Hannah McQueen: The ”Grim” Reality of Ageing in New Zealand

On this episode, I talk to Hannah McQueen, a powerhouse Kiwi entrepreneur.

S

he built then sold a company called EnableMe and with it helped thousands of families get control of their finances

Now she’s starting all over again- this time in elderly heathcare with a company called “Brightly.” She is on a mission to completely rethink how we care for ageing New Zealanders.

This is the most unguarded I have ever heard Hannah McQueen and I hope you enjoy getting to know the real Hannah as much as I did.

Along the way:

+ The EnableMe origin story—business plan, boss, exit, and the earn-out grind

+ Why Kiwis avoid money talk

+ The moment a rest home contract lit a fire (and how that became Brightly)

+ The “lighthouse identity” idea: building what people don’t yet know they need. And much much more!
