It starts with a simple question: “How are you, really?”
What follows is a raw, honest conversation about growth, responsibility, and the quiet cost of success.
Our guest built a massive audience as a travel creator, then pivoted into mentorship, now leading a 20-person team. That shift comes with new weight: guiding people, protecting energy, and keeping your voice intact when others help you speak. We explore the difference between being stretched by meaningful work and being drained by misaligned effort, the kind that burns you out even when the schedule looks “light.”
We talk about mentorship as an accelerator: how paying for guidance can save years of trial and error, and why the most important system to scale is your nervous system. Behind every reel and strategy lies the simple truth, your body has to be able to hold what your vision demands.
The breakthrough comes through presence. Through documenting life instead of performing it. Through small, honest beginnings, like selling everything for a one-way ticket to New Zealand, and waiting eight months before pressing record. Once the first step is taken, momentum, confidence, and community follow.
Midway, we pause for a live heart-check: separating head noise from inner knowing. The clarity that comes is simple, keep sharing, protect health, guard presence. We explore flow state through the everyday, surfing, cooking, sea swims, dancing, the moments that bring the body back online and the mind back home.
We also go deep on creative business: how brand deals built the foundation but limited freedom, and how teaching others can widen your impact while reclaiming your voice.
If you’ve ever wondered how to stay authentic while scaling, how to respond to hundreds of DMs without losing your centre, or how to tell if you’re tired or truly off-track, this episode will meet you right where you are.
Expect honest talk on boundaries, creativity, and community. Expect no slogans, just soul.
