    After 18 years in the travel industry, Jase Pashley decided it was time to turn a long-held dream into reality and start his own corporate travel business. In this episode of Your Number 1 Business Podcast, Jase shares what prompted him to step out on his own, the early stages of launching his business and why personal service remains at the heart of everything he does. He discusses the importance of understanding a client’s business, building relationships through networking and remaining resilient through quiet periods, setbacks and the everyday challenges of business ownership. Jase also challenges common travel myths, including whether booking online is always cheaper, whether corporate travel management is only for large companies and why a travel manager’s role continues long after the initial booking. From customer service and cash flow to networking, work-life balance and backing yourself, this is an honest conversation about building a business around experience, trust and genuine human connection.

    Ep 24 - Backing Yourself: Luke Frederick on Leadership, Opportunity and Quest Springfield Central

    In this episode of Your Number One Business Podcast, host Antoine Vidal sits down with Luke Frederick, part owner of Quest Springfield Central, to hear the real story behind his journey into business ownership. Luke shares how a decision to leave behind the routine of tree farm work led him to Canada, where he discovered hospitality, leadership, and a love for creating great guest experiences. From there, his journey took him through regional Victoria, Quest Ipswich, business awards, career development, and eventually into part ownership of Quest Springfield Central. This conversation explores what it really takes to move from employee to business owner, the importance of having the right people around you, why leadership is built through tough moments, and why there may never be a perfect time to take the next step. Luke’s story is a reminder that opportunity often appears when preparation, support, courage, and timing come together.
