Episode 63 "Pool Side Entrepreneurship with Omar Mo"

Throughout our lives, we’ll find ourselves leaning on someone for guidance, advice, and support. It starts from our early years, where we initially depend on our parents and teachers to indoctrinate us to the ways of the world until we become full-fledged adults capable of making responsible choices, growing our net worth, and expanding our network. One thing I’ve come to realize is that while we will never really stop learning, we’ll also reach a point where we would also want to share the wisdom we’ve acquired throughout the years with others to help them in their own journey. For this reason, I got together with my fellow entrepreneur Omar Mo, the host of the podcast The Nomadic Executive and CEO of Nomads Cast, to talk about anything under the sun about entrepreneurship and the value of mentorship by the poolside. 

In this episode, Omar and I dive right in about how mentorship has impacted our lives. We bounce off the qualities you should look for in a mentor for guaranteed success. Then, we get into detail about my upcoming mentorship program and why I decided to create it. Finally, Omar and I also share book recommendations that we know will give you tons of value and potentially even change your life! This poolside conversation will definitely give you a refreshing perspective towards entrepreneurship and mentorship!
