Success is never just about luck—it’s about hustle, grit, and a willingness to learn. In this episode of The Lucky Hustle, Samm Marshall and Darren Morris sit down with Akhram Mohammed, a true embodiment of the self-made entrepreneur.

And with Gyfter.co.za launching soon, he’s just getting started!

How does a street-smart hustler turn corporate success into entrepreneurial freedom? What lessons has he learned from decades in tech and business? And what does it really take to build your own path?

Join us for an inspiring deep dive into Akhram’s story—where hustle meets opportunity!
