Progress not perfection

What happens when creativity, play, and purpose collide? You get Joel and Troy McRae — co-authors of delightful children’s books who are on a mission to inspire young people (and grown-ups too) to be more active, more creative, and a whole lot less hard on themselves.Joel is the writer, Troy the illustrator, and together they’ve created two much-loved picture books: Birdwatching Betty and Giraffe Cannot Play Hide and Seek. What began as heartfelt gifts for the children of friends has grown into stories that are now bringing joy, laughter, and important life lessons to readers of all ages.In this fun, thoughtful, and surprisingly profound conversation, we explore the idea of progress over perfection — in creativity, in life, and in the stories we tell ourselves. Joel and Troy share how setting a deadline can unlock creativity, why finding fun in every element of life matters, and how comparison quietly steals our joy if we let it.This episode is a beautiful reminder that you don’t have to get it perfect to get it moving — and that sometimes the most meaningful things start small, playful, and imperfect.In this episode, we talk about:Why progress will always beat perfectionThe power of deadlines in getting creative work doneHow children’s books can carry powerful life lessonsFinding fun and curiosity in everyday lifeWhy comparison really is the thief of joyCreating for impact, not applauseIf you’re a parent, educator, creative, or someone who needs permission to stop striving for perfect and start enjoying the process — this episode is for you.🎧 Listen now and be reminded: progress is more than enough.To find out more about Joel & Troy, Click HereMy website is www.andrewjobling.com.au

The little pot

What if your purpose isn’t defined by what you do—but by what you’re designed to carry and grow?In this soulful and faith-filled conversation, I sit down with Dawn Stephens, a self-proclaimed Fruit Pot, whose life and work are shaped by a powerful metaphor: we are vessels formed by the Potter, created to bear fruit—not pressure, performance, or perfection.Like the beloved main character in her award-winning children’s book The Little Pot, Dawn spent years searching for her identity through roles and titles—educator, wife, mother, fundraiser, sales manager, business owner, and even school principal. Along the way, she learned a life-changing truth: purpose isn’t found in what we hold, but in what God chooses to grow through us.As Dawn shares, being filled—and emptied—isn’t failure. It’s formation.Together, we explore how God uses seasons of pouring out and refilling to cultivate the fruit of the Spirit:love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.Dawn also walks us through the deeper message behind each book in her children’s series:The Little Pot – discovering identity and purpose as a vessel of the PotterThe Tea Pot – learning the beauty of serving and pouring into othersThe Oil Lamp – overcoming fear and shining the Potter’s lightThe Small Jar – understanding that God is never finished with us, and even our wounds have purposeBeyond writing, Dawn lives this message daily—as an inspirational speaker, blogger, and the leader of EA Books Publishing, where she helps future authors bring their God-given stories into the world.This episode is a gentle reminder for anyone feeling empty, overlooked, or unsure of their calling:You are still being shaped. You are still being filled. And God is not finished with you.✨ A conversation about identity, purpose, faith, and becoming fruit-bearing vessels—exactly as the Potter intended.To find out more about Dawn, Click HereMy website is www.andrewjobling.com.au

The identity work

What happens after survival?After the pain, the addiction, the loss, the rebuilding—who do you become next?In this powerful episode of the podcast, Andrew sits down with Andrew Drasen, author of A Vision of Hope and creator of a transformative 90-day framework designed to help people turn pain into growth and live on purpose—not by accident.Andrew Drasen’s work was forged in adversity. His journey through addiction, incarceration, loss, and recovery forced him to confront the deepest question many of us avoid: Who am I when everything I built my identity on is stripped away? What emerged wasn’t just a personal redemption story, but a practical roadmap others could follow.At the heart of this conversation is identity work—the often overlooked but essential step between healing and lasting change. Andrew believes that everyone has something to recover from: addiction, grief, trauma, burnout, broken dreams, or simply a life that no longer fits. His message resonates because it doesn’t stop at inspiration. It delivers structure, clarity, and action.We explore:Why healing alone is not enough—and what must come nextHow rediscovering identity creates direction and purposeThe power of measurable, actionable steps in real transformationWhat it means to live intentionally instead of reactivelyAndrew also shares the deeply personal story behind A Vision of Hope, the first book in a trilogy that bridges story and practice. Written in part while incarcerated—and finished minutes before his release—the memoir is raw, unflinching, and human. The trilogy continues with Reflections, distilling 29 core lessons from his experiences, and The Workbook, a structured program designed to turn insight into action.This episode also touches on profound loss. In 2025, Andrew lost his fiancée Caroline to suicide after her long battle with bipolar disorder and depression. Rather than derailing him, her death sharpened his mission—to build community, reduce stigma, and ensure that no one has to face their battles alone. Her presence, and her absence, are woven into the heart of his work.Beyond the books, Andrew is expanding his impact through Skool-based virtual communities—designed as scalable aftercare, recovery support, and resilience hubs for individuals, schools, justice systems, and treatment providers.This is a conversation about hope with structure, growth with direction, and identity as the foundation of lasting change.Whether you’re navigating recovery, standing at a crossroads, or simply asking deeper questions about who you are and how you want to live—this episode will meet you where you are and invite you forward.🎧 Tune in and discover why identity work may be the most important work you ev

DNA of design

In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of DNA of Design, I sit down with Caleb Matthews, founder of The SeeLink and an international motivational speaker with over 20 years of experience helping people uncover their purpose and live in alignment with their true design.Known for his unique blend of depth, humor, and spiritual insight, Caleb invites us to “see the links” — the often-overlooked connections in our everyday lives that reveal who we are, why we’re here, and how spirit, soul, and body work together according to our unique DNA of Design.Caleb’s journey into purpose began early. As a teenager living in poverty-stricken Africa, he encountered hardship that awakened a deep sense of calling. That formative experience shaped the trajectory of his life — leading him through education, the traditional 9-to-5 grind, and ultimately into a life he loves, helping others step into the life they were always meant to live.With a lifelong curiosity about the unseen side of life, Caleb shares how his fascination with dreams, spirituality, history, and culture became a bridge between worlds — from New Age festivals and Bible colleges to leadership circles, government dignitaries, and international radio. Across decades, he has spoken to thousands globally, built two businesses, interpreted countless dreams, and sat with people from every walk of life — leaders, skeptics, believers, and seekers alike — all searching for clarity and breakthrough.His approach is refreshingly grounded:✨ Tell the truth with humor✨ Connect the dots across history and culture✨ Translate timeless spiritual principles into practical tools for everyday lifeIn this essential and deeply relevant conversation, we explore:What it really means to live according to your DNA of DesignHow your past experiences are often clues to your purposeWhy alignment of spirit, soul, and body changes everythingHow to recognize the “see-links” guiding your life right nowLiving with confidence, clarity, and calling — without strivingWhen he’s not speaking or podcasting, Caleb can be found exploring history, writing, or traveling — always searching for the fingerprints of the Creator weaving meaning through past, present, and future.This is a conversation not to be missed — insightful, inspiring, and full of moments that may just help you see your own life differently.To find out more about Caleb, Click HereMy website is www.andrewjobling.com.au

Micro moments

What if meaningful change didn’t require more time, energy, or willpower—but simply learning how to use the moments you already have?In this powerful and deeply relatable episode, I sit down with Daniela Wolfe, Licensed Master’s Social Worker, speaker, author, and host of the Best D Life with Daniela podcast, to explore how small, intentional “micro moments” can transform overwhelm into balance and burnout into clarity.With over 27 years of experience supporting individuals through stress, life transitions, relationships, parenting, and emotional overwhelm, Daniela brings both professional wisdom and heartfelt honesty to the conversation. She openly shares her own turning point—navigating divorce while raising two babies and trying to “do it all”—and the realization that the life she was living was not the life she wanted her children to witness.That awakening became the foundation of the work she now teaches others.Rather than offering quick fixes or unrealistic routines, Daniela shows how intentional shifts in focus, mindset, habits, and daily structure—even in the smallest moments—can create sustainable balance, energy, and self-care without guilt.In this episode, we explore:Why burnout often comes from how we manage our days—not how busy we areThe power of micro moments to reduce stress and restore calmHow to prioritize yourself without feeling selfishPractical strategies to “make over” your schedule one day at a timeWhy balance is not a destination—but a daily practiceDaniela is the author of Balance Breakthrough: A Practical Guide for Busy Professionals to Take Charge of Their Work, Life, and Well-being, where she equips overwhelmed professionals—especially women navigating major life transitions—with realistic tools to reclaim their time, energy, and sense of self.This conversation is a reminder that balance doesn’t happen overnight—but with intention, compassion, and small daily changes, it is possible to take care of yourself while still showing up as a parent, professional, and human being.If you’re feeling stretched thin, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself, this episode will meet you exactly where you are—and gently guide you forward, one micro moment at a time.To find out more about Daniela, Click HereMy website is www.andrewjobling.com.au

Devolved to evolved

In this deeply human and profoundly inspiring episode, I sit down with Magic Barclay, a woman whose journey from trauma, adversity, and self-abandonment to radical self-healing and empowerment is nothing short of extraordinary.Magic never truly felt well growing up. Caught between a narcissistic father and an emotionally neglectful mother, she learned early that she could only rely on herself. Feeling like “the black sheep,” trust felt unsafe, and control became a survival mechanism.In her teens, that need for control manifested through anorexia, binge-eating disorders, and eventually alcohol dependence. By 21, she was an alcoholic. And as life unfolded, her unresolved self-relationship spilled into relationships with others—leading her into a series of emotionally harmful partnerships and ultimately a marriage to a narcissist mirroring her childhood wounds.To protect herself, Magic’s body became the shield she believed she needed. Morbid obesity felt like the only way to keep herself physically “off limits” to abuse. After 14 years of relentless emotional degradation—being told she was worthless, ugly, a terrible mother—Magic finally broke free. She fled with her children, dogs, and cats, leaving everything behind except the one thing she was determined to save: her family.What followed were four grueling years of legal battles and starting life from scratch. Decades of ACEs, ACREs, chronic stress, and physical trauma took a devastating toll on her health, leading to multiple life-threatening conditions. But this was also her turning point.Magic threw herself into study—learning the interconnected systems of the body, confronting her trauma, and rebuilding her physical and emotional health from the inside out. This commitment to understanding and reclaiming her wellness became the catalyst for a complete transformation.Today, Magic stands as a powerful example of what’s possible when we heal the relationship with ourselves. She is now:An instructor of PNEI of TraumaLead practitioner at Wholistic Natural Health AustraliaHost of her own podcastA woman who is truly well, truly loved, and truly freeIn this conversation, Magic shares how she evolved—body, mind, and spirit—after once feeling devolved by life. We explore:✨ The impacts of childhood trauma on adult health✨ The hidden links between chronic stress, illness, and emotional wounding✨ The dangers of self-abandonment and the power of self-reclamation✨ How she rebuilt her health using an integrated systems approach✨ What true healing looks and feels like✨ How to move from surviving… to evolvingThis episode is for anyone who has ever felt broken by their past, trapped by their patterns, or disconnected from their own worth.
