A podcast about vulnerability and entrepreneurship β learn from the life stories of founders π, activists β, and even drug lords π Our aim is to inspire you and let's face it... you aren't inspired when you hear about success. Real inspiration comes from hearing someone's lowest moment, and rising with their success. Using music, sfx, and voiceover, we interview the founders of companies, movements, and even drug cartels to reveal vulnerability so you can learn from victory. Iβm your host, Samuel Donner, and together with my team we aim to inspire and educate a global community of leaders.
