Episode 146: The American dream can be defined as the belief that anyone, regardless of where they were born or what class they were born into, can attain their own version of success through sacrifice, risk-taking, and hard work, rather than by chance. The creator of Adina’s Jewels, Adina Kamkhatchi Mizrah, completely embodies this definition and is a true American Dream success story. She joins Natalie to share her incredible story about starting a jewelry company in her bedroom, to leasing three floors of workspace in Brooklyn with 60 employee including her entire family. The two connect over their similar upbringing as both their parents are immigrants and supported their entrepreneurial dreams without question. Adina is overflowing with passion and gratitude and shares her own growth and marketing strategies that have taken her company to the multi-million dollar level. It is likely you have seen her pieces on Ariana Grande, Bella Hadid and Katy Perry and today, you get to meet the woman behind the jewelry.  

 

Adina Kamkhatchi Mizrah grew up in NYC and began designing and curating jewelry in college as a hobby. She quickly fell in love with the world of fashion jewelry and decided to turn her passion into a business. Adina’s Jewels is named after her late grandmother and truly is a family business. With pieces for everyone at a reasonable cost, Adina’s Jewels has grown into a household name and is worn by fashionistas around the world.
