Hosted by Sammy Kennedy · business · EN-AU · 123 episodes

About this Podcast:

Every founder is called delusional before they're called successful. The world has never been changed by people who thought realistically. Every breakthrough, category-defining business and industry leader was once dismissed as too ambitious, too risky or completely delusional. DELUSIONAL is where entrepreneurs, founders, creators and high performers come to challenge conventional thinking and hear the conversations most people never get access to. Hosted by Sammy Kennedy, each episode goes beyond the highlight reel to uncover the decisions, failures, mindset and strategies behind people building extraordinary businesses and lives. From multi-million-dollar founders to industry disruptors, you'll discover what it really takes to create something that everyone else thought was impossible. This isn't motivation. It's the blueprint for thinking bigger, leading differently
