  4. Michael Fox: Countryside sunrise, optimise for rate of learning in career, closing fashion biz, now building meat free movement + worrying stats about our diets!
The brilliant and inspiring Michael Fox  and I chat about
his sunrise in broken hill NSW with dad being a mining engineer
and mum a part time accountant who went back to uni later on to
do a masters and PHD!

Hear about the importance of optimising for rate of learning,
particularly early in your career: as Michael shares his
experiences in law, retail and tech which then led to founding
Shoes of Prey, a women's fashion company which Michael ended up
closing after 10 years of operation. Which is a big step to make
so I asked Michael about how he kept the trust of his employees
(some of them work with him now at Fable), the importance of
systems and routines particularly in the first 3 months after
closing the business.

Michael is now the founder and CEO of Fable Food Co, providing
delicious food that is plant based and on a mission to reduce
industrial animal agriculture, help you live longer and make the
world a better place! You’ll hear a number of confronting facts
including one where 95% of Aussies don’t get enough fiber in
their diet, wow! 

And as a bonus, I asked Michael about his 41 acre property in the
sunshine coast and his personal interest in social communal
living, growing fruit and veg and more.

Enjoy!
