Description

EP25 Rob Bryer: The Good Estate Agent Welcome to episode 25 of the Fail Forward podcast.    In this episode, I’m talking to Rob Bryer, founder of multiple property businesses including The Good Estate Agent. (https://openmoov.co.uk)   Over the course of the next 50 minutes, Rob will take you through the fascinating story of how he went from selling horse manure to a houses, before losing his family home, business and ultimately suffering a personal breakdown.    Rob’s positive outlook on his business journey gives an inspiring insight into the importance of taking time out, recognising when things need to reset and why he believes contentment can be a dangerous blocker to growth.   During the interview, I explore how Rob recovered from his early failures to create his highly successful estate agency business and property portfolio. Rob shares how a single sentence from his 8 year old son has such an impact that he changed his perspective and it remains, to this day, a lasting reminder of prioritising what’s important in life.    Throughout this episode, Rob is candid about his own successes and failures, sharing how he has used them to build lean and agile businesses resilient to the ebbs and flows of life and the economy which he is using to help others achieve their business goals.   Rob’s story demonstrates the importance of taking a philosophical view of life’s cycle of ups and downs, learning from every experience and always asking “What’s next” (as well as why every business owner should have a burner phone!).    Join me for a fascinating 50 minutes that is sure to leave you inspired and encouraged to seize opportunities, take risks and perhaps even make you curious to explore your own “what ifs”, because if all else fails - you will always learn and can always start again!   If you enjoy listening to Rob’s story, you can follow him on LinkedIn, YouTube, or Twitter. Alternatively you can contact him via his website.     If you’re enjoying the Fail Forward podcasts, follow me on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok or LinkedIn for all the latest on my mission to help business owners Fail Forward.    Facebook https://www.facebook.com/failforwardhenri LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/henri-ghijben-539132101/ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@failforward12 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/henrighijben/

Failure is only negative if you don’t learn from it Fail Forward is the weekly podcast hosted by entrepreneur and family man Henri Ghijben. In each episode you’ll hear from Henri and guests as they share real-life experiences of positives born from failure, reflections on the lessons learned from ‘losing it all, and what fuels Henri’s desire to help others overcome personal and business challenges in order to create the lives they want to live. Who is Henri Ghijben? Growing up in Bury St Edmunds, Henri’s first memorable experience of failure left him with the lasting ability to never get lost. It proved to be the first of many times Henri would fail forward. But it wasn’t until he faced losing his home, business and possibly even his family, that he realised the truth. Failure is only negative if you don’t learn from it. Against the odds, Henri has rebuilt from rock bottom. He’s now on a mission to help others avoid making the same mistakes he did, to help those facing failure see that there is a way back and that by failing forward they can enjoy success again. Ever thankful for the love and support of his family, the loyalty of his team and the help of business owners who helped him when the chips were down, Henri now lives in Southampton where he runs HRG Tree Surgeons, has growing property management and investment businesses and runs mentoring programmes for business owners, entrepreneurs and directors who are on their own growth journeys.
