Eunice created Enlight for everyone to learn about the esports industry. She does this by curating masterclasses from the top leaders in esports, and an intimate community where members have the opportunity to make valuable connections.  She didn't get here overnight though, her experience includes 10+ years at Riot Games and was a founding executive at Cloud9 Esports. She built Enlight because she wished she had a program like this when she was starting out.  I am so incredibly excited for you to listen to this episode!

This week, we stay across the pond, with none other than my good friend Marco AKA "Stallion." I have known this amazing human being since I started my journey creating. He was the first real role model of mine that I told myself "I need to do it as he does." Although our paths are different, I can confidently say I emulate the same hustle.

Marco boasts 21k followers on Twitter, but his most impressive milestone yet has been 50k on TikTok, as he has been hitting it extremely hard. He accomplished making the top 100 in the Faze 5 challenge.

Currently, he is a part of the amazing organization, Karnage Clan. I'll put their site below.
