Further Out

The Big Yarn is now Further Out. In this solo episode, I explain the story behind the name change, share reflections from a recent trip to Australia, and talk about why chasing more money isn't always the answer.
It's a conversation about mindset, stepping outside your comfort zone, finding what truly matters, and building a life that aligns with your own values—not everyone else's.

In this episode, I sit down with Nigel Lines for a proper yarn about life, mental health, human connection, failure, and what it really means to be a good human.
Nigel shares his journey from struggling with his own health and habits to helping others through health, movement and mental health coaching. We talk about the importance of having people in your corner, why you can’t do everything alone, and how sometimes a simple conversation or small act of kindness can completely change someone’s day — or even their life.
We also get into failure, finding your why, accountability, loneliness, the importance of genuine connection in a world dominated by social media, and the ripple effect that happens when you choose to do good without expecting anything in return.
A genuine conversation about showing up, helping others, and making the most of the people and seasons of life that come our way.
As Nigel puts it: “Just do something for somebody without expectation.”

This episode is all about breaking through the excuses that hold you back. We dive into mindset, self-doubt, victim mentality, perfectionism and the importance of taking action.
If there’s something you’ve been putting off, this is your reminder to stop overthinking, do the doing, and start creating the life you actually want.

Most people don't regret the things they tried—they regret the things they never had the courage to start.
In this episode, I share why chasing your passion matters, how I went from discovering photography in my 20s to building a career from it, and why success comes from one simple principle: doing the doing.
If you've been putting off your dream because of fear, overthinking, or waiting for the "right time," this episode is for you.
Whether you want to become a photographer, start a business, become a content creator, or simply build a more fulfilling life, the time to start is now.

In this episode I sit down for a Yarn with Nick Funnel to learn how he is helping people change their mindset about everyday life and the frame work he has built to encourage it, including a concept he calls looping!
