The Reena Gore Podcast - Unleash & Thrive
The business intelligence podcast for African SME owners, entrepreneurs, and leaders who are serious about building companies that last.
Hosted by Reena Gore — business growth coach, leadership mentor, and AI & digital automation strategist based in Nairobi, Kenya — Unleash & Thrive exists for one reason: to give East Africa’s most ambitious leaders the frameworks, conversations, and raw truths they need to scale with systems, lead with purpose, and build beyond themselves.
Every episode goes deep on the issues that actually keep African business owners up at night:
🔹 Building systems and operations that run without you
🔹 Retaining your best people in a competitive market
🔹 AI and digital automation tools accessible to African SMEs
🔹 Corporate governance and succession planning
🔹 Leadership that closes the management gap
This is not a motivational show. This is a business growth platform — where real experts, proven founders, and experienced leaders share what actually works in the Kenyan and East African market.
New episodes every two weeks.
