Through stories, tools, and honest conversation, The Wisdom Vault unlocks what really matters.

Hosted by Pod O’Sullivan, whose lifelong fascination with transitions fuels each conversation, every episode will help you embrace these years and live a purposeful life (sore hips & all). Welcome.
Andrew May has spent 20 years in the engine room of elite performance: mental skills and leadership coach to the Wallabies, the Manly Sea Eagles and world champion boxer Tim Tszyu, and the adviser several ASX chief executives call before anyone else.
In this episode of Don’t Let The Old Man In, he makes the case that most men have burnout backwards. It’s rarely a psychological collapse. More often, it’s a capacity problem: not enough recovery, not enough measurement, not enough honesty about what the body is telling you.
Dr Suzy Green helped bring positive psychology to Australia twenty-five years ago, teaching the country’s first university course in the field at the University of Sydney.
In this episode, she sits down with Pod to talk candidly about what happens to men once achievement stops being the thing that drives them.
For 26 years, Tom Cronin was one of Sydney’s top money brokers, working a trading floor that ran on adrenaline, hedonism and very little sleep. He also spent those years having panic attacks in his car, in toilet cubicles, and at client lunches he could never fully explain leaving.
This episode of Don’t Let The Old Man In sits down with Tom, now a meditation teacher, author and founder of The Stillness Project, to talk about what actually happens when a high functioning man’s nervous system gives out, and what it takes to rebuild a life around stillness instead of chaos.
All articles in The Wisdom Vault are organised under our 8 Pillars of Positive Aging, designed to help men navigating midlife transitions with clarity, purpose, and imagination.
