Description

Alex Packham knows what it’s like to have everything change in a single day, and nothing changes at all. From selling ContentCal to Adobe from his spare bedroom in the middle of lockdown to waking up the next morning wondering who he was without the business, Alex’s journey blends adrenaline highs with the quieter, harder work of rebuilding identity.


In this episode, he opens up about the reality of sudden wealth, the role of luck in big wins, and why mental health matters just as much as the deal itself. Alex shares the behind-the-scenes strategies that helped a small team “punch above their weight,” the lessons he’s bringing from Silicon Valley back to the UK, and how letting go of ego has reshaped his approach to life and work.


It’s a candid look at ambition, adaptation, and what happens after you’ve reached the milestone you spent years chasing.
