You are not going to believe what this man does for a living!
In a world where you could be anything, what would you be?
Chuck McCarthy decided to become a people walker.
Yes, you read right! He is a professional people walker! Although, he says he's more of a people whisperer than walker.
For R82,00 a kilometer, Chuck will walk and talk with you and most importantly, listen to you! Believe it or not, business is booming. In an interview with The Guardian he said : “I’ve been doing walks almost every single day for the past week and I’m getting repeat clients, which is what you want. I try to listen more than talk, it’s mostly surface, small-talk type stuff. But I think it’s therapeutic even if they’re not baring their souls.”
In a world where we are constantly online, alone and staring at a screen, maybe a human connection is exactly what we need, which opens unlimited new opportunities in the job space for young entrepreneurs like Chuck McCarthy! Who's turning his business into a franchise of sorts and has an app in the works!
