This week’s guest on the Empowering Leaders podcast is AFL legend, dual Brownlow medalist, and Director and Portfolio Manager of Cerutty Macro Fund, Chris Judd.

Here, Chris shares how a habit formed from a conscious decision to avoid media commentary of his on-field performance as an 18-year-old would lay the foundation for his second round of huge career success.

This episode is a fascinating look into Chris’ remarkable transition from professional football player to the world of finance and investing, and the lessons that connect both worlds. You’ll also hear about the importance of financial literacy, AI and the future of work, family, and why self-leadership is the ultimate key to success.

This week’s guest on the Empowering Leaders podcast is Nick Truelson, the CEO of the NBL's Melbourne United Basketball Club.

Here, Nick reflects on one of the proudest moments of his career - the development of the Western Bulldogs 'Sons of the West' men’s health program. From an idea that councils didn’t believe would work, to an enrolment of over 1000 men in its first year, this is a story about the power of sport, and its ability to not only change lives, but save them.

This episode is a masterclass in what’s possible when you use your time to help others, nurture relationships, and work together to create something that really matters.

This week’s guests on the Empowering Leaders podcast have both experienced the extraordinary highs of elite sporting success, and the devastating lows of addiction.

Scott Miller is known as one of the country’s greatest swimmers, winning gold at the 1994 Commonwealth Games, and silver at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. Ben Cousins reached the pinnacle of Australian football as a gifted player, premiership captain, and the 2005 Brownlow Medallist.

This episode is an honest conversation about the disease of addiction. We hope it offers insight into the complexities of substance abuse, the reality of life in recovery, and the resilience required to maintain it.

Above all, we hope it serves as a reminder that a happy life on the other side is possible. For everyone.

”If you've ever lost someone you love, had your heart broken, faced illness or experienced unexpected change... you're not alone.”

These are the words that this week’s guest on the Empowering Leaders podcast, Dr Lucy Hone, wants every human to remember. A resilience researcher, bestselling author, and international keynote speaker, Lucy’s work is so authentically compelling because it merges academic expertise, with her own deeply personal story of loss.

In 2014, Lucy faced the unimaginable when her beautiful 12-year-old daughter, Abi, was killed in a tragic car accident. Here, she shares three strategies for navigating life’s toughest moments, based on evidence and real, lived experience.
