My Story:
After quitting the Brisbane Broncos at 17 years old, I spiraled into a 10-year journey of self-destruction, battling anxiety, depression, emotional struggles, money problems, and poor health.
At 27, I hit a breaking point and decided enough was enough. I dove headfirst into self-discovery—learning through YouTube, podcasts, mentors, and deep inner work.
Today, I’m the host of this podcast, which has consistently ranked in Australia’s Top 100 Education Podcasts. I’m also the co-creator of multiple self-help businesses & brands and the owner of THE TECHNICIAN COACHING, where I mentor people through their own struggles, helping them rewire their minds and take control of their lives.

Your Anxiety Isn't The Enemy: How Performing For Others Keeps You Trapped With Mitchell Ryan
What if your anxiety isn't actually the problem but just a signal that you're performing for others instead of expressing yourself?
In this raw conversation, I sit down with voice coach Mitchell Ryan to explore shadow integration, nervous system regulation, and what it truly means to be present in a world demanding constant performance.
From childhood isolation to finding flow through music, this episode is a masterclass in authentic communication and masculine vulnerability.
You'll discover:
- The "Monster at the Pub" approach to shadow integration (game-changing)
- Why curiosity is the only real form of meditation
- How hustle culture traps you in doing energy vs. being energy
- The bullying paradigm shift that changes everything
- What happened when Travis spoke to 400 kids about depression
- Mitchell's journey from isolated kid to voice coach through music
This episode is for you if:
- You feel like you're constantly performing in conversations
- You struggle with parts of yourself you wish would disappear
- You're sick of spiritual bypassing and want practical tools
- You've been hustling hard but still feel empty
- You want shadow work without the woo-woo jargon
