2: How the Budget shapes Business
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Each month, alongside a guest episode, we’ll be releasing an episode with members of the team here at Toast. This is where we’ll cover what’s going on in the Business sector, the trends we are noticing, and some down to earth chat about the ups and downs of business life.
In this episode, Michael and Steven take a step back to unpack what the latest Budget really means for business owners and how it should influence the decisions you’re making now and into 2026.
We also open up about life at Toast: what it’s been like launching this podcast, how the process has challenged us, and why we believe these conversations matter. We reflect on the lessons from 2025, what’s shaped the year, and how we’re thinking about planning ahead with clarity and intent.
