Welcome to Your Local Entrepreneur (YLE) Podcast
Starting or growing a business is hard. Most podcasts make it look easy — selling you passive income fantasies and overnight success stories.
YLE is different. We have real conversations with real entrepreneurs about the messy, unglamorous truth of building something from scratch. I'm not a guru. I'm not selling a course. I'm on the same road you are.
If you're serious about entrepreneurship and tired of being sold a dream — pull up a seat.
