  • From 7-Eleven to IT CEO: Hassan Shah's Insights
    Dec 3 2025

    From late-night shifts to running a healthcare IT company, this episode is all about turning hustle into impact.


    Victor sits down with Hassan, founder of Healthcare IT Solutions, to unpack how he went from a new migrant trying to find his feet… to protecting clinics, dentists, and everyday Aussies from cyber attacks.


    They dive into the real risks business owners face online, the scams that actually work (and why), and how simple systems — in both tech and money — can reduce stress for you, your staff, and your family. If you run a clinic, small business, or you’re just the unofficial “IT person” at home, this one will save you headaches.


    📘 What You’ll Learn

    -Why small businesses and clinics are prime targets for cyber attacks

    -Simple cybersecurity must-dos: passwords, MFA, software updates & safe Wi-Fi use

    -Real-life scam stories (including the “gift card” trap) — and what to do if you get that call or SMS

    -The link between tech resilience, cash flow structure, and building long-term family wealth


    ⏱️ Timestamps

    00:00 – Why cyber risk is now a everyday problem for families & business owners

    03:20 – From early jobs & family expectations to starting an IT career

    11:10 – Cyber basics: passwords, MFA, and why “easy” logins are a trap

    16:00 – Windows updates, old systems & why end-of-support is a big risk

    31:20 – Hassan’s cash flow wake-up call: buckets, buffers, and peace of mind

    40:15 – Family, legacy, and why planning ahead matters for busy founders
