss why starting with a mock trading account could be the smartest way to test your strategy without real-world consequences. Community feedback and learning from past mistakes play a vital role in refining our approach, as we aim to expand our knowledge with insights from Robert Rolih and other financial experts, ensuring that every decision is built on experience and growth.
