Zoom In Zoom Out is about perspective—about taking a deeper look into the journey's of individuals renowned in their fields. It's about moving beyond the accolades that they have garnered but looking at how they got there—through their failures, systems and more. It's also about recognizing that these individuals are humans too—with their fair share of guilty pleasures and Netflix binges. And who better to take you through this journey than 3 friends, woefully underqualified yet brimming with curiosity and a desire to understand what it takes to achieve excellence while remaining human.
