Overview
We're a team of food-lovers, film buffs, tech geeks, dancers, divers, book worms and lots more. We're good at different things but that's cool because we're growing together Flashback to when Leo won his first Oscar, Pokemon GO was a thing and when we set out on a mission to help people grow. These three phenomenons are completely unconnected but they did happen in the same year. The story of how we started HowNow isn't straight-forward enough to sum up into a few lines and we believe is movie-worthy (although we might be biased). If it ever got made, the log line for the movie would read: a group of unlikely heroes come together to embark on a mission to help people discover the right skills, knowledge and mindset to solve the world's biggest problems.
