Tenacity, Drive, Perseverance, Thankfulness - Ice Cream Cake Entrepreneurship, Star Wars and Style - it’s all here. To gauge quality through defining the diversity of personality, to build highly successful teams and companies (bought by the likes of Oracle, Microsoft and Barnes and Noble) AND spin up a disruptive & ultra-successful Accelerator Lab - you have to come at things with an adventurous and unconventional mindset. This is a complete and epic brain adventure into a consistently inconsistent career created by fearlessness and defined by trust, hard work and ultimately, success.. You’ll never be bored if you don’t want to be. Press play. We promise you won’t be disappointed in the progress you make with this one. The mom-economy is coming - Pepperlane is here.
