Episode 66 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin. Our guest today is Ollie Moore

In this episode, I’m joined by my good mate Ollie Moore, a hybrid athlete who’s on a mission to become the best in the world.&nbsp; And when I say “all in,” I mean it… this guy is the walking, talking definition of it. Ollie opens up about what it truly means to back yourself 100%, the mindset shifts that come from sacrifice and self-discipline, and the unseen work that separates the good from the great.&nbsp; We also talk about what belief really looks like, where it comes from, and how to protect your energy, your environment, and your dreams at all costs. There’s a raw honesty in this one. From building daily habits and letting go of distractions, to friendships, relationships, and training in complete silence and so much more.

Episode 62 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin. Our guest today is Simon Hill

Welcome to episode 62 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! Today I sit down with Simon Hill - nutritionist, podcast host, author of The Proof is in the Plants, and one of the leading voices in evidence-based health and wellness. Simon is known for breaking down complex nutrition science into simple, actionable advice. But in this conversation, we went way deeper than just food. We spoke about Simon’s personal journey and what led him to become one of the most trusted names in the health space, as well as the challenges he still faces today. He opens up about dealing with imposter syndrome and constantly feeling like he’s not enough, even with everything he’s accomplished. We also unpack some of the biggest nutrition myths floating around online and what the actual science says instead. Simon shares some practical principles that anyone can apply to improve their health, without overcomplicating it. When your inner voice tells you you’re not doing enough, don’t listen to it… Follow Simon:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/simonhill/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/simonhill/</a> Follow Chris:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/morechrisgriffin/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/morechrisgriffin/</a> Thank you to Switch NutritionView my Chris Griffin Collection Page below to grab some of the products that I love and take daily.You can use code GRIFFIN for 15% off!<a href="https://switchnutrition.com.au/collections/chris-griffin?rfsn=7921810.4c98a4" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://switchnutrition.com.au/collections/chris-griffin?rfsn=7921810.4c98a4</a> Thank you to Whoop!If you want to take your health and fitness to the next level try Whoop for free today with my link below:<a href="https://join.whoop.com/chris" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://join.whoop.com/chris</a> Thank you Gymshark!&nbsp;Use code CHRISGRIFFIN for 15% off:<a href="https://www.gymshark.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.gymshark.com/</a> Thank you to Papa Macros!Use code CHRISGRIFFIN for 10% off your orders for life.<a href="https://www.papamacros.com.au/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.papamacros.com.au/</a>

Moment: The Mentality Of A World Champion | Hunter McIntyre

Episode 61 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin. Our guest today is Hunter McIntyre

Welcome to episode 61 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin. Today I sit down with Hunter McIntyre—one of the greatest endurance &amp; hybrid athletes of our time, a three-time HYROX world champion, and an all-around larger-than-life character. Hunter is known for his insane fitness, unmatched competitiveness, and his jock-like persona online. But behind the records and the bravado is a wild story of rebellion, struggle, and transformation. He opens up about his troubled teenage years—getting into trouble, bouncing in and out of rehab centers, and being prescribed nearly every medication under the sun. It was a chaotic time that could have easily sent him down the wrong path permanently. We talk about the turning point—when everything changed and how he took control of his life, channeling that restless energy into becoming one of the most dominant endurance athletes in the world. He shares the lessons he learned along the way, from pushing physical and mental limits to understanding what truly matters in life. This was one of my favourite conversations to date. Hunter brings an insane amount of energy, honesty, and wisdom, and I think you’ll get a lot out of this one.

EP 61: Hunter McIntyre: From World Class Drug Doer To World Champion

Episode 60 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin. Our guest today is Dominique Elissa

Welcome to episode 60 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin. Today I sit down with Dominique Elissa—a successful model, podcast host, and someone who’s been through some serious highs and lows. Dom has worked with some of the biggest brands in the world, but her journey hasn’t been all glitz and glamour. She opens up about struggling with insomnia, anxiety, and disordered eating during her early modelling days, the toll it took on her, and how she found a way to turn her life around. We also dive into something incredibly personal—her recent engagement and rushed wedding. When we recorded this episode just two weeks ago, she had only just said "yes" to the love of her life. But soon after, she had to fast-track her wedding due to her mother’s battle with cancer. She was adamant that her mum had to be there, so they made it happen—right in the hospital. An emotional rollercoaster, to say the least. Through it all, gratitude has been the anchor that’s kept Dominique grounded. She shares how practicing gratitude helped her navigate both rock-bottom moments and incredible highs, and why it’s such a crucial part of her life today.
