In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode, Zoran is joined by Rohit Maini—award-winning business leader, host of Everyday Empires, and Managing Director of two thriving companies. Together they dismantle the myths of entrepreneurship and explore how empathy, authenticity, and collaboration are reshaping modern leadership.

Entrepreneurship is often glamorized—fast cars, big money, effortless wins. The reality is messier, braver, and far more human. Zoran and Rohit unpack the unpolished truth of building and leading businesses, including Rohit’s personal story of stepping into his late father’s firm and transforming grief into grounded leadership. They also dive into masculinity in business—moving beyond stereotypes toward presence, values, and responsible vulnerability. Whether you’re leaving corporate for your own venture or redefining success on your terms, this conversation offers practical wisdom for your hero’s journey.

Key Talking Points:

• Why Rohit launched Everyday Empires to tell real, unpolished founder stories
• The gap between social-media “success” and day-to-day entrepreneurial reality
• Lessons from leading Apex Accountancy after his father’s passing
• Applying big-business insights to small-business growth
• Redefining success beyond revenue: purpose, family, freedom
• Masculinity in leadership—strength with empathy and honest communication
• Executive presence through emotional intelligence and authenticity
• The entrepreneur’s hero’s journey: failure, resilience, reinvention
