Comment your best takeaway from the conversation to be flown out to spend a day on Simon’s Lamborghini yacht! (More info at the end of the episode)


Today I sit down with my good friend Simon Beard on his Lamborghini boat to talk about something most people never prepare for:


What actually happens after you win.


Simon is one of Australia’s most successful entrepreneurs, best known as the co-founder of Culture Kings and for building one of the most iconic retail brands in the country. 


We talk about emotional control, ego, pressure, decision making, building a strong marriage, and what it really takes to build a life that doesn’t fall apart once you achieve your dreams.


Key Discussion Points

  • Why emotional control matters more than intelligence
  • The most dangerous moment in any successful career
  • How ego quietly destroys great businesses
  • The decisions that can’t be undone
  • Building a successful marriage
  • The challenges of raising kids with extreme wealth
