    Description

    Welcome to this episode of the Fail Forward podcast.   In this episode I talk to John Beamson aka The CEO Adventurer.   “Be the first domino of happiness every day”   During a humorous and inspiring 55 minutes John talks about his journey from life in the British Army to leading ambitious CEOs on “robust days out” that test their endurance, challenging them to embrace life outside their comfort zone.   Triggered to make business changing decisions following no holds barred “constructive criticism” from renowned coaches, John took a brave step. Closing one of his successful businesses, he went all in to follow his passion - The CEO Adventurer.     From a complete overhaul of how he presented himself and his business, to his impulsive decision to embark on the  biggest challenge of his life, John’s zest for life is evident.    We explore what happiness means to John, the adverse impact of wealth and why DBS is his motto for life.   This frank and often funny episode poses questions that could seriously change your approach to the day - every day.    If you enjoyed listening to John and would like to find out more about working with him, click here to connect on LinkedIn.   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.
