Can you believe it? We’ve hit a remarkable milestone – Episode number 200! What an incredible journey it has been, and it’s an absolute honour to have each and every one of you with us.
Four years ago we embarked on this podcast adventure, that’s four years of insights, stories, and valuable lessons we’ve been so blessed to share. These four years have brought us to this special moment, an important juncture where we get the pleasure of celebrating not just the 200th episode, but nearly a decade of growth and success since the inception of our business.
In planning this extraordinary episode, we pondered on what could make it truly special. Then it hit us – let’s make it personal. Let’s bring in the amazing individuals who played a pivotal role in our journey. You see, reaching this milestone wouldn’t have been possible without some very special people – particularly the one we pull into this episode.
Episode 200 allows us to take a moment to reflect on the journey, appreciate how far we’ve come, and look forward to the exciting future ahead. We share stories we’ve never told before and take a look into what truly is ‘Auxano’ through the eyes of some very special people.
So, get ready to meet and celebrate the incredible individuals who have been instrumental in our success. Join us as we honour those who have shaped our path and share this momentous occasion with some of the ones who matter the most. Thank you for being a part of our incredible journey.
