Today’s conversation is with Taylor McDonald, property investor, deal sourcer, and founder of 1st Seed Property.

Taylor’s story is one of grit, growth, and relentless self-development. From being kicked out of home at 17 to running one of Scotland’s most active sourcing businesses and building a property portfolio that now includes developments like Grey Harlings Hotel beside the fifth oldest golf course in the world, his rise has been anything but conventional.

In this conversation, we connect the dots from his early setbacks to his current success while unpacking the mindset, structure, and strategy behind scaling in property and business.

Expect to learn:

• How being kicked out at 17 shaped Taylor’s drive and identity
• Why it took until 21 for him to “knuckle down” and focus
• What first drew him to property and how he found his lane in a noisy industry
• The lessons learned from working as a chef and growing up around his dad’s landscaping business
• How mentorship and education through Paul McFadden’s Protégé programme transformed his approach
• The journey of starting, scaling, and selling his first business and why “profit is sanity, revenue is vanity”
• The biggest challenge or deal that burned him and how he responded
• What it takes to balance being both an investor and a sourcing business owner
• How to identify the right joint venture and private finance partners
• The confidence and vision behind the Grey Harlings hotel redevelopment in Montrose
• Why structure, discipline, and routine are non-negotiable in his life
• The role Jiu Jitsu plays in shaping mindset, humility, and consistency
• What the next 5 years look like for 1st Seed Property and Taylor’s wider investment journey

Today’s conversation is with Jon Wynn

Jon is a former Australian Special Forces soldier, sobriety advocate, fitness coach, and HYROX competitor.

Jon’s story is one of transformation from his early years in the military, to a battle with addiction that led him through 15 rehabilitation programs, and finally to a rebuilt life of fitness, fatherhood, and fulfilment in Majorca.

In this episode, we unpack what it really takes to rebuild your life from rock bottom, the mental cost of service and identity loss, and the daily discipline behind lasting recovery.

Expect to learn:

• What life was really like in the Special Forces and how Jon’s experiences in Afghanistan shaped him
• The truth about transitioning out of the military — and how easily identity and purpose can unravel
• The reality of addiction, relapse, and going through 15 rehab programs before real change stuck
• How Jon rebuilt his mindset, body, and habits to sustain sobriety and performance
• What he’s learned from injuries and setbacks, including two calf ruptures in back-to-back summers
• How HYROX competition helps fuel discipline and community post-recovery
• What success means to Jon now as a father, coach, and advocate for men’s mental health

• If the UK could really be heading for an IMF bailout.
• Whether Liz Truss’s plan was actually a feasible way out of the mess.
• Why David is moving to Portugal – and why many other Brits are following.
