Growth Led Podcast

In this episode I interview Jay Woodard. Our main topic was one of overcoming failure as an operator and entrepreneur, learning how to rebound, and ensuring we don't make the same mistakes again.
Jay's donut shop - Huckleberry donuts - in Ireland became so popular he had 400+ people waiting in lines around the block, and was selling out donuts within minutes.
This demand was so great that it prompted scale, only to be met with countless challenges.
Tune in to hear how Jay rebounded and is now building something great again.
Jay has now gone on to found a brand & storytelling agency: https://www.ad32agency.com/
