Nic Taylor, founder of 47 Skin, shares his truly unbelievable origin story, one that starts not in a lab or a boardroom, but with his grandma Pat.
In this episode, Nic shares the full journey from the moment his grandma discovered the now‑famous compound by complete chance, to Nic realising its potential, to the wild early days of trying to build a business around something that almost never existed.
Joel and Ben dig into the science behind the discovery, the emotional family connection at the heart of the brand, the hurdles of turning an accidental breakthrough into a real product, and the surreal moment Nic realised he might actually be onto something big.
