I moved to the US in 2007 and was pleasantly surprised and intrigued with the success of the immigrant community. So intrigued, I did my doctoral thesis on South Asian immigrant entrepreneurs and launched this show – to continue feeding my curiosity, and to share these inspiring stories that need to be told.
Now in Season 9, these amazing journeys of success and lessons learned have resonated across the globe generating 10M+ views, 1M+ engagements.
The unique combination of wisdom and hustle that entrepreneurs thrive on is captured in our one line life lessons. Simple yet profound, and often life-changing.
