Welcome to episode 54 of the Today is the Day Changemakers Podcast.
This week I am excited to share conversations I had with entrepreneurs from around the world. A new episode each day from Monday December 13 to Friday December 17 will air as my guests will share their journey to entrepreneurship.
Being an entrepreneur takes tenacity, determination, motivation, and the ability to keep going even when it may seem like there are many hurdles to jump over. If you have a fire in your belly to do something that is calling to you, then listen in to hear how these entrepreneurs made their way.
On Tuesday December 14, Christine Skaar joins me as my guest. Christine is Founder, KVIST Interior Designs and KVIST Boutique. Follow on Instagram and Facebook
Christine is a Norwegian interior designer and experienced Architect. She founded KVIST in 2015 from her dining room table in Plymouth (England) by answering a Facebook request. Now in her sixth year as an entrepreneur she has reimagined her business to be the company she didn’t know she wanted!
Christine works with creative professionals and independent business owners to design and deliver their dream projects, enjoyably.
Trained at internationally renowned Wilkinson Eyre Architects and Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios where Christine worked on public and higher education building schemes before joining more intimate design offices. She has delivered architectural and interiors appointments for the award-winning Gaia Spa at Boringdon Hall Hotel, creative recording complexes for TEN87 Studios and The Qube in London, as well as domestic projects across England.
Listen in to hear the answer to 'if you knew then, what you know now' from each one of my guests.
Entrepreneurship is not for everyone. For those with a calling for it though, these stories will serve as inspiration to take steps towards reaching their entrepreneurial goals. Hearing others talk about bringing a concept, idea, dream to fruition can provide all of us with some motivation to take one step, small or large, forward toward our goals.
On December 22, my guest will be Fred Wasiak, President & CEO of The Food Bank of South Jersey. From hearing how Fred found himself leading the team at the Food Bank of South Jersey, to hearing how he helps to keep his team connected and motivated as a front line organization. Fred shares so much more about his journey. There is one specific story that you will not want to miss listening to. It has to do with Fred and his daughter, Meg walking in graduation together for their Master Degrees. You will have to listen in to fully understand, but bring the tissues.
