In this episode of Beyond the Business Card, we dive into the incredible journey of Fares Ksebati, founder of MySwimPro, the app that revolutionised swim training around the world.
From burning out physically and mentally to taking a massive leap of faith, Fares shares what it really took to leave his job, pour everything into an unproven idea, and reshape an entire industry. At the time, there was no real training platform for swimmers, and he knew he was the right person to build it.
This is a story of obsession, sacrifice, and relentless belief. With no revenue, no real traction, and little financial cushion, Fares kept going. Not because it was easy, but because the alternative wasn’t an option.
We talk about:
-Building through burnout
-Quitting a stable job for a risky dream
-The emotional highs and lows of entrepreneurship
-Why swimming will always be central to his life
If you’re an aspiring founder or someone on the edge of a bold idea, this episode is packed with truth, passion, and the real cost of building something meaningful.
