Read what previous attendees had to say:

“I found the whole Strive experience positive. The explanation from both Paul & Richard
was given in a relaxed way. Both made me feel included. A really unique opportunity.
Nothing was a silly question. The one to ones were brilliant. The peer group was brilliant
made more so by the WhatsApp community group . Hope that we all stay in touch. Look
forward to seeing everyone succeed!”

“Each session left my brain tingling with new ideas. Even though I’ve been through setting
up a business before, there was so much value in each session.”
