Listen Later

Vince Meens has lived through the full spectrum of entrepreneurship— founding & building successful companies, experiencing exits, and facing the pain of failure & bankruptcy. As well as personal challenges, ultimately landing him in a coma & even facing death. Doctors told his family he wouldn’t make it.

But Vince did survive. And more importantly, he rebuilt. Over the course of three years, he persistently fought his way back—relearning how to eat, walk, and live again. In this powerful episode, Vince shares what it means to start over from absolutely nothing, how his coma dreams shaped his outlook, and why in business we must not forget about the human side/cost of ambition.

This is a raw and inspiring story of resilience—a reminder that no matter how deep you fall, you can always rise again. In business and in life, rebuilding is always possible!
