#18 - Gary Izunwa – Embracing your Less Privileged Background for Career Success - Social Mobility

from Origin Story with David McIntosh Jr · host David McIntosh Jr

My friend and fellow podcast host Gary Izunwa stops by to talk to me about a cause that it is so close to my heart – social mobility. I believe Gary is one of the most inspirational and impactful advocates in this space. Gary is the host behind the Climbing the Rungs podcast – a podcast that interviews guests from low-socioeconomic backgrounds and unravel key themes, lessons, tales and traits from those who have been able to navigate the social mobility landscape. In this episode expect to learn: - What is social mobility and how does the UK stack up in comparison to counterparts - Cultural Capital and how important it is for success - What “controllables” and “non-controllables” does an individual from a low-socioeconomic background face - How travelling and embracing other cultures can act as a catalyst for socioeconomic growth I really loved shooting this episode and have so much admiration for Gary – thanks for stopping by.
