From the age of 12, he was building a business in order to contribute to his family after his father — the family’s sole breadwinner— left. While his family tried to hide their struggles, Owais felt the pressure and stood up to it, finding a way to contribute through social media marketing.In this episode, we hear how he turned a harsh family situation into motivation to become an entrepreneur online in middle school, and podcast host in College.Read my Podcast Blog (link below) to find the most noteworthy moments from the interviews.

Have you ever been ready to take a risk and do what you’ve always dreamed of? Then fear and negative mindsets creep in. You wonder if you’re smart enough, experienced enough, or just plain good enough. That resistance builds imaginary walls that ultimately hold you back. We help attack these voices in your head on the Fear is a Liar podcast.  Ronnie interviews entrepreneurs who share how they embraced these fears in light of risk, self-doubt, failure, and unknowns. Their stories will help you challenge your own fears, fuel your success, and inspire you to go for what you want.   Ronnie was inspired to produce the narrative format of the show by his favorite podcast: How I Built This with Guy Raz, from NPR.
