Description

In this episode, Lewis and Sophie dive deep into the lessons they’ve learned from their trading journeys and the things they’d do differently if they could start over.

They both agree on one big takeaway: start sooner.


Whether it’s trading, investing, or personal growth, time is your biggest advantage, especially when you understand the power of compounding. Sophie shares how she wishes she’d invested in herself earlier, from mentorships to masterminds and how paying to learn made her more committed to doing the work.

Lewis echoes this, revealing how taking out a credit card to fund his first mentorship completely changed his life.. but also why, in hindsight, he’d have stayed in his job longer to build his trading capital and reduce pressure while learning.


They discuss how mindset and habit play a bigger role than most people realise, and how consistent small deposits, even £10 at a time, can build wealth faster than people expect. Lewis highlights the importance of the three C’s of the STARTrading method — confidence, consistency, and competency and how mastering these creates the foundation for long-term success.


The episode closes with an honest reflection:

“Every successful trader I know wishes they’d started sooner.

Time will pass either way — you might as well use it to build freedom.”


And, of course, a little light-hearted snack review to end things on a laugh.
