The Daily Jabber begins where many of us find ourselves: looking around at a full, busy life and realising that the circle is closing.
In this inaugural episode, your host, a middle-aged family man, sets the stage for his daily journey. He reflects on the recent realisation that life's options - once infinite - now feel defined, finite, and sometimes overwhelming. He grapples with the tension between comfort and change, security and ambition.
This isn't a show with all the answers, but a daily commitment to asking the right questions. What do you do when you see the finish line? You start running your own race.
Join us as we choose to move forward, one honest "jabber" at a time.
Love yourself. Keep jabbering.

The Hermanus debrief: From 'We' to 'Me'

A 4.5-hour drive offers plenty of time for reflection. This week, we get raw about the transition from a team-based corporate culture to the solo-driven world of commission. It’s a talk about identity, the "Creative Wall," and the reality of batting for yourself.
