Our Story

Builtonabet.Fuelledbyobsession.

2020

The spark

Kyle was running a consulting business that comfortably paid six figures. But day by day, the passion was fading. The one thing still lighting him up? His podcast.

2021

Going all in

Video podcasting was exploding in the US — aesthetic sets, cinematic production, creators building empires. The "I Am Athlete" podcast was the one that did it. Kyle leased a studio, bought a heap of equipment, hired a full-time producer, and launched Pivotal Conversations.

2022

The bet

Kyle closed the consulting business entirely. 12 months of runway. No plan B. He rebranded the show to Startup Diaries — his love letter to business — and transformed Pivotal Conversations into a network.

Nov 2022

Top 10 in Australia

Startup Diaries cracked the top 10 business podcasts in Australia for five weeks straight. With one month of cash left in the bank, Kyle closed a six-figure brand deal.

2023

The pivot

The mission became clear: build Australia's home of podcasting. A direct-to-consumer offering that made starting a podcast feel simple, accessible, and world-class.

Jul 2023

Harlow

Kyle's daughter Harlow was born and everything changed. He stepped back from Startup Diaries to pour his energy into her early life — and into scaling Pivotal Conversations.

2024

Multi-city expansion

Studios opened in Sydney and the Gold Coast, bringing Pivotal to three major Australian cities. The team grew. The client list grew faster.

2025

200+ clients

Pivotal became home to some of Australia's fastest-growing podcasts. Hundreds of members. Millions of views every month. Melbourne hit capacity — massive waitlist, one studio, half the team in a coworking space.

2026

The flagship

The biggest, most aesthetic podcast studio in Australia. Three purpose-built recording spaces — SOL, LUNA, and TERRA — plus a headquarters for the Melbourne team. Level 2, 71 Langridge Street, Collingwood.
