One of the UK’s most sought-after leadership coaches; a best-selling author; an organisational psychologist; a business founder; a former accountant; a former restaurateur – Anurag Rai’s career experience is remarkable. What’s even more remarkable, is the story of how he achieved all of this after losing everything.

In this inspiring episode, Anurag explains how he started out with £100 and a dream of owning a restaurant business – a dream he accomplished, until bad luck struck. Finding himself at rock bottom and asking, “Why me?”, Anurag faced a choice: give up, or shift perspective. So he decided to change his question to, “Why not me?” – and rebuild.

Driven by his mission to positively impact one billion lives, Anurag has spent years developing his expertise in psychology, leadership, and high performance. His conversation with our hosts explores the mindset behind resilience, the power of reframing failure, the importance of human connection in leadership, and what it really takes to lead well.

Whether you're leading a team or leading yourself through change, this is a story – and a conversation – you won't want to miss.
