From fixing phones and running a clothing brand at school, to losing everything and moving to Wellington with nothing, Mungo opens up about the tough moments that shaped him.

We talk about his four years managing musician Rhys Rich, becoming a dad at 19, and how he built a removals business from the ground up. Now based in Australia, Mungo reflects on what he’s learned along the way, about work, pressure, family, and figuring things out as you go.

A conversation about resilience, mistakes, and moving forward. Really enjoyed this ep, I hope you do too!
