From First Million At 20 To Creator Economy Visionary | Leonard Sekyonda | 4

From growing up in a low-income area of London to building a million-dollar business in the Philippines in his teens, Leonard Sekyonda's journey is anything but ordinary.

Now at the forefront of the creator economy with MYCOMEUP, he is hired by some of the world's largest brands to work on their social media and influencer marketing campaigns.

In this conversation, we dive deep into Leonard's journey from his early days in a low-income, single-parent home to becoming a successful entrepreneur and published author.

We explore his path to building a seven-figure business as a teenager, developing a relentless mindset, and spotting unconventional opportunities.

Leonard shares powerful insights on embracing discomfort, goal setting, handling failure, and what truly separates successful visionaries from the rest.
