This week on Dyl & Friends I'm joined by my good friend Ali Terai! Ali has been on the podcast a few times, so I encourage you to go back and have a listen to episode 166 if you haven't heard it already - however this time he's on to chat about a new program he's launching called 'Recalibrate'. We spoke about identifying personal values, what and who you align with, and what direction you want to head in. It's a bit of a different conversation to normal, but hopefully you guys get something out of it!

This week on Dyl & Friends I'm joined by a man who needs no introduction, Joel Selwood. Joel is one of the AFL's all-time great leaders & competitors, but it was his story away from football that captivated me most. We spoke about his IVF journey with his wife Britt and how it impacted him on and off the field, we also spoke about leadership, Geelong's incredible culture and what make's it such an appealing place to play footy.
