Meet Hector Hughes, one of the minds behind Unplugged.
At the time of recording, Hector was not only expanding the business but also reflecting on the best ways to manage personal relationships in the digital age.
And the choices that demanded, that led to self-realisations - and a new entrepreneurial opportunity.
Join me as Hector offers his unfiltered view on the challenges of startup life, the way the world is going, and the problem of us all focussing on the wrong things.
"Life is about embracing each moment, be it a hurdle in business or a milestone in personal growth."
Get ready for an episode full of serious reflections, searching for meaning, and trying to make each individual's life, have a bit more of a human experience to it.
