🎙 S02E24 | Andrew Schaverien – From Education Corps to Buyer’s Agent: A Career Helping the Helper

In this episode of Military Mindset for Business, we sit down with Andrew Schaverien—Army veteran, buyer’s agent, and founder of Ralph & Ralph.

Andrew’s career has always been about support—whether through service in the Education Corps, community leadership (including running for local government at just 21), or now as a buyer’s agent helping families find their homes.

While his Army journey was unconventional—never deploying and having his most northerly posting in Sydney—it gave him deep lessons in identity, purpose, and what it really means to serve. The All Corps Majors Course proved pivotal, helping Andrew distil who he truly is.

We cover:
 🔹 The meaning of service when your career path looks different from others
 🔹 Navigating identity and achievement in the shadow of an overachieving family
 🔹 The story behind Ralph & Ralph, and the legacy of his WWII veteran grandfather
 🔹 Publishing his first children’s book “My Family Is Buying a House”
 🔹 Why helping others find stability through home ownership is his next mission

💡 A must-listen for anyone redefining success, navigating life after Defence, or chasing a purpose-driven career.
