    Guest Episode: Kim Crossman - How Motherhood Led Her to Reinvent Her Career & Start A Business

    Kim Crossman has spent more than 20 years building a career in entertainment... but becoming a mum has changed everything. In this episode of Make It Happen, we sit down with Kim to talk about what happens when the career you’ve spent decades building suddenly isn’t the only thing defining your future. We talk about the uncertainty of an industry where your next job is never guaranteed, learning to back yourself through change, and how becoming a mum to Coco led Kim to rethink what she wanted her next chapter to look like. Kim opens up about her experience with postpartum prolapse and how one of the hardest periods of her life exposed a problem she couldn’t stop thinking about. That problem eventually led her to become a co-founder of Vital Bits - a business dedicated to postpartum recovery and wellness products. We get into career reinvention, starting a business for the first time and using a personal brand to open doors in an entirely new industry.

    9 Habits That Build Real Wealth (Not Just Make You Look Rich)

    Most people think building wealth is about earning more. But what you do with your money matters just as much as how much you make. In this episode I’m sharing my 9 money habits that have shaped how I’ve built my wealth and how I think about money altogether. I’ve learned that looking wealthy and being wealthy are two very different things. From refusing to spend $20 on a drink while owning a $300,000 G-Wagon, to realising that chasing more money was costing me friendships - these are the lessons I wish I’d learned sooner.

    (112) How One Post Made $3.3M (Questions I've Never Answered)

    I’ve built and sold multi-million-dollar businesses. But no one’s ever asked me these questions. In this episode, Podcast Producer Holli steps out from behind the scenes to turn the mic on me - asking me the unfiltered questions no one’s ever asked. From paying $300,000 for Kylie Jenner to promote my shapewear brand, to selling the business for $3.3 million, navigating the public fallout of Celebration Box, breaking into supermarket shelves with Brewe, and now helping more than 4,000 entrepreneurs across New Zealand and Australia through Make It Happen - this is the side of business you don’t normally see online. I get candid about making millions, the decisions that backfired, losing friends because of success, dealing with stalkers, and what REALLY happened behind the scenes when everything blew up publicly… We also get into the lessons I’ve learned from building, scaling and selling multi-million-dollar businesses, taking calculated risks, breaking into FMCG and supermarkets, and why I believe moving fast beats waiting for everything to be perfect. Got a burning business question you’ve always wanted to ask me? Drop it in the comments below and we might just answer it in the next Behind The Business episode.

    (111) Guest: Brittany McNabb - How I lost 40kg and Kept It Off

    You are intelligent. You know what to do… so why can’t you make yourself do it? In this episode I explore why weight loss and business burnout have far less to do with motivation than most people believe. I sat down with Brittany McNabb from Mind, Body, Britt - who lost over 40kg, built a successful personal training business and now helps thousands of women transform not only their bodies but the way they think. With a background in psychotherapy, she explains why willpower isn't the problem - and what actually is. We unpack the surprising role your nervous system plays in weight loss, the mindset successful entrepreneurs and athletes have in common and the psychology behind why you keep failing (even when you know better).  If your goal is improving your health, building confidence or creating a business you love, this conversation is packed with practical insights that apply far beyond fitness.

    (#107) The Life and Money Advice I Would Give My Younger Self (That Nobody Told Me)

    This is the conversation I wish someone had sat me down and had with me when I was starting out.

You just need to decide and start. Ready to take that first step?
