Summary

This week Stuart and Ben chat about the importance of reflection and how reflecting on the lows can really help us see how far we've come, rather than how far we fell. Both lost businesses, within months of each other and it dramatically changed their live - initially for the worse and now for the better.

This coupled with the guys regular babble about their business and personal lives, as well as Ben's usual Dad Joke!
