Gianmarco’s seminar on Social Entrepreneurship in Zürich, Switzerland on Thursday, November 19th, 2020: Social Entrepreneurship Seminar
Dear Friends,
Welcome to Season 2 of the podcast! I decided to give it a name change, which I share more about in the introduction to this episode.
I also share an amazing conversation with Gianmarco Marinello, who is a Social Entrepreneur, an Innovator and the Founder of the social start-up Nai Nami. Nai Nami is based in Nairobi, Kenya and gives disadvantaged youths of the Mathare Slum an opportunity to use their street skills and life stories to become Storyteller Guides who give tourists an opportunity to experience Nairobi through the eyes of a street child on an intimate walking tour through the city center. All of the youth involved with Nai Nami now have a job, earn a regular income and live a life free of crime. Nai Nami won the Traveller’s Choice Award 2020 by Viator and is rated as the #1 Tour in Nairobi on TripAdvisor. In March 2019, Nai Nami was handed over to the youths who now own and successfully run this profitable business themselves.
Over all, this is an amazing conversation for anyone who feels like they’re struggling to find their place in the world, regardless of whether you’re interested in becoming a social entrepreneur or something else. Some of the things we’ll be talking about are: transforming weaknesses into strengths, how you can make a positive difference in the world and the difference between purpose and passion. Gianmarco is an inspiring and generous individual who is all about empowering others and I so look forward to sharing his insights with you.
Enjoy the show!

EPISODE QUOTES
“How I got to where I am now…just trying out new things, being resilient, being patient and always believing that there will be the right spot for me somewhere along this journey, along this road. And I’m not giving up until I find this spot.” - Gianmarco Marinello
“Purpose is something you feel obliged to do. There is actually pressure coming from the inside… the fun part is passion: which tasks, which people, which environment is the right one…it’s easy to find out your passion, and often the purpose is hidden somewhere there. And you have to find both and then you can connect it.” - Gianmarco Marinello

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
