What does it actually look like when the second engine is running?
In this episode, Linda Tempesta hosts from inside a caravan in Inverloch — her kids at the splash park, her investment properties quietly doing their thing in the background — while she puts Tom Haigh in the hot seat.
Tom is the author of The Second Engine and the usual host of this show. Today, Linda asks the questions he doesn't always get asked.
Why do smart, successful business owners stay stuck? And what separates the ones who've built genuine financial freedom from those still running flat out with nothing to catch them if they slow down?
In this episode:
● Why earning more doesn't automatically create freedom — and what does
● The Full-Throttler vs the Sailor: two kinds of business owners, and the one decision that separates them
● Why success can make inaction easier, not harder
● The identity trap: why building assets can feel threatening even when you know it's the right move
● Tom admits he's still partly a Full-Throttler — and what that costs him
● Linda's honest take on working parenthood, financial risk and why she took the leap early
If you've built something you're proud of but the freedom you were working toward hasn't quite arrived — this episode was made for you.
