'How I Got Here': a podcast about success stories
17
0
The How I Got Here podcast was born from an observation I had, that people believed success to look a certain type of way. That to be successful you would dress a certain way, have a certain title, work for a company with x amount of employees and have a traditionally vocational career where you had to jump through the hoops of studies, internships and job placements. Meanwhile, we look around us and we know and meet success stories every single day that are nothing to do with the conventional ideas of success. They are the ones who take risks and go against what people advise, they build businesses and empires out of passion and creativity. They take entrepreneurship to a whole new level and they have some damn good stories to tell about how they got to the top. They are my inspiration for this podcast, I want to hear about the challenges and difficulties they faced, but I also want to hear how against all odds, they got there.
