A few years ago I was a broke, university dropout, at 18 I built an industry leading social media marketing company, and at 27 I resigned as CEO. At 28 I co-founded Flight Story – a marketing and communications company, and thirdweb - a software platform, making it easy to build web3 applications. I then launched private equity fund, Flight Fund, to accelerate the next generation of European unicorns. During this time I decided to launch 'The Diary Of A CEO' podcast with the simple mission of providing an unfiltered journey into the remarkable stories and untold dimensions of the world’s most influential people, experts and thinkers. Thank you for listening.

    In this moment, world renowned coffee expert, James Hoffmann, tests and chooses the best high street coffee. James guides you though everything you need to know to assess coffee like a professional, this includes looking at the roast of the coffee, the smell and finally it’s taste and different tones.

    Moment 157: The Money Expert's Investment Strategy NO ONE Is Talking About: Morgan Housel

    Moment 157: The Money Expert's Investment Strategy NO ONE Is Talking About: Morgan Housel

    In this moment, financial expert and bestselling author, Morgan Housel discusses the hidden costs of everything in life. Morgan says that that anything good in life comes with an unseen price tag, and part of achieving success in any area of life requires putting up with unknowns and volatility. In a career this might be long hours away from your family, in a relationship it may be the sacrifices and compromises made for another person. Part of this is being aware of your time horizons in life, and the amount of time between now and your goal, determining whether you are willing to sacrifice precious time to achieve the goal. In the end, Morgan says that the key to success in life is identifying what the cost is for any decision and being willing to pay it.

What a shock

I’m in awe of Ronda Rousey!! For someone who’s come through a sport that is so confronting and tough she’s just amazing. So balanced, self aware, bright, positive and intelligent - she’s an inspiration. One of the best Podcast interviews I’ve ever listened to. I’m now a raving fan
Thank you for the privilege

YOU LOST ME AT ‘GLUTEN CAUSES AUTISM’

Steven, I used to love this podcast, but lately you’ve had a few too many pseudoscience peddlers on here and it’s getting difficult to trust the quality of guests.
