This week on The Merri-Cast, I’m joined by the brilliant Karl Pontau – entrepreneur and host of The Human Connection Podcast.
Karl’s journey is nothing short of inspiring - from teenage brain tumour survivor to a purpose-driven entrepreneur, podcast host and soon-to-be author.
In this episode, Karl dives into the importance of having a network and forging real human connections, especially in a world increasingly obsessed by data, metrics and AI.
Key insights that Karl shares in this episode include:

  • How his life-threatening experiences as a teenager shaped his attitude toward risk and entrepreneurship.
  • How he discovered the power of storytelling through his passion for creativity.
  • The power of intentional networking and the importance of giving rather than receiving.
  • His passion for his Human Connection Podcast.
