Matt Moran - Surround Yourself With the Right People

This is a podcast where we sit down with some very successful people from the world of business, entertainment and sport about their life’s journey and what got them to the position that they’re in today.

In today’s episode we are chatting with celebrity chef and restaurateur Matt Moran.

Matt grew up like a lot of other country kids. He didn’t like school. He liked playing sport with his friends and hanging out with his brother.

And when he came through, chefs were, as he says, ‘the dirty buggers out the back that no one really cared about until we started owning restaurants and then they had to care because they wanted a good table.”

Matt’s success took a lot of grit and a lot of hard work.

In this chat we talk about his early days in the kitchen and how his life took some interesting paths that led him to becoming a celebrity chef. We speak about his life in TV and his friendship with other celebrity chefs like Gordon Ramsay, as well as the importance of things like hats and Michelin stars for business in the restaurant game.

We also talk about Matt’s family and his ying-yang style of relationship with his beautiful wife Sarah.

Sitting down with Matt feels like you’re catching up with a mate for a beer.
