My newsletter: https://simonowens.substack.com/   When Will Richards first started compiling news about startups, he wasn't trying to launch a media company. He was working at a family office and needed a better way to track what was happening across the Australian startup ecosystem. After realizing there wasn't a single place that aggregated all this information, he began sending out a weekly email. That side project eventually evolved into Overnight Success, a newsletter read by thousands of founders, investors, and startup operators. But Richards didn't stop at building a newsletter. He's since expanded Overnight Success into a broader business that includes sponsorships, a startup database, and an investment syndicate. In our interview, we discussed how he grew within such a narrow niche, why a small audience can still attract major sponsors, and how he's turning years of startup coverage into a valuable data product.  

Send us Fan MailJames Ashford sold GoProposal to Sage for an eight-figure sum. People hear that and picture a clean line from idea to payday. It took him two decades, several businesses that died along the way, and one moment where he couldn't afford the fee to shut a company down.He started as a wedding magician, walking straight up to the rowdiest table in the room on purpose. What he learned there became the thing every later business ran on. The failures came too: an agency he loved, gone over a single decision. A marriage under strain. A debt a friend had to cover for him.Then a mentor asked him one blunt question, and the answer changed how he built everything after.The part people don't see coming is what the exit actually did to him. The win arrived, and so did something he hadn't planned for. He talks about it more honestly here than most founders ever will, including the redefinition of "wealth" he landed on at the end, which is not the one he set out chasing.If you're building something you hope to sell, or you already have and it feels stranger than you expected, this one's worth your time.What Alan and James get into:Why he targeted the worst table in the room, every timeThe agency that went under from one bad call, and what it cost him beyond moneyThe liquidation he couldn't pay for himselfA million-pound cheque pinned to a bedroom ceiling years before it meant anythingThe mentor question that rearranged his whole approachHow he picked who would buy his company long before they knew they wouldThe second Range Rover he ordered and sent straight backThe thing nobody warns you about on the other side of an exitThe definition of "true wealth" he arrived at, and how late it cameConnect with JamesWebsite: https://jamesashford.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamesashford/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejamesashfordTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fireproofjamesJames's bookSelling to ServeOther Book Recommendations:Building a StoryBrand by Donald MillerThe E-Myth Revisited by Michael GerberThe Psychology of Money by Morgan HouselRich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert KiyosakiThe Richest Man in Babylon by George S.

The appliance sitting in your kitchen is the result of 150 years of obsession, failure, and brilliance. And most people have never heard the real story.It starts in 1850 with a leaky wooden contraption patented by Joel Houghton, winds through dozens of competing inventors, and arrives at one remarkable woman — Josephine Cochrane, a debt-ridden widow in Illinois who declared: "If nobody else invents the dishwasher, I'll do it myself." She did. And she changed domestic life forever.In this episode, we trace the full innovation journey: why so many inventors swarmed around the same idea at the same time, how Josephine's 1886 patent became the "dominant design" that still defines modern machines, and what the dishwasher teaches us about how innovation really works — not as a lone-genius moment, but as a slow river of ideas gradually flowing together.Along the way: weapons engineers, soap chemists, a Great Depression, and the accidental chemistry discovery that finally unlocked the mass market.What you'll hear:The surprisingly long race from hand-cranked wooden box to kitchen stapleHow a socialite's broken china sparked a revolutionWhy electricity, hot water pipes, and synthetic detergent all had to arrive firstThe key innovation lesson hiding inside every dishwasher cycleYou can find a transcript here

This week, our guest is Jeff Hiller. The veteran comedian and actor is hardly a newcomer, but it's his recent role on the television series Somebody Somewhere that has finally brought him widespread recognition. In 2025, he earned an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for that performance. Hiller talks about the journey in his memoir, Actress of a Certain Age: My Twenty-Year Trail to Overnight Success.  Fans have appreciated his captivating and heartfelt humor for decades at stand-up shows; in theater performances including Bloody, Bloody Andrew Jackson, The Tempest, and most recently the 2025 revival of Urinetown; and on television series like 30 Rock, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, and Community.On May 8, 2026, Hiller came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco to talk to Poulomi Saha about comedy, friendship, and success.  Saha is an English professor and the Co-Director of the Program in Critical Theory at UC Berkeley.  The evening was co-presented with San Francisco Public Library and a supporting non-profit, Friends of the San Francisco Public Library.

You've seen the “I blew up overnight” story. I'm calling out what gets left out. In this episode, I talk about the myth of overnight success and why that idea keeps fooling people who are actually putting in real work. The thing is, most “overnight” wins are years in the making. We just meet the person at the loud part. I get personal here too. I share what it's looked like for me to keep building Nerdy's Umbrella, keep showing up, and keep adjusting when things don't click right away. From podcasting since 2018 to learning editing, sound, clips, and promotion on the fly, I'm pulling back the curtain on what steady effort really looks like. I also get into the part people don't talk about enough: what happens after the viral moment. Because if attention shows up tomorrow, would you even be ready for it? And if you're not, then what are you really chasing? If you've been feeling behind, frustrated, or a little played by online success culture, this one is for you. Listen through, then ask yourself what kind of success actually lasts. If this episode hit home, subscribe, watch the full conversation, and tell me in the comments: are we too obsessed with fast success and not enough with staying power?

Manager Jon has worked with TikTok, brokered KSI fights, built podcast studios, and managed some of the biggest creators on the internet.But that's only half of it, the version everyone sees.He's spent years grinding through YouTube channels through a difficult childhood. After one rough night with his dad, his mom tried to comfort him with, "It's okay, son. We were never made to get out."As he sat on the steps as a young man, Jon decided those words were a lie which he refused to accept.We talked through the full arc:→ How a high school video with 3 million views accidentally launched his career→ Why the barber shop failure was the moment he finally understood what he was building→ The King's Table framework for surrounding yourself with the right advisors→ How he found a blue ocean in the construction industry by solving a problem nobody else was addressing→ Why pricing too low actually harms your clientsSo many times, we look at personal and professional wins without knowing the failures and heartache it took to get there.Jon, thank you for coming back on.

Everybody wants the breakthrough. The revenue. The recognition. The moment where everything finally clicks. But what most people call “overnight success” is usually years of sacrifice, failure, discipline, and silent execution that nobody saw. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex exposes the illusion of overnight success and explains why chasing fast results can destroy your momentum before you ever reach your breakthrough. The truth is, success rarely happens as fast as it looks from the outside. People only notice the win once it becomes visible, but they miss the years of rejection, learning, rebuilding, and consistency that made that win possible. Paul breaks down why comparing your early chapter to someone else's highlight reel is one of the fastest ways to lose focus, and how to stay committed long enough for your work to compound. In this episode, you'll learn: Why overnight success is usually built through years of unseen work How comparison can make you quit before your breakthrough Why small daily wins matter more than massive short-term results How patience, discipline, and consistency create lasting success How to stay locked in when nobody is clapping yet Success is not about getting lucky. It is about showing up long enough for your effort to finally catch up with your vision. Because the people who win are not always the most talented. They are the ones who refuse to quit before the work pays off. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

In this episode, Tracy sits down with Ripley Rader, founder of the fast-growing apparel brand redefining modern women's fashion. Known for her chic yet comfortable designs, Ripley shares the truth behind her so-called "overnight success" — a journey built over more than a decade of persistence, sacrifice, and unwavering belief in her product. Episode Highlights How Ripley built her brand over 10+ years before seeing explosive growth Why being product-first gave her a long-term advantage in DTC The power of founder-led content and stepping in front of the camera How authentic storytelling transformed her business trajectory The reality of scaling: inventory challenges, cash flow, and forecasting mistakes Why she chose profitability over outside funding The importance of building a business aligned with your values and lifestyle Her perspective on relationships, support systems, and choosing your path The truth about burnout, stress, and maintaining health while scaling Why success requires embracing vulnerability and "doing it anyway"   Key Takeaways Ripley Rader's journey is a powerful reminder that real success is rarely overnight. By staying committed to her product, growing intentionally, and prioritizing authenticity over speed, she built a brand that deeply connects with women. Her story highlights the importance of trusting your instincts, embracing vulnerability, and playing the long game—because sustainable growth comes from clarity, consistency, and courage.   Connect with  Ripley Instagram: @ripleyrader Connect with Us Follow along and stay connected: Instagram: @PotentialtoPowerhouse Instagram: @Tracy_m_holland Instagram: @innerfifth Subscribe to our newsletter: https://potentialtopowerhouse.substack.com/ If this episode resonated with you, share it with a fellow founder or woman on her journey.

David Headley sits down with multi-award-winning crime author David Goodman to talk about A Reluctant Spy, the breakout thriller that launched the Goldsboro Crime Collective, and the years of writing that came before it.From Edinburgh to espionage, David shares how a lifelong love of sci-fi and spy fiction collided to create Jamie Tulloch and the brilliantly inventive “Legends Program.” They dive into writing under pressure (or avoiding it entirely), the reality of sudden success, and what happens when book two (and three!) are already in motion.Plus: the realities of publishing, blurbs, and why great stories aren't bound by genre.

Trey sits down with RSL assistant GM Tony Beltran to talk about the success of the academy-to-first-team pipeline at the club.Trey and Ryan also take a look back at the 3-1 win over SKC and shift focus to an increasingly hectic MLS schedule as we head closer to the World Cup break.

I see a lot of tension in the entrepreneurial space lately between the desire to build a career and the desperate urge to "blow," "hammer," or arrive at the pinnacle as quickly as possible. I recently had a conversation with a 24-year-old listener who really wants to hammer, and it reminded me that we need to talk about blowing up well and blowing up sure, rather than just blowing up quick. As Grant Cardone says, the goal isn't just to get rich quick, but to get rich for sure—to build wealth that no system or power can take away from you.If you focus only on the "quick," you are going to ignore the fundamentals and start taking shortcuts. Even if your business is legitimate, without a foundation, you will eventually crumble. To build something that lasts, you need to master these core areas: * Subject Matter Expertise: You don't have to be the smartest person in the room, but you must have a basic understanding of your trade. Whether you are importing spare parts or working as a consultant, fumbling due to lack of expertise costs serious money. * Client Acquisition and Retention: Learning how to pursue customers is a skill, but keeping them is where the business survives. If you bring in 100 clients a year and 80 of them "evaporate" because your retention is poor, you are bleeding and struggling needlessly. * Customer Lifetime Value (LTV): You have to maximize the value of the clients you keep. A single steady customer isn't just worth the profit of one sale; they are worth the steady stream of income they provide over years.I know some people say there is no such thing as overnight success, but that's not entirely true—it is possible. However, that "overnight" moment usually has a hidden foundation of years that people don't see. Think of "Star Boy" Wizkid; people saw him blow up, but they didn't see the decade he spent as a "studio rat" honing his craft. Look at Ebuka—everyone sees the "fine boy" hosting big shows now, but they didn't see the years of work and the time he spent studying entertainment law in Edinburgh to prepare for his moment.We all want to blow, and we will. But let's aim to be like Cosmas Maduka, whose name people have been calling since the 80s. The goal is to show up and stay there so that 20 or 30 years from now, people are still hailing you as the greatest of all time.If you want me to look into your specific business circumstances or if you're interested in a 15-minute sales or business audit, you can reach out to me via WhatsApp at 080 64662140.

In this episode, we're joined by Jens Levin, Founder & CEO of Sitoo, the retail SaaS platform powering in-store experiences for leading brands across the world. Today, Sitoo has 20M Euro in ARR, 40%+ growth, 300+ retailers, and deployments across 40+ countries. But this is not a story about overnight success. Jens shares the reality behind building a company over 22 years, including 10 years of work before finding the real breakthrough. It's a conversation about longevity, resilience, and why SaaS is not a sprint, but a long-distance team sport where focus and trust increase your chances of success. We spoke with Jens about what changed when Sitoo found its “Holy Grail,” why saying no became more important than saying yes, and how the company evolved from founder-led hustle into a scalable global SaaS business.  Here are some of the key questions we address: Why did it take 10 years for Sitoo to find true product-market fit? What changed when the company went all-in on one product and one focus area? Why does saying yes to everything keep you local, while focus helps you scale globally? How do you build a strong partner ecosystem without becoming a competitor? What happens when you scale from 3 people to 135+ employees? Why do so many SaaS companies hit a major shift around 80–100 employees? How do you move from founder-driven heroics to a scalable operating model? How do you keep motivation, culture, and momentum alive over two decades of building?

Lezlie Karls is currently the co-Founder and co-CEO of Mid-Day Squares. Her journey started 10 years ago. She's been swinging and missing for over a decade. She always loved taking an idea and making it come to life. She's been judged and misunderstood over and over.   She's designed for lady gaga, spent time on construction sites, and attempted to cook with the greats. All of which has led her to this moment now challenging all leaders to lead with vulnerability instead of fear.  Let us know if you enjoyed this episode!  Follow us on socials:  https://www.instagram.com/carinebadran/ https://www.instagram.com/taketheleadpodcast/ 

Everyone wants success fast… But the truth is, real success is built slowly—and revealed suddenly. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down the dangerous myth of overnight success and why believing it can sabotage your long-term growth. What you see online—the big wins, the revenue screenshots, the “blow-ups”—are usually the result of years of unseen work, failure, and consistency. But most people compare their beginning to someone else's peak… and quit before their own breakthrough ever happens. Paul explains how to reframe your timeline, stay focused on the next milestone, and build the patience required to create something that actually lasts. In this episode, you'll learn: Why “overnight success” is often the result of years of silent execution How comparing your journey to others can kill your momentum Why focusing on small, consistent wins leads to long-term breakthroughs How patience and persistence create sustainable, scalable success Success isn't about speed—it's about staying in the game long enough for it to compound. Because the people who win aren't the ones who get lucky… They're the ones who refuse to quit before it pays off. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Send a textMost of us assume that building a creative business takes years of groundwork before the work can speak for itself — but what happens when the work takes off before you've had time to figure out the business? Aaron Raymond of Redacted Ceramics went from renting a wheel for a week to running a full-time pottery business in under two years, and his story raises a quiet but important question: does the conventional wisdom about "paying your dues" actually hold up? As Aaron shares, a clear creative vision — one rooted in the Portuguese tile work he encountered while living abroad — combined with a willingness to use technology as a tool rather than a shortcut, allowed him to develop a style so distinctive that it found its audience almost before he was ready for it. The real lesson here may be that sustainability isn't about how long you've been at it, but about knowing your limits, protecting your hands, and resisting the pressure to scale past what the work can actually bear.Check out Aaron's work here: https://redactedceramics.com/Love this podcast?

Jason Noel, founder of Fat Fender Garage in Gilbert, Arizona, joins us this week with a story that's less about horsepower at the beginning — and more about perseverance. Jason didn't grow up chasing race cars. He was a finish carpenter by trade, building doors and crown molding before the 2008 housing collapse wiped out his business and forced a complete reset. What came next wasn't a hobby gone wild — it was a deliberate rebuild. One old truck led to another, then to customer builds, then to something much bigger than he ever planned. Today, Fat Fender Garage is a full-scale restoration shop specializing in classic Ford and Chevy trucks, known especially for early Ford F-100s and modern Coyote swaps. Along the way, Jason learned that if he wanted the quality and timelines his customers expected, he'd have to take control of the process. That meant bringing paint, upholstery, parts manufacturing, and now even chassis production in-house. What started as flipping a few trucks for fun has grown into a 75-person operation building high-end custom vehicles and engineered components designed to compete at the top of the industry. In this episode, Jason shares the hard lessons from early customer builds, the philosophy behind vertical integration, why he chose to compete directly with established chassis manufacturers, and how telling the real story — wins and failures alike — became the backbone of Fat Fender's marketing success. If you're into classic trucks, modern restomods, or the realities of scaling a business in the automotive aftermarket, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. The post TMCP #639: Jason Noel – Fat Fender Garage, The 20-Year Overnight Success first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Very inspirational episode. Dula and myself had the pleasure of interviewing a creative and motivated retired street pharmacist turned movie, Director, actor, and author. Luc Stephen is a Haitian born Jamaica Queens (by way of Boston) entrepreneur creative who has an amazing story. We talk about his beginnings in Boston, Massachusetts. Then moving to Jamaica Queens in High School. We talk about the stigma of Haitians in the early 90s as well as his transition from wanting to be a basketball player to falling into the streets in the early 80s. We then go into his transition from jail to becoming a fitness Coach to then getting bit by the Director bug & wanting to direct movies. Definitely a Man of many hats. Great story. Enjoy.

Everyone wants the shortcut. No one wants to hear the truth.In this episode of The Aspiring Solopreneur, filmmaker and media strategist Jake Isham delivers the reality most solopreneurs desperately need: you're not failing, you're just underestimating the volume it takes to succeed.From why real brands need thousands of reps, to how to think about content like the gym (without burning out), this conversation reframes success as a long-term, action-driven game. If you've ever felt behind, discouraged, or confused by “get rich quick” advice, this episode will reset your expectations in the best possible way.Episode FAQsHow much content do solopreneurs really need to be successful?Most solopreneurs dramatically underestimate the volume required to build trust, authority, and momentum. Success usually comes from hundreds (or thousands) of reps over time, not a handful of viral posts.Do solopreneurs really need to become a media company?Not at the beginning. Early on, solopreneurs should focus on one marketing channel that works. But to build a long-term brand, becoming a media company, gradually and sustainably, creates leverage, trust, and visibility.What's the best content strategy for solopreneurs with limited time?A sustainable strategy focuses on consistency over perfection. Start with one format you can maintain, treat content like a workout routine, improve form over time, and measure progress by actions taken, not short-term results.

If you've ever wondered why your “year 2” doesn't look like someone else's “year 15,” this episode is for you. Rider (TV narration, promo, and one of the most compelling keynote speakers you'll hear at a conference) breaks down the truth behind “overnight success” in voice over, what actually compounds over time, and why talent is only a small part of the equation. We get into the mindset and attitude side of the game most people ignore, how to stay hungry without burning out, and why you need a mission statement that can pull you forward when you're not feeling it. Also, yes… we talk barbecue. A lot. Listen now, then ask yourself: what are you going to DO with what you heard? PODBEAN — SHOW NOTES (bullets + links) In this episode with Rider, we cover: • Why “overnight success” is usually a 15-year build   • Talent is only part of the equation, what actually moves the needle   • Starting “the wrong way” (guest bathroom studios, janky gear) and still building a career   • Why rushing the process breaks people, and how patience becomes a strategy   • “You're auditioning for your own job”, staying hungry, staying humble   • The mindset piece most voice actors skip, confidence, courage, gratitude, and resilience   • The mission statement framework, goals vs mission, present tense, and why clarity matters   • What to do on days you're not feeling it, and how to reset your state   • The VO Life Coach app, what it is, who it's for, and how it works   • Rider's other show, Tri-Vio Pursuits (with Matt Baker + Mandy Fisher) CONNECT WITH RIDER

María Zardoya is the lead vocalist of the band The Marías, which broke through last year to become an indie pop phenomenon. With more than 35 million monthly listeners on Spotify, a viral song on TikTok and a Grammy nomination for best new artist, the band has gone from cult favourite to playing arenas all over the world. María joins Tom Power to talk about her journey in music, how a breakup led to a creative breakthrough, and what it's like striking out on her own with her debut solo album, Melt.

Hey, it's Dave Jackson here! In this episode, I'm diving letting you see why patience and persistence matter more than anything else in podcasting (and, honestly, in most creative pursuits). We've all been spoiled by the microwave mentality (wanting quick results and instant gratification) but the real success stories are built over years, not weeks.I kick things off with the story of the microwave's invention as a metaphor for how society craves instant results, then flip the script to talk about why that approach just doesn't work in podcasting.What Does it Take to Be Known?You'll hear me break down the journeys of big names like Morgan Freeman, Samuel L. Jackson, Harrison Ford, Bryan Cranston, Lucille Ball, and even musicians like Bonnie Raitt and Andrea Bocelli—all of whom pushed through years (sometimes decades) before their “big break.” Yes, even Adam Sandler and Jerry Seinfeld had plenty of failures, awkward moments, and years of grinding before the world knew their names. I share how their experiences relate directly to podcasting, and why embracing your own style and sticking with what you love can make all the difference.You Need To Be More Than "Good"I also talk about the importance of consistency, cross-promotion, knowing your audience, and making your content “remarkable”—the kind people just have to talk about. I share how Seinfeld didn't become a household name overnight, and how even my own podcast journey has been about slow, steady growth, not big, sudden leaps.Plus, I get into listener engagement strategies, word-of-mouth tactics, and why you should appreciate the connections and opportunities podcasting brings, from new friendships to dream gigs. And yes, you'll hear a little power rant about the NFL's approach to consistency (or lack thereof)!Because of My Podcast Lou MongelloFinally, I wrap up with plenty of listener “because of my podcast” stories, examples of how podcasting opens doors you never imagined, and a reminder that there's nothing stopping you from growing your show except your own willingness to put in the time and effort.If you want to get inspired and set the right expectations for your own podcast journey—or just need a reminder that you're not alone in the slow grind—this episode is for you.

Most “overnight successes” hide a decade of losses. Not luck. Not timing. Not shortcuts. They're built on failure, debt, and the decision to keep going when everyone stops.In this episode, Brandon Bornancin unpacks the unglamorous stretch behind Seamless AI—shutting down startups, watching a $12M business vanish overnight, and digging out of nearly $200K in debt. You'll learn the systems that turned chaos into compounding progress: how to set kill criteria, move fast on dead ideas, and rebuild with focus and discipline.Brandon reveals the mindset shifts that matter, the daily reps that stack results, and the packaging playbook that wins attention while your product catches up. Whether you're a founder, executive, or sales leader, these operating principles shorten the learning curve and extend your runway when things go sideways.

How do you turn a personal frustration into a $75 million brand—with no experience in the industry? In this episode of Leaders of Transformation, host Nicole Jansen interviews Justin Baer, founder of Collars & Co., who transformed a simple idea—a dress-collar polo shirt—into one of the fastest-growing luxury menswear brands in America.

If you fell in love with Jeff Hiller’s character Joel on Somebody, Somewhere (he was just nominated for his first Emmy for his performance!), you’ll want to pick up his new memoir, Actress of a Certain Age: My Twenty-Year Trail to Overnight Success. Jeff tells host Rachel Belle how he got his big break, his first role on a TV show at age 45 after 20 years of auditions, and why his childhood ambitions of becoming a pastor were dashed. Jeff loves eating in restaurants; he’d eat out every night if his husband would let him. So Tan Vinh, one of The Seattle Times’ food writers and critics, joins the show to talk about what it’s really like to eat at restaurants for a living. What does three dinners a night do to the body? What does Tan eat and drink on his days off? What does he do with the endless leftovers? Listen in to find out! Then Jeff Hiller shares two options for his last meal: one for the little angel perched on his shoulder and one for the little devil squatting on the other.
