Whether you stumbled into entrepreneurship or you’ve always known it was your calling, this podcast is for you. Let’s start with what it means to be a reluctant entrepreneur. Many entrepreneurs don’t set out with a grand plan to build a business. Maybe you worked for a company that didn’t value your vision, and one day you thought, “I could do this myself”, that was my story. Or maybe life pushed you in an unexpected direction—losing a job, facing a personal crisis, or discovering a passion that grew into a business. Reluctant entrepreneurs often find themselves starting a business not because they always dreamed of it, but because it was the best—or only—option available. And then there are intentional entrepreneurs. These are the people who’ve known from the start that they were meant to create something of their own.

What if it began with color, confidence, play, and the belief that every child has creative potential waiting to be unlocked? Today, I’m joined by Andrew Ingkavet, founder of the Musicolor Method, author of Superpowers Through Music, and someone whose career has moved through music, media, education, design, composition, and entrepreneurship. Andrew’s path is not a straight line. He went from being an MTV-Asia VJ to becoming an award-winning composer, educator, and founder of a music education system designed to help young learners, including neurodivergent children, connect with music in a more intuitive way. At the center of his work is a simple but powerful idea: music is not just about learning songs. It can build confidence, creativity, focus, and resilience. In this episode, we’ll talk about Andrew’s entrepreneurial journey, the experiences that shaped him, the challenges of turning a teaching method into a business, and why music may be one of the most overlooked tools for helping children discover what they are capable of.
