Beyond The Hustle Aotearoa

Home Invasion to Head Chef - The Story Behind the Man w Sharne Pollard

Anton & Jess Matthews

🎙️ Beyond the Hustle | Sharne Pollard 

Kia ora! In this episode I sit down with my bro Sharne Pollard, a pāpā, partner, and one of the most loyal kaimahi at Hustle Group. Over the past 10 years, I’ve watched him grow from an awesome chef into a courageous leader and a better man.

In this kōrero, Sharne opens up about his upbringing - from bouncing between homes, facing violence, and watching addiction up close, to becoming a role model and pāpā navigating blended whānau life. He shares how moments like the Barber Hui helped him break generational cycles, and why loyalty, vulnerability, and showing up for your tamariki truly matter.

This one is for anyone who’s had a tough start and is trying to do better - for themselves, their whānau, and their future.

📌 Listen til the end because there's real gold in this kōrero.
