From Chronic Illness to 8-Figure Empire: Caleb Marshall, founder of Tropeaka, built one of Australia's fastest-growing supplement brands after doctors couldn't diagnose his mysterious illness. Starting as a tennis coach with zero business experience, he bootstrapped from his apartment to 70+ countries and major retail dominance.

In this episode, he reveals his contrarian approach to staying the bottleneck, building in-house manufacturing, and why being "too conservative" actually scaled his business faster than venture-backed competitors
