Lauren Jackson: The Evolution From Basketball to a Limitless Life
With a career spanning almost three decades, across six countries, with five Olympic medals from five separate Olympic journeys, Lauren Jackson has well and truly earned her title as ‘the GOAT.’ But her basketball career is merely a thread that makes up the fabric of Lauren Jackson. A country girl at heart, with a deep connection to family, which shaped her mental fortitude to survive an isolating career with a lack of mental health support. Now, she contributes to the community that raised her, and is an advocate for gender equity, mental health, and eradicating domestic violence. Although you may know her career stats and achievements, that is just the start of Jackson who is truly living a life that’s ‘limitless.’What does Two Am I mean to you?

Dr Simon Longstaff: The Moral Courage of Ethical Leadership
The true difference between leaders and managers comes down to ethics. Managers may make the ‘right’ choice, or the popular choice. Leaders push past standard customs and practices, and will follow their moral code to make decisions. Dr Simon Longstaff, Executive Director of The Ethics Centre, has structured his life around philosophy and ethics, after it was modelled to him by his mother when he was just a child, and continued during his early career on Groote Eylandt. True leadership is not about living and modelling a perfect ethical life, there is no such thing, but making conscious choices that align with core values, and sometimes that takes enormous moral courage.Links from the episode: The Ethics Centre Common SenseThe Rights of Man Perfect Days What does Two Am I mean to you?

Adam Ferrier: Building a brand, nurturing creativity, and embracing the unconventional
Adam Ferrier: Building a brand, nurturing creativity, and embracing the unconventional Adam Ferrier has spent his life trying to understand people, and how to capture their attention. A consumer psychologist by trade, he wrote his master’s thesis on what makes some people “cool” and others not. The founder of creative agency Thinkerbell, Adam believes that brands and people must first “fit in” with the rules of their category before they can truly be distinctive and stand out. He prioritises creativity, and nurturing amongst his team, his work, and every day life. Consistently challenging conventions, Adam is a true creative leader, and whether you consider yourself a creative or not, his unconventional methods could change the way you show up and lead.

If you had to grab two things from a burning building, what would you choose?
Co-hosted by Jack Riewoldt and Shane McCurry, TWO AM I is redefining modern leadership, one convo at a time. We invite extraordinary individuals to tell their story through two objects. Big or small, trinket or treasure. Two things that explain who they are, and what matters to them.
Think of us like a supermarket for knowledge: tune in, grab what you need, then apply it in your everyday life. From sports champs to journalists. Builders to coaches. CEOs to musos. These are the fresh takes on leadership that don’t usually make the headlines.
Listen Curiously.
