Episode 0 - Introduction

Hello everyone and welcome to the introductory episode to Young Ambition, a podcast were we talk to some of the most inspiring industry and community leaders available to our generation. I’m your host, Ivan Briones. Young Ambition was created through the belief that every young person has the potential to achieve whatever goal they give themselves, no matter how daring or ambitious. However, we also believe that a bit of direction and advice from professionals and community leaders can make a world of a difference for a student. In this podcast we intend on bringing in new guests every week to share their knowledge and experiences from their life as a student to their transition into their current professional work settings. Through these discussions, we hope to give young people opportunities to learn from a leader, professional, or educator and apply that knowledge in their own lives, wether that means continuing to pursue their career with more confidence or even discovering a new direction they would like to take. Ultimately, this podcast is a way of empowering young people with the knowledge necessary to gain confidence in their own choices to build the life they want to lead. In this way, we can inspire each other to create a community of excited young students looking to take the world by storm. With the right perseverance and determination, there is no dream too ambitious.
