Ep #225 - Truth Vs Comfort: Your choice is governed by your values.

In this 225th episode, which also marks the fifth anniversary of the Show, I reflect on one of the biggest questions we all face: will you choose truth or comfort? The recent announcement of a federal election in Australia sparked my further exploration of how our values shape our choices — especially when it comes to government spending, personal integrity, and national sustainability.

More than half of Australian adults are on the government payroll in one form or another. It’s easy to stay comfortable when that money keeps flowing — but at what cost to the truth and our future? I delve into the dangers of ongoing deficit spending and why this path, while comfortable now, spells long-term disaster.

I also share nine real-life examples where people are confronted with this truth vs comfort dilemma — in the workplace, in families, in leadership, and even in how we treat our children. I challenge you to examine whether your daily choices are driven by principle or by the desire to avoid discomfort.

Plus, I touch on my ongoing excitement about industrial hemp and its potential to revolutionise industries and solve major problems — and why we must Make Australia Hemp Aware and Make America Hemp Aware (MAHA x 2).

Remember: your values shape your reality. Are you living by truth, or hiding in comfort?
