Business Jumpstart with DJ Fresh, Featuring Rodney Madura

Loading player...
On this inspiring episode of Business Jumpstart with DJ Fresh, we’re joined by Rodney Maduwa, the 2024 Nedbank Business Ignite Winner and Bambelela Business Award recipient. A powerhouse entrepreneur, Rodney has painted over 2,000 homes and commercial sites across Gauteng and beyond, building a brand defined by excellence and determination.

Rodney takes us through his unexpected journey, starting with his studies in Biochemistry and his graduate program at Nissan. Despite securing a stable permanent position, he felt a deeper calling, a drive to build something bigger than employment could offer. In 2013, as soon as he landed his permanent role, he boldly launched his painting and renovations company, stepping into entrepreneurship with passion and purpose.

He shares the highs, challenges, lessons, and mindset shifts that shaped his path from corporate professional to award, winning business leader.

Tune in for a motivational conversation that proves your career path doesn’t have to define your destiny, your vision does.
