  • Great show for young people starting out!

    Diverse group of people working towards the same end goal. If you can’t pull out a few pearls of wisdom from each episode you should get your ears cleaned. This is helping me a lot in my business venture.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#89: From Schoolteacher to International Lychee Exporter with Krystal Caton from Lush Lychees
Q: What did you actually write about?
Caton's Nuffield report examines how family farms can capture more value from assets they already own to become more profitable and resilient and support the next generation.
#89: From Schoolteacher to International Lychee Exporter with Krystal Caton from Lush Lychees
Q: What made you really consider taking that leap?
After hearing the orchard had passed in at auction, Caton and her husband viewed it as an affordable opportunity to buy land near a town and school. They later sought advice from lychee growers and decided to restore the trees.
#86: From the Bush to the Brisbane Broncos with Bree Spreadborough
Q: How did you navigate the opportunity with the Broncos while balancing your Rabobank career during Beef Week?
It was stressful, as I had to juggle Beef Week commitments and wait for the call for the Broncos, but I kept it under wraps and eventually made the decision when the opportunity was clearly the right fit.
#86: From the Bush to the Brisbane Broncos with Bree Spreadborough
Q: What was your debut experience like at Suncorp and how did you feel stepping onto the field for the first time?
I felt surreal and overwhelmed with family and friends there, but I worked hard to stay calm and focused on my role, which helped me process how real the moment was.
#85: Building B Rural Co. Work Ethic, Innovation and Backing Yourself with Brandon Sigvart
Q: What sparked the jump from a side project to a full-time business?
It was a combination of steady online growth, a strong demand surge for our 3D-printed components, and the realization that the hours and energy we were putting in could be better rewarded if we treated it as a real business and scaled production.
