His unique blend of engineering rigor and real-world empathy makes his approach both innovative and practical. On this episode we talk about: Why fear is the root cause behind anxiety, procrastination, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and low confidence The “Funky Five” and how they sabotage your ability to make money and succeed Why most self-help and personal development tools don’t deliver permanent results The science behind Daniel’s Nervous System Reset and why the nervous system-not the mind-is the key to freedom How Daniel’s pay-at-the-end model puts results first and why he believes results matter most Top 3 Takeaways The real obstacle to making more money isn’t lack of tactics-it’s unresolved fear rooted in the body, specifically the nervous system. Most personal development focuses on managing symptoms, not solving the root problem; true change happens when you address the nervous system directly. Permanent transformation is possible with the right system, and you don’t have to live with anxiety or self-doubt holding you back from success. Notable Quotes “You do not have multiple problems. You have multiple symptoms of one thing, which is fear.” “Results matter.

He recently launched a holding company in the UAE with the goal of generating half a billion dollars in annual revenue within five years. Ross’s journey is a masterclass in creative deal-making, strategic growth, and the mindset required to succeed in business acquisition. On this episode we talk about: How Ross made the leap from employee to entrepreneur by starting a mobile physiotherapy business The critical role of spousal and partner support in entrepreneurial risk-taking Lessons learned from losing a major contract and pivoting to acquisitions Creative deal structures, including 100% seller financing and government-backed loans The importance of operating experience before buying businesses-and why small business acquisition is riskier than it looks How to source acquisition deals through networking, brokers, and outreach The pros and cons of buying small vs. larger businesses Why healthcare remains a resilient and attractive sector for acquisitions Top 3 Takeaways Start with what you know and build credibility. Ross’s journey shows that operating your own business first gives you the credibility and skills needed to succeed in acquisitions2. Creative financing makes acquisitions accessible. Seller financing and government-backed loans can help you buy businesses even if you don’t have large amounts of cash on hand2. Operating skills are essential. Acquiring a business is not a shortcut to passive income-understanding sales, marketing, HR, and operations is critical to avoid running a good business into the ground2. Notable Quotes “My first dollar was me carrying a bed with me to someone’s house and charging them for physiotherapy.”2 “The best conversation we had at the beginning was, ‘Do you want to do it or do you need to do it?’ I needed to do it for myself and my family.”2 “The success rate of small business acquisition is terrible… If you don’t have the necessary mindset and skill set to manage the money, you could take over a beautiful cash-flowing business and run it into the ground.”2 Connect with Ross Tomkins: Website: https://rosstomkins.co.uk/ Check out FranBridge Consulting for premier non-food franchise opportunities: travischappell.com/franbridge Learn more about your ad choices.
