I cover the story of how after having work-related stress I quit my job, got hold of a run down far and transformed it. In this podcast I describe my journey - I faced nearly every type of challenge, tribunals, court hearings, numerous staff and property issues, system problems and near bankruptcy and survived to tell the tale.
I have learned that successful business ownership is a combination of mindset, business know-how and health and I have developed resilience, patience and learned to embrace failure for the lessons it carries. My book and this podcast describes my story and acts as a roadmap to help you and other people find their inspiration and live their dream life.
