Through her personal experiences and professional insights, she now empowers others through coaching, mentoring and her innovative RADIATE model – a framework for self-reflection, acceptance, and sustainable change.

This episode, I speak with Simon Squibb, founder of HelpBnk and author of What's Your Dream? We dive into cultivating luck (hint: it's not random), why desperation can be a creative superpower, and how his mother kicking him out of the house became the very thing that made him. Simon shares his raw take on privilege, failure, and the myth of the A-grade life. We talk resilience, drive, and what it means to burn the boats and go all in—even if you don't know how to hold a garden spade. You'll leave this one fired up. Maybe even rethinking your whole idea of risk.

Simon Squibb is not your average entrepreneur. After tragedy saw him leave home at the age 15, Simon went into survival mode - he started a gardening business with no actual experience or knowledge of the industry. 19 businesses later, Simon is a multimillionaire. He's since taken to social media to ask people about their dreams via TikTok and he's founded the ‘Elevator of Dreams' concept alongside Richard Branson. He's used his insight to craft a new book - What's Your Dream? Find Your Passion. Love Your Work. Build a Richer Life. "I was forced to be an entrepreneur - it wasn't really my path at that moment in my life, I'd never thought about becoming an entrepreneur, no one had ever taught me at school what an entrepreneur was or how to create something in your mind and make it real. I was just like everybody else...but this entrepreneur muscle woke up in my brain." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Beyond aesthetics, hair has the power to transform lives, instill confidence, and create connections that foster empowerment and belonging. This is a different type of episode - this time I'm the one answering the questions. Join me and Simon Squibbs as we delve into the notion that purpose is not always an immediate revelation; rather, it's a beautiful evolution that requires patience and self-discovery.

Join us for an engaging and thought-provoking conversation that challenges conventional perceptions and highlights the profound role of purpose in every aspect of our lives.
Simon Squibb has spent 10 years as an entrepreneur in the UK and 20 years as an entrepreneur in Hong Kong. He started his first company when he was homeless at 15 years old, and he sold his last company Fluid to PwC. He has also invested in over 70 startups in the last 15 years. Today Simon is the founder of the worlds first Help2Earn system, a platform that helps people learn how to start and scale a business for free while those that help get paid. Simon's mission is to help 10 million people start a business of their own, and fix the education system. Simon joins Steven to talk about how he created the life-changing exit that enabled him to lead his empowering mission to help others, why purpose matters, and how he channeled the pains of his past into a mission that is slowly but surely changing the world for the better. KEY TAKEAWAYS Life is a journey, and journeys all contain highs and lows. Simon is an example of how you can fight back from the depths of failure to the heights of success. If you leverage pain in a positive way, then there is no limit to the potential you can achieve. If you don't have painful experiences, then you can't call yourself experienced enough to help others. The greatest entrepreneurs are the ones who recognise optimism as the best fuel in life. There are no such things as downturns if you remain positive - a challenging time for some is always an opportunity for the greatest thinkers. Instead of moaning about why you can't achieve success, you should instead be asking the question "What problem can I solve?" BEST MOMENTS 'I should never have to worry about having an income again, which now gives me the chance to do what I want to do' 'Bad luck can have a good luck element to it' 'You've got to be an optimist to be a success' 'The bigger the test the more opportunity' VALUABLE RESOURCES The Steven Sulley Study Simon Squibb - https://simonsquibb.com ABOUT THE HOST The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships. As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life. My 'Study' coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.

The second of an epic two part conversation with Simon Squibb, the multi-millionaire on a mission to change the world. Despite selling his business for more money than he could spend in his lifetime, Simon is hell-bent on giving it all away. He passionately believes we all have the entrepreneurial spirit within us and wants to encourage as many people as possible to break free from the shackles of the matrix to take control of their financial destiny. Simon uses his viral social media accounts to reach millions of people every week to spread a message of positivity and hope through the possibilities of entrepreneurship without any of the fluff. In his own direct manner, Simon is not scared to speak his truth as he warns people away from the next get-rich-quick scheme and explains why he thinks a lot of the advice given is hugely damaging, especially around leveraging debt. He's a man with a big heart and an even bigger mission; enjoy! KEY TAKEAWAYS The present education system is completely broken and doesn't give people the tools they need in order to exist in the world of today. We're still adhering to an archaic programme of what people needed generations ago. Sometimes the best way of unlocking the entrepreneurial spirit inside us, is to harness the skills of another entrepreneur. Combining forces can be the key to unlocking our own power. Business masterminds are born for two reasons - either the circumstances demand that they do something in order to survive, or they find their true purpose and make it happen. We're conditioned to believe that in order to get through life, we simply have to memorise facts and slot into our pigeon hole in society. It takes an entrepreneurial spirit to see outside of these limitations and achieve true freedom. BEST MOMENTS 'People freak out a little bit when you talk about change' 'A tool to live in the real world is how to manage money' 'The questions isn't "Are they an entrepreneur?". The question should be "What kind of entrepreneur are they?"' 'People come out of school thinking that cave life is better than being out in the wild. Being out in the wild is living!'

Fast forward to today, and life looks very different. Ellie committed to turning her life around for herself and her family. Following this commitment, she got to work and has now built multiple successful companies, as well as having created a multimillion-pound property portfolio from a standing start. Ellie is now on a mission to make a positive impact and add value to others through her podcast which has attracted phenomenal guests worldwide.

To celebrate our second anniversary, we have an extra special episode with Simon Squibb, the multi-millionaire on a mission to change the world. Despite selling his business for more money than he could spend in his lifetime, Simon is hell-bent on giving it all away. He passionately believes we all have the entrepreneurial spirit within us and wants to encourage as many people as possible to break free from the shackles of the matrix to take control of their financial destiny. Simon uses his viral social media accounts to reach millions of people every week to spread a message of positivity and hope through the possibilities of entrepreneurship without any of the fluff. In his own direct manner, Simon is not scared to speak his truth as he warns people away from the next get-rich-quick scheme and explains why he thinks a lot of the advice given is hugely damaging, especially around leveraging debt. He's a man with a big heart and an even bigger mission; enjoy! KEY TAKEAWAYS No matter how far we fall in life, there are always things to be thankful for. Life itself is a gift, and so long as you have determination, you can pull yourself out of any situation. Authenticity counts for far more in the world than the manipulation that some believe is the road to success. People are drawn to kindness and instinctually feel the need to be kind in return. Faking it till you make it is definitely a worthwhile strategy at the outset of your career, but you have to be authentic enough to follow through on your promises. There needs to be some kind of benefit system in order to help the most vulnerable in society, but we need to make sure that the help doesn't encourage people to never try to make it on their own. And the system should never penalise those who do want to try to do better for themselves. BEST MOMENTS 'They shouldn't ask what you want to be when you grow up. They should ask which problem do you want to solve?' 'When the sun comes up and you're hungry, it becomes fight of flight' 'You can fake it till you make it if you intend to follow through' 'A lot of people are penalised for wanting to do something!'

Unicorn Podcast Trailer by Simon Squibb
Simon is a serial entrepreneur and seasoned content creator including a successful YouTube channel and the Podcast PEP Talk: The Purposeful Project. In this episode, Kane and Simon discuss what it takes to get started with your podcast, how to create great content over and over again and what really counts when it comes to building a podcast, a business and a brand. Simon also talks about his passion behind helping others build their own businesses and learning how to transform their lives. KEY TAKEAWAYS Simon started a digital agency which he recently sold. He always had the philosophy that he was not the front or the face of the company and this then aided him in being able to sell it with its own strong business brand intact. He believes there is too much emphasis on personal brand at the moment and not enough focus on the business brand. When Covid hit, Simon decided to start creating content that would be useful for other people, to help and aid them in starting their own business and creating their own wealth. This is what led him to create his podcast. Simon learnt about entrepreneurship out of necessity, it was difficult and he learnt everything the hard way. This is what drives him to want to help everyone no matter who they are. When Simon created his podcast, he never thought about whether it would be viral or get ‘big' he just focused on the content and whether that was providing value for the listeners. Reputation goes a long way, this alongside building a successful working network is how Simon continues to get great guests on his podcast. Spotify is really starting to put the work in to become a more dominant platform in the podcasting world. They are consistently coming up with innovative concepts and features to try and get ahead of Apple. Entrepreneur House is Simon's concept to have entrepreneurs come and stay as a package whilst they start their business; you learn, stay and build your business all under one roof. He has one property now but feels like it is very valuable and scalable as a concept. Many people suffer from imposter syndrome but Simon says you can use these feelings for strength. You can take that energy and leverage it to prove you are who you say you are, creating energy to deliver what you want to do. Simon likes to consume his own content in a variety of ways but surprisingly not that often through podcasting. His main aim when consuming content is to learn something, it doesn't matter to him what format that takes.

Simon joins Rob in this episode where they talk about whether free content, information and services are better than paid. Simon believes free has more value but Rob disagrees. Listen in to find out why! KEY TAKEAWAYS Many businesses have been built on something ‘free' such as Facebook and Instagram. But Rob quite rightly points out that someone always has to pay for free, using FB as the example, it wasn't free to create and now it's users are advertised to. Rob believes that you value things that you pay for. When you are given things for free you don't value it in the same way. If you are going to do something for free then you need to ensure it has good value. A large chunk of society just cannot afford things. Free has a value for those who can't afford to pay. Simon argues that podcasting provides a wealth of knowledge with breadth that not many other platforms can rival. Yet it's free. His core belief and argument is that there are many things we can provide to people for free that have a higher value to society than if we charged for them.
