"I wanted to have enough money to live comfortably by age 50. I didn't know how to do it, but I knew I would do it."
What's the connection between writing action-thriller novels (my favorites) and entrepreneurship? On this podcast, Steve Braker takes us through his journey as he transitioned from being a successful business owner to the highly competitive world of book publishing.
Steve opened his first serious business, an English language school in Leicester Square in the UK. He built it from one room above a Chinese restaurant to a four-story building with fifteen classrooms.
In 2000, Steve visited Mombasa, Kenya, and fell in love with the continent. He moved his family and started a few businesses, including becoming a PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors®) dive instructor, taking divers out to the local reefs and wrecks.
Listen to Steve's adventurous journey and get a rare inside perspective on what it takes to become a successful author.
