Spencer loves being an Entrepreneur

The idea for Sokanu came from my grade 12 year in high school. Around the time that everyone was applying to university, I became really curious as to why people were making the decisions that they did. It turned out that a large majority of my class ended up taking very similar degrees at the same university, all for the wrong reasons. I realized that most people make career decisions not based off of internal drivings or intuition, but rather based off bias from other people. We are influenced through peers, parents, teachers and guidance counselors. Each of these parties has their own unique perspective on the world, and smashed together - this is how most people interpret their life. Is this wrong? No - but very often it is not right for optimizing for a career meant for YOU. Sokanu was born out of that thought. It was originally a thought about connecting like-minded individuals on their path to success, but I quickly realized (through the help of others) that this was extremely limiting, and didn't solve the problem at all. My mom (also my co-founder) helped guide the direction of the company towards helping people find what they were meant to do on this planet - and building an entire system optimized for them. This is now the central premise behind Sokanu. Sokanu is a place to find your passion in life. Our mission is to connect every single person with the career that they are meant to be in. We care about three things very deeply: 1. Helping people understand a lot more about themselves 2. Helping people understand a lot more about careers 3. Matching people to their next step in life Most people are born to do something amazing, whether they realize it or not. Our purpose is to help people find what that something amazing is.
