    A feature length episode with Sabrina Osso, founder and CEO of Osso Safe. We talk about her violent upbringing and her desire to get out of her family home. 

    Sabrina talks about her computer science degree and how she didn’t enjoy tech support or corporate jobs in her early part of her career. Sabrina talks about the role of dance has impacted her life massively. We go into her obsession with dance and how she had to deal with rejection at auditions.  

    We talk about her inspiration of Osso safe, where she helps people’s safety in work, life, and play. Her app and courses certifies properties to stop abuse of men, women, and children.

This is so interesting to hear her views on tactics for success. We then talk about her change in business model to a hybrid online and group coaching sessions to reach the most people.
