Lesson 42: Becoming Independent at a Young Age with 20-Year Old Entrepreneur Alexandre Lebon
In this week’s episode, I interview the youngest person that I’ve ever had on the School of Travels podcast, 20-Year-Old Alexandre Lebon.
At the age of 20, Alex has already been to several countries, lived for a year in the US, and dropped out of university to pursue his dream of learning Japanese and making a life in Japan, while also starting his own new online business.
How did Alex become so confident and hard-working at such a young age? How can more young people get the courage to pursue their dreams?
