Most entrepreneurs want to help people with their business, but today’s guest takes that to an extreme.

Jared Angaza is a strategist, philanthropist, and founder who has built his success on helping others succeed. Especially people most entrepreneurs don’t think they can help.

That’s why Jared has spent about a decade of his career building businesses in African nations like Kenya and Rwanda. His social entrepreneurship efforts have helped free 49 Rwandan women from the clutches of sex slavery by teaching them an entrepreneurial path forward.

You can’t donate dignity, but you can give a path so downtrodden people can experience it for themselves.

As cool as Jared’s stories are, one really stands out to me. In this episode, he tells me about how he walked with wild lions on the African savanna. And they didn’t even eat him!

In this episode, you’ll also hear story after story about how Jared, through social entrepreneurship, affected the people of Africa and how they in turn affected him.

Invest in your perspective because you know it’s going to change the way you view the world.

Too much social entrepreneurship, Jared says, is about putting out fires instead of changing perspectives.
