34 years old … living back with my parents … broke … sharing a car that cost £400 with my business partner and earning less than that a month. In this episode I dig into the 5 years of failure that led to The Natural Edge.

Brilliant video chaps. As someone who has had a company for 2 decades now, I can totally relate to the struggles of those early days with similar stories, such as looking in the fridge and staring at a couple of bits of semi-moldy cheese thinking that this sucks. You have definitely hit the nail on the head by simplifying things as I think it clearly shows your "Why". I found over the years that people engage with businesses in a 3 stage process; "What", as in what service or goods you offer, "How", how you offer, supply, or construct that, and then "Why". Why are you doing this, what is your motivation and can they (the consumer/client) buy in or align with that. I think the "Why" is the make-or-break bit, it's not just a USP thing, it's about the true passion that can be communicated. So you have to ask very clearly yourself the same question, "Why am I/we doing this?" and if as you quite rightly say the leading answer is money/cash, then motivation becomes lacking in tough times. The passion within the videos you are producing is clearly visible and comes across in a very natural way (no pun intended), and is certainly directly relatable to the fact that you have truly asked yourselves "why are we doing this, what is our true belief and passion". It engages that limbic gut decision part of the brain, which to me says yes this is the real deal, I can trust these guys as my bull sh*t filter is not being turned on. This a bit of a diatribe from myself, I know, but in short thanks for the videos as I really am enjoying them as consistently developing and engaging a military mindset continually helps me to develop and grow in life and business. Per ardua ad astra.

Inspirational, I have just left the military in July and so far it's been a journey, to be honest, I can relate. It's hard not to just give in and get a normal job 😆. This truly test how much you believe in what you're doing. Proud of you both for seeing it through. Unbreakable.

Great video... watching them all and it helps bring the brand to life... Watching the videos and pushing myself to do something uncomfortable... So now every day I now to 3.00min ice cold shower ( skin goes red ) then 20x20x20 press ups ,sit ups and squats. Plus I send a text to a friend to be accountable... I did start at 30's then a min seemed a long time. I find knowing I need to check in I have done this helps give me that little nudge to turn to cold and nail the three mins

Can relate to this. I'll always remember bayonet training at Catterick in December, being crawled through an icy river and snow 😂 but these days, in my thirties it feels much harder just having a dip in the loch during summer
