Welcome to the first episode of "Power, Wealth or Purpose?", where Paul interviews renowned social entrepreneur Saskia Bruysten, co-founder of Yunus Social Business. Saskia's passion for social impact has been the driving force behind her impressive career journey, from consulting at BCG to founding an investment fund with Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Mohammad Yunus that promotes social ventures in developing countries.

She talks about the importance of internships in shaping one's career path and why international experience is a game-changer. Saskia also shares her thoughts on overcoming the frustration of increasing poverty after the COVID-19 pandemic and why she believes the changemakers of the next generation should start off as corporate consultants.
