#7 - Why Saying “No” Might Be the Most Powerful Thing You Ever Do

Most people think boundaries are about keeping others out. But really, they’re about letting the right things in.


In this episode, we explore how saying “no” with clarity (and without guilt) can unlock more energy, better relationships, stronger habits, and deeper self-respect. We talk about parenthood, partnerships, work life, and why the way you set boundaries often matters more than the rule itself.


Whether it’s skipping drinks at the wedding, blocking time for your workout, or protecting your attention from 9PM Slack messages—this one’s for anyone who’s tired of being pulled in every direction.

#6 - The Unseen Advantage: How Fitness Elevates Fatherhood, Business & Life

What if the real benefit of getting fitter isn’t just looking good – but showing up better for your family, your business, and your life?


In this wide-ranging conversation, Jake and Joe dive deep into the Transfer Effect – how training, eating well, and building consistency don’t just change your body… they upgrade everything.


They explore how fitness gives you an “unseen advantage” – more energy, better presence, sharper thinking – and how most people are stuck operating in a fog without realising it.


Expect thoughts on parenting, discipline, decision-making, boundaries, and why consistency is more powerful than motivation. They even touch on combat sports, male protection instincts, and why checking in with yourself might be the most underrated practice in modern life.


If you’re a high-performer, busy parent, or just someone who knows they could be operating at a higher level – this one’s for you.
