No One Told Me This
No One Told Me This is a podcast about culture, leadership, teams, and all the tricky stuff that never makes the onboarding pack.
Hosted by Paul, this show dives into the honest, often messy reality of working with people, what we get wrong, what we learn the hard way, and what no one told us...or maybe we just weren’t listening.
From awkward feedback loops to team tension, shifting culture, and the pressure to “perform,” each episode offers a grounded take on what it really means to lead well when things are going well (or not).
Whether you’re building a team, shaping culture, or just trying to lead without losing the plot, you’re in good company here.

S01E12 - Waste Factory (Part 6): Burn It Down or Fix It
We’ve taken the full tour. Through the Time Furnace, the Rework Loop, the Silence Budget, and the Talent Skip Bin.
Now it’s time to talk about what happens next.
In this final episode of Inside the Waste Factory, Paul and Jase close the loop, unpacking why most businesses don’t fix the waste they see, what it takes to change that, and how to start noticing the quiet inefficiencies eating your time, energy, and profit.
You don’t have to burn it all down, but you do have to decide what stays, what goes, and what gets fixed for real.
🎧 Episode highlights:
- Why waste gets normalised (and how to break that cycle)
- The first step to spotting hidden costs in your business
- How to fix waste without chaos
