Perry Boyle ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆis not just our guestโ€”heโ€™s a friend, mentor, and one of the sharpest minds weโ€™ve had the honor of knowing. ๐ŸŒŸ Perryโ€™s journey is a powerful reminder thatย all labor has dignityย and that the biggest obstacles we face are often within ourselves. He challenges us to confront our fearsโ€”whether they stem from real risks or are simply perceived limitationsโ€”and to approach life with confidence and a bias for positive outcomes. ๐Ÿ“š His story underscores a profound truth: no matter how much success or wealth we achieve, purpose and meaning are what truly drive us. Perryโ€™s own search for meaning led him to @BOMA_ngo, where his leadership has helped graduate over one million people from extreme poverty, giving them hope and a dignified path to a better future ๐ŸŒ ๐ŸŒณ โœจ ๐‡๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ฅ๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐ฐ๐จ๐งโ€™๐ญ ๐ฐ๐š๐ง๐ญ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฌ: โœ…ย ๐‘๐ž๐ฌ๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž & ๐ˆ๐ง๐๐ž๐ฉ๐ž๐ง๐๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž: How Perryโ€™s unique upbringing instilled responsibility and independence from an early age. โœ…ย ๐…๐ฎ๐ง๐๐ซ๐š๐ข๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐Œ๐š๐ฌ๐ญ๐ž๐ซ๐ฒ: Lessons from raising billions in capital and what makes Perry a fundraising powerhouse. โœ…ย ๐๐š๐ฏ๐ข๐ ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐„๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐œ๐ฌ: The insights and integrity Perry gained through challenges at SAC Capital. โœ…ย ๐„๐ฆ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฐ๐ž๐ซ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐ข๐ง ๐€๐Ÿ๐ซ๐ข๐œ๐š: Perryโ€™s impact through The BOMA Project and what heโ€™s learned about sustainable development. โœ…ย ๐’๐ก๐š๐ฉ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐…๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ž: The inspiration behind @mitscapital and its role in connecting NATO and U.S. with Ukraineโ€™s defense innovations. ๐ŸŽฏ Tune in to this heartfelt and inspiring conversation that will leave you reflecting on purpose, resilience, and the power of meaningful impact. ๐Ÿ“ฝ๏ธ ๐ŸŽง Watch or listen here ๐Ÿ‘‰ #DoersDefined #Leadership #SocialImpact #PerryBoyle #Podcast
