Season 8 | Ep1 - Life After a Major Exit with Tom Glanfield: A Story of Success, Sacrifice, and What's Next

The RAG Podcast - Recruitment Agency Growth Podcast

Season 8 premiere!

In this episode, I’m bringing back one of the most talked-about guests we've ever had: Tom Glanfield, the founder of LHi Group (originally Lawrence Harvey).

Last time Tom was on, he shared his hilarious and inspiring growth journey and plans for exiting the business. Now, he’s back after successfully securing a massive exit!

We dive into

• what life looks like after selling his company
• how he’s spending his time
• managing his wealth
• and balancing his personal life.

Tom opens up about the highs and lows, from enjoying newfound freedom to reflecting on what he missed while building the business, especially as a father.

We also explore his health-focused lifestyle, his commitment to being more present for his family, and the wisdom he has for current and future recruitment founders.

Tom’s story is more than just about the numbers—it’s about creating a life that aligns with your values.

If you’re a recruitment leader, aspiring entrepreneur, or just curious about life post-exit, tune in for an episode full of inspiration, lessons on leadership, and a look behind the curtain of one of recruitment’s most successful founders.
