The Fun Side Of Business
This podcast is all about the people, the ones behind the brands.
We get into the real stories: the highs, the lows, and everything in between, without the polished filter.
Behind every business is a human story, full of risks, challenges, wins, and unexpected turns.
Business life? It’s not what you think.

Getting kicked out of school doesn’t exactly scream “future success”… but for Tom Hines, it was just the beginning.
In this episode, we chat with coach and Hindsight founder Tom Hines about how fear of failure can quietly shape your life, showing up as avoidance, self-doubt, and unrealised potential and how to flip that into confidence, purpose, and real impact.
From growing up in rural Suffolk with the classic “bags of potential” label, to working in corporate HR across different cultures, Tom shares a refreshingly honest journey. We dig into what actually drives behaviour at work: why people switch off in training, how influence really works, and why leaders who dodge vulnerability lose trust (even if they don’t realise it).
We also get into “sustainable joy” and why that Sunday night dread is a red flag, not just part of life.
