Each episode features unfiltered insights from me and guests who’ve built it, lost it, and built it back bigger.
So buckle up. It’s time to learn how to do business, properly.

Unleash Your Focus: Why You're Really Distracted (It's NOT Your Phone) & The Secret to Unstoppable Concentration.
Are distractions killing your productivity? In this episode, Matt Haycox flips the mic and shares his raw truth about focus, discipline, and doing work that actually matters. Forget bollocks, this is the no-nonsense breakdown of why most people fail to stay focused, anda how to fix it.
Matt explains how loving what you do is the ultimate productivity hack, and why most time management advice is total rubbish. He opens up about childhood passions, running businesses, and what changed when he stopped chasing the wrong goals.
Expect sharp takes on modern-day distractions (yep, social media, office noise, and emails), real tactics to reclaim your time, and a mindset shift that could literally change your life.
Whether you're a startup founder, creative, or corporate professional, this is the truth bomb you've been needing.
Listen if you want to:
- Stop procrastinating for good
- Get laser-focused on what actually matters
- Rewire your mindset for long-term success
