Description

We’re hacking the system of entrepreneurial success so that you can learn faster, get paid what you’re worth, and negotiate better. Each episode is focused on delivering the small changes and profound nuggets of knowledge that can have a huge impact on your future. Our show is about leveling the information playing field to give you the confidence you need to get promoted, launch a business, and tackle life’s big decisions. Don’t listen because someone told you to, listen because the long, slow climb up the corporate ladder is fine for other people, it’s just not for you.
