What if we stopped measuring our worth by what we achieve, and started remembering who we actually are?In this heartwarming and playful conversation, I sit down with Ben Crowe, Australia's most in-demand mindset and performance coach, founder of Mojo Crowe, and someone who deeply understands that we are human beings first, and human doings second.Ben works with elite athletes and high performers, but this conversation goes far beyond sport or success. It's about what it means to simply be human... to play, to explore, to be worthy regardless of outcome. And to remember that our achievements don't determine our identity, but by the beautiful, messy, curious humans we actually are.We explore:Separating who you are from what you doThe two core beliefs that change everything: "I'm worthy no matter what" and "I believe in what's possible"Permission to play, experiment, and see what's possibleHow the "busy" epidemic disconnects us from our humanityNeoteny – reconnecting with our juvenile gene as we get olderThe courage to spread our wings whilst staying rooted in our worthinessWhat felt so beautiful in our sharing together was coming back to that gorgeous place of playing, of being vulnerable, of finding that joy, and letting that spark come through. Because when we do that, we're often better humans. We often interact in kinder ways. We often can turn up with more compassion.[Recorded October 2025]About Ben Crowe:Ben is Australia's most in-demand mindset and performance coach, working with elite athletes, business leaders, and individuals seeking to understand who they are beyond what they do.
