Join Brent, Joseph, and Brandon as they reflect on Day Two of @ColeHatter's Thrive Conference. This is the fifth year of Thrive, with its attendees spanning 15 countries, and it continues its focus on the for-purpose business model (helping those in need), and the Breaking Business Barriers podcast is here live in Las Vegas to take it all in. Today we're joined by our special guest Miro Wcislo on this episode.

Miro has a special story about he and his family moving from Poland to the United States when he was five years old. There were difficult times but with a lot of hard work and determination, Miro is thriving and doing so with a warm heart.

When he was five years old, his parents decided to move to the United States from Poland. Even though he was a child, this changed his entire life from that point on. Seeing the hardships that his parents had to face gave him a different view on life. He clearly remembers the times when his parents struggled to simply put food on their table. Even though he was a little boy, he remembers thinking to himself, “One day I will make all of my parents’ struggles worth it.”

After graduating high school, he attended the University of Illinois at Chicago and majored in Accounting with Summa Cum Laude. He worked hard for what he had for as long as he can remember; even though school required a lot of work, he always kept himself busy. One can say he tried it all, he sold pizzas, he was a telemarketer selling radio advertisements, traded stocks, produced and DJ’d, and finally got his Certified Public Accountant license to work as an auditor. He got to travel, meet the most sincere and intelligent people, but most importantly, gained experience and found his passion.

Here he is today, a proud owner of HodgePodge and host of Bossed 2 Boss Podcast. HodgePodge is not an average company you would assume he'd start but after learning the basics about himself and his background he found his calling. Helping other people is something that makes him whole. He strongly believes that there is no better feeling than seeing someone else’s smile, yet alone let that smile be caused by your actions.

Through HodgePodge, he makes sure that a customer will be happy through the cleared space that will allow them for that next step. While listening to his podcast, Bossed 2 Boss, his listeners can gain motivation and truly learn what it is like to start something from scratch, and hopefully reassures them that anything is possible regardless of your age and experience.
