Entrepreneurs Journey was a radio show which ran for three seasons from March 2020 to November 2022. Each program explored key points on the Entrepreneurs Journey from concept to successful startup. In each program we hear from an established and successful entrepreneur about their particular journey. We also have a guest who is a specialist in the topic at hand, plus we spotlight some featured startups.
To mark the end of season three of the progam, we take a look back at just a few of the many highlights that co-hosts John Burkett and Sharyn Doolan have had the pleasure of bringing to you. It was really hard to select extracts from 29 programs and some 53 hours of talking to such a superb line up of guests. But we eventually managed to get it down to just 14 pearls of wisdom covering a range of topics and issues that arise on the Entrepreneurial Journey.
