PEERS. ESTABLISHED 2017. 9 YEARS OF FOUNDER STORIES.
Hello fellow founder,
Welcome to PEERS — the podcast that treats founders like what they actually are:…
I'm Michelle Akhidenor, Forbes 30 Under 30 Lister, and each week I sit down with a founder to go beneath the highlight reel: Where did they come from? What shaped the choices that got them here? What almost broke them — and how have they kept going?
This isn't a founder story told from the outside. It's founder to founder, peer to peer — honest, unfiltered, human. Because the version of entrepreneurship people see is rarely the one that we live.
Welcome to the table, peers. Let's dive in.
