Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show

I am your Special Host Mechelle McDonald

Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.

My very special guest today is Peter Wright ...

This episode discusses lessons learned from life experiences with guest Peter Wright, who has lived in Africa for 40 years. Peter emphasizes developing curiosity from a young age and persevering through challenges. He lost everything twice but rebuilt successfully. Peter stresses focusing on things one can control and finding happiness from within rather than material things. An impactful story is shared about a content farmer who prioritized peace over possessions. Peter believes sharing one's story can inspire others, advising humility and honesty without shame over past mistakes. Overall, the podcast promotes embracing life's unpredictable changes gracefully and finding purpose beyond career or financial definitions of success.

Key Moments:

  • Peter Wright is a former corporate marketing manager and business owner who has lived in Africa for 40 years and traveled extensively in sub-Saharan Africa. He is now a podcast host, editor, and writer.
  • Peter emphasizes the importance of curiosity, perseverance, determination and not giving up easily. It's also important to recognize when you're on the wrong path.
  • He has experienced major setbacks like losing all his wealth and possessions twice due to political changes, but was able to rebuild successfully both times.
  • Major life events like losing everything can be soul-destroying initially but once it happens, you realize you don't need material possessions to be happy.
  • Your career and interests can change dramatically over time, so it's okay to change directions in life.
  • Don't measure your own success by others' standards. Happiness comes from living according to your own values.
  • Peter was inspired by meeting a very happy, content old man in Rhodesia who rejected modern conveniences to preserve his peace and savings.
  • Sharing personal stories can have a big impact on listeners and encourage them through hardship.
  • It's important to be honest about mistakes and not feel ashamed when sharing experiences.
  • Respect others' opinions even if you disagree; the truth is usually more nuanced than any single perspective.
