  1. The Problem With Relying On Accountants To Make You Profits (And How To Fix This)

    The Problem With Relying On Accountants To Make You Profits (And How To Fix This)

    Gavin was a CFO who left the corporate world to build businesses. He's scaled multiple companies to 7-8 figures and noticed a pattern - most business owners leave accountant meetings MORE confused than when they walked in. They're living in fear over money, making slow decisions, and self-sabotaging growth because the fundamentals aren't right. In this episode, we discussed: Why business owners self-sabotage growth (they're already on an anxiety roller coaster - won't grow into more pain)The 6 numbers that matter whether you're doing $200K or $30M (same game, different levels)Cash flow forecast that shows your bank balance 12 months in advance - 90% accurate, no more surprise billsWhy "you can't just make profit" - it's the outcome when you manage income and expenses (forces systems thinking)The bank balance roller coaster isn't about performance - it's different cycles colliding (weekly, monthly, quarterly expenses hitting at once) Plus: why making money requires risk but keeping money requires a completely different approach (most entrepreneurs don't switch), and the wealthy business partner who drives an unassuming car. If you've been confused by your numbers, avoiding looking at your bank account, or stuck at a revenue ceiling - this episode simplifies everything.

  3. Intimacy Expert: You're F*cking Like You Make Babies, Not To You Make Love - Here's The Difference

    Intimacy Expert: You're F*cking Like You Make Babies, Not To You Make Love - Here's The Difference

    Susan Bratton has written 34 books on sex, done over 1000 threesomes, and can tell what kind of orgasm someone's having just by the sound. "Low libido is b******t," she says. Most people are having the wrong kind of sex and don't even know it.  In this conversation, Susan breaks down why it takes longer than you think to get good together, what most people get completely wrong about intimacy, and the one thing that makes sex feel empty (hint: it's not technique). We talk about the Heart-Penis Connection, what she learned between threesome #1 and #1000, why relationship values matter more than you think, and her rules for navigating open relationships (spoiler: she tells 95% of people to stay monogamous). Plus: the truth about STIs, finding your weirdos, and why you need to stop filtering yourself around people who can't handle the real you. If you're interested in actually great sex and honest relationships, this conversation will change how you think about intimacy. ---- Connect with Blake  Website: www.blakeworrallthompson.com Instagram: @blakeworrallthompson  Get your FREE Relationship Check In Guide https://www.blakeworrallthompson.com/relationshipcheckin Check out ‘Life By Design’ 12 week program https://www.blakeworrallthompson.com/lifebydesign  Switch Nutrition Discount Code: BWT  https://switchnutrition.com.au/discount/BWT?rfsn=8810906.8fa6240

  4. Financial Expert: 'Time Is Money' Is A Lie That Limits Your Income (Here's The Truth)

    Financial Expert: 'Time Is Money' Is A Lie That Limits Your Income (Here's The Truth)

    Jason Graystone retired at 29. Since then, he's met three types of people - wealthy heirs who were drug addicts and miserable, burnt-out entrepreneurs making hundreds of thousands monthly but keeping nothing, and spiritually fulfilled people trapped by limited income. None were happy. None were free. In this episode, we break down why "time is money" is a lie that caps your income, why you were freer at 7 years old than you are now, and why most people sacrifice today's happiness for tomorrow's profit - and tomorrow never comes. Jason shares the guy he met chasing $50 million just to impress an ex-boss, why he was "hero dad" when absent for weeks but "ignoring family" when home 10 minutes, and how one kitchen whiteboard solved everything. Plus: why people don't actually want money (they want freedom but don't know it), what happened when financial freedom became boring, and why mental freedom must come before financial freedom. If you've been chasing someone else's definition of success, this conversation might change how you think about money, time, and what you're actually working toward.

    "Grew Up On Australia's Most DANGEROUS Street! 20 Years In Prison, Now The Country's Top Mindset Coach"

    Episode #181 - LBD Podcast Jeffrey Morgan grew up on Everly Street - one of Australia's most notorious streets - where his father was a gambler, his mother was a drinker, and violence was the only discipline he knew. He ran away at 12, spent 20 years in prison as a bank robber, and lost both parents to cancer and both siblings to suicide. Now the 2024 Australian Mindset Coach of the Year, Jeffrey has helped 935,000+ Australians transform their lives using the same operational skills that made him a successful criminal—just redirected into strategy and personal development. We broke down why prison felt like safety, how his father's abuse came from being abused himself, what really happens your first night in a cell with 12 men, and why saying "change is hard" keeps you trapped. Jeffrey's philosophy: your past is an explanation, not an excuse. Stop accepting your life and start designing it.

    I Stopped Hustling & My Business EXPLODED!' Why Energy Management Beats Time Management | Nick Slater

    Nick Slater didn't take the traditional path to becoming a voice in personal development. He went from radio to acting on multi-million dollar sets in North America, then walked away to build a brand on something most people ignore - energy management over time management. Now, the creator behind "Becoming" with a fiercely loyal following, Nick is calling out what keeps high-performers trapped: the belief that hustling harder will fix everything. In this episode, we break down why your energy speaks before you say a word, how prioritizing mood over your to-do list actually grew his business, why the eastern suburbs of Sydney's "success culture" nearly destroyed him, and what happened when he stopped chasing external achievements and built happiness from the inside out. Nick opens up about: Cheating on his ex and the shame that tortured him for years Losing his dad to brain cancer at 29 and using meditation to mourn before death arrived The conflict resolution style that made him know Zoe was "the one" after two years Why he's designing his entire life around being present for his future kids on the Gold Coast - not trapped in Bondi's anxiety-driven energy. If you've ever been told that success requires sacrifice, that content needs perfect production quality, or that real men don't need emotional outlets, this conversation might completely change how you build both your career and your life. --- Connect with Blake  Website: www.blakeworrallthompson.com Instagram: @blakeworrallthompson  Get your FREE Relationship Check In Guide https://www.blakeworrallthompson.com/relationshipcheckin Check out ‘Life By Design’ 12 week program https://www.blakeworrallthompson.com/lifebydesign  Switch Nutrition Discount Code: BWT  https://switchnutrition.com.au/discount/BWT?rfsn=8810906.8fa6240

    "The Hidden Emotion Ruining Your Relationships, Career, Everything! Why Shame Is The Real Problem"

    In today's episode, trauma therapist Annalie Howling reveals why shame is the root of all suffering—and why everything else is just a band-aid. If you don't deal with shame, nothing else will work. From a violent childhood to peaceful parenting, Annalie shares her transformation through EMDR therapy, recovering from self-harm, and building an unapologetic life at 44. She opens up about postnatal anxiety that had her brain skipping to "she is dead" every day, the publishing nightmare that almost broke her, and the friends who disappeared the moment she actually got divorced. Plus: why she's fiercely calling out "snake oil sellers" purposefully profiteering from others' pain, the non-negotiable boundaries protecting her daughter's energy, and why your trauma isn't an excuse to be a dick.  Raw, unfiltered wisdom on breaking generational cycles and living completely yourself. --- For more information on Annalie Howling  Instagram: @annaliehowling Book sessions with Annalie at: https://annaliehowling.com/work-with-annalie/ Connect with Blake  Website: www.blakeworrallthompson.com Instagram: @blakeworrallthompson  Get your FREE Relationship Check In Guide https://www.blakeworrallthompson.com/relationshipcheckin Check out ‘Life By Design’ 12 week program https://www.blakeworrallthompson.com/lifebydesign  Switch Nutrition Discount Code: BWT  https://switchnutrition.com.au/discount/BWT?rfsn=8810906.8fa6240
