What does it look like when an entrepreneur applies business discipline to comedy – and comedy thinking to business?

In this episode of Naked at the Top, Morry Morgan shares the unconventional path that took him from an only-child upbringing and global travel, through China’s fast-moving business culture, and into building one of the most unexpected ventures in Australia: a comedy school and conference that shouldn’t exist – but does.

This conversation is about preparation, courage, and following ideas all the way through. Morry unpacks how five minutes on stage became the turning point for an entirely new career direction, why breaking comedy’s rules unlocked commercial opportunity, and how creating something niche can actually grow the wider economy.

We explore the reality of fast-speed living, the mental cost of always being “on”, and the resilience required when momentum disappears overnight. Morry speaks candidly about burnout, anxiety, fasting, and the mindset shift that turned a breakdown into a breakthrough.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your strangest idea might actually be your most viable one – this episode will challenge how you think about preparation, energy, and commitment. This is a conversation for founders, creatives, and leaders who don’t fit neatly into one box – and don’t want to.

Some careers begin with a plan. Others begin with a quiet decision made far earlier than anyone expects.

In this episode of Naked at the Top, Aleyx sits down with Colleen Callander — a leader who started working in retail at just 16 and went on to become CEO of two of Australia’s most iconic fashion brands. But this conversation isn’t about polished confidence or highlight-reel success.

Colleen speaks candidly about imposter syndrome that never truly disappeared, burnout that hit at the peak of her career, and the internal stories that quietly shape how leaders show up every day. She shares why confidence isn’t something you’re born with, but something you build through action, reflection, and repetition.

This episode explores leadership through a deeply human lens — kindness as a strength, values as decision-makers, and environments where people genuinely want to do their best work. From redefining success to rebuilding after burnout, Colleen offers grounded insight for anyone navigating leadership, ambition, or self-belief.

If you’ve ever looked capable on the outside while questioning yourself on the inside, this episode will resonate deeply.

Alan Gill brings a rare mix of sharp business instinct and playful curiosity to this conversation. As co-founder of Choice Energy, one of the fastest-growing energy businesses in AsiaPac, he has lived through the chaos, pressure and exhilaration of scaling at speed. Yet beneath the targets and milestones sits a leader who still draws sharks in meetings, turns corporate stresses into comedy, and uses creativity as a tool for clarity, connection and calm. This episode reveals the human side of ambition, from startup survival to finding joy in the everyday.

Aleyx and Alan explore the early days of building a business with no safety net, raising a young family at the same time, and carrying the weight of responsibility when people are relying on you for their livelihood. They dive into leadership identity, humour as a resilience strategy, navigating growth, and why the best insights often come from childlike curiosity rather than boardroom bravado.

Through stories about sharks, toilet echo disasters, corporate lessons, cultural contrasts and the people who keep him grounded, Alan gives a refreshingly honest view of what leadership feels like behind the scenes. Not polished. Not filtered. Simply human. This is an episode for anyone building something meaningful while trying to stay connected to who they really are.

Alan’s reflections land with warmth, wisdom and a healthy dose of mischief. If you’re growing a business, leading people or simply trying to make sense of ambition while still living a life that feels like yours, this conversation will stay with you.
