What if every founder secretly regrets starting their business?

In this episode, I dive into the highs and lows of building and scaling my agency over the past eight years. From the early days of being hands-on with every sale, project, and client, to now leading a 26-strong team across the UK and South Africa, my role has transformed from hustling in the trenches to steering strategy, growth, and culture.

I share the hidden truth many entrepreneurs won't admit: that regret often comes with the territory. From the sacrifices in the early years, to the boredom that can creep in once you step away from daily delivery, to the weight of responsibility as a business grows.

What You'll Learn

- Founder Reality Check: Why regret is a natural, if rarely admitted, part of the entrepreneurial journey.

- Scaling Challenges: How roles shift dramatically as your team grows, and why that can feel unsettling.

- Mindset Shifts: The importance of embracing change, staying resilient, and finding new projects to reignite passion.

This episode is a reminder that if you've ever questioned your path as a founder, you're not alone-and that growth, with all its challenges, is still one of the most rewarding journeys you can take.
