ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
16 rounds of IVF.
Eight years.
And one text message that changed everything.
Lisa Messenger is the founder of Collective Hub, the entrepreneurial brand she built from nothing in 2013, and one of the most fearless disruptors in business I know. She's written 40 books, shared the stage with Sir Richard Branson, and built something print insiders said was already dead into a brand distributed across 37 countries in eighteen months.
But before we got into any of that, I wanted her motherhood story first. The 16 rounds. The excruciating two week waits. And the moment, completely run down after round 16, she texted her best friend Sarah asking if she'd still be her surrogate. Sarah's reply gave her full body shivers. It still does.
We get into that whole journey, the heartbreak before the joy, what it actually means to reinvent a business more times than most people reinvent their wardrobe, and why she walked away from 36 staff to build a life with none.
This episode left me speechless more than once. I think it'll do the same for you.
