Episode 16: In conversation with Keiran Hewkin, Co-Founder of Swyft Home
The concept of a sofa in a box is so simple it’s genius – but the real genius lies in how you grow such a business from the ground up.
Keiran Hewkin is the CEO & Co-Founder of Swyft Home, a leader whose success is built upon the ability to embrace failure, break things, and bring a laser-focused vision to life.
Join us to explore how Keiran built a brand through bootstrapping, boldness, and brutal simplicity.
Getting told ‘No’ a thousand times made me think – it’s not a bad idea, but if people are saying no, then I’m going to have to do this myself.

To tune in, head here:
“If you can’t learn from your failures, then it’s going to take you a very long time to be successful, because you will have far more of them than you do successes.”
