Our guest today is Ben Keene who is an adventurer, community builder, coach and a confident reader. This makes perfect sense as he's the founder of the incredible Rebel Book Club community, which helps people accelerate their reading habits, learning, and connections. There are over 1000 members who meet online to discuss books which I'm sure most of them have read.
Ben's career is fascinating and it began with Tribe Wanted a crowdfunded sustainable-tourism village on an island in Fiji (which was turned into as a 5 part BBC series and book). This idea led him to Sierra Leone, and Umbria before he ended up back in London helping people make career changes.
We talk about how to develop a great reading habit, the power of community, lessons he learnt from Polynesian culture and much else besides. You'll love it.
