EP 46

Moving on Up as a Kid From the West Side of Chicago

with Rendel Solomon




Matt Story | 5/16/2021


Rendel Solomon, Strategic Advisor to Goalsetter, knew that his studies would be the key to opening doors throughout his life. Through pivotal moments in his journey, he also realized that his full potential could not be measured through individual success and set out to support his family and community to reach their potential as well. Our discussion is filled with so many stories from his begginnings having rock fights in the Chicago neighborhood of West Garfield Park to being mentored by Robert Smith, billionaire tech investor and philanthropist. Listen to hear one of my favorite storytellers share his story of moving on up.
