Talk is Cheap Podcast
We talk to those who have become badasses at using their voice to speak to their audience fiercely and potently. Led by (yours truly) Journalist and Coach Julia Vogl, the Talk is Cheap podcast digs deep to uncover each guests personal experiences of perceived failure, self-sabotage and fear, and then how they used those lessons to cultivate confidence in their lives and careers.
Together we will become explorers, traversing the inner map of the human condition, cultural programming and its contribution to keeping us small and afraid of being seen. Talk is Cheap will inspire and empower you to use your own voice and embrace your weirdness through the medium of storytelling.

EPISODE 7- "Plunge 14,000 Feet and Live Your Best Life" With Brad Guy
Brad Guy is a content creator, mental health advocate and motivational speaker.
At the age of 22, Brad, a notoriously out-going and gregarious person, was celebrating a belated birthday present; a thrill-seeking tandem skydive.
In what can only be described as a ‘freak accident’, Brad and his instructor’s parachute failed to open properly – not once…but twice.
The reserve chute got tangled in the first. With both parachutes failing they circled furiously in the air like two rag dolls in a treacherous vortex, plunging 14,000 feet to the ground at :.
Well… they did survive – only just; but not without trauma and injury; both physical and mental. A broken spine and torn neck were Brad’s physical scars; severe depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were his unseen scars.
Brad doesn’t just have an amazing story of survival, he is a dynamic and authentic public speaker who fiercely advocates for mental health awareness. He speaks to groups from all different walks of life on the topics of: re-entering life after trauma, self-acceptance through to self-expression, LGBTQ identity in a modern world and thoughtful communication.
He is an educator on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and rehabilitation, with a passion for showing others how they too can achieve their dreams.
