This episode is my unfiltered take on what really happens when a founder chooses formal education over pure experience.

I break down why I sold my Land Rover to fund my MBA, what the degree genuinely gave me that real-world experience hadn’t — and where structured learning can quietly work against founders if you’re not paying attention.

This isn’t about credentials or status. It’s about confidence, instinct, risk, and how education can both sharpen and dull the very traits founders rely on most.

What’s inside

• Why I chose an MBA over keeping the car I built and loved
• What formal business education gave me that experience alone didn’t
• How an MBA changes the way you think — for better and for worse
• The hidden danger of over-analysing as a founder
• Why speed, intuition, and discomfort still matter more than frameworks

Who this is for
Founders and operators who are weighing education against experience — or questioning whether they’re already thinking too much and acting too little.

If you’re considering further study, or wondering whether experience alone is enough, this episode will help you slow down, zoom out, and make a clearer decision before committing your time, money, and energy.
