In this episode, I sit down with one of the country’s most respected and thought-provoking leaders, Shannan Whitney. We talk about his leadership journey, what he believes he got right, what he’d do differently and how his upbringing, including losing connection with his father, shaped the way he leads and lives his life today. He opens up about the challenges of growing a fast-moving business, and the ongoing balancing act between work and family life. Shannan also shares his candid views on real estate agents, how they practice, how they’re perceived and reflects on the bold, often uncomfortable decisions he made early on, simply because he saw things differently. It’s honest, reflective, and deeply human.

Episode 2: I Shouldn’t Be Here. But I Am
Adrian sits down with his great friend Richie Harkham. In 2014, Richie’s life was split in two - before the crash, and everything after. A horrific motorbike accident nearly ended his life. He was thrown into oncoming traffic and, during one of his many surgeries, stopped breathing on the operating table. Doctors told him he’d never walk again and that his leg would need to be amputated. But Richie refused to accept that prognosis. What followed was years of relentless rehab, surgeries, and setbacks. He learned to walk again - not once, but eight times! And through it all, he developed an unshakable zest for life. This is a raw and powerful conversation about facing death, redefining what’s possible, choosing purpose over pity, and learning how to “bounce forward, not back”.

Episode 1: We Had It All, Until We Didn’t
Adrian sits down with his ex-wife, Chloe Matters (owner of Matters and Made), for an open and honest conversation about their separation and the journey they shared as partners, parents, and professionals navigating a high-pressure career. They reflect on what they got right, where things fell apart, and what they’ve learned. From building a life together to co-parenting and working side-by-side post-separation, this is a raw look behind the scenes of both relationships and the modern pressures of life in today’s world.@mattersandmade_
