In this episode of Simon Says, Simon Squibb helps four callers turn raw intent into real plans — from wildlife photography to wellness retreats.

• Hiran , @hiranmano— NYC technologist with a wildlife-photography dream. We scrap the “non-profit” label, set a $4,000/month client target in 6 months, and map revenue paths: paid shoots (zoos/NGOs/brands), print sales, a photo book, and gear sponsorships.

• Philip Gidding — Electrician launching a pie-and-mash shop with a pay-it-forward model. We design a zero-budget launch: niche first (serve trades), film taste-test reactions at wholesalers, partner for in-store sampling, and use content to drive preorders.

• Allegra Melloul, @a1legra — Paris-based creative torn between film, teaching, and service. We focus the mission: make the Divine Comedy film trilogy in Italy, fund impact work (orphans) via profit, and keep a small content-services roster for runway.

• Janine Hanlon,  @janinehanlonlivingwell — Building affordable women’s wellness retreats. We kill limiting beliefs, expand beyond IG to TikTok/YouTube, and execute a revenue-share weekend pilot with an existing venue, then use profits to underwrite free places.

In this episode, Simon Squibb speaks with four young dreamers who are already challenging the system:

• George Pemberton (16) — wants to launch a hybrid athlete coaching business with his brother. We design a hook (“Get fit for free”) and debate whether he should pursue A-Levels or take a gap year to go all-in. (@nobs.club • @exalt_ekene)

• Francesca O’Sullivan — shares her raw story of losing her son and feeling lost after redundancy. In a 2-minute challenge, we explore how pain can become purpose, and how her writing could grow into a community. (@frankiesaturn)

• Harrison Nott (15) — already turned over £100K with his invention CoolTowel™. We unpack how to balance scaling a product business with building a personal brand that inspires millions. (@harrisonnott)

• Pijus Pranckus (18) — building a “Siri for business” to transform how companies train staff. We drill into clarity, focus, and how to pitch without losing people in the detail. (@jpcustomsie)

• Julia Hammond (18) — launching Haya, a modest fashion brand redefining style and accessibility. We map out low-cost launch strategies, from TikTok to “modest marketing” campaigns. (@hayacollectionca)
