The People Around Us
(Formerly The 'Some Elbow Room' Podcast)
There are so many ways to live a life and this podcast is testament to that!
Our conversations are honest, fun, reflective and interesting and we hope to inspire our listeners who may be a bit stuck in their work to stop and think about what they really want in life - to create “some elbow room”.
Specifically, to put some time aside to really think about:
(1) How their current job suits their personality
(2) The impact it is having on their own wellbeing & happiness and
(3) The influence it is having on the relationships most important in their life.
Our guest’s stories unfold key moments of change. Often influenced by their work, we talk about how those changes have impacted their lives. Whether our guest recognised an opportunity or had a plan, said yes instead of no or just fell on their feet - their lives often turned for the better! We also discuss how being part of a group or community is important to feeling that sense of belonging and how much belonging influences one’s happiness and wellbeing. This podcast may even inspire you to seek it out if you don’t have it in your life. Our guests show there are many ways to live a life and finding a balance between ambition, hard work and fun is the place to be!
This is what we explore from all directions and more on the “The People Around Us” Podcast. Enjoy!
The People Around Us
Sport, Law, Community & Passion - George Haros
George Haros has earnt everything he has in life thanks to his work ethic, talent, intelligence and overall charisma .
Not everything has come naturally for him, but as an extremally capable person you won't find a harder worker especially once he decides he wants something with no stone left unturned. Along the way, George doesn't lose sight of others around him and is very aware of the broader community along with his own - which is vast - always looking out for those close to him to bring along for the ride. His network is everything and he loves them as much as they love him.
As a very capable, natural Lawyer who loves his sport, it seemed inevitable that he would find himself representing elite sports stars in some way, shape or form. After a short career in AFL Player Management he has been at the forefront of litigation when Adam Saad from the St. Kilda Football Club found himself under scrutiny for allegedly taking a banned substance and Andrew Thorburn almost become the CEO of Essendon Football Club. However, it was when Israel Folau made international news after expressing his religious beliefs sparking a debate that continues to polarize Australian sport to this day, where he found out what it was like to be an elite Lawyer in the spotlight.
As an expert is Employment Law as well George's fully rounded skills and experience make him one of Melbourne's most sought after Lawyers.
George loves his mates and family with every part of his being and continues to add his story which is a great one so far with more ups than downs living a life that this podcast is all about.
Enjoy the story of George Gabriel Haros.
