James Short shares the evolution of his journey from childhood lessons in relationships to becoming a fitness coach, a business owner, and ultimately one of Australia’s leading Real Estate performance coaches. He reflects on the early experiences that taught him what not to do in relationships and how those insights shaped the way he partners with leaders today, including his work as part of the inhouse team for The Lifestyle Group and their executive team.
James talks openly about the decision to separate from a business partner when alignment no longer existed, reinforcing his belief that purpose and shared values must sit at the centre of any collaboration. He explores how the disciplines of personal training and real estate performance coaching overlap, highlighting the role of self‑belief, consistency, and the quality of the questions we ask ourselves in driving high performance. Throughout the conversation, James brings the focus back to joy, why reflecting on it matters, how it fuels resilience, and the impact it has on the way individuals show up in business and in life.
