Bankruptcy wasn't the hardest part - I failed my family

He Had The Porsche, The Business, And The Dream Home. Then He Lost It All.

What actually happens when a successful business owner loses everything overnight. In this raw, unfiltered episode of Tomorrow's Not Today, insolvency expert Hank reveals the real story behind his bankruptcy at 35, the night he had to leave his family home, and why he hid the truth from his wife for months. This is one of the most honest conversations we've ever had on the show.

Hank is the founder of De Jong Reid, one of Australia's largest pre-insolvency advisory firms, helping over 300 business owners every year navigate financial distress, liquidation, and bankruptcy. After building a six figure business by the age of 35, a single global crisis wiped it out almost overnight, taking his house, his cars, and nearly his marriage with it. What followed was shame, silence, and a complete rebuild from a card table in the back of a smoke oven shop.
