About this listen

 In April of 2023, my fiancé and I decided to quit our full-time jobs to not just dive into the world of entrepreneurship, but create a world where we get paid to do what we love. That is, get paid to live. Welcome to the Get Paid to Live Podcast. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, you work for someone else, or you’re just curious about creating your dream life in these episodes you’ll find inspiration, tips, and motivation on how you can navigate that process through our honest reflections as new entrepreneurs and candid interviews with ambitious everyday dreamers (like you and I).Ifeoma Ahuna + Shaw Talebi Economics Leadership Management & Leadership
