Do you have a really cool idea for a business? What's stopping you from giving it a shot? Starting a business and becoming an entrepreneur while you're young is an incredible opportunity. A rare time in our lives when you can give stuff a go while you have the flexibility and room to fail fast and learn. "It's ok to fail, take what you've learned and try again. Because failing while you're young is the best time to do it." -Cheryl Royle, Entrepreneurship Facilitator at Hunter Futurepreneurs. Hosted by Adam Spencer, the Youngpreneur Podcast shares the experiences of other young people just like you, who took a shot and built incredible businesses. Maybe they aren't millionaires yet, but entrepreneurship isn't just about startups, scaleups, seed rounds and big exits. It's about learning new skills that you can't learn anywhere else, it's about creating an opportunity for yourself and it's about having a go and taking control of your future. The Youngpreneur Podcast is brought to you by Hunter Futurepreneurs. The Hunter Futurepreneurs program has been designed to inspire, educate, mentor and connect future entrepreneurs to start or build a sustainable business.

Erin studied Exercise and Sports Science at University and after finishing her degree Erin didn't want to take the obvious career route and instead wanted to share her passion with those who were looking to make a positive change in their lives.'At the end of my Exercise Science degree, I was just like, "Nope." And I was like, "This isn't what I wanted to do. This isn't where I want to go." I had a little crisis. And then I found this job working for Vision Personal Training in Gladesville.' -Erin WilsonErin became a personal trainer and with a lot of hard work she was making a difference, but her passion began to turn into a grind and the numbers game of getting bums on seats, not being able to focus on achieving a quality outcome for her clients was beginning to take a toll. After needing to step away for a while, Erin returned and started her own gym, Urban Base Fitness, at 25 years old. Taking everything she had learnt she was able to build the right environment and focus on the outcomes that her clients wanted.
