About this listen

What separates the world’s most successful entrepreneurs from the rest? They’ve all uncovered their business superpower—a unique trait, insight, or strategy that propelled them to the top.

In Origin Stories, you'll dive into the journeys of today’s most groundbreaking founders, including Melanie Perkins (Canva), Tope Awotona (Calendly), Sam Parr (The Hustle), Ben Francis (Gymshark), Hamdi Ulukaya (Chobani), and more. Each chapter reveals a different entrepreneurial superpower—Vision, Execution, Disruption, Leadership & Culture—that helped these leaders turn bold ideas into billion-dollar businesses.

How did Melanie Perkins transform Canva into a $40B+ giant by democratizing design?
What made Tope Awotona turn a scheduling frustration into the multimillion-dollar Calendly?
How did Sam Parr master audience-first growth to build The Hustle and sell it to HubSpot?
