About This Podcast

I look for exciting people doing unique things, often being entrepreneurs and people with startup experience. Instead of just talking about 'what' they do, I want to bring out the 'why' behind what it is they do. Live every week on LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter @showmedamani.
