Today I’m joined by Sanya Rajpal, Founder and CEO of AdagioVR.Sanya is an Activist, International Development Expert and Serial Entrepreneur dedicated to transforming systems that unleash individual potential - and a truly remarkable individual in her own right.She built her first company while at Law School, Dignifly, with the goal to empower people to transform their own lives and solve problems in their communities and the world.She then went on to the UN to focus on growing tech entrepreneurship ecosystems before co-founding her latest venture, AdagioVR with her father.AdagioVR is a mental health and high-performance startup using cutting-edge clinical and therapeutic techniques that drive preventative mental wellbeing and behaviour change through Virtual Reality.Now, I'm often skeptical about VR being applied to lots of, in my opinion, not very useful use cases. But this is one where I have personally used the tech, and for me it was genuinely game changing, helping me work through some trauma that I have put a lot of time and therapy into, and hasn't made the same difference.So personally, I am honestly forever grateful to Sanya already for the work she's done.In this episode we discuss:What Nobel Prize winner and social entrepreneur Muhammad Yunus told Sanya about creating changeHow to secure leverage in businessWhen your strength becomes your weaknessBeing told you’re the wrong person to front your own venture if you raise - hello, a lot of biasWhy it’s time to let go of funding FOMOLinks:Checkout AdagioVR - https://adagiovr.comJoin the waitlist - https://adagiovr.com/jointhewaitinglistConnect with Sanya on Instagram & LinkedInRebel Ideas: The Power of Diverse Thinking by Matthew Syed - https://www.matthewsyed.co.uk/book/rebel-ideas-the-power-of-diverse-thinking/Listen to our episode with Joyeeta Das - https://open.spotify.com/episode/2NV8fCzOUKaGSU0xeUQwMJ?si=8blzNAQQR2uErhOpj0SN2w
