In today’s episode, I have Samia Gore. Samia is an author, wellness expert, CEO and founder of Body Complete RX, a wellness and supplement company. She was a mother of four when she dove into entrepreneurship through developing a social following sharing her message on Instagram. 

With her company, she wanted to address weight management, obesity, cognitive decline, and overall health. Although her company is relatively new, close to 3 years on the market, her flagship product BCRx has garnered over $4 million dollars in sales. She made history because she is the first African American female CEO to ever break significant ground in the male-dominated and highly competitive supplement industry in the United States.

Hustlers, this is girl power right there. Stay tuned to the end of the episode to listen to Samia’s story and how she started and grew her company.

On today’s podcast, I am joined by the founders of East Meets Dress, Vivian Chan and Jennifer Qiao. East Meets Dress is a very interesting company. They are dedicated to bringing more transparency, quality and customization to cheongsam dress shopping. 

A bit of a backstory of the company, while planning her wedding, Jenn struggled to find cheongsam outfits and tea ceremony supplies that were designed with the modern Chinese American woman in mind. The choices seemed to be dealing with sketchy sellers on Alibaba or impatient grannies in Chinatown. She found it hard to celebrate her Asian roots without compromising quality and style. That’s when she decided to start East Meets Dress with her best friend Vivian.

Hustlers nation, it’s an interesting one so stay tuned to the end of the episode to find out more about Jenn, Vivian and East Meets Dress.

Hello hustler nation, on today’s episode I am joined by John Holloway, a serial digital entrepreneur who has founded several websites since 2008. He’s exited two businesses. The first one, a network of affiliate website in the online poker space, the second was an eCommerce project motocrossgear.com - that was acquired by revzilla.com and merged into their current store. For those of you who don’t know, Revzilla is one of the top motocross gear eCommerce websites in the world with more than 4 million visits to their website each month.
 
 That’s apparently still isn’t enough for John. He started another business called noexam.com in 2013 - No Exam is a digital life insurance brokerage. It started off as a traditional insurance agency, but over the last few years they’ve been doing more affiliate marketing and lead generation for the insurance industry.

Hello Hustlers, welcome back to the podcast. Today, I am joined by Brittany Finkle, Founder & CEO of an eCommerce startup called Happily Ever Borrowed, a luxury eCommerce site offering rentable bridal accessories so couples don’t have to go broke for their dream wedding.

So far, her company has rented to over 2,000 brides and counting - and recently, she launched & designed her own collection of veils, jewelry & headpieces.

A little bit of backstory on Brittany, before she started her business, she worked with multiple luxury brands like Saks Fifth Avenue, Ralph Lauren, Hermès (air mess) and Chanel. She definitely has a ton of experience in the high fashion industry so hopefully, we get to learn a thing or two from Brittany in this episode. Stay tuned if you want to find out more.

On today's episode, I have Wednesday & Sky from Two People Studio joining me. These two motion designer love birds are also business partners. Coming from full-time backgrounds, they decided they wanted to run the show and express their creativity in their own terms.

The company was incorporated in 2015 by both of them, wanting to express their passion for design and everything that's fun. From the conversation we had, it sounds like they didn't expect their company to grow bigger (hence the name Two People Studio - they now have a team helping them out). Their mission is to create a healthy community of motion designers that help each other out, promote professionalism in the industry and pool resources to achieve bigger, better things.

I must say this was an interesting episode about the state of the motion design and animation industry in negaraku Malaysia.
