In this episode of Momentum Meets, Alistair Body sits down with Ben Fielding, founder of Graphene Insurance, to explore what sustainable growth really looks like in today’s broking landscape.

After nearly two decades in underwriting, Ben made the bold decision to step away and build his own brokerage from scratch, without a book of clients and without the traditional safety net. What followed wasn’t overnight success, but a disciplined, deliberate approach to growth rooted in consistency, smart positioning, and a clear understanding of where value is created.

Hear how Ben has built a profitable, scalable business by focusing on e-trade efficiency, predictable cash flow, and strong introducer relationships. It’s a model that challenges conventional thinking, proving that growth doesn’t have to come at the expense of time, energy, or wellbeing.

This conversation goes beyond strategy. It offers a candid look at the realities of starting out, the importance of knowing your strengths, and how to design a business that works for your life, not the other way around.
