#111: When Success Becomes Your Prison with Jean-Marc Barbeau - Qualified Chartered Accountant and NLP Master Coach, Better Business Freedom

What if the very habits that made you successful are now the biggest things holding you back?In this episode of The Agricoach Wealth & Wisdom Podcast, Ben sits down with Jean-Marc Barbeau, turnaround strategist and founder of Better Business Freedom. Jean-Marc shares his journey from climbing the corporate ladder in London to redefining what true success and freedom mean — and why too many business owners (and farming families) fall into the trap of working harder instead of working smarter.Together, Ben and Jean-Marc tackle the “frog in boiling water” problem, the danger of being trapped by past success, and the waiting-for-later myth that robs families of joy in the present. You’ll hear stories that bring these lessons to life — from the “Waterboy” who stopped carrying buckets to build a pipeline, to families wrestling with how to let go of control across generations.If you’ve ever wondered how to avoid burnout, create real freedom, and lead your family or business into a stronger future, this conversation will give you practical perspective and a challenge to rethink what prosperity really means. f you’re the kind of family that leads from the front, not waits for a crisis, the 2026 Roadmap Workshops are for you.
