Failure Is the Game: Igor Vainshtein on Resilience, Redefining Success & Entrepreneurpoly | Ep. 172

Guest: Igor Vainshtein, EO Melbourne since 2021, Keynote Speaker & Inventor of Entrepreneurpoly Host: Linh Podetti, EO Sydney Member since 2022 and Owner of Outsourcing Angel In this deeply honest and thought-provoking episode, Igor Vainshtein shares his extraordinary entrepreneurial journey, one shaped not by overnight success but by repeated failure, resilience, and reinvention. Having started over 20 businesses and failed 18 of them, Igor opens up about losing everything multiple times, hitting rock bottom, and the mindset shifts that ultimately changed how he defines success, in business and in life. From growing up as an immigrant with nothing, to building and exiting companies, to inventing Entrepreneurpoly, a board game that simulates the real emotional and financial rollercoaster of entrepreneurship, this conversation is packed with hard-earned wisdom. Igor shares insights on: Why failure is a critical ingredient for success How obsession with money and outcomes nearly cost him everything The moment he redefined success beyond financial wins Practical vs. “wishful” manifestation, and what actually works Building resilience as an entrepreneur and as a human Why entrepreneurship is a game of inputs, not outcomes Lessons from scaling, collapsing, rebuilding, and exiting businesses How Entrepreneurpoly teaches real-world decision-making, risk, and resilience This episode is a must-listen for founders, operators, and leaders who want a more grounded, sustainable, and meaningful definition of success.
