Be you, be kind, be grateful

Well, look, there's been so many celebrations in life since we last recorded.

And so it was 20 years in Australia for Lynn, Mia, James and I.

So amazing celebration of that landed here.

Mate,

how cool is that?

Yeah.

Because I know we've done a podcast about this prior and we spoke earlier in the week, but 20 years in Australia.

How cool? You know, we're going to talk about a bit of vulnerability today, which I also, I'm very, very welcoming.

But one thing I'd share with you, I was driving in the car yesterday, going back from the office to home.

And a song came on by Snow Patrol.

It's called Chasing Cars.

No, it will.

And I remember, you know how you always listen to songs and remember where you were when you first heard it.

So 2006, I'm in a study nook within Lynn and my bedroom doing my business broker's license.

I did a course that should have taken about 15 months.

I did it in 15 weeks so I could get out onto the streets and ask business owners where they're at.

I felt that was the vehicle that, you know, this burning passion inside of me about, you know, helping business owners, but I didn't really know what it was.

Anyway, I was so excited about doing all the modules of that thing.

I was doing the finance unit and I was doing well at it.

And I remember Snow Patrol coming on with this song.

And every time I heard it, I just started crying because I wasn't earning money at that time.

I'd actually resigned from a two-year stint at a sports business.

I didn't consult with Lynn when I resigned, not fully.

I just couldn't continue there out of integrity of not enjoying what I've done because I've always loved what I've done in my work.

So I had to get out of there to get my integrity back in.
