Want to know more about our Founding Director Brad?

Here’s his no nonsense story from start up to wealth management success

Thanks to The Business End for this podcast.

🎙 THE BUSINESS END | EPISODE 47 | BRAD AINSWORTH | LIVE 🎧

He was a successful financial advisors working in the UK banking sector. Then one conversation changed everything.

The awards were coming in. His career was progressing. By every conventional measure, Brad Ainsworth was succeeding.

But something wasn't right.

Was he genuinely helping people, or simply selling them products?

Then he met Jean Smith.

Recently widowed, Jean didn't need another financial product.

She needed someone she could trust.

That conversation changed everything.

In 2013, with two young children, three months of financial breathing room and just one client, Brad walked away from banking to establish Cathedral Wealth Management Ltd.

Today, the business serves clients across the UK and has earned national recognition.

But this episode isn't simply about business success.

It's about the courage to challenge convention, the consequences of difficult decisions and the responsibility that comes with leadership.

Brad joins The Business End for a remarkably candid conversation exploring:

🔹 Walking away from security to follow your principles.

🔹 Why trust and relationships outperform transactions.

🔹 The painful lessons of growing too quickly.

🔹 Building teams that thrive under pressure.

🔹 The human side of leadership, resilience and responsibility.

🔹 Why community and giving back matter in business.

There are laughs, uncomfortable truths and moments of genuine vulnerability.

And one powerful lesson:

You can build a business by winning transactions. But you build something that lasts by earning trust.

A huge thank you to Brad for his honesty, generosity and continued support of The Business End through Cathedral Wealth Management.
