Jeremy Latimore: 182 NRL Games, a 7-Figure Loss & the Mental Gym That Rebuilt His Life

Built Different Podcast

Show Notes

What happens when the footy stops? Jeremy Latimore played 182 NRL games across 11 seasons and 5 clubs - then retirement, COVID, a marriage breakdown, and a seven-figure stock market loss hit all at once. Jeremy joins Aaron Christie-David to talk about the "mental gym" that rebuilt his life: daily routines, goal books and five-year plans. They cover why athletes go broke, the #1 red flag a mate is struggling, buying four properties while moving 16 times between clubs, the mindset of big-game players like Nathan Cleary, and raising resilient kids through action, not words. Raw, funny and brutally honest - this is a masterclass in resilience, money and reinvention.

Habit scientist Dr Gina Cleo reveals the top habits of professional property investors. Dr Gina Cleo started out as a dietitian and couldn't get anyone, including herself, to change long-term.

Gina explains why your phone wins every morning (and which room it should charge in), the two circuit breakers for a cortisol-spiked morning, why your day starts the night before, and the sleep protocol her friends laugh at.
