In today’s episode, we explore what it really means to start and grow a business—long before you feel ready.
Inspired by a story from Richard Branson about building a business from a phone box at just 16, we dive into the power of taking action without having everything figured out. No funding, no network, no experience—just belief, persistence, and the willingness to start.
I also share my own journey of launching a DVD rental business with no stock, securing major deals, and figuring things out under pressure. From winning opportunities with brands like Superquinn, HMV, and Virgin Wines, to the reality of asking: “How are we actually going to deliver this?”—this is what real entrepreneurship looks like.

If you’re an entrepreneur, founder, or someone thinking about starting a business, this episode will challenge you to stop waiting—and start doing.
