Sushi Founder: Your Life Is Your Responsibility, Here's How To Make It Better | Simon Woodroffe","description":"<p>On this week's episode, you're going to hear a conversation I had with Simon Woodroffe.</p><p><br></p><p>Simon founded YO! Sushi and YOTEL, grew the businesses into the empires they are today, and then sold both. His story is far from straightforward, though. From being arrested for drug dealing in his early years, to designing stages for some of the world's biggest rock stars, Simon has lived a full life, and he has all of the lessons that come with that.</p><p><br></p><p>We speak about money making you happy, about education reform, about how to get ahead in life, and what lessons Simon has learned in his business journey. </p><p><br></p><p>As a side note, it is great to be back recording guest episodes of the podcast, and this feels like the perfect place to begin again. Simon's mind is full of ideas that push us to rethink what we believe to be true, question our real potential, and check that we are having fun on the journey to our eventual destination.</p><p><br></p><p>Simon's brand new book YO! Man is available now: https://www.amazon.co.uk/YO-MAN-Robots-Reinventing-British/dp/1918191301</p><p><br></p>","author_name":"Sean Spooner"}
