Daisy Hoe on positive mindset, her disability being her strength, Young Enterprise and founding Go Able
SeedsShow Notes
Daisy Hoe is an entrepreneur who is value led and creating something that will help others. Go Able is her idea to help wheelchair users find out whether buildings and places are accessible. In this interview we talk about some of her life journey with a real focus on the power of who you surround yourself with, what it is like to grow up with a disability in a small town and the impact that Young Enterprise and her teachers had on her to start a new venture while in high school. We also discuss the impact that a word of encouragement can have on a life journey - who might you impact with a kind word or insight? If you want to listen to more she will be sharing at the Seeds Impact Conference next Sunday.

Katharine Watson was my latest guest for a conversation that went rambling all over through a City and its past, present and future! This was a fascinating journey into the past but to start we also discussed Katharine's own life journey as well as her founding of The Christchurch Archaelogy Project. What is it that might lie beneath us underneath the streets that we walk or the houses we live in? The Christchurch earthquakes accelerated a period of exploration here and so we talk about that and what has been found. This is one of more than 500 conversation so if you enjoy it check out more at www.theseeds.nz Website for the Christchurch Archaelogy Project: https://www.christchurcharchaeology.org/who-we-are
