“I thought to myself, “This would be a big risk if I walk away from corporate America to start my own business right in the middle of a recession,” said Koran Bolden. “Then I thought to myself, “That’s not a big risk at all!” The biggest risk in life would have been to live on this earth full of my God-given talents but allowing them to sit dormant.”
Bolden is one of the 20 honorees under 40 who will be celebrated as The St. Louis American Foundation and Wells Fargo Advisors present the 5th Annual Salute to Young Leaders Thursday (Feb. 19) at The Four Seasons.
Bolden offers more personal insight as part of the special series that will features each of this year’s young leaders on KMOX 1120 AM.
