Description

Ever wondered what it is really like to build a business from zero and make it profitable? 

In this episode, John Fearon looks back on his journey from early internet ventures to running international schools, sharing the moments that pushed him, the tough calls he had to make, and the mindset that carried him through years of uncertainty. He talks about bank balances that swung dramatically, the discipline he learned even after major exits, and how his idea of meaningful spending shifted as life and priorities changed.

He also breaks down why profitability brings a different kind of stability, how he thinks about risk taking today, and what younger listeners should consider when choosing the industries and opportunities they want to grow in.

A grounded and relatable episode for anyone curious about money, resilience, and the long game of building a career that actually feels worthwhile.
