In my season finale I talk to everyone's favourite french chef, Manu Feildel.

Most of you will know Manu as Channel 7 star and the host of My Kitchen Rules.

I know him as a passionate and super smart business person who has experienced more than the usual highs and lows of starting a new business.

What started as a simple catchphrase ' Where's the Sauce' is fast becoming one Australia's favourite food brands - 'ByManu'.

This isnt the story of some celebrity putting their name to a brand and clipping the ticket, this is the real ad very raw story of a guy who has put everything he has into creating something special for his famliies future.

PS: And for those that always ask me, yes Manu is a champion bloke!

Definitely my most ‘interesting’ episode so far, talking brand building, online marketing and following your dreams with health and fitness guru Kim Beach (aka. my wife). 

I’ve been lucky enough to have a ringside seat to most of her phenomenal journey from being a disillusioned secretary at the NAB at aged 18, to building a global community with over 750,000 followers, sales in 16 countries and helping women everywhere achieve their dreams and goals. 

Grab a cup of tea, sit back enjoy Kim’s story in her own words….

Sandy's business journey over the past few years has been nothing short of incredible!

From dealing with the sudden passing  of her husband to becoming the Managing Director of Planit Australia, she had to negotiate families, grief, COVID and the challenge of regenerating a business and a culture that was well overdue.

She manages to do all this with a big smile and her signature positive attitude!

It was my pleasure to sit down with her recently to talk through her inspiring journey. 

From humble beginnings as ‘Pak-Rite’ in the Adelaide Hills, Salute has grown to be one of the largest distributors in SA, covering all key markets across the state in the packaging, cleaning, and hygiene industry. 

Today on the podcast I’m running with Bronte Hough, all round great bloke, owner of Salute and the driving force behind this incredible business growth story. 

Bronte talks about the importance of team, strategy, growth, acquisitions and the importance of what he calls ‘The Salute Way’. 

If you are looking to grow your independent business this episode is a MUST LISTEN! 

Thanks, Bronte, for sharing your journey!

Super excited to release episode 4 today with my very special guest, Marcia Rodgers, Managing Director of Tensens.  

Marcia’s found herself working in the family business aged 17, initially being recruited to helping her Dad sort out his accounts. 

From there she was thrown in the deep end of running & navigating a family-owned business before she and husband Ben purchased the business a 12 years later. 

Marcia has faced and dealt with some incredible challenges as a family business leader, and I am proud to share in this episode how she has met these challenges head on and, along with Ben, created the thriving business Tensens is today. 

In this episode I sit down with Shane Leigh, owner and MD of TBC Distribution, one of Australia's leading independant B2B distributors in the cleaning, packaging & hygiene markets.

Hear Shane's journey (in his words) from 'washed up footy player' aged 21 to today where is a respected voice in the independant business space, with ownership & leadership positons in 6 different SME's across Australia.

Shane only knows one way when it comes to business and thats straight ahead and hard....

Sit back, grab a drink and learn how Shane builds teams through loyalty and trust - and why these values will always be the cornerstone of any business he is involved in.

In my first episode I sit down with Mark Capelin, owner of Tribe Social Fitness and Fitness Industry Leader, to talk through his journey from Ex NRL Player at the age of 21 to owning an operating one of the most successful health and fitness businesses in Australia.
