Description

EP31 Interview with Gordon Grant Welcome to episode 31 of the Fail Forward podcast.   In this episode I’m talking to Gordon Grant, founder of Dads Mean Business.    Over the course of the next 50 minutes, Gordon shares his journey from the weary days of selling bootleg video games, his life as a single, globe-trotting professional to the life-altering realisation that as a husband and father he needed to make significant changes to his life.   During the interview, I explore how Gordon recognised the need to change direction, what that meant for his business and how he rebuilt a new purpose-driven path that now allows him to help other dads create positive change in their own lives.     Learn about the 7 key steps of the Dads Mean Business programme and how its basis in accountability and commitment moves you incrementally towards your business and personal goals.   This thought-provoking episode will challenge you to open your mindset to the possibilities of doing things differently and show you the very real value of asking:   “What’s your one tip?”   If you enjoyed listening to Gordon’s story or would like to know more about Dads Mean Business, you can follow him on social media or 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.
