The Imperfects

We’re all imperfect. On this podcast, founder of The Resilience Project Hugh van Cuylenburg, his good friend Ryan Shelton, and only one of their brothers, Josh van Cuylenburg, talks to a variety of interesting people who vulnerably share their own struggles and imperfections, or expertly pass on their wisdom on the subject of imperfection. Whether it’s in The Vulnerabilitea House, The Academy of Imperfection, or with our very own psychologist, Dr Emily, The Imperfects are here to find some valuable takeaways we can all apply to our own imperfect lives.

Enlightening

I am the spouse of an Aussie. We live in the US. I’ve listened to American based podcasts regarding mental health and relationships, but thought that maybe listening to an Australian based one would give me even more insight to my Aussie born and raised hubs. Though the USA and Australia are similar, there still differences. I enjoy listening to this particular podcast because it sometimes enlightens me to the Aussie take on things. Also, the voices of the hosts are very easy to listen to.
