Welcome to the Screw It Just DO It podcast
Subscribe and be a part of the movement to help you get to where you want to be.
I'm your host Alex Chisnall, and on this podcast I look to answer one simple question:
How do you get to where you want to be?
I chat to inspirational entrepreneurs, sports stars, and entertainers who took the leap.
They became the people they wanted to be. They did what they always wanted to do.
They might just help you discover how to do it too...
I'm an entrepreneur and podcaster, who's fascinated by human potential. I love taking my guest's experiences plus things I have learnt along the way to help others get to where they want to be.
I'm super-proud for this show to be in the top 1% of all podcasts globally, listened to in 180+ countries and charted #1 everywhere from the UK to Uganda.
Every Wednesday morning we launch a new episode and we encourage and are grateful all your comments.
Cheers,
Alex 🤘🏼
