• From Housing Commission to 8 Figures: The Trauma That Built a Business Empire With Aj Williams

  Send us a textAJ Williams: From Housing Commission to 8-Figure Sauna EmpireGuest: AJ Williams - Co-founder Revel Saunas, mental health advocate, former pro athleteThe Story: Built 8-figure business in 18 months, but real breakthrough came from understanding how childhood trauma was sabotaging his success.Key InsightsThe Thursday Night Pattern: AJ still gets panic attacks every Thursday - the exact night his alcoholic stepfather came home violent. His nervous system never forgot the timing, 20+ years later.Scaling Trauma:$1-3M: Power through with control$3-10M: Must delegate (triggers abandonment fears)$10M+: Leadership requires healing survival patternsThe People-Pleasing Paradox: Fought abusive stepfather at 14, but struggles setting boundaries with employees. Childhood protectors become adult people-pleasers.The 1% Strategy: "If I help one CEO, that impacts hundreds of employees. If I help one NRL player become a better father, thousands of kids benefit."Business LessonsHiring: "Dating before marriage" - contractors before full-time, plus DISC profiling prevents culture disasters.Accessibility Trap: Being too available undermines managers and burns you out. Boundaries improve relationships, not harm them.The Relatability Factor: Why traditional therapy failed him but breathwork/ice baths worked - relatability beats qualifications for real breakthrough.Quotables"I'm not afraid to fail. I've had nothing before - I'll figure it out again.""Success is a long, healthy life surrounded by people who love me and being a good father.""Your childhood is running your company whether you realize it or not."The Uncomfortable Truth8-figure revenue didn't stop panic attacks. External success can't heal internal patterns - that requires different work.Connect: @iamaajwilliams | Revel Saunas | Breathwork retreat coming Gold Coast MayYour trauma might be your superpower, but only if you're willing to transform it.
