The Rising Generation of World-Changing Entrepreneurs with Milan Kordestani
Brandishing his youth as one of his greatest assets, social entrepreneur, inventor, and author Milan Kordestani can’t be contained to a single industry. A business visionary from a young age, Milan began his first financial endeavor in middle school by breeding and selling rare species of turtles. From there he continued following his natural interests which extended into writing and creating space for people to talk about challenging topics. He founded a series of startups including a freelancing site, a publishing company, and a record label. Through these experiences, he gained business knowledge and clarity about his role pertaining to startups— Milan is a small business incubator. One of Milan’s favorite parts of building a company is getting it off the ground. He enjoys being the boots on the ground, identifying problems he might be able to solve for a specific demographic, and finding the right people to build a dream. As soon as it’s time to talk about scaling the business, he’s usually onto another project. Instead of succumbing to imposter syndrome, Milan chooses to see his youth as a strength. Through his publications, he is passionate about using his voice and unique perspective to make big changes in the world. By combining his love for entrepreneurship and his heart for bringing people together, he stands out as a leader in his generation seeking to make the world a better place.Main TopicsMilan’s early entrepreneurial experience as a reptile breeder (02:55)The roots of an entrepreneurial spirit (05:30)Youth perspective in the agriculture industry (08:45)Milan’s love of sharing his perspective through writing (11:45)Overcoming imposter syndrome (13:15)Milan’s first real company (14:55)I’m Just Saying shares tools for active listening and sharing (20:50)The process of starting multiple companies (25:10)Vetting new ideas (30:00) Episode Linkshttps://www.milankordestani.comhttps://audo.com Go to TheFridayHabit.com to find show notes for this episode.
