Against All Odds – Small Business Success After Rebuttal

What this episode covers

David Lewis set out with the goal of rebuilding a dwindling choir in his home country of Wales. What he actually achieved is a record breaking, over 6,000 member choir that tours the world; sells out the biggest venues across the globe and performs both with & for some of the most influential figures of our time. How? Self belief and an open heart. David created Young Voices, a youth choir that now performs across the world for some of the most influential people of our time. Throughout his journey, David admittedly made some mistakes; mistakes that he learned from and that allowed him to grow and flourish. By continuing to have an open heart and give everyone the time and respect that they deserve, David has crafted a path that has led him to working with Tom Jone, Shirley Bassey, Ben E. King and the amazing Maya Angelou. David is proof that no matter the scale of your goal, you can achieve it with some devout attention and a pragmatic approach to life; it’s a formula that we can all follow and a formula that echoes that of some of the world’s most successful entrepreneurs. If David can achieve goals AND break records doing so, what’s stopping you seizing your own life right now?
