070 Interview: Nick James

Welcome to this episode of the Fail Forward podcast.   If you’ve been listening to the Fail Forward podcast for a while, you’ll have heard me talk about my mentor, Nick James. Now, it’s time to hear from him first hand.    In this episode, Nick shares his business experiences - the highs and the lows, plus gives you a whistle-stop tour of his somewhat unusual introduction to the world of personal development.     “Reaching the top you discover it isn’t the top. It’s just a series of levels.”   Nick’s first experience of the world of personal development happened before he was even a teenager. Having spent his formative years travelling the world and following an untraditional educational path, Nick set up his first business as soon as he left university. After all, he’d studied business so what could possibly go wrong?   When he failed, he quickly realised it was time to find a way to learn the kind of business knowledge you just don’t get from university and set about immersing himself once more in the world of business and personal development.    Fast forward to today and Nick shares his insights from a wealth of experience and knowledge gained through his successes, failures and steep learning curves whilst sharing the sage advice that; “entrepreneurship is a summitless mountain”.   In just under an hour you’ll hear real life stories of success, failure, ego and energy. Plus the ONE question every entrepreneur should answer.   If you enjoy listening to Nick you can follow him on Instagram @Nickjamesevents or find out about Expert Empires by visiting https://www.expertempires.com/   If you’re enjoying the Fail Forward podcasts, follow me on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok or LinkedIn for all the latest on my mission to help business owners Fail Forward.    Facebook https://www.facebook.com/failforwardhenri LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/henri-ghijben-539132101/ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@failforward12 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/henrighijben/
