Listen "Andrew Steele - Calculated Risks, Lasting Value"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Andrew Steele, former Team GB Olympic bronze medallist, shares his journey from the traumatic experiences of missing the home games of London 2012 to an unexpected leap in entrepreneurship. He offers an inside line into a journey beyond sport and talks on reinvention, resilience and carving a unique path to entrepreneurial success. Andrew speaks about his incredible story, the celebrations and challenges of competing for Team GB and how a single audacious email launched him as the co-founder of DNA Fit, a successful DNA testing company. He discusses the pressure and purpose of leading the Premier Leagues COVID testing programme to now building his own health optimisation company – Stride. With the belief that societal health will improve from the bottom up, Andrew explains how Stride will offer in-house health tests, tailored interventions and expert support to tackle chronic diseases at a consumer level. From having no work experience or higher education, to currently bridging the gap between free and private healthcare, this conversation explores the ‘permission to try’, the resilience that is not often learned and the opportunities that arise navigating unexpected detours.
