Australia's First BIPOC, Female-Led Founders Podcast. Est 2017.
Hello fellow founder,
Welcome to PEERS - a podcast by millennial founders for millennial founders. Join me, BIPOC female founder & Forbes 30 Under 30 Lister Michelle Akhidenor, for soul-enriching conversations with peers.
Each week, I sit down with a fellow founder or industry ally and deep dive into their entrepreneurial journey. I ask questions like: Where did they grow up? How has their upbringing impacted the choices they've made in their career to-date? How did they end up becoming a founder? How have they navigated through the inevitable challenges in business?
These conversations are honest, vulnerable and above all, human. My mission with this show is simple: to amplify diverse stories and voices; sharing conversations that matter to help fellow founders, my peers, feel less alone on their own journey.
Thank you for joining me, peers. Let's dive in!

As a facilitator for student-aged entrepreneurs, it’s not surprising that this week’s guest is a fount of practical knowledge about growing in the independent business space. But practical lessons, like finding your people, prioritising relationships, and taking time for yourself can only get you so far. You need to learn how to find “the energy” which pushes you forward, even when it’s not fun, and even when it’s not lucrative.
In this episode of Peers2Peers, powered by Shopify, Co-Founder of Real Work Scholars Elyse Burden joins the podcast to discuss letting some projects die, finding wellness and balance, and working for yourself rather than proving yourself to others.
