Sterling’s Business Success & Coffee Podcast
Real Conversations. Real Businesses. Real Results.
Welcome to Sterling’s Business Success & Coffee Podcast — practical business conversations over a virtual coffee with Simon Meadows, business coach, entrepreneur, and founder of Sterling Coaching.

This podcast is for business owners, entrepreneurs, and business coaches who want to build stronger, more profitable businesses without losing sight of what matters most.

Each episode is designed to feel like sitting down for a coffee and talking honestly about business — the wins, the struggles, and the lessons learned from real-world experience.

Simon brings over two decades of business and coaching experience to conversations focused on:
• Growing a profitable business (not just a bigger one)
• Creating predictable lead flow
• Building long-term client relationships
• Improving cash flow and financial clarity
• Making better business decisions
• Developing the mindset of successful business owners
• Scaling without burning out
• Working smarter for profit, not just revenue
• Building a business that supports your life

Expect a mix of:
• Practical solo episodes with clear business lessons
• Monday Moment–style reflections and insights
• Real-life business stories and case studies
• Coaching insights you can apply immediately
• Conversations with business owners and experts
• Simple frameworks that work in the real world

This is not theory-driven business advice.

It’s real-world business coaching, shared in a practical and relatable way.

Whether you're growing your first £100k business or scaling beyond multiple six or seven figures, you'll find ideas here you can apply straight away.

If you like practical business thinking over a good coffee, you’re in the right place.

New episodes released regularly.
