About Fail Forward

Failure is only negative if you don't learn from it Fail Forward is the weekly podcast hosted by entrepreneur and family man Henri Ghijben. In each episode you'll hear from Henri and guests as they share real-life experiences of positives born from failure, reflections on the lessons learned from 'losing it all, and what fuels Henri's desire to help others overcome personal and business challenges in order to create the lives they want to live. Who is Henri Ghijben? Growing up in Bury St Edmunds, Henri's first memorable experience of failure left him with the lasting ability to never get lost. It proved to be the first of many times Henri would fail forward. But it wasn't until he faced losing his home, business and possibly even his family, that he realised the truth. Failure is only negative if you don't learn from it. Against the odds, Henri has rebuilt from rock bottom. He's now on a mission to help others avoid making the same mistakes he did, to help those facing failure see that there is a way back and that by failing forward they can enjoy success again. Ever thankful for the love and support of his family, the loyalty of his team and the help of business owners who helped him when the chips were down, Henri now lives in Southampton where he runs HRG Tree Surgeons, has growing property management and investment businesses and runs mentoring programmes for business owners, entrepreneurs and directors who are on their own growth journeys.

Published 18 Jun 2024 · Transcript excerpt

[…] We're going to be interviewing key people in the industry. I'm going to be traveling abroad to see how the industry's done in other countries. And ultimately, the whole point of the podcast is to get people to understand that our tree surgery industry is so important. It's so aligned with the environment and what we do. And doing tree surgery well can have great effects on trees and managing trees properly. But doing it poorly will have a detrimental effect to our trees, to our environment.
