Visionary with Dipesh Virji

You can start a business with almost nothing, reach millions of people from your phone, and build a life around something you genuinely care about.

In this episode, Simon shares exactly what he would do if he lost his wealth, audience and influence tomorrow and had to start again from zero.

From becoming homeless at 15 and knocking on doors for customers, to selling his business for millions and building an audience of millions, Simon explains why he believes there has never been a better time to create something of your own.

We talk about why the traditional school system can kill creativity, why your environment shapes what you believe is possible, how to monetise something you love, and why providing genuine value is the foundation of building an audience and making money online.

Simon also shares his philosophy on ethical selling, homeschooling, taking risks, building the right team and why one of the biggest mistakes you can make is reaching the end of your life wondering what might have happened if you had tried.If you’ve been sitting on an idea, questioning whether you have enough money, experience or followers to begin, this conversation might change the way you see what’s possible.

In this episode:

• How Simon would rebuild from £0

• Why your smartphone gives you unprecedented leverage

• Why school can crush creativity and entrepreneurship

• How to turn something you love into income

• Why your environment determines what feels possible

• How to grow and monetise an audience by providing value

• Why authentic selling beats manipulation

• Simon’s approach to homeschooling

• Why your children copy what you do, not what you say

• Taking risks, building teams and living without regret

Enjoy the episode!
