TV's Dr Dawn Harper: The Mistake That Still Haunts Me
About this podcast
"It's like Diary of a CEO, but for people that have to do the school run."
After my younger brother Jordan took his own life, I sold the business I’d spent a decade building and decided to go all-in on creating something meaningful.
This podcast is the result.
Project Possible is about success through adversity. Motivation. Resilience. Second chances, and what's truly possible.
Because your past doesn't define your future. You do.
Expect conversations with famous faces and unsung heroes. Entrepreneurs. Athletes. Entertainers. Academics. Amazing people, and even more incredible stories.
