An inspirational podcast about how we were never meant to be common. There are giants among us who have figured out how to be uncommon and inspire greatness. Each episode is a narrated journey about how they started “incredible” out of nothing, or how they broke the status quo, or faced down adversity, or took the road less traveled. "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants." The Podcast is hosted by Tinotenda Charles Rutanhira -- @tcrutan -- www.tcrutanhira.com
