Trash to Cash: The Circular Economy (feat. Vojtech Vosecky)

In today's show, I'm receiving Vojtech Vosecky, one of Europe's top expert in Circular Economy and rising Content creator.

We explore:
-The Circular economy and practical examples of new business models that will lead to less trash and generate more cash.
-Whether a shift to full circularity is more likely to happen Top Down (from States/Governments and regulations) or Bottom Up (From communities).
-The underestimated power of the Creator Economy and the vital role that Content Creators on LinkedIn have to play in diffusing transformative ideas and new business models.
-A new form of monetary value: Inspiring Others. Inspiring masses to drive impact is probably one of the best ways to solve this crisis and accrue vast monetary gains along the way.
