Lessons for your entrepreneurial journey.

What happens when a specialist surgeon can’t find a product that helps his patients’ scars heal better, and nothing on the market works for his own eczema and acne?

In this Built Not Born episode, Dr Ashley Naidoo shares how he went from operating theatre to founder of Biome Renew, using African microbiome science, AI skin analysis, and patient data to create world-class, affordable cosmeceuticals for South Africans.

He and host Carmen Murray unpack the real work behind turning a personal problem into a scalable product: protecting your IP, pricing for a price-sensitive market, navigating Clicks’ supplier development journey, learning “foreign” skills like finance and marketing, avoiding burnout, and knowing when to say no to the wrong deal.

If you own a business, or are planning to start one, this conversation gives you practical advice and important lessons to think of, to build success for yourself, and also how to define what success looks like.
