the feedback has been phenomenal. I just want to take
a moment and say a big shout out the Sideways

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Going to be straight up. This man contacted.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Me just out of the blue and basically reached out
suggesting that he may have a story to bring value
to our listeners. And I've got to say that after
having a chat with him, I do feel that there
is a great story behind this wonderful man. He wife
the media does was portrayed as the coke King.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Now the coke King to.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
Me, I doubt very much, because if you're the coke King,
then you're not sitting in Australia and you're not sitting
here are doing a podcast right now. But he was
definitely charged with supplying cocaine. Today he supplies so much
health knowledge and wellness through his actions and I feel
that it is a very worthy chat and something that
(02:20):
we will be able to give you the tools to
be able to better your own life through Ivy SARTI.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Welcome to the clink, Hey, bro, thanks for having me.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
I really appreciate it and thanks for the little intro there,
Bro well fanned.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, mate, it's look.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
I can't help but sit here as somebody who did
six years for commercial importation, you know, and the titles
that you can get given by the media, you know
the king cocaine supplier, I must admit, And that's not
disrespecting you for any means that just right, how many
tons were you're selling? Were your Pablo Escobar's fucking right
air man or something, Because at the end of the.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Day, mate, if you're you're the king of fucking.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
The Western Suburbs, I'd hate to think about all the
boys out there that are the king that are fucking
doing twenty and thirty years mate, that yeah, they're.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Thinking, yeah, you know, you've been through it yourself. The name,
the articles, it's all just for their business and grab
attention and just grab something and put it out in
the media, put it out in the area that you're from,
just to you know, run you down and you've been
through it before.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
They definitely do try to do that.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
And I know that you've been through it yourself, and
it's a long walk. It's a tough walk, especially when
you're going through all the court processes. Look, let's take
our listeners back, like we do with each of our
guests today, give them a bit of a background into
your story and why it's so important today what you
do and how you help so many people out there
and how you can offer some great tools to assist
(03:49):
others to chase their dreams and be the best they
can be. You definitely weren't living this clean, healthy life
some years ago and made some choices. But as we
say here, you know, like there's no regrets because we
wouldn't be sitting here today having this conversation. And if
we sat back and regretted everything that we did. For
the listeners, let's fill them in and give them a
(04:10):
background of who you are and yeah, how it ended
up where it was.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
Just basically you know, I'm born and bred in Penrith,
Peneuth boy, and just as a teenager, I was just lost,
you know what I mean, Like, you know, you don't
have purpose. You know, you've got no goals, ambitions, you
don't have a career, wasn't good at school. Just those
sort of things in combination can sort of drift kids
away from you know, not so much they don't have
(04:37):
the potential in them, but they just don't know where
to go.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
They don't know what to do. I don't know where
to put it into.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
And when that happens, you know, I was lost, and
then you know, started social drinking and getting into the drugs,
and of course you're lost, you get stuck in those places,
but then that makes you feel like you're at home,
you're comfortable, and then that becomes you know, you're I'm
not going to say ambition is the word, but that
(05:05):
just becomes part of your life. That's all you know
what to do, whether it's be on the street, get
in the hustle, you know, drink, take drugs. And that's
what I latched onto because when I was in that space,
I felt safe, I was okay.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
It becomes the normal, doesn't it. It's just it becomes
and then it becomes you don't look at it any different. Yeah,
getting up and having a shower, it's just like it's
so normal.
Speaker 5 (05:35):
It's so so normal, you actually forget that it's not normal.
You actually forget what you're doing is the wrong thing.
You forget that it is illegal. Just you're so used
to it and accustomed to it. When you know someone
that is sober and clean come sees you and goes, fuck,
what are you doing?
Speaker 1 (05:55):
You're just like, what, like, this is so normal for me?
What do you mean?
Speaker 4 (06:01):
I used I used to laugh, And when I say laugh,
I say it, you know, not so which is funny, funny,
ha haaf. And years ago you'd pull up at a
mate's house and you know, we go now and we
catch up for a coffee or whatever, and that's all
good and well.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
But years ago I used to call it the ding party.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
You pull up at a mate's place any hour the
fucking day and basically throw a plate in the microwave.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
The next minute, ding you chop it up.
Speaker 5 (06:21):
Yeah, that was just a normal you know, And I guess,
you know, some people just don't. There's people that have
thought are on that fence where they just do like
the social bending and things like that. But then there's
people that are like, that is your breakfast, your lunch,
your dinner. That is literally just like instilled into your
daily routine, doing those microwave things all the time.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
And that was mine, Like it was so fuck bro.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
I look back at it, and honestly, sometimes I'm just going,
fucking mate, hell you alive?
Speaker 1 (06:56):
You know what I mean? Like the amount of shit
you fucking consumed.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
You know, I had people coming up to me that
we're doing this for years for social events, okay, And
they come up to me and go, mate, you only
just started. How the fuck are you doing this like
this is not normal for someone who's been doing it socially.
Yet you just got introduced to it. I got hooked
on it. So the first time I touched drugs was MDMA.
(07:23):
I touched it and I did not stop. I touched
MDMA and I had it every single day since I
touched it. Wow, there was no off, there was no
just a bender it was. I tried it when I
was like twenty four, and then the next day I
tried to get more by myself than the next day.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
How old are you now? How old are you now?
Are you?
Speaker 4 (07:42):
I'm thirty two, bro, So you're just on that cusp
of it all being really not really mdmay It all
started to shift over to this chemical fucking production shit
that yeah and dangerous and kill them, ye wasn't what
for example, like when we.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Had mdmy it was this this anisse fucking smell that
was crystal was yeah that's a long time yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
you know, it was what we believe was proper. I
think the way that they sort of manipulate the toxicity
of the drugs that the young people are taking today
are just so toxic to the body and.
Speaker 5 (08:21):
Mind because I'll definitely go into what happened as well
down the truck with the health side of the body.
But like, yeah, so I was just that person that
had had it once and that was it. It was
game over that one time that I buckled to saying yes,
absolutely fucked me M.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
I don't real And then I just continued on.
Speaker 5 (08:44):
And then as you know what that life brings, it
makes you meet, you know, people that are in the game,
it makes you meet other people that you know are
not in good places. Everything else just starts to spoil
out of control. And that's literally what happened. And then
I got hooked on cocaine as well. So then I
started fucking mixing both of them, and I mean literally
(09:05):
both of them. Like I wasn't doing a line of
M and then a line of rack. I'd fucking mix
them together like a fucking cocktail and just line them up.
And I was doing that every day. That was just
my thing.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (09:17):
I think we used to call that crank back in
the days. Yeah, they have a name for it. I
don't know what it was, but that was just my thing.
I'd just smashed that and then i'd have drinks and.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I think that's what it sort of does. Like I know,
speaking from experience.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
For me, my thing was the Mdmay which I turned
into just a loose cannon and ran a muck like
a ten year old kid, running around like destroying things,
being funny, like I was just hype hyper. But living
with tytoo bi polar, I found that, you know, with
my use of cocaine for so many years back in
the days, I never got that high like everybody to
(09:54):
talk about the high, and it was always for me.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
It just kept me, I guess, feeling normal.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
That balanced me out, And I think that's what becomes
so normal in that sort of space. Say okay, why
are you taking this? Well, I can only say that
it keeps me normal, you know, like I was so
erratic with living with bipolar and not understanding the highs
and the lows of it. You know that if I
wasn't sort of having a line, I wasn't good.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
If I was, I was sociable, I was able to function,
and you know, life went on.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
So I'm sure there's a lot of people out there.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
That can relate to what we're talking about here, but
it's definitely, like you said, it's a road of destruction
and where it leads to and what comes with it.
He's in no way, shape or form fun.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
The funny thing when you say that is, you know
people see it as fun. Oh you know you live
a mad lifestyle or mad you having fun all the time. Yeah, okay, Wait,
wait a couple of years, Wait until something tragic happens,
Wait until you lose a mate, Waiting until your harm yourself,
waiting until you all those things really kicking, you know,
(11:03):
wait until you go to jail. None of that is fun,
none of it, not one second of it. And especially
when you're someone that gets caught in that for many years. Mate,
there's not one bit of that fucking fun app No,
there's nothing.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
And you often sit back and obviously when you're doing
a sentence, and a decent sentence, you realize very quickly
that it all means fuck all.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Like all those good times you.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
Would sit there and think, oh, you know, like, yeah,
got to miss this, got to miss that, And you think, well,
hang on, a see, this is what put me here,
you know, having that mindset and the way that I
was looking and living and all that led to where
I am today, and here I am looking at years
you know, but then you see people in jail whom
are okay with that, and you know, get involved in
(11:55):
the politics of jail and drugs and then start using
in jail, which then becomes very dangerous for people. People
end up dying over drug debts. Knows, it is a really,
really vicious circle. And you know, I've got to laugh.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
I did a.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Little real during the week about me running and being
addicted to running, and it's relevant to this. I had
somebody set around say along the lines of, oh, yeah,
who cares, you're Gronk Calmer for all the pain you
brought to everybody when you were selling drugs.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Now, the post was nothing about the drugs.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
The post was just about positivity, but saying that get
a healthy addiction, don't stop, keep going and live a
real positive and helping life. But this particular person felt
the need to just kick me in the guarts about
my past.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
And it does and you.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Know, like, it's not like we glorify talking about this,
and definitely send out condolences to anybody it's lost, anybody
through drugs, because it is.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
It's a terrible thing.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
And it's not until you're sit in there and you're
doing years of jail because of those actions that you
start to ponder on the effects that you may have
in the community or around drugs.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Themselves and the people taking them.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
You know, but people need to sit down and shut
the fuck up sometimes and have a real good look
at what they're talking about before they open their mouths,
because realistically, some of us that have had to experience
this life for the best people to be able to
advise others that there's a better way.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Hence what the clink's all about. So moving forward on that.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Your story today has great relevance to this season and
what we've been trying to achieve. And let's talk a
bit about your last experience because it was quite full
on for you. You did go through a process that
many have gone through, but a lot wouldn't understand in
reference to the court systems.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
And now obviously you know.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
What you've had to do living with repercussions and then
obviously moving forward in your own space and business and
being successful.
Speaker 5 (13:52):
Yeah, well, as you know, everyone's journey through the court
system itself is different, everyone's journey through prison is different.
For me, on my raft, I got absolutely fucking bashed
and seizure because I had so much head trauma. I
didn't wake up for four days in ICU, handcuffs to
the bed, and then you know, that sort of started
(14:15):
that journey, and then obviously going Injuring when we were
all the COVID rules and shit like that, isolation, then
the hospital wing obviously because I was so fucked up
on meds and the drugs as well. So I already
lost like a month and a half of just basically
going from hospital then into the jail hospital, then fucking isolation,
then COVID and then into the main So that was
(14:36):
already like a month and alf gone. I was just
been in isolation the whole time. Detoxing. Did that work
out the best for me?
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (14:43):
Probably did, because that was the first time I ever
got to be sober.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
That got me sober the quickest I was by myself,
you know, fucking really take a look at what the
fuck's happening with you and yourself and try and gather
everything you can to process the next step moving forward.
And me in those isolation rooms and that that fucking
did it for me, especially when I got moved to
the COVID wing. And I got my little fucking bathroom mirror.
(15:13):
That was the first time I got to look at
myself sober, not on gear, looked at basically how I
looked health wise or bashed staffsmanship from the cops, and
that sunk in. That was that pivotal moment, going, mate,
you need to fucking sort something out.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
In here, not wait until you get out.
Speaker 5 (15:31):
You need to do something in here to make sure
you are going to head in the correct way.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
And the thing is too over. The hardest thing is
no one's going to help you in there. This is
this is the reality of it. People assume that, you know,
jail is for rehabilitation. Jail fails, like I don't get
me wrong. It's a necessary sort of evil that we
need to have. And there's people that do deserve to
be in there, and there's others that really probably shouldn't
be in there, that are good people that have just
(16:00):
been in circumstances and situations where they've had to I
guess ax spontaneously. And there's many a stories here, and
I'm not going to go into them, but yeah, you know,
like when you look for help or educational guidance, it's
not there.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
You'd be lucky if you've got a panantole. Yeah, you know,
if you get sick.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
You're basically just locked down, left in a cell to
be forgotten about and get checked in on now and
again when they can get someone there.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
Looky others. Yeah, no one gives a fun Yeah. Yeah,
it's true. It's very true. It's you. You're on your own.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
People have this assumption, Oh you know, you've got screws, doctors,
health service and all that sort of stuff.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Please, I'll give you an example.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
When I was in the order from Bernie's fucking whole
fell his matches, he's black Bourt, fucking everything. Everyone got
locked into their cell. The fucking thing was pitch black
of smoke. Bell was fucking on fire, black smoke coming out.
I'm lucky this guy didn't die. And everyone's just stuck
in their cell coffin, and I'm going these are the
(16:56):
last fucking things that they're ever going to come and
make sure you're okay, you know what I mean, Like
everyone in our wing upstairs and downstair. You know, I
would have had toxins from the smoke broke. It was
fucking bad.
Speaker 4 (17:08):
Hey, let us think about it. The generation of today
it's fucking cool to stab someone and.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Go to JOUG with your five eighths.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
It's nothing cool about There's nothing.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
There is not a thing, a thing. There's nothing cool
about it.
Speaker 5 (17:24):
Yes, like exactly like you said, there's people that absolutely
need to go, and there's people for me. I needed
to go because I didn't go to reab. I should
have went to rehab. I needed to go to rehab.
But you know, I didn't do anything about it. I
wasn't proactive. I didn't have people around me to go. Mate, Fuck,
will fucking take you. I literally had a phone call
three weeks before me getting done. I was fucking bore
(17:45):
my eyes out, trying to take my life, like three times,
trying to hang myself, trying to take this like did
Everything is.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
A fucking mess.
Speaker 5 (17:51):
And then I got done, and I was saying, fuck,
you know what I mean, because you're giving me a
second chance. Where I was in the fucking worst mental
place I was I could ever feel and I never
ever want me to feel like that, and I never
want anyone else to feel like that, being on the
drugs and all those sort of things, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 1 (18:10):
I do think and for my experience as well. I
had to hit rock bottom.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
I needed to really sort of you know, copp in
a six year sentence with you know, my wife, she
was pregnant with our second child, five months pregnant, you know,
knowing that I would not be there to see my
son born. Looking at double figures, it's only then that
you realize that you need to find a better way.
And can I be honest and probably say that I
(18:36):
have no doubt now that if I'd continue down that road,
I could have been one of the many statistics that
was shot dead because of the pubs and the people
that I was around and the way that it was.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Or doing, you know, life in jail.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
So sometimes you've got to thank God that these things
do happen. I totally get what you're saying, because for me,
I can relate in respect to I'm actually grateful that
my last jail sentence happened. I'm not grateful for that
what I missed out, But that's part of what you do.
You know, what you're doing is wrong and there's consequences,
and at the end of the day, that's what has
to happen.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
So it's a.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
Turning point in many people's lives. And you're seeing more today,
some good men and women that are actually coming out
realizing that they've had enough. Just the way the structure
of jail is today and the way that the system is,
the laws, you know, like you can't beat it. The
technology is just so far advanced, and jail is just
absolutely putrid, putred. You know, I wouldn't expect someone it's
(19:34):
undone a couple of months to sort of have this
same sort of mindset, And I hope that it's enough
for them to have this mindset. Yeah, when you've done
years and you've seen change, You've seen a lot of
things happen. You know, you're talking from I don't even
want to get into it on here, but you both
know what takes place in there. But anyway, yeah, bro,
it's not nice, not nice for anyone. Everybody is vulnerable.
(19:55):
And I ain't give a fuck how much money you've
got and what sort of a hardh ranking member of
whatever you are or you will get got.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
It's been proven time and time again. You've got nowhere
to hide.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
Later your time will come catch us up, and bro,
you can't escape it. So you know, at the end
of the day, if you want to live your life
like that, constantly in at a revolving door.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
Then hey to you.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
But if anybody out there want to take a little
bit of advice from people like us, please listen in.
And you basically come out of jail, you got bail,
talk to us about that process.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
And because you had a home D.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
Yeah yeah, yeah, so obviously got Supreme Court bail, then
got home D with a bracelet, and then that ended
up going on for two years, bro, And saying, like
I said, you know, with my situation, that was probably
the best thing for me. Don't go anywhere, don't see anyone,
And the fact that I was in a really good
routine from jail, you know, waking up early training, just
(20:53):
being in a really really good mindset, and then giving
me that home D that was probably the best thing
for me because I just come out and did the
exact same thing.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
I fucking woke up early five o'clock.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
I did my training in the backyard the same way
I was training in jail, and I was eating clean food,
and I just started to really take advantage of that
being home and staying in that mindset and that structure,
that was probably the best thing for me as well.
And then my downtime being at home, I just put
(21:25):
it into good efforts of you know, finishing my pt
SERTs and doing my nutrition course.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
You know, being at home for two years.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
There's only so much you can do, so I put
it to good use and all those sort of things.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
Bro, I started to really come evident that fuck, this.
Speaker 5 (21:43):
Is what I want to do. I want to help myself.
I want to get healthy. I want to help other people.
I fell in that key. Isn't that key?
Speaker 4 (21:49):
I just want to touch on that for it that
you said, I help myself. We all want to try
and make change, but how many of us are willing
to actually work on ourself? This is the key, I think,
and for me personally, I've been able to. I'm still
working on myself. If we got like today is a
shit day for me, My diets out the window, and
my mental states, you know, not stable at the moment,
(22:12):
purely because of life and everything going on.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I'm stressed about work.
Speaker 4 (22:15):
You know, the weather's completely fucked me for three weeks,
so my mental state is just shot.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
As a father, as a provider, as.
Speaker 4 (22:22):
You know, the person that ever looks to is says,
you know, Dad, or how are we going to do this.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
We've got to get this, we need that.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
You're going Fuck, but I've got to be able to
turn around and look at myself and be proud of
myself and where I'm at and not try and let.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
That sort of drag me back to that negative place.
Speaker 5 (22:41):
I think the biggest thing when people like are trying
to obviously, you know, you do good and things like that,
but it's like it's okay to take a step back,
take acknowledgement of where you come from and what you're doing,
and like those little things that you're actually achieving, and
that does help in the long run for you know,
your personal development, because you want to work on yourself
(23:04):
to the point where you're providing the best version of
yourself to others so they can enjoy that they're going
to get.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
The most out of you.
Speaker 5 (23:14):
You know, when you're really knuckling down on your self,
whether it is you know, your diet and nutrition, your mindset,
you know, for family anything, whatever it is that you
need to work on, but it comes out to you,
you know, it to the mates, your family, your friends,
your wife, your kids. Okay, they get to take in
that next level of you and it comes out in
(23:36):
your work and everything else.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Bro.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Yeah, Look, it's a tough road and I think you
know this is the beauty about the Clink is having
guests on that are able to share their experience and
give people hope. I get a lot of I guess
satisfaction out of each person or interview weekly because for me,
there's always something new, there's always something to take in
my toolbox, as I like to call it, you know
what I mean. And not only is it something that
(24:02):
enables others out there to find hope and you know,
follow the dreams and the beliefs and to realize that
people like yourselves and you know, the under hundreds of
guests that have been on here in the seventeen seasons
is you can do it.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
But it's fucking hard. It's not easy.
Speaker 4 (24:17):
And you know my point of saying how I'm feeling
today speaking to you because I know that you work
in this space as.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Well as not every day is a good fucking day.
You like it's not. And you can be out there
and leading in your industry.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
You can be out there promoting to the world how
awesome this is and how positive and get up and
do your breath work and have a cold shower and
have a pool and fucking you know, like it's you're
going to feel on top of the world, Like fuck you,
that ain't true. You know, like there's things that we
can do to assist how we will feel daily, obviously
(24:52):
through you know, a positive wellness, our exercise, our diet, mindset,
breath work. Well, that's relevant, and I really am a
big believer and all that, but implementing that daily when
you're feeling at your lowest or low is exceptionally hard,
and sometimes not all of us can pull ourselves out
of that space, and it can last days, if not weeks.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Yeah, yeah, amen to that, bro.
Speaker 5 (25:14):
I just had someone on my Instagram literally just before
we jumped on. She's in America and she's been a
messaging me wanted to get on my program, but she's
an actual coach, and I just said, you're probably not
someone i'll take on because you don't have certain things.
And then she sent me a message she's crying. So
I just called her, so, okay, so what's going on
with your life. I'm a coach, I should know this.
(25:36):
I said, Okay, but we're not always going to win.
We're not going to win all our days. We're not
going to win all the moments. I said, let's just
take back and have a look and acknowledge what is
going on so you can see because if you don't acknowledge.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Peel it back.
Speaker 5 (25:52):
Yeah, if you're not acknowledging what's going wrong, if there's
an issue, how can you fix it? You have to
see what is happening. Then you can adjust, so you
readjust make a new plan and structure around that. And no,
we don't always win the days, but if you can
acknowledge that that's happening, then you can break down and go, Okay,
(26:15):
well this is happening. What can I do to help
this situation or this moment? What can I do starting now?
That's going to try and shift that, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
I think that's a really valid point to everybody out
there that is struggling.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Know that you are not alone.
Speaker 4 (26:31):
And I'm saying that in the mirror to myself as well,
So it's not just me sitting up here saying, oh,
you're not alone. I needed to hear today from somebody
that it's all good, It's okay to feel the way
you're feeling.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
I'm starting to feel a.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
Little bit more pepped up already just having this chat
with you, because it's something that I'm passionate about as
much as it was a struggle for me, because you know,
to deliver the best podcast, I want to be at
my best. I want to have the best opportunity for
my guests to have the best of me, and then
that then portrays out to the public and everybody that
listens weekly.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
So this is the therapeutic for me right now. And
it's great.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
Because you know we're talking, we've never physically met, we
both share similar stories in different ways. It's relative and
it relates to so many people out there, you know.
So if you're one of those people out there that
are feeling it today and listening to this, then I
hope that this inspires and picks you up a little
bit and gives you some sort of positive in your
(27:28):
time and your day, because I know that.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
This is life. Yeah, what we have to do right.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
Some people forget or like I'd like to say too
to my clients or other people, like at the end
of the day, like life happens, and what I mean
by that, like shit fucking happens in life.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
It does.
Speaker 5 (27:46):
But learning to acknowledge where the things go wrong and
how to handle them is a different story, okay, because
then you can break down and handle the situations when
they reoccur, and you're going to get better at that
and it won't affect you as much. And then over
time those things are going to get better and better
(28:06):
and better and better, so you won't be feeling as
bad if that same situation happens. You know how to respond,
you know how to handle it, and that's going to shift.
You know your mindset and if that negative energy sort
of comes, maybe for a shorter moment, and then you
can get on with the day and other things will
flow and work better for you.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
You've taken a lot of steps to bettering yourself. You've
been very successful and you're growing as we speak. There's
a lot of things happening around you that's a real
positive in your life, that's inspiring, that is helping many
people out there. And I'm not going to sit here
and bullshit. I generally don't take on the whole health coach,
life coach. If anything, I'm usually the one that says,
(28:47):
get a fucking life, like most people are just like
to live. Well, it's true, you know, like, I'm not one.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
To sit here and talk shit about it. I'll be honest,
you know.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
And you're probably at a two hundred and nearly sixteen
seventeen guests. I would say probably the third health coach
sort of. You know that I've a couple of people
that I've really been inspired by. Different story. But there's
so many pieces like PTS. Everyone wants to be a PT.
Well yeah, sorry, but find a new fucking profession because
(29:19):
you can find a thousand pts between.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Here and you know the end of the street.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
And like, kudos to every PT out there, but man, wow,
there was a time where you actually could find a
PT that you could work with, you respected to listen to.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
I guess it's no different the pressure washing industry. Now.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
You know, you've got every man and his dog out
there uninsured, got these shitty little setups and they're out
there undercut and all us bloats that are doing it
the right way for hundreds and hundreds of dollars and
we're losing the jobs because of it, you know. So
I just wanted to just touch on having you on here.
I personally have looked at some of your stuff and
thought for myself. I like it, you know, I like
(29:59):
what you're about. I like where you're at. And you're
not just another health coach, do you know you're actually
somebody that truly has taken the steps to make a
difference and really sort of having a connection with people
in a really really good way, in a healthy way.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
I won't just keep using the word positive, because fucking
fuck positive. Positive is good to talk about it. Life's life.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
Like we just admitted, there's no point going, oh, well,
it's a positive play.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
But health and.
Speaker 4 (30:29):
Wellness is great, and that's what we need. We need
to be healthy within ourselves for our mental health, our
physical health, and that's something that you now are doing
very very well in and helping people through.
Speaker 5 (30:41):
Yeah. I think it sort of stems back from my
story where I said, you know, taking all those drugs and.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Absolutely fucked my guts. So this is sort of what
led me to this.
Speaker 5 (30:52):
And then obviously once I was in hospital and we
got other reports and shit because I was trying to
find drugs inside my body and they reckon us stash
fucking hats and shit my organs. So obviously when I
was unconscious they put camera up me and whatnot. And
they didn't find of them, but they gave me.
Speaker 4 (31:08):
A come on, bro, your shelf was full, doesn't lie
you fucking you loaded your little pocket.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
You're a little safe. You loaded it up. They thought
I fucking had a shipping or something, bro, Like that's
a cracker. Bro.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
These guys had me unconscious, going where is it?
Speaker 1 (31:29):
Like? Where is it? He's on the drugs, that's why
he's unconscious.
Speaker 5 (31:32):
No, you just beat the fuck out of me, like
all ten of yours. The doctor's report basically come back
and said, like, mate, you've got ulcers, you've got cysts
all inside, you got your organs and that would have
been from the gear. And that really got to me,
And I'm thinking, what am I going to do? Like
you know, fuck, we're gonna have to get shit cut out,
you know what I mean. I'm just thinking medications and
(31:52):
all this crap. And that really pushed me working on
not saying fitness coach and a health coach, but just
looking at disease and the body itself and how can
you fix how can you fix some of these really
severe issues that most people have. There's got to be
other answers than just doctors and living with it.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
There's got to be something else.
Speaker 5 (32:14):
And that's sort of where I dove down to help
people that are suffering that they don't need to.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
They've been fucking lied to, you know.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
I mean most of these people that I've dealt with
have been lied to you straight to their fucking face, saying, oh,
you've got this, that's it.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
You just fucking take these medications for the rest of
your life. There's fucking bullshit, bro. Yeah, do you know
what I mean?
Speaker 5 (32:35):
Like it really like really gets to me, like really
emotionally gets to me when I see someone you know,
psoriasis X, my skin issues, type two fucking diabetes.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
Bro.
Speaker 5 (32:46):
These fuckers have been on medications and struggling and all
this shit for the you know, a long time and
part of their life. But hey, I've managed to get
people that are typed two off off medication fully healthy
and these guys have been lied straight to their fucking face.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
And that kills me, bro. Yeah, And that's the thing.
You know, You've got to really sort of start to.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Weigh it all up. And I mean, you know, experience.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
Is a really beautiful thing lived experience and knowing what
you're talking about, you know, I'm being able to help
others that are in that position. That is such an
important thing. You have now that experience and you do
have that knowledge. How is life today? And yeah, let's
talk about exactly what it is that you're doing and
(33:35):
through your business and the reach and the success you're
having with it.
Speaker 5 (33:38):
I started the business five months ago, so you know
my Instagram page I started five months ago.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
I signed my first client.
Speaker 5 (33:46):
You know, people were telling me just just go with it,
you know so much.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Put it out there, you know.
Speaker 5 (33:51):
So I was like, fuck it, just be true to me,
be true to my knowledge and my practices that I
know being a carnival, and just put it out there.
Fuck anyone that says, oh no, that's not healthy, I
said whatever, and I just I've gone with it. And
it's been the best thing I've ever done, bro. And
it's been the most rewarding because I have literally.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
Seen people fucking change their life. Bro. I've seen people
call me crying.
Speaker 5 (34:17):
I've seen people get off fucking any depressants, fucking medications
that I've seen so much and knowing that I can
help someone and they can turn around and be like,
thank you so much. I'm not in pain, I'm not
struggling with medication. I'm not in you know, depressed and
all these things, but I cannot give you the feeling
(34:38):
and the words from someone who was an adict, know
on how fucked up you know your mental health can
be and suicidal then being someone that actually caused damage
to people now being able to go, I'm going to
help as many as people like in health, fitness, mental health,
you name it.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
So, I mean it is the best thing I've ever done.
Speaker 4 (35:01):
Yeah, it is, And I think that you know, like
from my point, I don't know. I think what works
for some may not work for others. I try to
do a lot of health in my own life in
reference to diet and physical health. And look, sometimes it's
definitely would ensuit others, especially forty nine years of age
going out and running between twenty and thirty k's in
(35:23):
one run, you know.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Like it, but it works for me. It works for me.
Speaker 4 (35:29):
So, you know, going down to nutrition and diet and
all that sort of stuff, you know, I see that
you promote a lot of carnival style of eating and
all that sort of stuff.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
You know, Why so much are you focused.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
On the carnival side of dieting and what makes that
so much better than you know, anybody else out there.
Speaker 5 (35:48):
It just made sense to me when I okay, so
I'm going to You know, they can call me conspiracy whatever.
I don't give a fuck knowing that you know, you
and me have been through the system. We know what
the system's like. And it's no different when it comes
to medication. When it comes to nutrition. Okay, it's not
all just in black and white. It's fucking read between
(36:08):
the lines sort of thing, hidden messages, you name it.
And when I started diving really deep with nutrition and
disease and their medications made there's all these fucking dots
that just it don't make sense. So if we strip
it all back and I started looking at just the
real basics, the way tribes were eating and their lifestyle.
(36:29):
When I was looking at the way they live, these
guys don't have disease.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
Why is that what makes them different?
Speaker 5 (36:36):
And they're still tribes out there today that have no
idea about fucking technology and fucking food how easy food
is for us and fridges. But these guys don't have cancer,
these guys don't have diabetes, So what is happening here?
So when I look into Carnival. It's the basic way
(36:57):
of stripping it or peeling it all back to basics,
just to get yourself a good foundation for your health
and that sort of where I really dive into it.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
Brian, and I guess that's what you're passionate about.
Speaker 4 (37:09):
And that's what having guests on here is to inspire people.
Whether you're right or wrong, so there's no judgment. It
may work for you and what your beliefs are. I
could have a vegan or a vegetarian person on here
next week that sees things from a different perspective that
he or she may feel that that's appropriate for what
they're trying to achieve. I guess the biggest thing here
(37:32):
and basically having you on to deliver your story is
the success around what you believe in chasing that dream,
being authentic and being able to implement all the things
that you've learned and worked hard to understand to then
be able to deliver a trusted product if you will,
or knowledge that will help others.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
Let's talk about a business sense.
Speaker 4 (37:55):
How did you structure your business, how did it get started,
and what your highs and your lowers.
Speaker 5 (38:00):
Of that three So the funniest thing is. I actually
tried to start the business being a normal nutritionalist even
though I was carnival myself.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
I thought people want just.
Speaker 5 (38:12):
A normal training program and they just want a normal
food pyramid diet and count your calories and just I
was trying to blend in with everyone.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
It didn't get me anywhere. It wasn't really getting traction
or nothing.
Speaker 5 (38:24):
And then that's when I was just like, you know what,
be true to me, because when I'm making my content,
I'm not true. I don't have the passion and the
meaning behind it because it's not me, it's not what
I'm doing. So I just flipped the switch and started
just producing carnival content.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
And obviously that gained a lot of traction.
Speaker 4 (38:43):
You know, you have a lot of people's like attack
you because this is also a really good point too
about not giving up and standing by your guns.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
I haven't had like many. Obviously.
Speaker 5 (38:53):
I get a few comments here and there that are
you know, vegans or vegetarians.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
The vegans I understand.
Speaker 5 (39:01):
I don't put it on them because I'm like you
generally want to just you know, be loving and caring
for animals and stuff. I get it, but also understanding
you know the way the world works and evolution of
the simple fact that you know, I'm not killing every
single one. It is a bit make them extinct, do
you know what I mean? So I understand what they're
trying to do and their believe in. Then I'll just
(39:22):
get vegetarians that are like, oh, you need fucking fruit
and veggies and all these shit. But I just I
just leave it. I don't get much hate, bro, because,
like I say, I might get a normal nutrition coach
trying to blast me or something, but the first thing
I say to him, I just say, Oh, what's the goal?
What's your goal as a nutritionist? Your goal is to
(39:44):
help someone you know, get that one percent better, whether
it's lose weight, get fit up. I said, I'm the
exact same, I just do it have a different method.
So why should we fight each other when we had
the same goal to help someone else?
Speaker 1 (39:56):
Yeah, and I.
Speaker 4 (39:57):
Look, I mean the point of me asking that question,
I guess, is to show that you know, you.
Speaker 1 (40:02):
Stand by what you believe in.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
And for anybody out there that finds it hard and
which doesn't matter what you do. You know, I put
a post up this week, You're going to offend somebody.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
Yeah, it doesn't.
Speaker 4 (40:13):
Matter whether you're being authentic, whether you're telling a funny joke,
whether you're actually trying to give someone some information that
could be valuable in reference to their health and wellness.
You're always going to have somebody there try and pull
you apart and tell you what a tack cared you are,
or how wrong you are or And it's hard for
people because it takes thick shoulders to be able to
(40:35):
just shrug that off and move forward and stick with
that belief. I think the relevance of you know, people
that come on here as guests is that we all
have been judged. You know here you are, You're successful
at what you're doing, you found your path, you're really
enjoying it, and you're making a difference in people's lives.
And look, to be honest with you, I'm not here
(40:57):
to promote your business as in you know, a carnival
or a non cannibal. That's nothing to do with you know,
wanting you on the here. The point of you being
here is to be able to give people inspiration. Because
I believe that you are inspiring people through your path
and your belief in your journey and that's what makes
me sort of interested in going, Wow, that guy's doing
(41:20):
really really good, and kudos to you.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (41:23):
No, no, I do, And I'm up for anybody that's
willing to sort of get out there and.
Speaker 1 (41:27):
Have a crack.
Speaker 4 (41:27):
But it is hard, and people are going to sit
there and be argument here and people are going to
pull you apart, and it takes.
Speaker 5 (41:34):
It's toll it it does, you know me, you know,
tall poppy syndrome. It's not so much, you know, do
I get hate? But I think I definitely notice just
the people on your social media stop liking your stuff.
They still follow you, they don't comment, but they still
follow your where they used to, and just that itself,
(41:55):
you know, it is not hate, but it's almost showing
you like, well, almost like I don't support you, but.
Speaker 1 (42:01):
I'll just sit back on the fans, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 5 (42:04):
What I try and do it with that situation is
I try to uplift other people in business, you know,
because we're all here trying to help people get better.
Speaker 1 (42:16):
Make a living. So while we are trying to chop everyone.
Speaker 4 (42:19):
Down, give me a couple of points of key points
for you in business that gives you that daily win,
even if it's a little one. You know, for somebody
out there that's wanting to believe in what they've gotten
in a product or themselves and what they want to achieve,
what would be, you know, some pointers that you would
be suggesting to them that would give them an opportunity
(42:40):
to become successful.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
In what they believe in and what they truly want
to do.
Speaker 5 (42:44):
It would definitely be understanding your purpose, your reason, your
why and your doing this and absolutely commit to it.
Make sure your purpose, your reason, and your why it
is like super powerful, okay, because that's what's going to
drive you on those shit days.
Speaker 1 (43:01):
Your reason why you're doing this.
Speaker 5 (43:04):
The messaging behind your business, Okay, that's going to mean everything,
and it's going to be everything you know, authentic Okay,
it's not going to make you drift apart. It's going
to keep you on the truck. The other things would
be is being consistent at the end of the day,
whether you're great at something or you're just okay or
(43:26):
you're just starting.
Speaker 1 (43:27):
The consistency is what makes the difference.
Speaker 5 (43:30):
Someone can have a super amazing product and have all
the plans and everything written out and all the skills,
but not be consistent, You're going to fail. Consistency wins
no matter what. So working on your business, on your
goals daily, that's a fucking win. As long as you
can tick that box sock every day and go, I've
(43:52):
done something to work towards my goals or towards my
business every day.
Speaker 1 (43:56):
Fuck, that's a win.
Speaker 5 (43:57):
And doing that consistently is going to compound over time,
and I promise you you'll be successful.
Speaker 4 (44:05):
Chat the other day just before we've sort of decided
that we're going to go ahead with this podcast, and
one point of our conversation is something I'd like to share,
and that was the fact of the mentality of the streets.
Speaker 1 (44:18):
You know, that hustle, that grind. Okay, I don't want to.
Speaker 4 (44:21):
Sort of trigger anybody here that may be listening, but
for anybody that's been involved or around I guess distribution
of narcotic since you will, it's a process and it's
a thought pattern. It's there's so much involved to getting
the money in. It's incredible the minds of some people. Now,
people can be amazing in that criminal mindset. What we
(44:46):
discussed was taking that criminal mindset and putting that into
a legitimacy, bringing out the best version of yourself. You
could be the best dealer on the street, you know
what I mean. But that tells me you could be
the best entrepreneur in believing in whatever it is that
you feel is going to be successfu and chasing that
(45:06):
dream and that vision and being everything. Because when you
break it all down, I personally think that having a
hustle behind you, and for anybody out there that's you know,
understands this will get where I'm coming from. For you
to have that mindset, that hustle, you know, to be
able to coordinate logistics, finances, weights, so we're talking mathematics,
(45:28):
all the things that we say, oh I can't do that,
that's too hard.
Speaker 1 (45:31):
You're doing it. So why not legitimize it?
Speaker 4 (45:33):
Why not put it into something that's you know, a
genuine passion or a belief that you're going to gain
something that is really really constructive.
Speaker 5 (45:42):
In your life. Yeah, yeah, one hundred percent. Not only
just being in the streets too. Some of these people
with addicted to drugs, You have an addiction mentality, So
fucking put it to work. Be addicted, to go on
to the gym, be addicted to being the best to
you be addicted to a business without being consistent. You
(46:02):
can use, you know, what you thought was your weakness
or your struggle. You can flip that into being the
best thing in your toolbox to work for you. And
that's you know, basical little I don't I use that
addiction mentality and flipped it, and now I'm just fucking
addicted to health, nutrition and the business.
Speaker 1 (46:23):
So I mean, well, hang on a sec. You're not
allowed to swap one addiction out for another.
Speaker 5 (46:27):
Apparently, Oh if only they knew how addiction worked.
Speaker 4 (46:34):
Hey, well, it's like I refer back to my real
the other day.
Speaker 6 (46:38):
You know what I mean, Like it had seventy thousand
people viewed or whatever, and you know, there was a
few fucking haters that come across it, like, oh that's insensitive,
blah blah blah blah, fuck whatever, mate, Like, look.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
At it for what it is.
Speaker 4 (46:51):
You know, Like everybody out there right now has the
talent to do something great. Not all of us have
the skill set, all the support networks around us to
be able to do it. I know I didn't, and
I still don't. Every day's a grind learning. Obviously, you've
had to educate yourself. Like you've said, many many other
guests have been in the same boat. But you know,
(47:12):
like I sit back sometimes I think, fuck, when's my
chance going to come?
Speaker 1 (47:16):
Do you know what I mean? Like, I'm working hard,
I'm grinding. I like even with my business.
Speaker 4 (47:19):
You know, I went away from taking away each week
to now being a business owner.
Speaker 1 (47:25):
And it starts great.
Speaker 4 (47:26):
You you build up, and then all of a sudden
it just plateaus and you get a weather pattern that
comes through and takes out your work.
Speaker 1 (47:32):
You know, So what do you do?
Speaker 4 (47:33):
And I'm like, how am I going to pay for
the bills this week? How am I going to provide
for my kids? You've got to find that mentality, that
hustle mentality. And I'm not talking about going out and
finding another care or some bags to sell.
Speaker 1 (47:45):
I'm talking about legitimately, you just.
Speaker 4 (47:46):
Say, okay, well, what can I do to switch it
up to try and make ends meet?
Speaker 3 (47:51):
Now?
Speaker 4 (47:51):
It might not be what you used to for me.
I start ringing all the places I used to work
for where I drove semis. It was something that I'm
good at and I left always on a good note.
And luckily there might be a day it might be
two days, but in that two days, it will pay
for my bills. You know, it'll pay for the rent,
so to speak. So for me, as long as the
roofs over our head for that week, I can live
(48:12):
to fight another week. There'll be food on the table.
We'll always find food. You know, rice is not that expensive.
And you know you can always get down your community
pantry and get help. So, Ivy, if people wanted to
reach out to you and seek your advice, your help,
how do we find you?
Speaker 5 (48:27):
And yeah, so you can obviously find me Facebook and Instagram,
Ivy Party. There's enough social content on there to educate
people whatever level there are, to help anyone really, So
that's not that the pages about education and get people
that knowledge, you know, point them in the right direction.
Speaker 1 (48:50):
So it is, you know, as I was saying in
the beginning of the podcast, a health and wellness platform,
that it's not just specifically around dietary it's about everyday
living and how to be the best you can be.
And I really like that.
Speaker 4 (49:05):
And you know, once again, I want to commend you
on that because I think that you know, using lift experience,
educating yourself and then being able to then deliver that
to people who need that help and assistance is so valuable. Like,
don't get me wrong, we need all the clinicians in
the world and all these wonderful people coming out of
university with their textbook studies. But I go on about
(49:27):
it week after week after week because I just get
so inspired by each guest that lived experience is so powerful.
Speaker 1 (49:33):
Yeah, it is. It's our story, bro.
Speaker 5 (49:36):
You know, like, your your story is what would have
started this, Bro. It started your podcast, it started your clothes, bro,
your journey, your story is what's the new product of
what's happened your experience, and look at what you produced them.
Speaker 3 (49:51):
Bro.
Speaker 5 (49:51):
You host some podcasts, You're having people on here to
share their story. And I've always said it only ever
takes one person to hear your story for you to
change someone's life. And you're going to commend yourself on
that too, for you know, you're holding this space for
other people and for listeners to tap in if they
(50:12):
need help and stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (50:14):
So good on you, bro, You're doing a good thing,
and I'd appreciate that.
Speaker 4 (50:18):
I Mean, sometimes it's hard to look in the mirror
and pack yourself on the back and it's seldom that
we do do it, but you know we did speak
earlier about that, you know, looking in the mirror and
being proud of who you are and what you've achieved.
And I guess you know, do we always sit back
and take those moments where we probably should have a
minute and just say, hey, you're doing all right, mate?
(50:38):
You know, like the shit going on around you you
can't control, but hey, you could be in such a
worse position, and you have been in a worse position,
and you've made decisions because of situations that weren't the
best decisions which in turn cost you dearly, you know,
your time, your life basically, you know, and it affects
those around you. So you know, my purpose, and I
(51:02):
truly appreciate your kind words, is to just being able
to give people hope, give people a platform and knowledge
through people like yourself, you know, like over five million downloads.
Speaker 1 (51:14):
I'm proud of it. I say it often, like fuck,
who's had that?
Speaker 4 (51:17):
Like to even be in podcasting for any longer than
twelve months, let alone four years and seventeen seasons is
a life sentence.
Speaker 1 (51:27):
It's a lifetime, you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (51:30):
That's right, And it all started originally with my story,
which I never in a million years, you know, I
put my story out there to be able to hopefully
help one person, and not to sound like a dickhead,
but I do know that it's helped many more than
just the one person.
Speaker 1 (51:45):
I'm found and grateful. I am grateful that it's been
able to have that impact, and you know, successfully we're
still here sharing people's stories and it's something that I
thrive on and as I said, therapeutic for me, and
I hope that everybody out there continues to take something great,
especially from our toolboxes that we like to leave at
the end of the season. Speaking of which I know
(52:07):
you did speak of.
Speaker 4 (52:08):
Some points before, but what are two really powerful things
that have helped you and continue to help you grow
that you would give as advice to somebody out there
who's listening today that's a little bit sort of hesitant,
I guess about where to go and how to go
about it.
Speaker 5 (52:24):
The two would be educating yourself and consistency in whatever
field it is, whatever that you want to do. If
you learn and understand that the education the knowledge behind
what you want to do, and then implement it with consistency,
you're going to win. It sounds that simple, but like
(52:48):
I said, you can have the best products and people
are not consistent and they fail. But being consistent is
one of the biggest things. It's the game changer. It's
what's different people from giving up and being successful is
the consistency of just.
Speaker 1 (53:05):
Doing it over and over and over again.
Speaker 5 (53:08):
But then also having you know some knowledge and things
behind whatever you want to do is it's going to
get you where you want to go. Then once you
get to that place, obviously you can grow more. But
they're the two biggest things, I would say.
Speaker 4 (53:22):
Very powerful. Education is the key to success. They've always
said that. For me, I need to learn to read
a lot more. Not that I can't read. I just
struggle to sit still enough and focus.
Speaker 1 (53:33):
I end up reading probably ten times over the same paragraph,
and I just think.
Speaker 4 (53:39):
I'm going to fuck it and I'll throw the book.
But they're things I've got to learn. Even at forty
nine years of age, I've still got to try and
find better ways, you know, because you never stopped learning.
I think the moment you think that you're successful and
that you have made it is the moment you're going
to fall.
Speaker 5 (53:54):
Yeah, because then you would technically being in the comfort zone,
and we both know when you're in the comfenza, you know,
that's where fucking shit goes wrong.
Speaker 4 (54:02):
Well, I just want to say to you, mate, I
really appreciate you being here today and reaching out. I
think that initial conversation bringing us here today was awesome
and that just goes to show you turning up and
being consistent and confident in yourself about what you believe
in and who you are and the successes that you're having.
So I really want to say to you, mate, I
(54:24):
wish you nothing but.
Speaker 1 (54:25):
The success off the back of all your hard work,
and I truly would love to speak and we'll continue
to keep in touch. Yeah, we can help help help
you to grow your business and promote and network with others.
Then please make reach out and we will definitely do
that for you.
Speaker 5 (54:40):
Yeah, one hundred percent, bro, And I appreciate you having
me and the conversations that haven't. I definitely think we
can still continue to help each other business wise, everything else.
So it's really good to connect. And this is what
I was talking about. It's very hard to build an
empire one man, It's very hard.
Speaker 1 (55:01):
I love that and one of my sayings.
Speaker 4 (55:04):
My favorite saying says, no man as an island, And
that is exactly why. You know, it's something that once
people start to realize it's okay to share and it's
okay to network.
Speaker 1 (55:14):
Yes, people grow so much from being a little bit
more open minded. You know, we have this perception that
we've got an idea, we've got a vision, we've got
a business. Fuck everyone else, that's all my own mind. Hustle, hustle, hustle.
It doesn't work like that, people and on.
Speaker 5 (55:28):
It gets you so far when you do that. Yes,
you can do that at the start and get to
a certain level. But for you to grow, you grow
your skill set, your knowledge, your wealth, everything else.
Speaker 1 (55:39):
You need a team.
Speaker 5 (55:41):
You need other people around you to support what is happening.
So networking, sharing knowledge, you know, all those sort of things.
You can't build this ginormous fucking empire as a one
man team.
Speaker 1 (55:54):
You will not get them.
Speaker 5 (55:56):
But you can get there better, stronger and quicker with
the team supporting you one hundred percent.
Speaker 1 (56:02):
Well, there you have it.
Speaker 4 (56:03):
Guys, I be Sadi who was known as a cocaine
supplier who's now leading in the industry that he is
so passionate about and believes in. It's been awesome having
