The Grant Owen Podcast

Success is the hook, not the topic. And we want to see why the people we respect are the way they are.

On The Grant Owen Podcast, the host sits down with the world's most resilient people to uncover the stories you've never heard. These aren't tactical business interviews. They are raw, unfiltered conversations about overcoming tragedy, the philosophies that forge unbreakable character, and the true "why" that drives extraordinary people to do impossible things.

This is a podcast about the human spirit.

Sam Parr has built multiple 8 figure companies. I asked him how.
In this episode, Sam Parr breaks down the real path from $0 to $100M—no guru BS, just the lessons he learned building and selling The Hustle. We're covering the 5 levels of business building: what actually matters at each stage, the mistakes that trap you, and why most of what you think about growth is wrong.
You'll hear about the decisions Sam made (and regrets) scaling from writing emails to an 8-figure exit, why hiring the wrong people can turn your business into a prison, how to know when it's time to sell, and the one philosophy that saved him: most business decisions are reversible. This is about building a business you actually want to own.
