Awesome Podcast for Aspiring Entrepreneurs! How I Built This by Guy Raz.

So I’m just a little bit obsessed right now with a podcast that is all about startups.

How I Built This is an American podcast about "innovators, entrepreneurs, idealists, and the stories behind the movements they built" produced by NPR. The series gives you a huge variety of founders to listen to, and great insight into what it takes to build a business from scratch.

Guy Raz is a brilliant interviewer, has a low-key really listenable style, and gets some of the biggest global names in startup behind the mic to casually chat through how they took their businesses from the seed of an idea to billion-dollar enterprises that have gone on to scale across the planet.

It’s relatable, insightful, human stuff - and comes from a place of entertainment and storytelling rather than business and corporate speak up front in your grill.

It’s well worth a scroll through the backlog of episodes to see who you might just learn from as you listen in to their Founder story. Get up close and personal with the founders of DropBox, Stripe, Barre2, Rent The Runway, Urban Decay, Cisco, Bobbi Brown, We Work, Angie’s LIst and stacks more. Check it out here.

Awesome brain food for when you’re in transit, walking, sitting in the sun …. so much good stuff. GWx

HOLLY RANSOM - COFFEE POD CONVERSATIONS YOU NEED TO HEAR!

So lately we’re loving these awesome, eminently listenable Coffee Pod conversations between Holly Ransom and a super-star studded lineup of world-shaping guests who are changing the world for good! You’ll learn lots of stuff about the world, how to shape it, and how you can start right now.

You can listen and download here.

It’s not surprising these conversations are so jam-packed with good stuff given Holly is a star in her own right, and it’s kinda hard to know where to start with her long list of amazing achievements…..

What we do know is there is no stopping her, and that’s really excellent news for the planet :)

We need powerful world shapers and thought leaders like Holly right now to show us, and the girls of the world, the way forward and a new paradigm of leadership in complex times.

Holly is CEO of Emergent which works with global companies like Microsoft, Virgin, KPMG and governments globally, she brilliantly interviewed Barack Obama recently, works with Virgin force Sir Richard Branson who named her as a “dream dinner guest” and Wired Magazine’s ‘Smart List’ of future game changers to watch, was appointed by the Australian PM to Chair the G20 Youth Summit, is Director (youngest woman ever) of Port Adelaide FC, is Co-Chair of the United Nations Coalition of Young Women Entrepreneurs, is a global keynote speaker (delivered a Peace Charter to the Dalai Lama), and competes in Ironman Endurance Triathlons.

SHALL WE STOP? LET’S HOPE HOLLY DOESN’T.

Girls need to see what powerful young women like Holly Ransom are capable of, so they can step into their own potential and shape their own pathways.

Holly joined us to tell her extraordinary story at the girledworld W🌏W Summit 2018 at RMIT University this year.
