This episode of The UK Flooring Podcast is a very different one, as Tom Cockerill talks through one of his biggest passion projects: Make Or Break.
For nearly eight years, Tom has been running Make Or Break as an immersive course designed to push people past the limits they have built in their own heads. It is not a standard business course, and it is not about sitting in a room taking notes. It is about perception, performance, mindset, pressure, honesty, and proving to yourself that you are capable of more than you think.
Tom shares how his own experience on a similar course changed the way he showed up at home, at work, and in life. He also explains why Make Or Break is deliberately secretive, why attendees sign an NDA, and why the real value often comes from uncomfortable conversations, hard questions, and situations that force people to act differently.
This episode also touches on Make Or Break 2, a higher-level experience created for long-standing clients who had already been through the first course. Tom explains how little information was given before the event, why trust in the process matters, and what happened when those clients were pushed to their limit and beyond.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
Why Tom created Make Or Break after experiencing a similar course himself.
How limiting beliefs can hold people back in business, work, family life, and confidence.
Why uncomfortable situations can change your perception of what is possible.
How Make Or Break is designed to improve performance, mindset, and personal standards.
Why Tom believes the biggest limiting factor in most people’s progress is themselves.
How Make Or Break 2 pushed long-standing clients even further.
Why the course is kept secretive, invitation-led, and protected by an NDA.
Memorable Quote:
“The only limiting factor is you.”
