Is It Crazy?
Stories of crazy ideas turned into Career and Life success.
Every guest on this show had an idea someone called crazy. They did it anyway.
Is It Crazy? is where they share the fear, the leap, and every career rule they broke to get there. Because the crazy idea isn't just about the career. It's about finally living a life that's actually yours.
Hosted by Eleonora Valenti, Career & Business coach, former Nike and Mindvalley HR Leader, and someone who leaped too.
What if the idea you've been calling crazy is the one worth betting on?
