Owning Your Unique Perspective Isn’t Optional, It’s Required: A Blueprint for Scaling A Transformative Idea The World Has Never Seen with Kameale Terry, CEO & Co-Founder ChargerHelp, #81

Episode Summary

Owning Your Unique Perspective Isn’t Optional, It’s Required: A Blueprint for Scaling A Transformative Idea The World Has Never Seen: A first-generation entrepreneur from South Central LA builds a blueprint for building systems the world has never seen—proving that owning your unique perspective isn’t optional, it’s required.

Episode Notes

To improve the world, we don't need more of the same. We need you—your unique way of seeing, doing, and building things.

In this episode, Kameale Terry, CEO and co-founder of ChargerHelp, shares how to build and lead a business from scratch to transform society despite extreme headwinds:

• America is an idea—if it’s broken, build the missing parts. Your voice is not optional.
• Put your resourcefulness to work when the ecosystem is fragmented, find the backdoor and capitalize on it
• Hire for the real game. Kameale’s first hire? Government affairs, because innovation needed rules.
• Prove the invisible. Pay for the data early → moat, credibility, and sales leverage.
• Design systems where humans win. Pair blue-collar skill with AI to raise wages, not erase jobs.
• Self-care = capacity. Let grief, loss, and doubt sharpen your mission.

Her approach is a blueprint: inner conviction + unique approach to innovation → outer systems change.
If you’ve ever doubted whether your perspective belongs, this conversation will rewire you.
