It’s been an exciting few weeks since the big announcement where our Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk invited me to join her as a board member of the Organising Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games for Brisbane 2032! We had our first official gathering earlier this week – all 21 of...

I’ve recently returned from an inspiring week travelling around regional Queensland, from Charters Towers (where my Grandma was born) to Hughenden, to Cloncurry and Normanton (population 1200ish people, and some big crocs!), and even my hometown of Townsville. I love any opportunity to visit my home...

To say it was a HUGE first week of #Tokyo2020 would be an understatement! Our athletes have been absolutely world class, making waves with the best of the best! Because they are the best of the best!!

For my first blog post of 2021, I’d like to sha...

Watching the sun go down on a recent holiday with my family, I began thinking about all the things I still have left on my bucket list. I was also keen to find out about my family's dreams and goals.

At the top of my bucket list is taking a year off with my daughter, Jordan, and wife, Sarah, jumpin...

OMG I just spent 4 hours at a conference with Tony Robbins, now it wasn’t a Tony Robbins event it was another event that he did a four-hour keynote.
