Sanjiv chopra biography of barack obama

Two brothers, both doctors, reflect on a remarkable journey from their childhood in newly independent India to their success and renown in Obama’s America.

Throughout this dual memoir, the Chopra brothers insist they are two very different people, and they offer some evidence to support this contention.

Permission To Shine

Hey it’s Andrew, welcome to episode #51. We’ve got a very special entrepreneur today so thanks for joining me.

Daina Trout is Co-Founder and former CEO of Health-Ade Kombucha. She went on to sell the company after growing it to 65,000 stores and nearly $200M in annual revenue. 

She is raw, open, and honest like you wouldn’t expect a CEO to be. It’s one of my biggest takeaways from our convo — ALWAYS BE YOU! 

Daina started the company alongside her husband and best friend. 

Originally starting at the Los Angeles farmers market they experienced rapid growth. 

Daina opens up about the biggest challenges she faced, the pro’s and con’s of starting a company with loved ones, and whether or not she’d do it again. 

She’s now onto her next endeavors, this time in the creative space and she shares her big plans.
