"I was working alongside some incredible leaders; as an opportunity to work in an environment like that, the learning and growth didn't even compare""

Anand Mistry is dynamo who is making great strides in inspiring young people and the creative possibilities that otherwise wouldn't have been available to them. He is co-founder of ProjectChakra, which has provided award-winning immersive workshops and experiential learning experiences with the purpose of inspiring action for social impact and entrepreneurial leadership.

These experiences have been branded as "life changing" - and have helped to broaden thousands young people’s aspirations and personal growth opportunities, opening up career pathways along the way. This episode highlights the purpose of this show to a tee, making it arguably my favourite. Anand reveals the key moments that made all the difference in how his life journey unfolded, and just what it took to make ProjectChakra the multi-award winning initiative that it is today.
