    Dire prognosis to elite personal trainer & single fatherhood

    At four years old, Tom Haxby’s parents were told he would never walk. Diagnosed with Perthes disease, his pelvis effectively dissolving, he spent years of his childhood confined to full-body plaster casts and stilts. Today, Tom is an elite personal trainer and a single father operating on an uncompromising standard of discipline. In this episode, we strip away the ego of the fitness industry to examine the raw mechanics of resilience. Tom details the reality of his childhood, the daily grind of raising a child solo while running a business, and how losing his best mate to stage four cancer at 28 permanently dismantled his tolerance for excuses. This is a clinical look at what it actually takes to build a life from a dire medical prognosis.

    Success, faith, and the conversation we didn't expect

    What started as a conversation about what success is turned into a completely unscripted deep dive into faith, accountability, and the actual cost of ambition. With Uncle Luke unavailable, Producer Tim was supposed to ask the questions but he just took over instead! He talks about the reality of stepping into his faith to change his life, and we also explore the price of ambition, how scaling a business takes a toll on relationships, the moment success was redefined forever for Heath after Poppy’s diagnosis and the only currency that actually matters: Time.

    Burnout, A Broken Marriage & Building Green Connect

    Ryan Frahm's story isn't a highlight reel, it's a blueprint for surviving the dark side of building a business. From starting out as a sole trader with just $1,200 to his name and a van bought with money borrowed from his parents, to running Green Connect, a soon-to-be $10M tier-two commercial powerhouse, Ryan has lived the extreme highs and lows of the Australian trade industry. But it came with a heavy price: 80-hour weeks, total burnout, and a marriage pushed to absolute breaking point. In this episode Ryan opens up about the moment his wife cam home "rattled", the identity crisis that follows a business collapse, and the radical accountability it took to rebuild, not just the company, but himself.

    SLFMADE: "What a w****r." I bought a bright green Lamborghini

    Everyone sees the bright green car, but nobody sees the twenty years of unseen sacrifices required to build a scalable business. In this episode, we break away from the studio to ride shotgun in Heath's bright green Lamborghini to dissect the psychology of wealth creation, the reality of public judgement, and what it truly takes to transition from a trade subcontractor to a compounding property portfolio. Heath opens up completely unfiltered on the "self-made" paradox, why his controversial number plate is actually a reminder to stay humble, and the raw truth about whether a luxury supercar can ever truly fill an internal void. If you are an operator grinding to reach the next level, this is a heavy dose of real-world business psychology. Key topics we cover: The "Self-Made" Illusion: Why no successful journey is ever truly built alone.The Price of Scaling: Shifting from laying tiles to building a scalable business network.The 5-Minute High: The honest truth about material success and internal insecurities.The Ultimate Goal: Shifting focus from external metrics to teaching the next generation what is possible.CHAPTERS: (00:00) The "self-made" paradox (01:45) The story behind the number plate (04:04) Navigating public judgement (09:51) The Friday night sacrifice (14:26) Scaling a business to create wealth (21:54) The kitchen table trauma (25:00) Does money actually fill the void?
