In this episode, I sit down with Steven Bartlett – the youngest-ever investor on Dragons’ Den, founder of The Social Chain, and one of the UK’s most influential entrepreneurs. Steven’s story isn’t your typical success tale. He dropped out of school with nothing and built a multi-million-pound empire by going against the grain.
This conversation isn’t something you hear every day. Getting one of the UK’s most talked-about entrepreneurs to sit on the other side of the mic is rare – and in this interview, Steven gets real. He talks about the struggles, the tough decisions, and the mindset that’s led him to where he is now.
We don’t hold back. Steven opens up about what it really takes to succeed, why he doesn’t buy into conventional success, and why he’s more interested in growth and impact than chasing fame or external validation.
This isn’t just another business chat – it’s a deep dive into what it means to break the rules, embrace failure, and keep pushing for something greater. Whether you’re in business or just figuring it out, Steven’s perspective will make you rethink what success really looks like.
Tune in for a rare opportunity to hear from one of the most influential voices in the UK, and get an insight into the journey you won’t find anywhere else.
