EP 163: From Living In A Garage To A $25M Business

from The ToolShed Podcast · host Mick Hawes

What does it really take to build a successful business when there are no guarantees? In this episode, Mick sits down with Mark Deacon to unpack the often unseen side of growth resilience, uncertainty, discipline, and the long stretches where effort comes long before reward. This is not a story about overnight success or shortcuts. It's a practical conversation about staying in the game when outcomes aren't guaranteed, and why that mindset matters deeply for builders and business owners navigating pressure, risk, and responsibility.
