No One Told Me This
No One Told Me This is a podcast about leadership, teams, and workplace culture, not as they’re meant to work, but as they’re actually experienced.
Hosted by Paul, the show explores the unspoken realities of working with people, the assumptions we make, the tensions we avoid, and the things we often learn the hard way. Through solo reflections, candid conversations, and the occasional deep dive, it’s a space to make sense of how work really gets done.
From culture drift and team dynamics to decision-making under pressure, each episode takes a grounded, thoughtful look at what leadership looks like in practice, especially when things aren’t neat or predictable.
Because sometimes the most important lessons aren’t the ones we’re taught. They’re the ones no one told us… or maybe we just weren’t listening.

S01E03 - Trust vs Confidence (They’re Not the Same Thing)
We say we want trust in teams, but what if that’s not really the issue?
This episode flips the usual script and introduces a new lens: Trust and Confidence aren’t the same thing, and confusing them might be costing you more than you think.
From tradies to tech startups, this one’s for anyone trying to lead a team and wondering why it still feels hard.
Plus, an honest take on where trust actually comes from, and how to tell if it’s really there.
