Joel Stone is the founder of marketing agency Codebreak, co-founder of Andy & Joel’s Growth Academy, author of the Amazon bestseller Stay Hungry, and host of the Stay Hungry podcast.

Raised in rural Shropshire, Joel’s early life was shaped by his father’s severe bipolar disorder. He went on to achieve a first-class degree in Graphic Design, graduating into the 2008 recession before taking an unexpected path into accountancy.

In this conversation, Joel speaks openly about his childhood, his own experiences with anxiety and clinical depression, and how these have influenced both his personal life and his approach to business.

This is a candid discussion about mental health, resilience and building something meaningful alongside it.
