Building a financial services business from nothing. That's exactly what Brad Ainsworth did, starting with three months' money and one client. Now Cathedral Wealth Management looks after around a thousand clients. In this episode of Talk FS, Ryan Venner sits down with Brad Ainsworth, founder of Cathedral Wealth, to talk about how he backed himself to build a business from nothing, the health challenges he has overcome along the way, and the lived experiences that shaped his approach to leadership, client care and purpose.
You'll learn:
✅ How Brad worked his way from a bank commission desk into financial services
✅ Why the client who changed everything, Jean, inspired him to start Cathedral Wealth
✅ How he has built the business while living with sight loss, ADHD and tumour diagnoses
✅ Why meeting Stephen Sutton and the "86,400 seconds" philosophy reshaped his outlook
✅ How Springboard to Business came from a desire to give back
✅ What it takes to build a team and culture rooted in trust
This is Talk FS, the podcast for professionals in or entering the financial services industry.
