Podcast Overview

Mentor Business Podcast explores real-world business decisions entrepreneurs are rarely prepared for. Hosted by Dr Lewis Haydon, business owner across multiple ventures and Founder of MentorBusiness.com, the podcast examines where business theory breaks down in practice — leadership under pressure, ownership decisions, scaling a business, and board-level judgement. Recorded within the university and real entrepreneur ecosystem, these are not advice-led episodes. They document lived experience so the next generation of entrepreneurs gain earlier access to judgement usually learned too late.
