This book may have come out nearly four years ago, but it is just as needed today as it was in 2020: entrepreneur Kara Goldin’s Undaunted: Overcoming Doubts and Doubters. Kara, who founded the flavored water brand Hint in 2005, calls herself an “accidental entrepreneur,” and founded Hint after a Diet Coke addiction, which—relatable. Kara’s mission is helping people fall in love with healthy choices, and this drove her decision to found Hint and expand it into verticals like sunscreen, for example. On the show today we talk about the importance of a mission, facing our fears, what living undaunted looks like, why she considers herself a disruptor, what she’d add to the book today, four years on, and so much more. I found Kara to be dynamic, passionate, kind, warm, and authentic, and in addition to writing Undaunted and founding Hint, Kara has also worked at TIME, CNN, and AOL; she is a wife and a mother of four kids; she, too, is a podcaster, and hosts The Kara Goldin Show, which I love; and she created The Kara Network as a place for fellow entrepreneurs to reach out and tell their stories as well as provide helpful insight to those interested in following a similar path. This book is part autobiography, part business memoir, and Kara is as real as it gets. Take a listen to our conversation.
