#222. Sober Curious with Luke Mathers

So, what is 'Sober Curious'? Luke Mathers, author of Stress Teflon is in the studio this week to talk about the way we look at alcohol today, habit loops and some interesting facts about how these are affecting us.

 

Luke Mathers is a conference speaker and the author of Stress Teflon. 28 years in business have taught him that stress isn’t going away any time soon. If you want better health, relationships, and success, you need to get good at stress.  

As one of the original directors of Specsavers in Australia, Luke was part of the biggest retail roll-out in Australia’s history. 100 stores in 100 days. His practice was the biggest in the country and set global records that were previously unheard of.  

Luke retired for the first time at age 31. After transforming his UK Specsavers practice (increasing turnover by 350% in just three years) Luke returned to Australia to relax and put his feet up. It wasn't long before he realised, he missed something... STRESS!  

Helping people become Stress Teflon is his mission and, as the book says, “it’s good being you when stress doesn’t stick.”

#215. Why Good Company Culture Is a Backbone to Organizational Success With Niall Wogan

As Peter Drucker said - “Culture eats strategy for breakfast.” That’s not to say the strategy is unimportant – rather that a good company culture is a backbone to organizational success. Don’t confuse company VALUES vs VIRTUES. So, what makes good company culture? What is it not? Niall Wogan and Greg Young - two culture 'legends’ get together to chat about what a great culture looks like and why it matters.

 

Niall Wogan
CEO and Director of VERVE Fitness

Niall ran an international furniture company and quickly doubled its revenue from $20 to $40million after taking over as Managing Director. He then decided to start doing what he would love most; building a new brand and customer-focused company that would help promote health and fitness and be a great place to come to work each day. VERVE Fitness was formed in Europe in 2017 and launched in Australia in 2019.

It has quickly established itself as the leading supplier of gym equipment and operates from its state-of-the-art showroom and HQ in Gold Coast, among the largest in the country for fitness equipment.
He has lived in Germany, South Africa, and California, making Australia the fourth continent he has lived on. He loves working out and CrossFit (when he can avoid pushing too hard and getting injured!).

#213. Matej Varhalik Turns Back Pain Into a Million Dollar Brand - SpeedFit

Matej Varhalik is the co-founder and CEO of SpeedFit, a revolutionary fitness business at the forefront of electronic muscle stimulation (EMS) training technology.

 

The Slovakian-born, Perth-based entrepreneur was studying fitness in Australia when he identified an opportunity to introduce the low-impact, high-intensity training technology he had grown to love in Europe as a remedial solution for his back issues. As a businessman and new father, Matej also created SpeedFit out of personal frustration as he did not have the time to squeeze multiple gym sessions into his busy week.
