   The AI Nomad: How Nathan Clark Switches Tools Without Losing the Work

   Nathan Clark runs three clients on three different AI stacks. One has standardised on Claude, the next on ChatGPT, and he doesn't have the luxury of picking just one. So he built a system that lets him move between models and agent apps without starting over each time. Nathan Clark, founder of ReadyGTM, helps companies sharpen and scale their go-to-market motion, with a growing focus on AI implementation. On screen, he opens the file system underneath his work and hands a live piece of client work from one tool to another, showing exactly where the handoff still gets messy. The system is a folder structure on an always-on Mac Studio, reachable from his laptop, iPad and phone through Tailscale. The folders follow how Nathan runs his business: plan, market, sell, deliver, operate. Each client gets an AGENTS.md file, and a job that runs at 10pm each night sweeps his messages and files to keep those client files current, but it's only allowed to touch low-risk files. A centralised skills library is symlinked into every tool he uses, so the same skills are available whichever agent he's in. For the demo, Nathan works from a synthetic client, Acme Inc. He opens a sales diagnostic built in Codex, his daily driver, and explains why he delivers client reports as web pages rather than slide decks: clients are paying for clarity, and the evidence behind every number sits one click away. When he doesn't like parts of the design, he hands the same folder to Claude Code in the terminal and dictates the brief: strip the eyebrows and page numbers, add a dark-mode toggle. While that runs, he shows GrokBot answering client questions from the same underlying files. The change lands, dark mode works, and he goes back to Codex to push it live. The back half covers how Nathan picks tools. Codex does around 80% of his paid work because it follows precise instructions literally. Claude handles visual work and reads intent from looser prompts. Solo runs multi-agent builds for hours while he's elsewhere, and Amp's cloud-based Orbs keep environment and context intact without anything running on his desktop. Then the rough edges: memory drift in his file system, and agents that have pushed changes live when told not to. Nathan wants proper per-agent permissions rather than instructions an agent may or may not follow. It closes with a quick-fire round and Nathan's advice for anyone starting out: be more ambitious about what you ask AI to do, and when it names something you don't know, ask what it is and ask it to walk you through doing it. As he puts it, it's prompts all the way down. Nathan Clark is the founder of ReadyGTM, where he helps companies sharpen and scale their go-to-market motion and put AI to work in ways that move the numbers. He also works with Works.

   The Everlab Journey and Building Preventative Health

   Everlab has raised around A$80 million, including a recent A$65 million Series A, reached 20,000 patients and processed more than 21 million biomarker results. Now, after becoming one of Australia’s fastest-growing preventative health companies, it’s taking the model global. (Everlab) I first spoke to the Everlab team back in 2023. I loved what they were building then, but at the time there were plenty of skeptics about whether this kind of deeply personalised, data-heavy model of preventative healthcare could ever really work at scale. Three years later, they’re proving that it can. Longevity has become one of the most hyped corners of healthcare. There’s no shortage of supplements, biohacks, expensive tests and big promises about living longer. But while much of the industry is still selling the idea of longevity, Everlab is turning it into actual healthcare: doctors, diagnostics, longitudinal data, clinical follow-up and preventative care, delivered at increasingly serious scale. And the company is on a rocket-ship trajectory. Its A$65 million Series A was oversubscribed, it now works with more than 180 clinicians and 1,850 healthcare locations, and it is beginning its push into global markets. (Everlab) In Part One of this two-part conversation, I sit down with Dr Steven Lu, Everlab’s co-founder and Chief Medical Officer, to unpack how they actually built it, and what it takes to turn the promise of longevity into real-world medicine. We dive into: The Everlab journey, from an ambitious idea investors were skeptical of to raising around A$80 million and expanding globally Why longevity has exploded, and the gap between the hype surrounding the category and what good preventative medicine actually looks like What the Everlab patient journey actually looks like, and how its model differs from the healthcare most of us experience today How you take enormous amounts of fragmented health information and turn it into something clinically useful rather than simply giving a pile of test results Chapters 00:00 Preview: why prevention so often comes too late 01:04 The longevity boom: what's signal and what's expensive theatre 06:22 What "longevity" should mean: healthspan, not hype 10:24 Why prevention still loses to reactive care 17:48 Everlab's model: one plan built from your records 24:26 How AI and clinicians work together on patient data 28:40 The founding team, the mission and the early cases 34:05 Making prevention stick when you feel fine 38:21 Lessons from closing a whole-body MRI business 42:36 Whole-body scans: a great scan, not a magical one 44:39 Patients as customers: trust, Covid and consumer agency 49:46 Where Everlab and preventative care go next Links and resources What The Health: https://whatthehealth.io/ (https://whatthehealth.io/) Everlab: https://www.everlab.com.au/ (https://www.everlab.com.au/) Dr Steven Lu at Everlab: https://www.everlab.com.au/doctors (https://www.everlab.com.au/doctors) Tenmile Ventures: https://www.tenmile.com/ (https://www.tenmile.com/) Mentioned in the episode: Everlab's Series A announcement (the funding Emily cites): https://www.everlab.com.au/press/everlab-raises-au-65m-series-a-to-make-world-class-preventative-healthcare-something-everyone-can-access (https://www.everlab.com.au/press/everlab-raises-au-65m-series-a-to-make-world-class-preventative-healthcare-something-everyone-can-access) Neko Health's US$700m raise (Emily's reference to a recent whole-body scan raise): https://www.fiercehealthcare.com/health-tech/full-body-scan-startup-neko-health-scores-700m-break-us-market (https://www.fiercehealthcare.com/health-tech/full-body-scan-startup-neko-health-scores-700m-break-us-market) Australians live longer than previous decades but spend more years in poorer health (MJA InSight+): https://insightplus.mja.com.au/2026/27/australians-live-longer-than-previous-decades-but-spend-more-years-in-poorer-health (https://insightplus.mja.com.au/2026/27/australians-live-longer-than-previous-decades-but-spend-more-years-in-poorer-health) National Drug Strategy Household Survey 2022 to 2023 (AIHW; daily smoking is at a record low, while risky drinking is unchanged since 2019): https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/illicit-use-of-drugs/national-drug-strategy-household-survey-2022-2023/contents/summary (https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/illicit-use-of-drugs/national-drug-strategy-household-survey-2022-2023/contents/summary) Early-onset bowel cancer research, University of Melbourne: https://about.unimelb.edu.au/news-resources/awards-and-achievements/research-grants-funding/university-of-melbourne-researchers-funded-to-investigate-early-onset-cancer (https://about.unimelb.edu.au/news-resources/awards-and-achievements/research-grants-funding/university-of-melbourne-researchers-funded-to-investigate-early-onset-cancer) Search for the causes of rising early-onset bowel cancer, Adelaide University: https://adelaide.edu.au/about/news/2026/search-for-causes-of-rapid-rise-in-bowel-cancer-in-young-people/ (https://adelaide.edu.au/about/news/2026/search-for-causes-of-rapid-rise-in-bowel-cancer-in-young-people/) Warranty period of coronary CT angiography (European Heart Journal Cardiovascular Imaging, 2023; background to the "warranty" idea Steven describes): https://research.utu.fi/converis/portal/detail/Publication/178099808?lang=en_GB (https://research.utu.fi/converis/portal/detail/Publication/178099808?lang=en_GB) MoreGoodDays (the digital fibromyalgia program Steven mentions): https://moregooddays.com/ (https://moregooddays.com/) Subscribe for more conversations cutting through the noise in health technology, biotech and healthcare innovation.

   Jessica Christiansen-Franks - $1.2M Gone in Three Days

   Jess co-founded Neighbourlytics in 2017, taking the placemaking work she'd done as CEO of CoDesign Studio and turning it into a data product that measures what people actually do in a neighbourhood. It grew to cover more than twenty thousand neighbourhoods across twelve countries, raised about five million dollars across five rounds, and was acquired by REA Group in late 2025. She walks through the quarter the business was growing four hundred per cent a year and still only had fifty logins against $600,000 of revenue, why she sat her team down on a Friday lunchtime and told them she might have to give them four weeks notice, and the phishing scam that drained the bank account while she was at a wedding in the UK. She finishes with three life lessons: why it's always harder than you think and you can't believe your own bullshit, why the hard work of people and culture matters more than the four per cent of running a business that is raising investment, and why her identity was never the business - it was having a team.
