At the age of 13, Jared Wiseman knew he wanted to settle for nothing less than living the ideal life. At 22, he launched his first business in the health and fitness industry and has since gone on to crush it ever since. Today Jared is a husband, father of 3, athlete, health nut, lifestyle guru, and coach to fellow business owners, helping them to live the dream life they want.

Jared steps into this episode to talk about the journey to believing you can live the life you want. From watching the adults around him, he knew as a teenager in Tasmania precisely what he didn't want in his life. He and his best school mate would create business plans of how they were going to escape the rat race. And that's exactly what he did. Hear how this sports nut and athlete turned a passion for health and fitness into a thriving personal training business.

One key theme of this chat is the importance of "owning your shit." Jared talks about why this matters in your life and business, plus how he's trying to instill personal responsibility into his children.

Jade and Jared also dive into topics around parenthood, like the idea that there's no time for what you want. They discuss how children are reflections of yourselves. Learn why many of the philosophies that we use with children equally apply to treating employees and our businesses.

Cue up this podcast to hear some philosophies about how you can achieve the life you want.

Key takeaways & quotes

Life on your terms: "Life's all about living your best life."
How to learn about business: "You can't learn business from a textbook. It's something that I think you have to get your hands dirty."
How to get results: "The key difference that I noticed with people that got results versus the people that didn't… was extreme ownership. It was just owning your shit. How many full-grown adults just don't understand that concept of just own your stuff?"
Setting an example for your kids: "I think leadership and walking the talk is still the best parenting that you can ever do. It's the same monkey see monkey do."
The difference between second-guessing or seeking validation: "There is nothing wrong with going and asking for the opinion, and for someone else's advice, it's understanding what your motivator was for that."
Why people abandon your business: "When clients leave, a lot of times it's they don't feel loved. When staff leave, they don't feel loved. So it's understanding what actually makes them feel alive."
How to achieve your goals: "The first step is knowing what you want. You don't need to know how, you got to forget the how. Know what you want, forget the how"
How to prioritize your time: "Pick your three to five things that are the most important and make those your habits, prioritize those first."
Be where you are: "When you live in that space where you are, you're living proactively rather than reactively. That other stuff just goes away, and the noise of it quietens down."
