My name is Fitz Mayi. I’m one of those people who believes you can do anything. Maybe I’m naive, but I’ve seen it in myself and in the incredible people I’ve met. That’s what this podcast is about.

The road may be hard, but my aim is to shed light on stories of incredible people so you can believe it can be done, and show up for yourself.
