99. Average Joes with Wayne Taylor

Welcome to Episode 99 – Average Joes with Wayne Taylor

 

A plumber and a real estate agent walked into a bar… 

 

It has all the makings of the start of a great joke, but what happened is anything but. In 2018, mates Wayne and Eliot put the call out to men of the Sunshine Coast to join them for a beer, chicken wings and chat. And it didn’t take long before blokes started rocking up – and Average Joes was born. 

 

Average Joes is a movement that inspires men to step above average. Through weekly meet-ups, men can engage in meaningful discussions about topics that matter to them. Not only does it provide a sense of community for men, but it also helps them to find their voice, learn and grow. 

 

In this episode, Wayne shares:

• The 3 types of father: inactive, reactive and proactive
• How Average Joes started
• What an Average Joes meet-up looks like
• What it takes to be a host for Average Joes
• A moment that helped Wayne realise he was doing something special
• The future for Average Joes

Key Quotes:

 

“If you choose to be the inactive father, trust me the media will step in and father your child.”

 

“I didn’t realise that as a whole men were lonely.”

 

“I wanna be a men’s movement that raises a generation of men that wanna be givers.”
