ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Paul Fua broke two world records, jet-skied 16,472km around Australia and helped raise more than $2.5 million for charity.
But achievement didn’t give him what he thought it would.
Paul went on to chase money and business success — until the Global Financial Crisis brought his business to its knees and forced him to question the pride and self-reliance that had driven much of his life.
Today, Paul has been a CEO, business owner, teacher and school principal, and now oversees an education system of 10 schools. His experience with thousands of young people gives him a unique perspective on what young men are searching for — purpose, identity and something worth living for.
In this conversation:
- Why breaking a world record wasn’t enough
- The trap of “I’ll be happy when…”
- Why success can still leave you empty
- Pride, ambition and the danger of self-reliance
- What young men are really searching for
- Why Paul walked away from opportunities worth millions
- The experience that transformed his faith at 40
- The evidence that convinced him to take God seriously
- Where to start if you’re open to exploring faith
You don’t need to be religious to listen to this.
If you’re chasing success, trying to figure out what your life is actually for, or quietly wondering whether there’s something more — this conversation is for you.
