How He started as his documentary cameraman like he worked with some pretty big names.
Wow.
Sir Edmund Hillary and the Daly Lama and how that shaped his perspective on change, you know, from that early career to now focusing on motivational speaking.
That's a big shift, huh?
It is.
Yeah. And like even in his bio, it talks about this whole like um average shot to army sniper.
Yeah.
Stutterer to motivational speaker.
Yeah.
Kind of a wild uh resume.

Because his keynote changeability,
it's not just, you know, him preaching. It's sharing lessons from his own life.
Oh, interesting.
It resonates because he's not just talking about change. He's actually lived it.
He's been through it.

What would stand out to you about Julian's Changeability program? I think that it's not just, you know, inspirational fluffy stuff. He gives actual strategies. Oh, cool. Like one of the things is, you know, teaching people how to undercomplicate problems.
Undercomplicate.
Undercomplicate. Yeah. Which essentially is like
breaking down complex issues into manageable steps, you know.

It's a powerful thought, isn't it?
It is. Yeah. So, it's not just like a one-time presentation.
No.
Right. There's a workshop component, too.

Because the workshop allows people to solidify
what they've heard in the keynote. Okay.
With exercises like creating their own personal change plan.
So, they get to actually like apply it.
Yeah. And learning self- coaching techniques.
Interesting.
Which means that they're not relying on, you know,
another person. and to guide them. They can guide themselves.
Take ownership.
Take ownership. Exactly.
Okay. So, it's all about empowering those individuals to become agents of change.
Absolutely.
I like that. Okay. Now, let's switch gears a little bit to best granddad.com.
Okay.
Which seems like totally different at first glance.
Yeah.
But maybe there's like a thread of personal empowerment here as well.
For sure. I mean, I think it's amazing how he's addressing grandfathers feeling left behind
really
in a world that's so dumb. dominated by technology. You know, he's got this tagline that's so simple.
Okay.
But powerful. It's um the best gift you can give your grandkids
isn't stuff, it's you.
Oh, I love that.
Isn't it great? It just cuts through all the noise, you know?
It's so true. And it's like it speaks to that that need for connection that we all have, right? Absolutely.
Like deeper relationships, not just like surface level stuff.
Deeper.
Yeah. So, Can you give me an example like how does bestg grandanddad.com actually like encourage that connection?
So one of the five things or five themes he has on the website okay is risky play.
Risky play.
Okay. So he encourages things like
what does that mean?
Like building forts, climbing trees.
Okay.
You know, things that might seem a little bit risky in our
in our world. Yeah.
50 conscious world. Yeah.
Yeah. We're all about the bubble wrap.
Exactly. And um he really highlights how Those kinds of experiences can build resilience.
Oh, that makes sense.
And confidence in kids. And he even has this great phrase, a scraped knee heals faster than a timid heart.
Oh, that's good,
isn't it?
Yeah. And I think it also like challenges this whole idea of overprotective parenting. It does.
In a really like thoughtful way.
Yes.
You know, he's not just saying like let kids do whatever. It's like be intentional about it.
Exactly.
So, he's encouraging grandfathers to like really step up.

right?

right?

right? What are some of those like quick fixes he's talking about?

the root of the problem.

instead of looking for that validation
outside from else.
Yeah. Or those quick fixes.
