“Cheers, it’s a privilege to be here.” Laurence McCahill’s response to my appreciation for the interview, but really, it’s his life philosophy. From his early days as a designer and agency co-owner to becoming the co-founder of The Happy Startup School, his vibe is curious, seeking, and available. And that’s not even getting into his colorful origin story!

Join us for a non-GMO chat that gets to the humanity of it all. In this heartfelt episode, we explore growing up in the pubs of London, connecting with nature to access your creative mojo, and leveling the playfield (to include with ourselves) so everyone has a seat at the table.

This is an episode rich with stories about playing music, world travel, the influence of cultural diversity, and a dance with death that forever changed his perspective on life. Our banter is a meaningful glimpse of Laurence’s humanity long before his agency and Happy Startup days. Join us for the bard’s tale of a proper Irish Bohemian with hints of Nick Cave. A man who loves deeply, most of all his family. A true visionary who, along with his business partner, Dr. Carlos Saba, went on to build the wildly successful Happy Startup School.

What I most cherish when sitting down with people for a long chat are the things they’ve learned along the way. That’s where the gold is, and Mr. McCahill has plenty to offer. One story had me close to tears, which I’ll let the episode tell. It involved lifting a person up, both emotionally and physically. Lucky for us, that moment was captured by the stunning photograph below, shot by Becky Rui.

So, grab a lovely cup of tea and sink into your favorite nook for this soul-led conversation free of gurus. Just two dudes hanging out and talking about the texture, moments, trials, and magic that is the creative life.

Aloha, I’m Bobby Ford!
