Business
Suki is an extrovert born with a different name, and believes as she says was born to be “from birth a little different”. Her love of adventure has taken her from her birthplace in the UK, to France, to living in Australia on a couple of occasions, now permanently (though she may travel back to France again soon). This podcast with Suki really serves as an introduction to someone who has developed a one of a kind niche business, competition strategy. To discover more about this unique way she helps owners build their businesses, visit her website. Otherwise, to enjoy your life as much as she does, decide to live outside your comfort zone and do things that are different… … and of course avoid kangaroos when driving because we all know kangaroos do NOT read signs. 1:30 - classic middle child with the crazy name. “Set-up from birth to be a little bit different”. Sukina (her name) - phrase in Japanese meaning something “you really like”. 4:30 - in England she decided to study a 2nd language where to do so requires going to live in that country for a year, which she did… teaching English and spending time taking random trips around the country. 7:00 - lives now in Australia but is headed back to France. Had to work 3 months in rural Australia (ended up at a sheep farm) for 3 months to get her visa. 11:00 - describes Australian’s as quite friendly as opposed to UK (ex. In the elevator). Took time to get used to friendliness as opposed to thinking people wanted something from her. 16:20 - kangaroo dodging when driving is a real thing, don’t realize how big they are. 18:30 - live outside your comfort zone and do some things that are different; travel even if for a day or a week; do things that make life interesting. Pitch - competition strategist to generate leads for business; designs competitions around specific businesses to grow the business.
