Australia's First Black-Led Millennial Leaders Podcast. Est 2017.
Dear fellow minority founder,
Welcome to PEERS - a podcast by BIPOC founders for BIPOC founders. Join me, Nigerian-Greek Australian and Forbes 30 Under 30 Lister, Michelle Akhidenor, for soul-enriching conversations with peers.
Each week, I sit down with a young award-winning BIPOC founder and deep dive into their entrepreneurial journey. I ask questions like: Where did you grow up? How has your cultural background helped or hindered you along the way? How have you learnt to navigate white spaces in business? What is it really like to be a Person of Color in business?
These conversations are honest, vulnerable and above all, human. My mission with this show is simple: to amplify the voices of minority founders worldwide, impacting 1 million BIPOC millennials by 2027.
Thank you for joining me on this journey.
In Your Service,
Michelle

As a facilitator for student-aged entrepreneurs, it’s not surprising that this week’s guest is a fount of practical knowledge about growing in the independent business space. But practical lessons, like finding your people, prioritising relationships, and taking time for yourself can only get you so far. You need to learn how to find “the energy” which pushes you forward, even when it’s not fun, and even when it’s not lucrative.
In this episode of Peers2Peers, powered by Shopify, Co-Founder of Real Work Scholars Elyse Burden joins the podcast to discuss letting some projects die, finding wellness and balance, and working for yourself rather than proving yourself to others.
