e049 The Business of Experience with XPR CEO Joelle Parenteau

“Life is about creating and living experiences worth sharing”


Can you build a business around experience? Every now and then, someone comes along that sees the world a little differently.  Joelle Parenteau has built several successful companies based on people’s experiences. In fact, she has taken the concept of providing the customer with an experience, strapping it onto a rocket and blasting it into a whole new orbit.


“When I hear things like ‘that can’t be done’, I see it as a challenge.”


Joelle is one of those founders who doesn't seem to understand the meaning of the word “Impossible”. She says to her it simply sounds like a challenge, and there's nothing she loves more than a good challenge. So much so that she decided to make this the mission of her second startup, XPR: creating access to world-class icons and ultra-rare experiences. Joelle humbly concedes that if she had a superpower, it would be making connections to make things happen.


“Inspired Leadership is about helping the right people connect”


And with her go big or go home mentality she thought what better place to start than the Entertainment Capital of the World itself - Vegas. From playing poker with the pros to a fight night with world champions, exclusive chef's tables and race days with NASCAR pros - she's a pro at making the impossible, possible.


Be inspired with this out of the box thinker, creative entrepreneur, amazing CEO and passionate person. Listen to this 20 minute episode for all the fabulous details.
