"He wasn't crying because it was his success and his clothes... it was more that he was walking down for the community. That is so important... my ethnicity is very important to me and I'm proud of it."
Today I am featuring my good friend and neighbor, Aaminah Din. Aaminah was studying to become a lawyer in Scotland then decided to take a dream trip to Paris which changed her career trajectory. Being enthralled in the energy of Fashion Week convinced her to start learning and researching everything she could about the fashion industry. She now works at Farfetch, a leading e-commerce fashion/tech company that went public in September 2018 and was named as one of Fast Company's 50 most innovative companies in 2016. It is one of the fashion industry’s only “unicorns” that provides a platform for consumers to buy luxury fashion from boutiques and brands around the world.
In this episode, we discuss how to visualize your goals, networking tips, and the importance on diversity by “doing it for we, not me.” Aaminah also discusses how DJ Khaled has impacted her morning routine and reminds her to be grateful every single day.

"I'm very much drawn to a regret minimization framework. The mindset is, what would you regret more? Trying this and it not working out... or not trying it because you were scared, someone else does it, and they have the success that you should've had for yourself. What would upset you more at the end of the day?"
Ian Panchèvre graduated from Yale University undergrad and was then pre-admitted to both Harvard and Stanford business schools. He chose Stanford where he is studying design thinking, advanced technologies, innovation strategy, and technology entrepreneurship. He jointed Intuit’s Advanced Technology group where he lead its blockchain and distributed ledger technology research. Afterwards, he spent 14 weeks during the summer to travel to Europe on vacation, which soon turned into an entrepreneurial venture helping some of the local artists.
In this episode, we discuss how to remove your personal barriers that prevent you from starting a business or creating something. We’ll also dive into what it’s like to be a part of a blockchain team at a publicly traded company, and how Ian went to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland among the most prestigious world leaders, presidents, and CEOs in the world.
