Five days away from his routine changed everything.
Fishing
Fishing taught him patience and pattern-recognition.
The Mountain
The mountain gave him the clarity to see his company's future.
The Firelight
The firelight revealed he wasn't alone in his struggles.
"That's where I finally saw the business I wanted to build — and the life I wanted with it." — Jonathan Reid
The Outcome
Within 18 months, Jonathan's business hit £4.1 million in revenue.
But the real transformation wasn't the numbers — it was the shift in how he led.
"I didn't need another consultant. I needed space to think. PowerUp gave me that — and everything changed."
