Deadly Discussions Podcast Episode 30

Author: Isaac Harrison October 5, 2020 Duration: 55:05

Experienced business leader and Kamilaroi Man, Richard Hurst, joins me on the Deadly Discussions podcast.

I've been looking forward to getting Richard onto the podcast to hear his perspective on modern day money culture. The western financial model is a massive roadblock to our First Nations people trying to close the gap and get ahead. Many of our ancestors and parents were simply trying to make the best out of old knowledge while trying understand the new foreign system.

On this podcast we explore how mob should conduct ourselves in this day and age and discuss topics such as; wealth creation, cross cultural understanding, sales and marketing, being versatile in business and learning to overcome and press forward.


Isaac Harrison hosts Deadly Discussions, a series of conversations that digs into the human stories behind meaningful enterprise. Each episode moves beyond spreadsheets and business plans to explore how leaders and founders build ventures that genuinely serve the people around them. You’ll hear from individuals who measure success not just in profit, but in positive impact, discussing the real-world challenges and triumphs of running operations that support both communities and families. This podcast sits at the unique intersection of practical management, entrepreneurial spirit, and non-profit ethos, offering a grounded perspective often missing from typical business talk. The dialogue focuses on the decisions, values, and daily work that define a purpose-driven career. Tune in for honest reflections on what it means to do good business, providing listeners with both inspiration and actionable insight from those who are quietly getting it done.
