The final episode shares a founder story that captures what The Jump is all about: seeing a problem, taking the leap, and building something that changes lives.
Meet Cemal Ezel, founder of Change Please, the social enterprise helping people move out of homelessness through coffee.
Cemal shares how he went from City trader to purpose-led founder, why the first version of Change Please did not work as planned, and what he learned about building a business where quality, impact and sustainability all have to matter.
He also talks about receiving a Virgin StartUp loan, being mentored by Richard Branson on Necker Island, and why founders should start small, stay open to feedback and keep moving before everything feels perfect.
For anyone wondering whether to take the leap, this is a powerful reminder: you do not need to have it all figured out to begin.
