November 19, 2024 Episode 342: Matt Taylor
Matt Taylor began his journey in strength training just before his 13th birthday when, weighing only 99 pounds, he decided to pick up a barbell. Quickly captivated by the pursuit of strength, he discovered powerlifting—a sport that not only resonated with him deeply but also revealed a talent he never knew he had.

A few years later, Matt set a national squat record and won his division at the Powerlifting World Championships in 2014. This transformation, from feeling "invisible" to becoming known for something within his social circle, gave him a newfound sense of purpose.
In 2022, Matt was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition that forced him to reevaluate his training goals, including his dreams of squatting 500 pounds and deadlifting 600 pounds.
Reflecting on his early training years, he recognized mistakes made in assuming "time was on his side." This realization reshaped his approach as a coach, motivating him to help others avoid similar pitfalls and optimize their strength journeys.
Since beginning his coaching career in 2014, Matt has worked with over 4,000 lifters, guiding them in their pursuit of strength. His current focus is on helping individuals who have yet to fulfill their athletic potential achieve personal records in their first powerlifting meets, all while training efficiently—spending less than five hours per week in the gym—so they can excel in other areas of life, including family, work, and personal commitments.
In addition to his extensive professional expertise,
Matt actively engages with a community of over 4,000 members and maintains a presence on Instagram, where he shares insights and connects with lifters.

November 14, 2024 Episode 340: Brent Marshall
Brent Marshall’s journey from humble beginnings to industry powerhouse is a story fueled by resilience, passion, and an unyielding drive to make a difference.
Full Podcast Link: https://bit.ly/BrentMarshall
Growing up in the small town of Hope, BC, Brent learned the value of hard work early on. His parents juggled multiple jobs—his mother as a homemaker and his father as a miner and butcher—often working 16-hour days to build a better life. Inspired by their dedication, young Brent took on household responsibilities and his first jobs while excelling in school, quickly building a foundation of tenacity that would propel him forward.
At just 15, Brent began working full-time after school, pushing through long hours without losing momentum. By 18, he had saved enough to purchase a Mustang GT Cobra, fueling his passion for cars and kickstarting a journey that would define his life. He quickly gained hands-on experience at Equity Silver Mines, becoming the youngest employee and taking on intense 12-hour shifts while learning cutting, welding, and electrical work. He even joined the mine rescue team and earned his Class 1 Professional Driving License, pushing his limits in every direction.
But a severe car accident during his university years forced Brent to pause. During his lengthy rehabilitation, he found purpose in volunteering with special needs children, a profoundly fulfilling experience that shaped his compassion and desire to give back. Yet, with bills mounting, he made a bold pivot to car sales, a move that would reveal the perfect synergy between his love of cars and his talent for connecting with people. Brent quickly rose to prominence, becoming the #1 General Motors salesperson in BC, a role that opened doors for him to manage and transform dealerships across Canada.
Brent’s career soon took him to Prince George, where he was tasked with revitalizing a struggling dealership. Within 60 days, Brent’s leadership made the dealership the largest-volume operation in BC, a title it held for nearly a decade. From there, he opened multiple dealerships, including Hyundai and Nissan franchises, expanding his vision and influence in the auto industry.
But Brent’s contributions extended beyond business. A dedicated philanthropist, he donated $1.2 million to build a children’s wing at the local UNHBC hospital. His community-first approach redefined his dealerships as beacons of social responsibility, giving back to the communities they served.
Brent’s business ventures include:
Omni.auto
BDS Solutions
Eyes On Auto
Remax Office (Highest market share award within a year of acquisition)
Tempest Aviation Group (Awarded a sole Boeing rotable contract)
Geotech Drilling
Northland Dodge, Nissan, and Hyundai
Skaha Ford
3Mining
CCJS Consulting Ltd. and CCJS Commercial
Dealership Solutions.ca
DCC Dream Car Charities
V2R Construction Group Inc.
Marshall Productions
PG Motorsports Park
Workout Bar
Autobody Shops
Liquor Warehouse Beer & Wine Stores
With a deep commitment to efficient processes and disruptive marketing, Brent has left an indelible mark on the automotive industry. Yet, it’s his dedication to leaving a positive legacy—and his four beloved children—that keep his engine running.
Brent Marshall’s journey is far from over, and he’s just getting started.

October 31, 2024 Episode 333: Jamie Waller
Jamie Waller is dyslexic and a serial entrepreneur, philanthropist, and investor. Growing up in London’s East End, teachers told Jamie he wouldn’t amount to anything. However, he benefited from the supportive efforts of the Imps Motorcycle Display Team and the Prince’s Trust. Despite leaving school with no qualifications he started multiple businesses, became a multimillionaire in his twenties and featured in a prime-time TV show that followed him starting his first business.

Currently, Jamie owns a venture capital fund, has thirteen companies under management and employs over 1,000 people worldwide. He is the Founder of The Prince’s Trust Enterprise Network, an organisation committed to empowering less advantaged youth as established by his Majesty the King of England.

Jamie is the author of Unsexy Business (2017) and The Dyslexic Edge (5th July 2024), the idea for which came from a conversation with one of the most famous dyslexics on earth, Sir Richard Branson during a cycle ride in early 2022. The Dyslexic Edge challenges the narrative that views dyslexia as a deficit or impediment to success, presenting compelling research and case studies from interviewing some of the worlds most successful dyslexics (Paul Orfelia, Theo Paphitis, Duncan Bannatyne and Kelly Hoppen to name a few), to demonstrate quite the opposite. By delving into the lives and experiences of some of the best-known dyslexic minds worldwide, Jamie and Dr Helen Taylor highlight the distinct advantage that dyslexic thinking brings.

In 2018, Cranfield University awarded Jamie Entrepreneur of the Year. In 2023 he accepted the Lifetime Achievement Award on behalf of His Majesty King Charles III and The Prince’s Trust at the Business Champion Awards.

When he’s not at work, Jamie can be found embracing some of the world's most exciting adventures. This year he’s taking part in the United Arab Emirates desert challenge, in 2025 he will compete in Africa Eco Race and in 2026 is going into Space with Branson’s team at Virgin Galactic.
