Didn't See That Coming
Life is simple *said no one ever*. Its a series of pivots that propel us towards our greatest and most fulfilling lives. In Didnt See That Coming, Zoë Weldon talks with business owners in these candid conversations about the upside of these pivots in their life and business. What drives us to make changes? What does it look like to leap into the unknown? And how can we learn and be inspired by these risk takers, innovators and extraordinary people who listened to their gut to follow a path less ordinary. Join Zoë in these honest conversations about how life isnt a straight line and often not what we expected but that that is where the magic lies.
