Okiki Podcast Episode 27: Alex Carmeli
Alex Carmeli is the queen of building Facebook communities centred around a great mission. In three months she has built a Facebook community of 650 people from scratch called. “ We Build Killer Teams: A Community of Purpose Driven Leaders." She is also the author of two books and like me is a millennial entrepreneur.
This episode was a treat for me to record, because not only was I getting to interview one of my contemporaries, I also gained an accountability partner and friend all the way from Boston. Since March 2020, we have been accountability partners. If you are interested in building a community around purpose and leadership, this is not an episode you will want to miss!

Key Takeaways:
Alex got into entrepreneurship from being a personal trainer, and learning the skills from training fifteen personal trainers and managing 4 to 5 locations and realizing that the skills of leadership and talent management could be applied outside of the the space of fitness.
Coaching is 80% behaviour change and 20% content. It comes down to a change mindset.
The biggest thing you need to do as an entrepreneur is to get out of your own way. Everyone has to start somewhere and it is a matter of just doing it.
The difference between people who are successful and people who aren’t is that successful people are action takers.
She has a long term goal to create a movement, where leaders are building purposeful businesses and taking care of their people.
