Courageous Conversations: How Jonny Warren turned adversity into his greatest teacher

September 22, 2023


Today, Jonny is able to turn his past struggles into relentless motivation and unmatched empathy for his team and business prospects, to build their success as much as his own.


In this episode of the Courageous Conversations podcast with Leanne Pilkington, Jonny Warren challenges the notion that one’s past struggles are weaknesses to be hidden, asserting that they are, in fact, sources of strength.


He also discusses how he goes above and beyond to help clients facing tough times, why he lets his team take five days off every six weeks, and the best way to develop a culture of work-life balance while still scaling your agency.


“For a lot of agents, it’s all about money, money, money. With us, it’s about helping our clients first. And if you do right by people, then you’ll be rewarded for the efforts and what we did behind the scenes for our clients.” – Jonny Warren.
