From Homeless to Published Author - Matt Newnham

In this episode, I sit down with Matt Newnham, author, copywriter, speaker, and creator of the Space Ranger Fred series to talk about the real journey behind the books. From sofa-surfing to becoming a published author, Matt shares what it actually takes to turn creativity into a sustainable business. We dig into storytelling, resilience, rejection, and how his background in marketing and communications shaped his success as a writer. This is a conversation about building something meaningful, taking risks, learning fast, and sticking with it when the odds aren’t in your favour, lessons that apply far beyond publishing. If you’re building a business, chasing a creative career, or trying to turn an idea into something real, this episode is for you.
