    #16 Why Investing In Things Your Can't Afford Is A Good Thing, & Tiny Shift To Build Millionaire Traits As Young Entrepreneurs Building Wealth & Financial Freedom

    What if the reason you’re not at the next level yet is because you’re still making decisions as the old version of yourself? A lot of growth isn’t about learning another tactic. It’s about noticing the standards, habits and decisions that no longer match where you say you want to go — then deliberately choosing differently. In this episode, we unpack what it actually looks like to raise your standards in real life, including: Why removing the wrong situation can instantly give you back energy, focus and momentumHow investing in uncomfortable opportunities can expand what you believe is possible for yourselfWhy tiny identity shifts — from being more punctual to building better systems — can create bigger second- and third-order changes than you expect If you know there’s an area of your life where the future version of you would make a different decision, don’t keep waiting until you “feel ready.” Listen now and start acting like that version of yourself today.

    Quick question: What would change in your life if you stopped making decisions based on who you are today — and started making them as the person you want to become?

In this episode, we unpack what happens when you start making decisions from that future version of yourself, including: Why removing one draining situation can completely change your energy, focus and excitement for lifeHow asking “What would the next-level version of me choose?” can push you towards opportunities you’d normally talk yourself out ofWhy changing tiny behaviours and standards can eventually change your identity — and create unexpected second- and third-order benefits If there’s an area of your life where you already know you’re playing smaller than the person you want to become, listen to this episode now and challenge the standard you’ve been accepting.

    #11 | A Boring Week in The Life of Young Entrepreneurs Grinding For Freedom | Birthday Celebration, Changing Business Money Models and Playing More While Building Wealth

    In this episode of Grinding For Freedom, we talk about birthdays, moving house, client refunds, business plateaus, and the uncomfortable truth about building a business that still depends on hunting for new sales every month. Anthony reflects on turning 26, moving into the new Cambridge house, spending time with family, and realising how much more he wants to be present with his parents as they get older. Taig shares the behind-the-scenes reality of moving into Cambridge, setting up the new house, deciding which office becomes the podcast studio, and preparing to finally improve the visual quality of the podcast setup. Fox gives an update on getting ill at the worst possible time, trying to prioritise the right work, improving the review process for his books, and resisting the urge to escape to another country now that the UK weather is finally decent. The biggest business theme in this episode is the frustration of working hard, growing internally, but not seeing the financial rewards catch up yet. Anthony opens up about the reality of being stuck around the same income level for a long time, feeling the delay between personal growth and financial growth, and why the current business model needs to evolve. The main shift: building a business with more predictable recurring revenue, instead of constantly relying on one-off sales, cold email leads, and the pressure to close new clients every month. In this episode, we cover:Why moving into a new environment can create a fresh sense of momentumThe reality of refunding a client who wasn’t doing their partWhy client complaints can still reveal useful lessons, even when the client is wrongThe frustration of working hard without seeing income growWhy relying on cold email leads can make business feel unpredictableThe difference between one-off sales and recurring revenueWhy a monthly baseline could create more space, creativity, and profitHow the right offer model can change the whole businessWhy Anthony wants more play, fun, and non-work experiences in his lifeThe tension between grinding hard and building a business that actually gives you freedom If you’ve ever felt like you’re working harder than ever, but the business still feels too fragile, this episode will hit home.

    #10 Reaching a State of Abundance, Not Caring About The Money While Building Wealth and Building Self Confidence On The Road To Freedom

    In this episode of Grinding For Freedom, we talk about the weird but powerful shift that happens when success stops feeling like something you need to force, and starts feeling like something you’re already moving toward. Anthony shares a raw update on having an emotional breakthrough after watching a video about entrepreneurs giving back to their families, crying, praying, and feeling a deeper sense of gratitude, certainty, and hunger for the future. From there, we get into the difference between real discipline and unnecessary self-punishment. Because sometimes the thing holding you back isn’t laziness. It’s the mental cage you create when you convince yourself that one missed routine, one imperfect day, or one small mistake means you’re no longer on track. Fox also shares how he’s moved from cruising back into grinding, with more momentum around books, calories, modeling, paddle, and reviving old projects with AI-generated cover concepts. Taig shares updates from moving back to the UK, preparing for Cambridge, running a client workshop on future-proofing expert content in the age of AI, and the surprising lesson from teaching something he’d only just started learning himself. In this episode, we cover:The difference between discipline and self-punishmentWhy one imperfect day doesn’t define your futureHow to stop creating mental barriers to your own successWhy guilt can be useful sometimes, but destructive when misplacedThe feeling of being aligned with your work againWhy focusing on the inputs can make the outcome feel inevitableHow Fox is using AI to revive old book covers and improve publishing performanceWhy enjoying the work can lead to better results than obsessing over moneyHow Taig and Anthony taught world-building, storytelling, and human-led content in their AI workshopWhy sharing honest lessons in real time can build more trust than pretending to be the guru If you’ve ever felt like you need to be perfect to be successful, this episode is a reminder that discipline matters, but beating yourself up over every tiny mistake is not the same as being committed.
