This episode started with a simple question and ended in tears.
If you could have the last ten years of your life back, knowing what you know now, or take one million pounds today, which would you choose?
What followed was an honest reflection on identity, grief, ambition, family, and the quiet cost of chasing the wrong things for too long. This is not a motivational episode. It is a personal reckoning with the man I was, the man I became, and the man I am choosing to be next.
In this episode, I share the decisions I would make differently if I could start again, and the lessons I am carrying forward into the next decade of my life.
In this episode, we explore:
Why more money does not always mean more safety or peace
The house I left behind and what it represented emotionally
Why starting therapy earlier would have changed everything
How ambition can slowly strip your identity without you noticing
The cost of prioritising business over presence
The moments with children that matter more than achievements
Why comparison quietly poisons contentment
What I hope the version of me in ten years feels proud of
This is an episode about honesty.
About grief that has been buried too long.
About choosing meaning over noise.
And about deciding how you want the next ten years to feel.
If this lands, take the question with you.
Be honest with yourself.
And do not wait another decade to listen.
