Before We Get There
Exploring life’s journeys from family, hobbies, careers, personal growth, and more with your host Nicholas Braman. During frank conversations with a wide variety of guests from Singapore and beyond, we talk about how people got to where they are, how they keep moving forward, and where they want to get to. You’ll hear from entrepreneurs, corporate leaders, creatives, athletes, people carving out their own paths, and more. As we dig into these stories I aim to not only learn from their journeys and expertise but also see how similar everyone is, finding our way through life, doing the best we can. Most times in life when we meet people, they just pass through our lives, and we don’t take the time to get to know them and understand their stories. In Before We Get There, we aim to do just that, by exploring people’s stories and sharing them with you. I’m excited to start this podcast with you and share what our journeys are like Before We Get There. Learn more about Nicholas at www.nicholasbraman.com
