My latest episode w Steven Stark , President CEO of Tsawwassen Shuttles , the largest business within his @TsawwassenFN , embodies what the podcast was designed for. It breaks stigmas, teaches, uses storytelling to highlight overcoming adversity, not being defined by challenges, but using them to build, to lead, putting past struggles where they belong-into the character of a man who teaches us that working incredibly hard can build the unimaginable. Thank you Steven, for the privilege of sharing your story. Tune in for a powerful episode. open.spotify.com/episode/6Ms…
