In this episode, we sit down with Columbus’s very own Vivek Ramaswamy for an in-depth conversation about his personal and professional journey. We explore his roots, from his parents’ immigration from India to the challenges his family faced when his father unexpectedly lost his job.

We then dive into the beginnings of his ambitious career, including his work in developing FDA-approved drugs that are saving lives today. From there, we discuss the American dream, his entry into politics, his experience confronting “Free Palestine” protesters while defending Israel, his vision for Ohio, and much more.

This episode is not an endorsement but an opportunity to learn from a young and successful entrepreneur—and to draw valuable lessons from his experiences.
