Welcome to The 4 Keys Podcast, where we delve into the transformative journey of business owners seeking to improve both their work and life. I'm Andrew, your host, and guide on this adventure.
In this podcast, we delve into The 4 Keys Method, a unique and powerful framework specifically designed to help entrepreneurs achieve balance, success, and fulfilment in every aspect of their lives.
But first, let me share a bit about my own personal journey. For over a decade, I travelled the globe as a management consultant, assisting corporate leaders in building winning teams. However, in 2017, my life took an unexpected turn when my wife left me. This event prompted me to embark on a personal transformation, leading me to walk away from my lucrative consulting career and focus on redefining success on my own terms.
In the midst of this transformation, I had a vision: to share my journey with other business owners. I believed prioritising health and well-being would be the cornerstone of our collective success. Thus, I began documenting and sharing my experiences with peers, leading to remarkable results for myself and others.
Through the implementation of The 4 Keys Method, I underwent a remarkable transformation. I went from feeling mentally exhausted and physically unwell to experiencing newfound vitality and happiness within just 12 weeks. Encouraged by these results, I formed a mastermind group of like-minded entrepreneurs who sought to join me on this journey.
In January 2019, I published my book, "The 4 Keys," which quickly became a bestseller, further solidifying the impact of this transformative approach. Nine months later, my wife and I reconciled, embarking on a new adventure together in Prague, where we welcomed our fourth child into the world in 2022.
Now, I lead a mastermind dedicated to teaching business owners how to achieve balance in their health, relationships, and mindset while growing their businesses. When I'm not coaching entrepreneurs, you can find me on the ice as a professional hockey coach, mentoring startups in Prague, or investing in innovative ventures.
Join me on The 4 Keys Podcast as we explore the keys to unlocking success and fulfilment in business and life. Let's embark on this journey together and build the business and life you love.

Be Intentional About Rest & 5 Ways to Power CEO Flow
Flow and getting in the zone was my secret weapon, whether I was on the ice playing hockey, deeply immersed in a project, or captivating an audience through public speaking.
But, like all powerful tools, flow has its pitfalls. For me, the side effect of such intense focus was exhaustion — a kind of weariness that seeped into my bones and left me drained, especially when I needed to switch gears and be present for my family.
It's a familiar narrative for many high-achievers: giving every task, whether work or workout, a hundred per cent. When everything feels like it's set to the highest stakes, the pressure can be relentless.
