    Ep 28 - From Burnout to Business Freedom: Shane Guy’s Entrepreneurial Journey

    Shane Guy sees business opportunities everywhere. An empty shop, an inefficient process or a problem that needs solving can quickly become the beginning of his next idea. Shane calls this constant flow of possibilities “the entrepreneur’s curse.” In this episode of Your #1 Business Podcast, Shane joins Antoine Vidal to share the lessons he has learned from starting and growing multiple businesses across the trades, swimming pool and technology industries. Shane speaks openly about scaling too quickly, building a large team, saying yes to too many opportunities and eventually burning out. He also shares how he rebuilt after difficult setbacks, including a business copying his branding, advertising and operating model. The conversation explores why business owners need to become comfortable saying no, surround themselves with trusted people and recognise when they need help. Shane also discusses the creation of ServiGo, an AI-powered business system designed to help trade and service businesses automate repetitive work, improve communication and give owners more of their time back. In this episode: • Why Shane describes himself as a serial business creator • The danger of scaling before the business is ready • Why saying no can be more powerful than saying yes • Recovering from burnout, betrayal and difficult business setbacks • Building trusted brands rather than simply chasing revenue • Knowing your strengths and bringing in the right people • How automation and AI are changing small business • Creating systems that allow owners to step away • Why business owners should never struggle alone This is an honest conversation about entrepreneurship, resilience, reinvention and learning how to build a business that supports your life rather than controls it.

    Trailer - Turning Entrepreneurial Energy Into Growth | Shayne Guy

    Some entrepreneurs can walk past an empty shop and immediately imagine the business that could operate inside it. In this trailer from Shayne Guy describes what they call the “entrepreneur’s curse” the constant stream of ideas, opportunities and possibilities that comes with knowing how to start something. They share why the early stages of building a business can be both the hardest and the most enjoyable, how easy it is to become consumed by the excitement of a new idea, and why recognising your own limitations is an important part of growth. For Shayne Guy, creating the vision comes naturally. The next challenge is finding the right partners, coaches, programs and people to help turn that vision into a business capable of reaching its next stage.

    Ep 27 - More Than a Sports Agent: Supporting Athletes On and Off the Field | Brent Stowers

    Brent Stowers took an unconventional path into the legal profession. After beginning his working life with the Queensland Police, Brent moved through sales, government procurement, mining contracts and commercial management before completing his law degree and building an international legal career. His work eventually took him around the world, handling major commercial matters across South America, Botswana, Canada and India. However, after years of working for large organisations, Brent decided to take the risk of building something of his own. In this episode of Your # 1 Business Podcast, Brent joins Antoine Vidal to discuss his journey from global mining lawyer to business owner and co-founder of Moxie Sports Management. Moxie was created after Brent and his business partners encountered talented young athletes who were struggling to navigate professional sport without the family, financial, cultural or organisational support available to others. Brent explains why athletes need more than someone negotiating their contracts. They need advocates, trusted relationships, practical life skills and a plan for what happens when their sporting careers end. The conversation explores the importance of building a business around clearly defined values, choosing the right business partners, preparing carefully before launching and having the courage to hold difficult conversations. Brent also shares why Moxie deliberately limits the number of athletes each agent represents, how the agency is creating a genuine community across different sports and why success should never be measured only by what happens on the field. This is a conversation about business partnerships, athlete welfare, sustainable growth and building an organisation with a clear sense of purpose. Want to Share Your Story on the Podcast?
