We took Simon Says on the road and met founders turning ideas into momentum — right in front of a live audience.

Episode 9 — Small audience, big leap

This week on Simon Says, five very different dreams share the same heartbeat: start before you feel ready.

• Daniel Sheehan — Travel creator
  He doesn’t have a million followers. He has a map and a point to prove. We swap “waiting to be discovered” for a simple promise: bring places to life so well that brands want to be part of the story.

• Sav — Smile Shield
  A dad with an idea to help families actually brush, not just mean to. We turn good intentions into a movement you can feel — the kind that makes a kid proud to show their grin.

• William Matthews — Oyster Holiday Cottages
  A small team on a windy coast trying to build something that feels like home. We talk about hospitality as love: welcome notes, off-season memories, and leaving a place better than you found it.

  IG: Oyster Holiday Cottages

  
  

• Declan Natras — From the Army to founder
  Standing on the edge of civilian life with a head full of ideas. We talk about courage in quieter forms: buying back your time, making your first £1k, and choosing the long road on purpose.

  
  

• Lily (14) — Future sports broadcaster
  A teenager with a voice that belongs at the match. We sketch the first steps of a dream most adults are too shy to say out loud — and promise to check back soon.

In this episode of Simon Says, Simon Squibb helps four callers turn raw intent into real plans — from wildlife photography to wellness retreats.

• Hiran , @hiranmano— NYC technologist with a wildlife-photography dream. We scrap the “non-profit” label, set a $4,000/month client target in 6 months, and map revenue paths: paid shoots (zoos/NGOs/brands), print sales, a photo book, and gear sponsorships.

• Philip Gidding — Electrician launching a pie-and-mash shop with a pay-it-forward model. We design a zero-budget launch: niche first (serve trades), film taste-test reactions at wholesalers, partner for in-store sampling, and use content to drive preorders.

• Allegra Melloul, @a1legra — Paris-based creative torn between film, teaching, and service. We focus the mission: make the Divine Comedy film trilogy in Italy, fund impact work (orphans) via profit, and keep a small content-services roster for runway.

• Janine Hanlon, @janinehanlonlivingwell — Building affordable women’s wellness retreats. We kill limiting beliefs, expand beyond IG to TikTok/YouTube, and execute a revenue-share weekend pilot with an existing venue, then use profits to underwrite free places.
