Designing Success on Your Own Terms

In Episode 1, we spoke to Doug Richardson about 50 years in business and how leadership has evolved over decades.In Episode 2, we shift the lens completely.This time, I’m joined by Mollie Huckerby — a founder in her twenties who built an app, raised £1M in investment… and then made the brave decision to walk away and start again.Not because she failed.But because she realised success, on paper, wasn’t aligned with the life she wanted to live. We talk about:• Choosing a degree and the pressure to pick the “right” path• The reality of high-performance corporate environments• Burnout and health as wake-up calls• Raising investment in your twenties• Redesigning life and career with more intention• Freedom, ambition and what they really mean If you’re at university…If you’re in your first job wondering whether this is “it”…If you’re building something and questioning what success should feel like… This conversation is for you. Because perhaps a truly great business isn’t just about scale or valuation.Perhaps it’s about alignment. Courage. And building something that supports your life — not the other way around. Thanks for listening to The Great Business Podcast.
