Zimbabwe-born entrepreneur Dave Thompson, co-founder of Hometime and founder of RunRemote, didn’t grow up around traditional career paths. He grew up around entrepreneurs, everywhere, all the time. That foundation shaped a career built on freedom, leverage and the belief that business should serve your life, not swallow it.

In today's episode, Dave shares how he took a Bondi Airbnb experiment and turned it into a multi-country, 200-person operation with institutional investment… and then walked away to build an entirely new model of entrepreneurship. Through RunRemote, he’s helping ecommerce teams hire top global talent without the middleman, bloated margins or opaque BPO models.

Today, we're discussing:

• How Dave built Hometime from a Bondi Airbnb listing into a 200-person, multi-country operation
• The formula behind his “zero-to-one” founder mindset and venture studio approach
• Why global talent is becoming ecommerce’s biggest competitive edge
• How Run Remote is reinventing offshore hiring for quality, transparency and cost efficiency
• The systems, frameworks and mindset shifts founders need to scale without burning out
