Today’s episode is with Cade Robertson.
Cade has built multiple businesses, lost a lot of money, started again, failed, learnt, rebuilt and just keeps backing himself through all of it.
We talk about ambition, failure, money, grief, relationships, friendship, self-belief, taking responsibility for your life and the uncomfortable reality that sometimes you already know what you need to do… you just aren’t doing it.
We get into: Cade’s first ever “business” at 15 years old and how his entrepreneurial mindset started
The businesses he’s built, lost money on and eventually had to walk away from
Why he doesn’t see failure as failure, but as a lesson
The mindset that allowed him to keep backing himself even when he had nothing
Why he believes the worst-case scenario is often just your current situation
Learning to take risks without needing to know exactly how everything will work out
Why ambition doesn’t have to look the same for everyone
The difference between wanting success and actually knowing what you want your life to look like
Why you need to bring value to the people you want to build relationships with
Networking, self-development and becoming someone people actually want in the room
The relationship between money, work and stress
Why sometimes the thing you need isn’t another thing to calm your nervous system, but simply doing the things you already know you need to do
The difference between what society tells you is “hard” and what is actually hard for YOU
Cade’s relationship with his grandpa and how losing him changed the way he looks at life
Turning grief and painful experiences into something that pushes you forward
Why some of the worst things that happen to you can eventually become the reason your life changed
Learning to trust the dots will connect when you look backwards
Taking responsibility for how you respond to whatever life throws at you
Why your friendship group and the people around you can completely change what you consider normal
The importance of surrounding yourself with people who challenge you to live up to your potential
What Cade would tell someone who knows they’re capable of more but is scared, procrastinating or waiting for the right time
As always, this is just our own experiences and perspectives. You don’t have to want the same things we do or define success in the same way. I think the bigger conversation is about figuring out what actually matters to YOU, and then being willing to back yourself enough to go after it.
