Can I Laugh On Your Shoulder?


Mar 7, 2018

What if you had the next, world-changing, business idea? Your business could change the trajectory of someone’s life or impact the way people interact or have an impact on the environment or give people access to clean drinking water or create urban farming and give people more access to affordable, real food? But, the reality for you is, you don’t have the resources to implement the idea. Maybe it’s the money, or the support, or the technology… you know the idea is gold, and you know you can do it, but you just don’t have what you need to actually get it done. What if there was someone, or even a GROUP of people, who would come alongside you to help you change the world?

My guest this week is Kate Goodall, the co-founder and CEO of Halcyon House, one of the worlds premier and honestly, most unique business incubator I’ve ever come across. What they are doing to cultivate entrepreneurs from around the world in the social good space is AMAZING. And, if you’ve ever wondered what diving in shipwrecks and running a business have in common, then you’re going to LOVE this episode.
