#029 - The Average Guy helping Thousands Of Aussie blokes

Better Bloke

In this episode of the Better Bloke Podcast, Matty dives into Rob’s personal journey, giving listeners an inside look at one of the legends behind the mission of Blokes Advice and The Better Bloke Project (he wouldn't call himself a legend on a public platform and would want us to note that). Rob opens up about how his views on responsibility have shifted over time, stressing that at the end of the day, we all have to take ownership of our own growth. The chat digs into vulnerability—something that doesn’t come easy for Rob—as he reflects on finding the right balance between being open and staying in his comfort zone. Matty also brings in some stories and insights from those closest to Rob, sparking a real and raw conversation about what it truly means to be a better bloke.
