Episode Description from the Publisher

Mark Rolton returns on the show and this time we dove deep on ego, parenting, the cost of success and where it becomes to far, the opportunity inside the scary landscape of the world, his views on Trump and so much more. Mark is one of the biggest property moguls in Australia and has sat beside some of the biggest names in the world. His wisdom is quite profound and he is one of my favourite people to sit down with on the show. Enjoy.
