Rich Tran is not your typical barber. He’s the founder of Ultrafade by Rich, a booming hair empire that grew from one small salon in Sefton to multiple thriving locations across Sydney—including the first-ever barbershop inside Bankstown Sports Club.
But behind the fades is a story of hardship, family breakdown, and fierce resilience. In this episode, Rich opens up like never before—sharing how he went from losing his family home due to gambling, to turning his last $100,000 into a powerful brand known across Australia. He reveals how his sister’s life-changing act of trust sparked the creation of a legacy, the toll it’s taken on his relationship with his mother, and the reality of building a business when no one believes in you.
We talk entrepreneurship, mental health, fatherhood, social media, and the emotional weight of being the one who broke the cycle. Whether you’re a creative, a business owner, or someone who's ever been underestimated—this conversation will hit home.
