This is one of the most valuable episodes for anyone trying to learn a new skill or master their craft.
Olly Richards comes on the show.
He spent the first 7 years of his “career” as a jazz musician. Then spent the next 7 years as an English teacher, traveling the world. After that, he spent 7 years building a $10M online education business.
Something about Olly's journey (mastering jazz, then languages, then entrepreneurship) reveals the truth about how humans actually learn that nobody wants to admit.
This episode was all about why traditional learning fails, how your brain actually absorbs information, the environment vs study myth, building systems that serve you, and so much more.

🎙 ABOUT THE PODCAST
I launched The Healthy Entrepreneur Podcast to uncover bold ideas, overlooked lessons and behind the scenes stories from the people shaping the way we live, work and think.
When I finished university and got a job as head of product at the world's largest digital publisher (500m+ monthly visitors) I thought I would be unstoppable, but I quickly realised I was the same as everyone else. It took a near death car crash with my fiance in 2022 to shock me into perceiving life differently.
I quit my job, sold my house and moved 4,000 miles around the world to start a business and a podcast, something I had always wanted to do.
Today, this podcast sits in the top 1% globally and we've had more than $3bn in guest appearances.
Life is short and difficult, but this podcast should make it a little bit easier.

Stop Wasting Your Life: How To Achieve Your Business Goals | Jodie Cook (Podcast with a twist)
Jodie Cook is a bestselling author, entrepreneur, and competitive powerlifter. In 2011, she started a digital agency that was acquired in 2021. She's a Forbes 30 under 30 list member (2017) and a senior contributor for Forbes, with over 20 million reads of her articles. She went nomadic, competed in powerlifting, and built a system for achieving any business goal you set.
In this episode with a twist, Jodie and I interview each other. We already know each other, we've had dinner with our partners, so we skip the basics and geek out on what we're both obsessed with: how to actually achieve the business goals you set.
We cover:
- her CLAIMS system for goal achievement
- the money mindset keeping your business stuck
- why 300 business degree students end up working mid-level jobs instead of running businesses
- how to judge people's character in seconds
- why the car crash was the best thing that happened to me
- visualization techniques that actually move the needle
- how to recognize when the universe is confirming you're on the right path
If you're an entrepreneur struggling to achieve your business goals, this conversation delivers the exact system, mindset shifts, and tactical frameworks you need.

🎙 ABOUT THE PODCAST
I launched The Healthy Entrepreneur Podcast to uncover bold ideas, overlooked lessons and behind the scenes stories from the people shaping the way we live, work and think.
When I finished university and got a job as head of product at the world's largest digital publisher (500m+ monthly visitors) I thought I would be unstoppable, but I quickly realised I was the same as everyone else. It took a near death car crash with my fiance in 2022 to shock me into perceiving life differently.
I quit my job, sold my house and moved 4,000 miles around the world to start a business and a podcast, something I had always wanted to do. Today, this podcast sits in the top 1% globally and we've had more than $3bn in guest appearances.
Life is short and difficult, but this podcast should make it a little bit easier.
