Episode 10 will go down as one of my all time favourites. I appreciated the wisdom, insight and opportunity to learn from a business mind who prioritises consciousness as a tool to grow your business into the ultimate exit. There was no effort required in making the invisibile, visible in ways that land, and shift, and compel a new way of seeing.
We covered a lot of ground and each had their own pause for relfection - from what is consciousness, focus, perception, their application in business, along with the idea that "how-to", frameworks and methodologies, are needed far less, when one has a good idea of who they are, and how best to access their entire human.
An inspiring, rich exchange with much learning and material to ponder long after.

Meet Townsend Wardlaw
Townsend helped generate over $1.5 billion in revenue and more than $500 million in personal wealth for founders—and he says the key to it all isn’t strategy or hustle… it’s consciousness.
He is a coach, advisor, and truth-teller to some of the world’s most ambitious founders and top-performing coaches. After losing everything in his first business—his health, his marriage, and his net worth—he rebuilt from the inside out. And what he discovered is now at the heart of his work: that the exit you're chasing starts with how you see, how you lead, and how you show up.
