Beyond Just Business
Beyond Just Business is a podcast for people who know there’s more to life – and work – than just ticking boxes. Hosted by Paul and Andrew, it dives into the deeper questions behind success, fulfilment, and what it really means to thrive.
Through honest, thought-provoking conversations, they explore the mindsets, habits, and turning points that shape both our personal and professional lives. It’s about rethinking the rules, challenging assumptions, and discovering what matters most – beyond just business.
This isn’t about hustle culture or corporate clichés. It’s about the messy, meaningful space where real growth happens. Whether you’re running a business, leading a team, or simply figuring out your next step, you’ll find stories, insights, and ideas that speak to the heart of modern life.
Expect deep dives into the psychology of growth, the changing world of work, and how to live with more clarity, courage, and purpose. No fluff. No jargon. Just real talk – for real people, building real lives.

Beyond Just Business
The Stories We Tell Ourselves
In this episode, the focus is on the narratives we create about our past and how these stories can either propel us forward or hold us back. The conversation delves into the insights shared by Paul regarding the commonality he observes in successful individuals—they do not dwell on their past stories but use pivotal moments as springboards for future success. Meanwhile, those who linger on past traumas or events often find themselves stuck. The dialogue explores the power of internal narratives and the importance of taking proactive steps to reshape these stories for a better future. The episode concludes with actionable advice on controlling what you can and embracing change to live a more fulfilling life.
