He shares his journey from being in a high positioned sales role to starting his own company. Might we add he started this company literally flat on his back in a bed for six months after a trampoline accident broke his back. They not only discuss the lessons Dave learnt along the way, but they also dive into very important social issues like parenting, the masculinity crisis and why Britain needs a transformation before it's too late.</p><p><br></p><p>Throughout this episode Dave shares how his personal faith strengthened him along every step of his journey including through his diagnosis of cancer 5 years ago. He went through treatment in the middle of COVID, spent weeks in hospital without his family, and had a choice between giving up or fighting like never before.</p><p><br></p><p>We think it's safe to say nothing was going to hold him back!</p><p><br></p><p>With Dave's unexplained optimism, this episode will change how you see success, suffering, and what actually matters.</p><p><br></p><p>_______________________________________________________________________</p><p><br></p><p>Follow David Morris:</p><p><br></p><p>LinkedIn -&nbsp;www.linkedin.com/in/dave-morris-70624412/</p><p><br></p><p>Follow Dylan Russell:</p><p><br></p><p>LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/dylan-russell-b33512163/&nbsp;</p><p>Instagram - @_dylan_russell</p><p><br></p><p>_______________________________________________________________________</p><p><br></p><p>Timestamps:</p><p><br></p><p>00:00:00 - Episode Trailer</p><p><strong>00:02:05</strong> - Introduction</p><p><strong>00:02:55</strong> - Early Career: Electronics Apprenticeship</p><p><strong>00:03:35</strong> - Meeting Wife &amp; Marriage</p><p><strong>00:05:00</strong> - First Sales Job at Marconi</p><p><strong>00:06:48</strong> - Sales Skills: Learning vs. Natural Talent</p><p><strong>00:09:00</strong> - Corporate Challenges &amp; Letting People Go</p><p><strong>00:11:33</strong> - Decision to Leave Corporate &amp; Start Own Company</p><p><strong>00:19:21</strong> - The Trampoline Accident Story (Detailed)</p><p><strong>00:21:00</strong> - Six Months Recovery &amp; Building Business from Floor</p><p><strong>00:25:26</strong> - House Burglary &amp; Finding the Backup Disc</p><p><strong>00:29:42</strong> - First Orders &amp; Early Business Success</p><p><strong>00:35:00</strong> - Measuring Success in Business</p><p><strong>00:39:13</strong> - Starting Multiple Companies</p><p><strong>00:41:00</strong> - Advice for Young Entrepreneurs</p><p><strong>00:42:33</strong> - The Scaling vs. Starting Dilemma</p><p><strong>00:49:28</strong> - Becoming a Christian at 29</p><p><strong>00:53:42</strong> - Tough Childhood &amp; Father Relationship</p><p><strong>00:58:20</strong> - What Makes a Man: Modern Masculinity Crisis</p><p><strong>01:06:40</strong> - Marriage &amp; Family Values</p><p><strong>01:13:52</strong> - Parenting Advice</p><p><strong>01:21:00</strong> - Britain's Current State &amp; Political Challenges</p><p><strong>01:28:20</strong> - Loss of Freedom of Speech</p><p><strong>01:36:16</strong> - Faith's Role in Business</p><p><strong>01:40:00</strong> - If You Were Prime Minister: Solving Britain's Problems</p><p><strong>01:32:00</strong> - Money Doesn't Equal Happiness</p><p><strong>01:36:40</strong> - Greatest Fears as a Business Owner</p><p><strong>01:40:02</strong> - Cancer Diagnosis &amp; Battle</p><p><strong>01:44:00</strong> - Message to Someone Facing Death</p><p><br></p><p>_______________________________________________________________________</p><p><br></p><p>See you next week,</p><p>Dylan</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Disclaimer: This podcast provides general educational information only, not professional advice.
