In this episode of the Jasper Blueprint podcast, Bessi invites established business leaders to reflect about the interplay between continuous learning, operational agility in entrepreneurship, and the pursuit of both meaning and money in business. 

Bessi begins with a personal recount of her podcasting journey, emphasising the value of endurance and the perspicacity gained through consistent effort – a metaphor for the entrepreneurial voyage.She examines the dichotomy between diving into new experiences as a novice and seeking expertise to leapfrog pitfalls. She argues for a balance between explorative curiosity and strategic outside help, both aimed at enhancing business acumen and personal fulfilment.

Also in this episode:

• The importance of stepping into new endeavours with curiosity, allowing oneself to be a beginner and embracing the learning process, which can ultimately inform business innovation.
• Recognizing when to leverage external expertise to save time, money, and sidestep potential pain points instead of striving to solve every challenge independently.
• The benefits of reintroducing playfulness and novelty into professional and personal life to refresh one’s perspective and avoid the stagnation of thought and action.
• The necessity of initiating change and adopting new strategic frameworks now rather than delaying in anticipation of a more stable future.
