Also, there are so many new listeners that would love for you to know more about me and how I started my business.

Truthful & Insightful

This podcast gives you the raw uncut truth of what life as an entrepreneur really is. Shan even states in the first episode how this is not be taken as a ‘Motivational talk’ & nor is it going to make you rich.

As a budding entrepreneur myself I find it very relatable whereas other entrepreneurs as big as Shan tend to brush over the gritty details of an entrepreneur he goes into detail of everything, from his journey after leaving accounting to now securing 11million in investment.

I look forward to the future episodes & the invaluable advice I will take from it & hopefully me & Shans paths can cross in business sometime.

Real(ly) good

You can make what you want of what Shan has achieved but what stands out about this podcast and his videos is how honest and real he is in a very hard and practical way. There’s no one else that comes to mind that gives advice as practical and perspectives and deep and insightful into business and particularly the marketing industry. A very inspirational guy, you’ll hear the reality of the business world even if it isn’t what might be the most “sellable” or attractive reality to hear.

One of the best podcasts for entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs

It’s not often that I write out reviews for podcasts but this is nothing short of spectacular - Shan’s insights into the realities of entrepreneurship in a time where fake gurus glamourise the idea that entrepreneurship is all about working 4 hours a week and having freedom is massively appreciated
