The Life In Bold Show

What does it actually take to walk away from a comfortable, well-paying career and start completely from scratch? For Megan Cross, it meant taking a pay cut, swallowing her pride, and betting everything on herself at 30.In the first ever Bold Behind the Brand guest episode, Adrian sits down with Melbourne personal stylist and content creator Megan Cross to talk about the messy, unglamorous reality of changing your life when the world expects you to have it all figured out.Megan shares how she left a six-figure recruitment career, stepped back into an entry-level role to build her skills from the ground up, and quietly built one of Melbourne's most respected personal styling businesses. No shortcuts. No overnight success. Just consistency, sacrifice, and an unwillingness to quit.This conversation is for anyone who has ever thought it was too late to change, too risky to start, or too embarrassing to begin again.Connect with Megan: Instagram & TikTok: @megancrossstyleConnect with Adrian:Instagram: @age_inboldPodcast Instagram: @lifeinboldshowWebsite: www.inbold.com.auIf you are struggling and need support, please reach out to Beyond Blue at www.beyondblue.org.au or call 1300 22 4636.

Most people are waiting to feel confident before they try. Here is the problem with that. Confidence does not come first. Action does.In episode three of The Life In Bold Show, Adrian makes the case for what he calls delusional optimism. The belief that things will work out in your favor even when there is no evidence yet to suggest they will. And why developing that skill might be the most important thing you ever do.He shares two stories of moments where he threw logic out the window, backed himself completely, and watched it pay off in ways he never expected. Including a cold DM that landed him a job in under two weeks and a partnership with one of Melbourne's most premium hotel brands that started with a single email.You will also walk away with a practical coaching exercise to help you identify what you have been sitting on and finally do something about it.Because the worst case scenario of trying is almost never as bad as you think. But the cost of not trying is higher than you realise.Connect with Adrian: Instagram: @age_inbold Podcast Instagram: @lifeinboldshow Website: www.inbold.com.auIf you are struggling and need support, please reach out to Beyond Blue at www.beyondblue.org.au or call 1300 22 4636.

Most of us are walking around every single day showing up as a version of ourselves that was designed to fit in, not to stand out. And the truth is, your nervous system knows it.In episode two of The Life In Bold Show, Adrian gets into what it actually costs you to live inauthentically. Not just emotionally, but neurologically. The science behind why pretending to be someone else is quietly draining everything you have.He shares the moments in his own life where he was forced to choose between who he was supposed to be and who he actually was. And what happened when he finally stopped pretending.You will also walk away with a practical self-assessment tool to help you identify exactly where in your life you are operating out of alignment, and what to do about it.Because authenticity is not a personality trait. It is a daily decision.Connect with Adrian:Instagram: @age_inboldPodcast Instagram: @lifeinboldshowWebsite: www.inbold.com.auIf you are struggling and need support, please reach out to Beyond Blue at www.beyondblue.org.au or call 1300 22 4636.

A moment where everything you thought was solid suddenly isn't.In the first episode of The Life In Bold Show, Adrian gets honest about the moments in his own life where everything fell apart. The kind of moments that make you question who you are, what you are doing, and whether any of it is ever going to get better.He shares the real stories, the raw moments, and a practical step by step framework for rebuilding yourself from the ground up when life decides to knock you flat (becuase it will).But what you do next is entirely up to you.If you are going through it right now, this one is for you. If you know someone who is, send it to them.Connect with Adrian:Instagram: @age_inboldPodcast Instagram: @lifeinboldshowWebsite: www.inbold.com.auIf you are struggling and need support, please reach out to Beyond Blue at www.beyondblue.org.au or call 1300 22 4636.

This is not a show for everyone.It is for the ones who have that feeling deep in their gut that they are meant for more. Who want to create a positive impact, live with real freedom, and leave behind a legacy. Who are done being a background character in their own story and ready to make a name for themselves. Adrian Paglia is a business coach and self-help geek who spent years feeling lost, directionless, and unlike everyone else was missing a roadmap to life that someone forgot to give him. So instead, he found his own way. After years of "working it out" he is here to help you do the same.This is where ambition meets delusion. Raw conversations, practical tools, and real stories, with entrepreneurs, leaders, and everyday people who have felt the fear and done it anyway.If you are ready to start living your life IN BOLD, you are in the right place.
