At 21, Theo had his whole life mapped out – until one tackle in the last 20 minutes of the season changed everything. His knee swelled up, his contract wasn't renewed, and suddenly he was out of professional football with zero backup plan.

In this podcast episode, Theo shares exactly how he rebuilt from that rock-bottom moment, and eventually co-founded René House, a Nottingham-based social housing company that now turns over seven figures and employs 20 people.
He gets real about what it's like to run a business with your partner, those sleepless nights when payroll is due and the bank account is looking thin, and why everyone wants the freedom of entrepreneurship but nobody talks about things like midnight phone calls from the police...

What we cover:
• How to start again when you have no backup plan
• Why testing different jobs was the best form of business education
• The truth about running a £7M social housing company
• Building a business with your partner
• His new coaching program that helps other athletes transition to business
"Everything is hard. Social media sells you the dream that entrepreneurship fixes all problems, but it's just pros and cons to everything."

So if you're facing a major career or life pivot at the moment, thinking about starting your own business, or just need to hear from someone who's been through the worst and came out the other side, this episode definitely delivers!
