About Passion and Purpose
The Passion and Purpose podcast was created for 5 reasons. 1. To help new entrepreneurs establish their digital footprint 2. To showcase purposeful businesses borne out of passion 3. To communicate an out-of-the-box solution 4. To share impossible visions and entrepreneurial adventures 5. To share tips, tricks, and hacks from "people who have been there and done that" To do that, I would need as much help as I can get to help spread the word. Are you with me? #PassionandPurpose #BusinessDevelopment #BizDevMadeEasy #GrowingTogether

How to Launch Your Passion Project with Galicia Gordon
Are you new to the entrepreneurial world? No worries, Galicia will show you that you have the opportunity to work to build a software, hardware, or passion project. Many beginners make their first leap through experience-based learning. In today’s Passion and Purpose Podcast episode, we will sit with Galicia Gordon, the Founder of Leading Learners, a global platform that aims to support students through free and accessible resources. Leading Learners has reached students from all corners of the world, including students from Harvard, Columbia, McGill, Oxford, among several top tier institutes. With over 100,000 individual students impacted globally, Leading Learners has become the one-stop platform for free student resources. Over the course of one year, Galicia has promoted over $4M in scholarships and thousands of supportive tools to thousands of underprivileged student visitors every month. She has been a direct assistant to student's unaccessible discrepancy between free and credible resources. Galicia has landed her mark with a life-changing, unique organization for students, being the largest platform to offer completely free, updated, and accessible resources to people of all ages and backgrounds. She has had several media features, such as a UBC podcast, congratulating her efforts within her venture. In one of her supporters' words from the University of Bristol, Leading Learners is "the most extensive and resourceful student platform." The organization is targeting the unheard stories of students with academic struggles and financial barriers. Free lessons, tutoring, and accessible resources are far too limited — making learning both financially and accessibly hardening. Being able to impact 1000s of educators, students, and parents each month with credible, easy, and accessible resources through Leading Learners has raised Galicia's spearheading impact on the global scale. Listen into this episode for project formation and project brainstorming to find a team and project that inspires you to build something great.

Why Brandstory Matters and How To Create One
Brand story is often taken for granted by most business owners so in this episode, Ms. Jen Cajucom shared a template that we can all use to craft one that our ideal clients can resonate with. Jen Cajucom, Editor for Visuals and Community Engagement for Marketing in Asia, and a passionate CEO brand strategist who helps CEOs, entrepreneurs and business owners find their true voice, and translate that into a more authentic and a more human centered brand through storytelling. She also curates her own podcast "Your Brand, Your Story", so you can be sure that brand story is her "zone of genius". In this episode, Jen mentioned how we can take advantage of our own stories, and communicate a genuine message so that people can understand what we can do to help them, and why we keep doing it. To determine your ideal customers, Jen also mentioned that instead of answering the question "what we love doing", we should also add "what we love doing for other people". This way, we can find where our skills will add more value and become more relevant to our ideal clients. I hope you'll learn more about crafting your brand story in this episode, and if you have more topics in mind, feel free to drop them in the comments below, and I'll try my best to find the best resource person who can help me deliver that topic soon.
