Motorcycling across Africa & building location independence with the Founder of Maid This

Neel Parekh left his golden handcuffs role at a VC firm to travel the world and create his own version of location independence. 40+ countries later, he’s more than recouped what he lost when he left his career behind, and he’s built a highly successful national franchise that anyone can operate from anywhere in the world. Today Neel stops by to discuss this concept of converting bricks and mortar businesses into remote businesses, as well as share some of his most interesting tales from the road. From motorcycling across Africa to being left alone on a deserted island, his success story comes with plenty of entertainment as well.
