Eric Sim helped his dad sell noodle on the street of Singapore growing up. He failed both Math & English at School and received discouraging remarks from his teacher. 

Despite the remarks, Eric graduated from university with an engineering degree and advanced his study and  career in finance and investment banking.

He built his personal brand on LinkedIn and his side business while still working as the Managing Director at UBS. Now he has amassed close to 2.8M followers. 

In this episode, Eric shares how he always has multiple projects going on, including holding a job as the managing director while travelling for lectures and speaking engagements. When he left UBS in 2017, his transition from banking to entrepreneurship was smooth.

Hélène Lesterlin is a fox, in the sense that she has multiple-interests and able to transform herself for any new domain she desires to explore.

In this episode, Hélène shares her fascinating journey of how she started her study in science and shifted her major to sculpture & performance. After the 2016 presidential election in the United States, she decided to change again. This time, she wanted to go into the startup world, with no experience.

She didn't know anything about angel investors, business models or startups in general. But that didn't stop her. Within a year, she attracted investors, business partners and even a new job. Again, as a fox, she has been able to handle it all.

Listen to her story of how she tells the story of a fox and a hedgehog, in relation to how she's able to change and thrive.

Jessica Powell, former Google VP turned music software startup cofounder, author and writer, shares her journey at Google and in the tech industry. Her fictional novel, The Big Disruption, has a unique view of the Silicon Valley and its culture, with fresh insights and humour.

Jessica attributes her career up the Google ladder to both serendipity and hard work. Or as she described humbly, luck and timing played a big part. Perhaps luck favours the bold when Jessica said YES to many projects when no one wanted to do them.

In today's episode, Jessica also shares how she got started in London, as an American and how she has navigated her career and life through different challenges and opportunities.

• In 7 months, she got her first outside investment to open a store in San Francisco.
• In 2 years, she's on ABC's Shark Tank and the list of Forbes 30 Under 30 Class 2020.

On Shark Tank, Barbara Corcoran called her “the most sophisticated store owner she’s ever seen.”

After getting her Master in International Business, a short stint with banking and an international NGO, Julie Murat knew that working for corporations or large organizations was not for her.

In search of her new path, Julie connected online with the co-founder of Bridge for Billions at its conceptual stage. After meeting the co-founder in person, Julie packed up her whole life in France in two suitcases and moved to Madrid to build Bridge for Billions, alongside the other two co-founders. 

I'm impressed and inspired by the way Julie used her change thinking to find and build a new path. Now as the COO of this booming and growing incubator having served 750 entrepreneurs worldwide, Julie has been enjoying her life in Madrid. She has a lot of insights to share on this episode of 10X Vision.

Kim Ransom approached me for a podcast crossover and that's how I learned about Kim and invited her as my podcast guest. I knew very little about Kim before my interview of her. What surprises me while interviewing her is her humility, besides all of her achievements.

She shows us that being ambition means achieving success for ourselves while lifting others. She designs her future with her team in mind. In this episode, you'll also hear how Kim starts each of her business, runs her ventures while starting a family and now with two beautiful young kids.
