    Was super exciting to see the first episode of 30&Thriving. It’s great to see a fresh approach to interviews of young high achievers. Love the first episode and of course, the accents 😀

Billion Dollar Founder: The 9 Steps That Built My $5.6B Business - Sir Richard Harpin
Q: What would you tell your younger self starting out in business?
Be a hedgehog: pursue a focused core idea, hire a replacement when ready, and avoid chasing too many new ventures; simplify, prove the model, and gradually scale with locals in new markets.
Billion Dollar Founder: The 9 Steps That Built My $5.6B Business - Sir Richard Harpin
Q: Why did you decide to sell HomeServe for 4.1 billion pounds, and how did the process unfold?
The board believed that the offer at 12 pounds per share fairly valued the company given its potential, and after extensive due diligence and regulator clearances, the sale proceeded, delivering security for shareholders and fueling Richard's new mission with Growth Partner.
Billion Dollar Founder: The 9 Steps That Built My $5.6B Business - Sir Richard Harpin
Q: Which skills do you think are the most important ones for people to learn if they want to become great entrepreneurs?
Focus on what you intrinsically enjoy and are good at, gain experience in structured corporate environments to learn discipline, and then apply those skills to build and scale your own business.
Cambridge Grief Doctor: 6 Things You Must Do To Heal From Grief And Loss | Dr Chloe Paidoussis
Q: How can listeners balance supporting others who are grieving without taking on their pain?
Be present with their emotions without trying to fix them. Use cognitive, emotional, and compassionate empathy: acknowledge the loss, mirror or share the emotional state, and stay with them for as long as needed. Naming the deceased and allowing conversations about them helps normalize grief and deepens bonds.
Cambridge Grief Doctor: 6 Things You Must Do To Heal From Grief And Loss | Dr Chloe Paidoussis
Q: What should someone do in the first 48 hours after a loss?
In the immediate period, the brain is reorganizing reality, and conscious coping is limited. Practical steps include acknowledging the loss, allowing the emotions to travel, sitting with loved ones, and starting basic rituals. It's important to validate feelings and begin slow, grounding actions like breathing and gentle movement to stabilize the nervous system.
