Parents Who Think

From Homeless Teen to Entrepreneur with Simon Squibb


Listen Later

This episode, I speak with Simon Squibb, founder of HelpBnk and author of What’s Your Dream? We dive into cultivating luck (hint: it’s not random), why desperation can be a creative superpower, and how his mother kicking him out of the house became the very thing that made him.

Simon shares his raw take on privilege, failure, and the myth of the A-grade life. We talk resilience, drive, and what it means to burn the boats and go all in—even if you don’t know how to hold a garden spade.

You’ll leave this one fired up. Maybe even rethinking your whole idea of risk.
