"I printed out the Manifesto and kept it with me in my interview (tucked away in the folder), it kept reminding me that I had the power to do this and it is my time to change into the person I’m meant to be. I can’t thank you enough!!!! "

Hi, Thanks so much for this podcast. This story is truly inspiring. It shows how you can come up with an idea and create a product that is unique and that you are sure will sell (everybody loves ice cream). It’s great also to hear how you get around problems by just saying: “ok - well, we’ll just do it a different way”. That’s really interesting and inspiring. I own my own baking company and it’s not doing too well and I have lost all my passion for it. I think it’s going down the tubes but I have to say that listening to all your podcasts has shown me that I can keep going or I can just create a new product and try and get a new thing going. Thanks!
I am fresh out of university and I have a degree and all that, but I am just not motivated to get a job like my parents want. I want to do what I want to do - and that is to set up my own business. My parents are concerned that I am going to be living with them for the next 10 years if I don’t get a job at the local supermarket… but the thing is I don’t just want a job, I want a career and they just don’t get it. Reading this has just dug home the fact that my two lovely parents are average people and they don’t understand what it is to want to be awesome. Thanks for showing me that I can be different and still be successful!
