Take The Plunge is a series about the bold decision to leave comfort behind and build something of your own. Hosted by Ciaran Burke, each episode dives into the real stories of founders who traded stability for ambition — exploring what it really takes to quit your job, start a business, and grow it from the ground up. From funding hurdles and first hires to burnout and big wins, these conversations go beyond the highlight reel to uncover the mindset, grit, and defining moments behind the leap. Real people. Real risks. Real rewards.
