In this exciting episode of the Brain Cherries Podcast we interview Eliana Salvi, a serial entrepreneur and author of three books. In 2012 she founded her first startup, Pinktrotters, a social network and community for women travellers. She then transformed it into a non profit association while writing a book on her lessons learned from this experience. She later went on to found another business in the tech and video advertising industry, which she is still running, called COSMIC. 

In this episode she shared what she learned from these different experiences, how she managed set-backs, and her suggestions for aspiring entrepreneurs.
