Overcoming Financial Collapse, Rebuilding Identity, and Redefining Success with Roy Coughlan

On Mind Over Masculinity, Avik digs into the hard edges of losing it all—and rebuilding anyway. Entrepreneur and business podcast coach Roy Coughlan breaks down what it was like to go from managing developments and properties across countries to facing multi-million-dollar liabilities, court actions, and starting from zero. We focus on the mental game: dealing with shame, handling debt collectors, protecting your energy, practicing forgiveness, and staying present with family while rebuilding. If you’re a man navigating financial stress, this conversation is a practical reset for self-worth, resilience, and leadership.

About the Guest  :

Roy Coughlan is an Irish entrepreneur, business podcast coach, and multi-show host who has founded 20+ companies across five countries. He’s built charting podcasts, co-founded ventures including BrandGEM Fitness and VA.World, and now helps founders create systems, teams, and media that actually move the needle.

Key Takeaways  :

• Financial collapse hits your identity first; separating net worth from self-worth is step one.

• Document, don’t debate: when under pressure from creditors, prioritize written communication over phone calls to reduce harassment and keep records.

• Gratitude trains your attention; list what’s working daily to prevent scarcity spirals.

• Forgiveness is performance hygiene: releasing resentment frees cognitive bandwidth for problem-solving.

• Presence over panic: turn off notifications, focus on one role at a time (work vs. family), and your execution improves.

• Environment matters: avoid doom-scrolling and content that spikes fear; choose inputs (comedy, connection, movement) that stabilize your nervous system.

• Learn your rights: basic consumer/privacy rules and process literacy help you push back on unfair tactics.

• Don’t follow the herd: rebuild on values, not optics—no performative grind, just consistent action.

• Define success as capacity (clarity, health, time with your people), not only capital.

• Rebuild by cash flow first, not optics: small wins, recurring revenue, and tight expenses beat image plays.
