John Caudwell is a British entrepreneur and one of the most successful people in the world. After 10 years he built a mobile phone empire and then started to invest in other businesses. By 2018, he's worth £2.4 billion.   In this episode, I talk to John about how he turned his £20,000 into £2.4 billion. John's story is inspirational and shows how anyone can be successful if they put their mind to it.

The End of Solo

Awkward good-byes are the worst. It's not even like this is an open ending, it's just sorta…over. Every sailor has a has a story to tell. Going solo isn’t so bad. Especially when you have an important message to get across. After four years of ministering I welcome to the very last Sunday sailor episode of skirt just do it with me.   Solo episodes were never meant to be a thing anyway. Sunday solo episodes only happened because on May the 30th 2018 I didn't have an episode to put out. And being a stickler for consistency and knowing that the surest way to run a successful podcast is to be consistent with clarity and delivering what you promised.   When building this podcast I struggled to decide what the “meaning” of it should be... After awhile I realized I want to give others a voice, a chance to speak on a topic that you want to get out to everyone! So that is what I did & reached out too a bunch of successful entrepreneurs & the results are the most successful podcasts that were put out.   It’s time to tune into the new energy around us. So I just wanted to outline my reasons for doing this and kind of take the time out on this final solo episode to kind of map out what this podcast is going to look like and want to take it another level up.   Sponsored by Whole Supp. Shake up your nutrition and improve your gut health, immunity, recovery and energy with a complete, sustainable, plant-based nutrition.
