Charlie Gearside co-founded a $1.6 billion telehealth empire from scratch. No medical background, no blueprint, just a bet that Australians deserved better access to healthcare. But now he's turned his attention to something bigger, a cultural movement to remind Australia how to take risks again. This episode covers how Eucalyptus went from a $2 million Blackbird raise to a US acquisition, why Australia's business creation rate has been declining since the 1970s, and what Charlie is doing about it through Build Australia.

"It's Only Going to Get Worse": Entrepreneur Charlie Gearside on How Australia Becomes a Winner Again

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/70568109-88ff-44a6-9787-b4b2005cb81e/transcript

Mark Webber is 1 of only 5 Australians to win a Formula 1 Grand Prix and a 9-time race winner who competed at the highest level of motorsport for over a decade alongside Michael Schumacher, Sebastian Vettel, and Lewis Hamilton.

In this episode, Mark traces his journey from being a ball boy for the Canberra Raiders in Queanbeyan to holding up that 1st-place trophy on the infamous Monaco podium... twice. Webber took me through the decisions, mentors, and mindset shifts that defined his incredible career, covering how he went from a 2-race contract to a successful Formula 1 career, what he believes all the greats have in common, his near-fatal crash at 280km/h, and working with Oscar Piastri.

This conversation is as much about what it takes to build an elite life as it is about Mark's incredible journey. You don't want to miss this one.
