About the Guest:

Hey, I’m Andrew. My journey’s been anything but a straight line. Picture this: a solid sales coach on the surface, but underneath, a life in disarray. I was nailing it in business, but my personal life? A wreck. A toxic relationship was just the start. Then, I found rock climbing. It wasn’t just a sport; it was my wake-up call, my way out of the mess I was in.

The real kicker came when my world seemed to fall apart—closing my business, leaving a relationship that was doing more harm than good, and stepping into the unknown. I took a year off, focusing on me. I hit the trails, lost 30 kilos, and got my mind right. It was tough, but it was real. I came out the other side knowing I had more to offer.

Project Remarkable came from those trials. It’s built on the idea that hitting rock bottom isn’t the end; it’s a chance to climb higher than you ever imagined. I've been there, done that, and now I’m here to guide you through it. I don’t do sugarcoating. I offer straight talk, real strategies, and the kind of support that knows firsthand how tough the climb can be.

This is about more than sales or fitness; it’s about finding your footing when the ground beneath you gives way. It’s about facing challenges head-on and coming out stronger. I’m here to show you how. Ready to start climbing?
