Switched On
Join Tom & Brayden as they talk to a diverse range of guests who are Switched On in their own domains! From athletes & entrepreneurs to local aussie heroes, all of these guests have something inspiring to say to help you get more Switched On in areas of life that you are truly passionate about! Switched On is a platform we’ve created for younger crew like us who are looking at belonging to a community that upholds what it means to learn and grow from life’s experiences, becoming more Switched On in the process. This initiative is powered by the Happiness Co Foundation, but everything put forward is made by youth, for youth. Through Happiness Co we’ve been fortunate enough to work with over 20,000 students across Perth who have encouraged us to create this platform. We believe it has so much potential and we have plans for it to become the go-to platform for connection, wellbeing, support and community for young people. We always love your support and hope you stick around for the ride!

The boys are back! We know it's been a while since we've posted a poddy but that's because we've both been flat out with Happiness Co work, going out to schools, planning the upcoming gala, helping out with the Cold Nips tour...there's a lot going on!
Anyway, tune in for this episode where we debate over a couple questions!
If you've got any good questions or topics you'd like us to talk about done be afraid to reach out on our socials :)

We are pleased to be joing in by the CEO and Founder of Integrated Support Solutions, Sam Hallam!
Sam is passionate about supporting people with disability. As an amputee, Sam is aware of the daily challenges posed to those living with a disability. However, as a former elite level athlete he understands that one’s ability to succeed is only limited by their imagination, pushing to establish more of a presence in the community to open conversations around disability and challenge the expectations of what’s possible.
Sam has a wealth of experience working alongside young people, both in the disability and youth justice space, and understands the importance of working in conjunction with families, service providers, and organisations to ensure participants are given the opportunity to achieve their goals.
Please go support and check out Sam's work at Integrated Support Solutions here

In this episode we are joined by an absolute ball of energy! He’s doing this, he’s doing that…he honestly does it all and we don’t know how he does it – neither does he probably. Luke A J is one of Perth’s very known figures in the health and wellbeing space, with his involvement within the likes of Cold Nips, The 440 run club, Lululemon…the list goes on!
We are very grateful to have him in this morning for our 2nd episode this week dedicated to Men’s Mental Health Week, where this year’s theme is: Mental Health Check-Ups!
We were able to dive into his diverse upbringing and how his journey so far has shaped his "can do" approach to life! His personal philosophy of understanding one's self helps us appreciate this perspective and can be applied to your life right now.
Be sure to check out what Luke is up to with the links below:

We are grateful to be joined by a good mate of ours, as well as a fellow employee at Happiness Co, Barry "Baz" Hamilton!
This week's episode is a special one as we are dedicating it to Men's Mental Health Week (10th-16th of June), where we are focusing on this year's theme: Getting a Check Up.
Barry shared a lot about his own personal journey and it's inspiring to see how far he has come as a result of becoming more self-aware and taking action by getting a check up!

Today we were joined by a young, ambitious lad by the name of Myles"Stallion" Guazzelli.
With aspirations of creating a Father-Son course to combat the issue of troubled youth and sources of toxic masculinity, he talkes about the importance of having a reliable masculine role model in such an important stage of development in life, particularly in today's world.
The persistance and wealth of knowledge this guy has at the age of 16 is something that we advocate highly at Switched On and we are excited to see what's in store for Myles in the future!

This morning we are joined by a good friend Hannah Morcombe, who is thriving in her own line of work as she has her own business called Innerglow Guide, which focuses on yoga, meditation, mindfulness and self-connection.
Additionally, she is technically back at the Happiness Co as she is working with us in the Reach workshops and we wanted to get her in the booth to have a yarn with her today!
Han is such a calm person to be around and this conversation truly inspired us to look more into how we might be able to apply some of her easy tips and tricks to dive deeper such areas that most of us tend to avoid, that being mindfullness, self-connection...etc.
We hope you guys get as much out of it as we did and if you want to see what's coming up for Han & Innterglow Guide check out the links below!

Good to finally be back again!
The podcast was put on hold with Brayden taking his turn to go on a little holiday to the Goldcoast!
And it's for that reason that we wanted to go in the booth and talk about his time away, uncovering some unreal experiences, building new relationships and breaking out of the normal routine (which for Brayden is a big step out of his comfort zone).
With that said, we hope to get the momentum of the poddy back up and running, especially with guests soon so stay tuned!
Remember to share the Switched On channel with friends and fam, give us a follow and rating (5 stars pls) and we'll catch ya in the next one :)

Today we welcome Michael Smith, CMO of UseVerb, a Perth start-up back in 2016 with the aim of changing the way we apply for jobs. They’re doing this through things like video cover letters that showcase an individuals personality before their experience!
We find this super interesting at Switched On as it’s great for our younger audience who might not actually have much experience in the workplace.
This was one of our favourite episodes to record and we are super excited to see where UseVerb goes into the future!
