And yes, you guessed it right, we are both passionate about personal development and the entrepreneurial journey…


So in this episode Bruno shares how he’s evolved as an entrepreneur and human over the past few years


We talk about how our approaches to life have evolved over the years,


  • From leaving corporate for the entrepreneurial world
  • Growth mindset
  • Lesson building startups
  • Failing in a graceful manner
  • Working with your spouse!

And of course…


  • Influential marketing
