What happens when the high of a lifetime trip slams headfirst into a business nightmare? Fresh from a dream holiday in Borneo, Joel returned not to a victory lap, but to a triple-threat gut punch: a surprise solicitor's letter demanding a huge sum, a client chargeback, and a team member's resignation.

| Growth – Avoid The Bulls***ting Guru | 08 juin 2025 | 00:29:04 | |
In a world awash with self-proclaimed experts and Instagram-perfect entrepreneurs, it’s a real challenge to separate genuine substance from slick spin. Many can talk a good game, sporting the right clothes and car, but scratch the surface and the depth simply isn't there. They might know all the business clichés and initially motivate you, but often falter when real problems arise. This episode of the Stay Hungry Podcast tackles how to see past these superficial displays. The hosts aim to help you identify those who only talk the talk. Joel and Martha delve into the tactics used by "business gurus" who often rely on polished branding and carefully constructed, sometimes exaggerated, sob stories to gain trust. They discuss how to spot "performative vulnerability," where emotional displays feel inauthentic, and vague advice shrouded in buzzwords like "alignment" or "my truth". The episode also scrutinises flashy success claims, such as ambiguously defined "seven figure launches," which often don't stand up to closer inspection. Ultimately, it’s about equipping you with the insight to recognise red flags and trust your own judgement in a crowded market. Here’s what you’ll learn: 🚩 How to spot vague, recycled advice that lacks real value. 🎭 The truth behind “performative vulnerability” and emotional manipulation. 📉 Why many of these gurus avoid specifics and metrics like the plague, and what that really tells you. 💸 What a big price tag definitely doesn’t guarantee. 🔑 How to stay grounded and trust your own judgement in a very noisy market. 🎧 Listen now.

| Mindset - She Climbed the Trek Without Me | 02 juin 2025 | 00:33:42 | |
Joel had planned it meticulously: a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Borneo to mark his wife Hannah’s recovery from major surgery. The centrepiece? A challenging rainforest trek to Coffin Cliff Point, a viewpoint so breathtaking it’s said to resemble an ocean of green. But the night before, illness hit. On the morning of his birthday, Joel was too unwell to get out of bed. Hannah had to go without him. That moment, watching someone he loves tackle something monumental, solo, sparked a powerful reflection. In business, just like in life, there comes a time when you have to step back. Whether it’s with staff, clients or even yourself, authentic leadership often means letting go and giving others the space to step up. In this episode, Joel and Martha delve into what it truly means to lead from the jungle to the boardroom.
If you’re running a business or just trying to be a better leader, this one’s unmissable. Listen now!

| Growth - They Were winning. They Still Left. | 25 mai 2025 | 00:36:46 | |
Ever delivered knockout results… only to watch a client walk? It’s a brutal truth of business: sometimes, amazing just isn't enough. In this episode of the Stay Hungry Podcast, Joel, fresh from a literal fever dream in Borneo (where he didn't see enough orangutans but did have a business epiphany!), and Martha unpack why. Using a real-life gut punch: a client who left despite an 18x return on ad spend, they reveal why your best work can vanish if clients don't see the 'so what?' and 'what's next?'. Whether you're in marketing, accounting, or any service game, if you're not constantly painting the bigger picture and showing the roadmap, you're risking it all. Joel and Martha dig into the common traps: assuming clients "just get it" (spoiler: they often don’t), failing to provide context for your wins, and not re-enrolling them in the exciting journey ahead. 🎯 Stop the Churn & Learn: Clients don’t leave because they’re losing. They leave because they can’t see what winning leads to. New episodes every Monday.

| Marketing - Don't stop. When ads work, double down | 18 mai 2025 | 00:35:14 | |
That’s the blunt truth most business owners ignore. When a marketing campaign, advertising strategy or sales system starts producing results, the natural instinct should be to scale. But too often, entrepreneurs get bored, distracted or afraid: they pivot. They chase the next trend or fiddle with what isn’t broken. The result? Momentum stalls, revenue plateaus, and growth opportunities vanish. This episode is your reminder to stick with what works, amplify your wins and stop looking for problems to solve when the solution is right in front of you.

| Marketing - The Real Reason People Hit 'Buy Now' | 11 mai 2025 | 00:39:31 | |
This episode delves into the psychology behind why people buy. It starts with Joel's recent impulse purchase of a car window smasher, triggered by seeing a flaming BMW, and explores why the most effective marketing sells outcomes, not just features. Joel and Martha discuss what really makes people click "Buy Now", exploring how fear based 'what if' scenarios can drive immediate purchases, even for problems people didn't know they had. They cover why success in sales often starts with making your audience 'problem aware' and focusing on the true issue your product solves. 🔍 Are your customers problem aware? Understanding if your audience knows they need a solution. 💡 The “What If?” Strategy: Tapping into emotional triggers and future fears, not just logic. 🔥 From flaming BMWs to window smashers: How specific events create instant problem awareness. 🎁 How poor gift giving mirrors poor marketing: Why understanding the recipient's actual needs matters (even for custom Game Boys!). 🛠️ Selling Outcomes, Not Features: Focusing on the result (like the hole in the wall, not the drill) is key. Whether you are selling candles, consultancy, or even Lynx clickers, this episode will shift how you think about your audience’s underlying problems and what truly motivates them to buy. 🎧 Listen now: “Marketing – Why They Really Buy: Uncovering the True Pain Point” Links: Joel's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joelstoneofficial/ Free Marketing Budget Calculator: https://codebreak.outgrow.us/knowyournumbers Arrange a call with Codebreak: https://form.jotform.com/241272835208051 | |||

| Mindset: Break Eggs to Breakthrough Success | 14 oct. 2024 | 00:31:04 | |
In this episode of the Stay Hungry podcast, Joel Stone breaks down the uncomfortable truth about business growth: it requires breaking a few "eggs." Drawing from the classic saying, "You can't make an omelette without breaking eggs," Joel discusses why stepping out of your comfort zone is essential for creating real results in business. Joel starts by explaining how staying in your comfort zone stifles growth, sharing client stories that illustrate the breakthroughs from embracing discomfort.

The episode concludes by exploring the concept of protectionism, warning business owners about holding on too tightly to what they have at the expense of growth.
