Episode Synopsis

For years Pete Tansley was chasing it — the business, the hustle, the status, the approval. Underneath it all? A chip on his shoulder, the need to make his dad proud and a nice-guy mask that left him exhausted.In this conversation we unpack the messy middle: rushing deals to look successful, bottoming out financially and emotionally, the wake-up calls that came through therapy, divorce and reconnecting with his dad.Pete shares what it took to finally move from proving and pleasing others to actually being himself — as a dad, a coach, and a human learning to value presence over performance.If you’ve ever felt stuck in the grind of needing to “look like you’ve got it together,” this one will hit home.Connect with Rick: https://www.rickwatson.com.auConnect with Pete: https://www.instagram.com/petetansleyTAKE THE REPEATING PATTERN QUIZ: htyps://www.rickwatson.com.au/quiz
