MINI EPISODES are back — and this one pulls no punches.

In the second instalment of this new short, sharp series, Ben Law — The Financial Bloke — tackles one of the biggest myths holding family businesses back: that being “nice” keeps the peace and holds things together.

It doesn’t.

In fact, being liked might be the very thing that’s keeping your family stuck.

Ben shares a raw story from his early career that revealed the difference between being respected and being effective — and lays out four practical strategies to build real influence (even if your family avoids every hard conversation).

You’ll discover:

• Why “being nice” is often the weakest leadership strategy
• The difference between rapport and real influence
• How to earn the right to challenge your family — without blowing things up
• A powerful one-liner that can unlock even the most stuck conversations

If you’re in a farming family where everyone “gets along fine” — but nothing ever changes — this episode is for you.
