85. John Whelan: Being charged with fraud forced me to build a business
What would you do if everything you’d worked for suddenly came crashing down?
For John Whelan, life took an unexpected turn when he found himself in a courtroom facing a charge of fraud. After years toiling within accountancy firms and factories, the life he had built for himself and his family was thrown into uncertainty. But instead of letting adversity define him, he found a way forward.
John’s story is one of resilience and reinvention.
