While our society likes to hero the start-up culture, glorify budding romance and offer congratulations on new jobs, nobody is talking about rebuilding their old company, their failing relationship, or damaged reputation with quite the same enthusiasm and reverence.

With upcoming guests including Jason Gonsalves, Charlie Webster, Faris Yacob, Chris Atkins, Sophie Devonshire, Lucy Rocca, Marc Webster, and Lydia Amoah, now’s the perfect time to press ‘subscribe’. Our background is in media and marketing and we have been working together for three years as part of the C Suite of one of London's leading creative agencies. We joined as part of a turnaround team and it was on this journey that we became fascinated by stories of rebuilding in all areas of life.
