Ep 9, Will Bax - Dom talks to real estate expert Will Bax
On episode 9 we talk to Will Bax, a guy who got to the top of the London property world, and then gave it all up! We find out how he got there, and why he’s now decided to take a step back. We also talk about some seemingly trivial events in Will’s life that have shaped how he views success and failure. Will also tells us a heart-breaking story of how a skiing trip went tragically wrong when he saw his friends swept off a mountain by an avalanche, and how this fundamentally changed the way he views his life. It’s a very moving chat where we cover some big topics – hope you enjoy, please share if you do!
