Send us a text Confronting our deepest fears takes tremendous courage, especially when those fears are tied to financial security and self-worth. In this raw and unfiltered episode, Mark Fitzgerald pulls back the curtain on his personal journey from corporate burnout to property entrepreneurship, revealing the doubts and anxieties that nearly held him back from changing his life. After 16 years climbing the corporate ladder, Mark found himself trapped in the all-too-familiar hamster wheel—dreading each workday, feeling emotionally numb, and seeing no clear path forward. "I wasn"t really feeling like I had proper feelings anymore," he confesses. "I even paraglided off a very big mountain in Turkey because I wanted to feel scared." This powerful moment of clarity forced him to confront a difficult truth: something had to change. With remarkable candor, Mark discusses the terrifying leap of taking voluntary redundancy, the kitchen table moments of despair wondering if success would ever come, and the persistent voice of self-doubt that whispered he might fail. Yet through consistent action, building the right support network, and refusing to give up, he successfully established thriving businesses in HMOs, serviced accommodation, and holiday lets. What makes this episode particularly valuable is Mark"s insistence that his success isn"t due to special talent or privilege. "I"m nothing special," he emphasizes. "You"ve just got to know what you"re doing. Do the right things in the right order, consistently and persistently." He debunks the myth of overnight success and offers practical wisdom on creating momentum in your property journey.
