On the New Leaf Podcast, Founder Mark Hobbs welcomes two of the network's most successful and long-standing advisers, Mark Scott and Marta Scott-Manuszewska, who run Positive Advisers and Five Star Mortgages. This episode is an uncensored look at entrepreneurial resilience.

In a candid chat, they discuss how they started with almost nothing after leaving a previous firm, built their business quickly from their dining room table, and are now a 

team of 12 desperate for more advisers due to the sheer volume of leads they generate.

Mark and Marta dissect the keys to their 10-year partnership with New Leaf, revealing why the 

joint venture mentality and direct access to compliance is non-negotiable for their growth. They also share their unique strategy for successfully recruiting and progressing new-to-industry advisers , and how their focus on a family-friendly firm has resulted in a predominantly female workforce.
