This is a story about identity, legacy, and what happens when you’re born into a world that was created long before you arrived.
In this episode, I speak with Matteo Borea, an entrepreneur who inherited a family coffee business that began in 1936 - and then spent his life travelling the world, expanding it, reshaping it, and ultimately redefining what legacy means.
We talk about:
- Growing up inside a third-generation family business
- Why Matteo spends most of his life abroad
- What it really means to honour tradition while reinventing it
- The culture shock of global exploration
- The moment he realised he had a calling bigger than the business
- And the human side of heritage, gratitude, and purpose
This isn’t a story about an industry.
It’s a story about a man finding himself across countries, cultures, and generations.
Enjoy!
