Daniel Priestley, one of the UK’s top entrepreneurs and founder of seven successful businesses, reveals the harsh truth about what it takes to build a scalable empire in today’s AI-driven economy. During our conversation, Daniel opened up about a Christmas Eve health scare that forced him to confront his mortality and completely restructure his priorities, sharing the vulnerable moment when his doctor gave him the news. His philosophy on entrepreneurship challenges everything you think you know about business success – from his military-inspired team scaling model to his controversial belief that less money is actually greedier than wanting more. This episode will transform how you think about wealth, health, and the dying economy versus the new digital age we’re entering.
