The Oddi Poddi

Alexander Phillips is the number one real estate agent in Australia and has been for over a decade. He joins me on the podcast to talk about what it actually takes to operate at that level - the preparation, the process, and the relentless drive that most people never see behind the results.

We get into what's happening in the property market right now, why he thinks this is one of the hardest markets in 20 years, and how he manages the pressure of carrying 44 listings without losing his mind.

But we also go deeper than real estate. Alex talks about what success has cost him personally and why circuit breakers aren't optional at his level.

He's someone who has redefined what's possible in this industry, and he's refreshingly honest about the gap between how it looks from the outside and what it actually takes to sustain it.

Damian Cooley is one of the country’s best auctioneers, in fact regarded by many as the best for the past 20 years. He joins the podcast to share how he completely reset his life after a period of personal and professional turmoil.

We talk auctions, the property market, and unpack how his habits, lifestyle and health have driven his comeback. He speaks openly about the link between how he feels physically and how he performs professionally, and how getting that right changed everything.

Beyond property, we get into the reality of separation and loss, and what it really means to show up as a present father. It’s a raw, honest conversation about where real fulfilment and legacy actually come from.

Jack Parry works directly alongside me, and over the past two years has completely transformed his life, with the last 12 months being a turning point, both personally and professionally.

We break down why his best year had nothing to do with the market, and everything to do with his habits, lifestyle, and focus.
