Episode 8: Walt Disney’s First Studio Went Bankrupt. And That Was Just the Beginning.
The true 7/8 story behind one of the world’s most iconic dreamers.
Before Disneyland, before Mickey, and before the empire—Walt Disney’s first animation studio went bankrupt.
This episode uncovers the real 7/8 story behind one of the most iconic creators of all time. It’s not just about what Disney built—but how he responded when everything he built was taken from him.
We dive into the early fall of Laugh-O-Gram Studios, what nearly broke him, and why his ability to rise became more influential than any castle he ever dreamed up.
This is the beginning of our ongoing series spotlighting real stories of visionary leaders who fell—and then got back up stronger.

It doesn’t always have to be a rags to riches story….. funny because I think a lot of us believe those people that went from rags to riches are then entitled to that success. So it feels out of reach for other people if they haven’t had a tragic or rags to riches story. I definitely used to believe that! Thank you for your perspective on that. The mundane stories are just as good and successful.
