S2-E143 – Hiring Hope: Why MCNZ Group Believes in People, Not Pasts with Ellie Stone
“In this powerful episode of the Champion Mindset Collective, I sit down with Ellie Stone, a biologist turned social entrepreneur and the heart behind MCNZ Group. Originally from Iran, Ellie shares how she went from surviving war and hardship to building a business in New Zealand that offers second chances to former prisoners, recovering addicts, and refugees.
We talk about the raw realities of reintegration, ethical recruitment in industries like construction, and the cracks in our current justice and refugee systems. Ellie and I also explore our shared mission of using business as a vehicle for hope, healing, and human dignity.
Whether you’re passionate about social impact, run a business, or just believe in the power of redemption — this one’s for you.”
