In this episode, I interview Steve McCullagh, the CEO of Healthy Business based in Hobart, Australia. Steve has set up his own business to support workplaces and people to improve health, safety, and well-being. With over 10 years of experience working as a sports physio, Steve has decided to change his career and pursue new opportunities related to health.

Steve has said that growing a small business requires setting your own schedule and ensuring that you’re not getting carried away by what presents itself.
