For the first episode in season 1, I spoke with Austin Okolo an award-winning entrepreneur who is showing maturity beyond his years in the ventures and positivity he’s spreading. Austin is the founder and director of Born To Stand Out London, a premium fashion brand, he is also one of the founding members of the Gen Z Club and he runs the Reading With Austin newsletter all whilst studying at university. It’s a great conversation and I hope it inspires someone.
N.B. If it isn't clear in the first segment we are talking about Nigeria, where we're both from
