Hailing from Minnesota, Troy was a self-described "daydreamer" who defied expectations when he traded a promising engineering career for the world of essential oils. His decision, met with initial doubts from his family, was fueled by an unshakable entrepreneurial spirit.

In 1999, armed with only a few thousand dollars and the unwavering support of his partner, Troy relocated to Southern California with a dream to create Voluspa. What began as a humble kitchen operation—where late-night candle pouring was the norm—evolved into a global brand, with Voluspa candles now sold in over 80 countries. The company’s success stems from its commitment to using premium, natural ingredients and a dedication to elegant design, setting it apart in a market saturated with generic offerings.

Troy’s engineering background proved invaluable as he developed Voluspa’s signature coconut wax blend, a unique innovation that remains central to the brand's identity. Over the past 25 years, he navigated the complexities of scaling a business, from building a team to mastering the e-commerce landscape, all while staying devoted to his family.

Today, Voluspa is a leader in luxury home fragrances, with Troy still passionately steering the ship. His journey from a small-town Minnesota dreamer to a successful entrepreneur is a powerful testament to the importance of pursuing one's passions, upholding core values, and building a business with integrity and perseverance.

His decision, met with initial doubts from his family, was fueled by an unshakable entrepreneurial spirit. In 1999, armed with only a few thousand dollars and the unwavering support of his partner, Troy relocated to Southern California with a dream to create Voluspa. What began as a humble kitchen operation—where late-night candle pouring was the norm—evolved into a global brand, with Voluspa candles now sold in over 80 countries. The company’s success stems from its commitment to using premium, natural ingredients and a dedication to elegant design, setting it apart in a market saturated with generic offerings. Troy’s engineering background proved invaluable as he developed Voluspa’s signature coconut wax blend, a unique innovation that remains central to the brand's identity. Over the past 25 years, he navigated the complexities of scaling a business, from building a team to mastering the e-commerce landscape, all while staying devoted to his family. Today, Voluspa is a leader in luxury home fragrances, with Troy still passionately steering the ship. His journey from a small-town Minnesota dreamer to a successful entrepreneur is a powerful testament to the importance of pursuing one's passions, upholding core values, and building a business with integrity and perseverance. * The Founder Hour is brought to you by Outer. Outer makes the world’s most beautiful, comfortable, innovative, and high-quality outdoor furniture - ALL from sustainable materials - and is the ONLY outdoor furniture with a patented built-in cover to make protecting it effortless.

Born in Illinois but raised in the mountains of Colorado, Taylor grew up snowboarding and enjoying the outdoors with her family. Her mother, a former hairdresser turned stay-at-home mom, instilled in her a sense of creativity and diligence that would serve her well in her future career.

That fateful day at the ranch, a photographer mistook Taylor and her siblings for hired models. Within 24 hours, she found herself shooting her first catalog for Belk. This serendipitous encounter launched her into the world of modeling, a career she hadn't previously considered.

At 14, Taylor signed with IMG Models and began her whirlwind journey in the fashion industry. With her mother by her side, she navigated the complexities of the modeling world, learning to balance work and personal growth.

As Taylor's modeling career soared, she became a familiar face in major fashion shows and campaigns. Her work with Victoria's Secret became a significant part of her journey, participating in their iconic fashion shows and growing alongside the brand as it evolved over the years.

Throughout her modeling career, Taylor found a constant companion in her dog, Tate. This Labradoodle became more than just a pet; he was her soulmate and teacher, showing her the meaning of unconditional love and responsibility. Tate accompanied her to photoshoots in New York, becoming a beloved mascot in the fashion world.

Tragically, Tate's battle with lymphoma opened Taylor's eyes to the gaps in the pet care industry. This experience inspired her to create Tate & Taylor, a company aimed at revolutionizing the pet space. Through this venture, Taylor seeks to blend her experiences in fashion and social media with her passion for pets, creating a platform that offers curated products, educational content, and a supportive community for pet owners.

Today, Taylor continues to balance her successful modeling career with her entrepreneurial pursuits. She's set to return to the Victoria's Secret runway later this year, while also working tirelessly to grow Tate & Taylor.

However, his true passion lay in art, earning him the nickname "art guy" in school as he spent countless hours drawing from comic books. This passion led him to the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), where he discovered industrial design and the work of Charles and Ray Eames. A pivotal moment came when a professor doubted his art project, but Joe secured school funding and proved the professor wrong, showcasing his early entrepreneurial spirit.

At RISD, Joe met Brian Chesky, and he felt an instant connection, believing they would create something significant together. After graduation, Joe moved to San Francisco and convinced Brian to join him, leading to the creation of Airbnb. Faced with skepticism and rejection from investors and law firms, Joe drew on his art background to reframe challenges as opportunities. This resilience paid off as Airbnb became a global phenomenon, changing how people travel and connect.

Joe's journey at Airbnb taught him invaluable leadership lessons and underscored the importance of creativity and innovation. His artistic sensibility helped him approach problems with a fresh perspective, leading to the creation of Samara, a venture focused on reimagining home design. After Airbnb went public, Joe branched Samara out as a separate company, recognizing the potential in the Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) space.

Beyond Airbnb, Joe relocated to Austin, Texas, becoming a minority owner of the San Antonio Spurs and aligning his entrepreneurial pursuits with his passion for sports. Committed to making a positive impact, Joe is passionate about causes such as homelessness and environmental sustainability. He also helped establish the Eames Institute of Infinite Curiosity, reflecting his commitment to fostering creativity and innovation. Joe Gebbia's story is one of resilience, creativity, and a relentless pursuit of dreams, inspiring others to embrace their passions and challenge the status quo.

Max’s journey began in Ukraine, where he grew up in a family of scientists who instilled in him a deep respect for knowledge and discovery. After his family relocated to Crimea to escape the fallout from the Chernobyl disaster, Max discovered his passion for programming at a young age. With no computer at his disposal, he began teaching himself to code by writing programs on paper.

In 1991, Max’s family moved to the U.S., settling in Chicago. It was here that he found his footing at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, a pivotal moment that set the stage for his future success. Immersed in the early internet scene, Max’s path eventually led him to Silicon Valley, where a chance meeting with Peter Thiel at Stanford’s lecture halls sparked the creation of what would become PayPal. Initially conceived as a secure way to store and transfer encrypted data, PayPal evolved into a groundbreaking online payment system that transformed the way we conduct financial transactions.

Max takes us through the early days of PayPal, sharing stories of tackling complex challenges like document encryption and fraud prevention. But his entrepreneurial journey didn’t stop there. He went on to found Slide, and later Affirm, a company dedicated to providing honest financial products that align with consumers' best interests. Throughout the conversation, Max discusses his guiding philosophy of HVF—hard, valuable, and fun—and how it shapes his approach to building companies that aim to make a positive impact on the world.

We also explore Max’s thoughts on the future of technology, exploring AI's potential, the evolving landscape of fintech, and the importance of aligning financial interests with customers. Tune in to uncover the story of an engineer at heart, a visionary leader, and a man who continues to shape the future of finance and technology.

Joe's path to success is anything but ordinary, including a career in fashion and modeling that took him to the fashion capitals of Italy and also, accounting.

However, his entrepreneurial spirit led him back to the U.S., where he faced the challenges of launching his own business ventures, including two failed clothing businesses. Interestingly, the second one was Vuori, but not the Vuori we know today.

In this episode, Joe shares a fascinating story about a random encounter with a lady who predicted his future life and business success with uncanny accuracy. This bizarre yet prophetic moment set the stage for Joe's next steps.

Around that time, Joe took up yoga. When he developed a passion for it, he saw a gap in the market for high-quality, versatile men's activewear that seamlessly transitions from workouts to casual wear. This insight catalyzed Vuori, a brand known for its premium, innovative apparel embodying the active California lifestyle.

Joe talks about the significant milestones in Vuori's growth, including a $45 million investment from Norwest Venture Partners in 2019 and a staggering $400 million investment led by Softbank in 2021, which catapulted the company's valuation to $4 billion.

Beyond the numbers, Joe delves into his core values of clarity, well-being, and the power of the mind, emphasizing the importance of community and how Vuori aims to bring people together. He also shares his belief that "product is everything" and how this philosophy drives every decision at Vuori.

Tune in to hear Joe Kudla's incredible journey, the lessons he's learned, and how he's building a brand that stands for more than just clothing.

]]> Tue, 30 Jul 2024 07:00:00 +0000 hello@thefounderhour.com (Joe Kudla, Patrick Tanahan, Nerses Aposhian) http://www.thefounderhour.com Joe Kudla is the visionary founder and CEO of Vuori (pronounced VEE-YOUR-EE), a brand that's redefining activewear. Joe's path to success is anything but ordinary, including a career in fashion and modeling that took him to the fashion capitals of Italy and also, accounting.

However, his entrepreneurial spirit led him back to the U.S., where he faced the challenges of launching his own business ventures, including two failed clothing businesses. Interestingly, the second one was Vuori, but not the Vuori we know today.

In this episode, Joe shares a fascinating story about a random encounter with a lady who predicted his future life and business success with uncanny accuracy. This bizarre yet prophetic moment set the stage for Joe's next steps.

Around that time, Joe took up yoga. When he developed a passion for it, he saw a gap in the market for high-quality, versatile men's activewear that seamlessly transitions from workouts to casual wear. This insight catalyzed Vuori, a brand known for its premium, innovative apparel embodying the active California lifestyle.

Joe talks about the significant milestones in Vuori's growth, including a $45 million investment from Norwest Venture Partners in 2019 and a staggering $400 million investment led by Softbank in 2021, which catapulted the company's valuation to $4 billion.

Beyond the numbers, Joe delves into his core values of clarity, well-being, and the power of the mind, emphasizing the importance of community and how Vuori aims to bring people together. He also shares his belief that "product is everything" and how this philosophy drives every decision at Vuori.

Tune in to hear Joe Kudla's incredible journey, the lessons he's learned, and how he's building a brand that stands for more than just clothing.

Ken built the first brewhouse by hand in Chico, California after scouring salvage yards and defunct dairies to find the tanks, pipes, and valves he needed. The original brewhouse, which still exists today, first brewed a stout but was quickly followed by the Pale Ale that would change the course of American craft brewing and inspire countless brewers to explore the curiosities of hop-forward beers.

Today, Sierra Nevada is highly regarded for using only the finest quality ingredients and has set the standard for craft brewers worldwide with innovations in the brewhouse and in its sustainability efforts. The pioneering spirit that launched Sierra Nevada now spans both coasts with breweries in Chico, California and Mills River, North Carolina. Sierra Nevada is famous for its extensive line of beers including Pale Ale, Hazy Little Thing®, Torpedo® and a host of seasonal, specialty and limited release beers.

But as a longtime eczema sufferer, she couldn’t even enjoy the best part of working in the beauty industry: trying out all the products!

Even the clean alternatives were super expensive or too clinical, like they were coming straight from the doctor’s office. Amy saw this white space as an opportunity and set out to create Tower 28, a beauty company inclusive of all skin tones, skin types, budgets, and beauty philosophies.

Tower 28 is the first beauty brand that’s 100% clean, vegan, and free of every known skin irritant. Everything is rigorously dermatologist and allergy-tested (formulas adhere strictly to the National Eczema Association’s guidelines).

]]> Amy Liu | How a Battle with Eczema Led to Tower 28 Amy Liu, Patrick Tanahan 01:12:52 For over 15 years, Amy Liu worked as a beauty executive at some of the fastest-growing prestige companies, including Smashbox, Kate Somerville, and Josie Maran Cosmetics. But as a longtime eczema sufferer, she couldn’t even enjoy the best part of working in the beauty industry: trying out all the products! Even the clean alternatives were super expensive or too clinical, like they were coming straight from the doctor’s office. Amy saw this white space as an opportunity and set out to create Tower 28, a beauty company inclusive of all skin tones, skin types, budgets, and beauty philosophies. Tower 28 is the first beauty brand that’s 100% clean, vegan, and free of every known skin irritant. Everything is rigorously dermatologist and allergy-tested (formulas adhere strictly to the National Eczema Association’s guidelines). *** CHA-CHING! Customers are rushing to your store.

As a maverick in health science and biotechnology entrepreneurship, Dave made history by selling the first product online—a caffeine-related item—from his dorm room, earning recognition in Entrepreneur Magazine. Battling health challenges at 28, including cognitive fog and pre-diabetes, Dave embarked on a transformative journey, losing over 100 pounds, rejuvenating his health, and even boosting his IQ.

He coined the term "biohacking," now in the Merriam-Webster dictionary, and founded The Bulletproof Diet. Named "Father of Biohacking," Dave invested millions to advance human potential, hosting the world's premier biohacking conference. His work has been featured in major publications and Forbes recognized his company as one of the world's most innovative brands.

Dave's mission is to elevate human well-being, "one cell at a time," through groundbreaking initiatives like 40 Years of Zen, a neuroscience-based transformation program attracting global elite participants.

From an early age, he harbored a passion for growth and risk-taking, wanting to be a farmer when he was 4 years old. While not a farmer in the traditional sense, Marc's entrepreneurial journey mirrors the same principles of cultivating and nurturing ideas into successful enterprises.

Marc has founded and sold several companies, notably Jet.com, which was acquired by Walmart for $3.3 billion in 2016, and Diapers.com/Quidsi, acquired by Amazon in 2011 for $550 million. In 2021, he founded Telosa, a proposed $400 billion futuristic city he envisions to be a model for urban living with a focus on innovation, sustainability, and quality of life. In the same year, he also launched Wonder, recently raising $700 million to build curated food halls offering a diverse selection of top chefs and restaurants nationwide.

Marc's approach to entrepreneurship emphasizes building mission-driven cultures, prioritizing customer value, assembling exceptional teams, and empowering them to achieve ambitious goals swiftly. His evolution from "mercenary" to "missionary" reflects his transition from pure profit-driven ventures to a deeper commitment to fostering startup ecosystems and guiding fellow founders through the challenging startup landscape.

Marc is also the owner of the Minnesota Timberwolves and Minnesota Lynx basketball franchises, along with partner Alex Rodriguez. Driven by a desire to push boundaries and support the next generation of entrepreneurs, he continues to inspire and empower others with his wealth of experience and strategic insights into building successful businesses.

As the founder and inventor, Curt pioneered a unique flash-freezing process in 1987, transforming ordinary ice cream into tiny, flavorful beads. This innovative approach not only created a delightful new way to enjoy frozen desserts but also opened up a whole new market in the ice cream industry. Despite initial skepticism, Curt’s persistence and vision propelled Dippin' Dots to success, earning it a place as a beloved staple at theme parks, stadiums, and malls globally.

With his entrepreneurial spirit and determination, he continues to inspire aspiring inventors and entrepreneurs alike, proving that with creativity and perseverance, even the most unconventional ideas can become a sweet success.

In 2016, after his time at Dippin’ Dots, Curt started a new company called 40 Below. Using the same freezing process as Dippin’ Dots, 40 Below takes classic food and beverage items and elevates them into unique, novelty snacks using cryogenic technology. Brands include frozen coffees, teas, whey proteins, as well as, margarita, strawberry daiquiri, and piña colada mixers.

Jonathan and his co-founders and fellow Georgetown classmates Nathaniel Ru and Nicolas Jammet started Sweetgreen in 2007, opening their first location in Georgetown, DC, just three months out of college. The trio were disappointed with campus food options. Their vision is to be as ubiquitous as traditional fast food, but far more transparent and honest.

Sweetgreen raised its initial $375,000 of startup funding from investors including the three founders' parents, Joe Bastianich, Seth Goldman, and Washington's Latino Economic Development Center. In 2013, it accepted a $22 million investment from Revolution Growth, a venture capital fund founded by Steve Case.

Sweetgreen's corporate headquarters moved to the Los Angeles area from Washington, D.C. in 2016. As of September 2023, it had 221 stores in operation in 18 states and the District of Columbia.

Tune in to the episode to learn about Jonathan Neman's story and how it led to Sweetgreen.

Join us as we delve into the setbacks and triumphs, learning about the failures that shaped him and the pivotal moments that led to convincing Bill Gates and Microsoft to venture into the fiercely competitive world of video game consoles, challenging Sony's dominance with the PlayStation.

This is a conversation not only about the birth of Xbox but also about the resilience, vision, and evolution of a true entrepreneurial spirit.

In this episode, we have the distinct honor of sitting down with a true pioneer of conscious business, John Mackey, the visionary founder of Whole Foods Market.

Imagine a time when the term "organic" wasn't part of our daily lexicon, and health food stores were few and far between. John’s journey began in the 1970s when he and a group of like-minded individuals embarked on a mission to bring wholesome, natural foods to their community. Their small, unconventional vegetarian store in Austin, Texas, was the birthplace of what would become a revolution in the grocery industry. With passion, resilience, and a commitment to their values, they turned that humble store into the thriving global phenomenon we now know as Whole Foods Market.

In this episode, we'll dive deep into John’s upbringing and the incredible founding story of Whole Foods – a story of daring innovation, the pursuit of a higher purpose, and a relentless dedication to quality. Join us for an enlightening conversation with John Mackey as he shares the highs, lows, and pivotal moments that defined his entrepreneurial journey and transformed the way we eat and shop for good.

The biggest fortunes aren’t made on Wall Street. They’re made way before startups hit the stock market. Consider Mike Walsh, a name just like any of ours who invested $5,000 into Uber. And that investment money? It grew to a staggering $24,827,400!

Our guest, Paul Orfalea, isn't just any entrepreneur; he's the brilliant mind behind Kinko's, a company that redefined the business services landscape. Paul founded Kinko's in 1970 with a simple idea and a $5,000 loan. What began as a small copy shop in Isla Vista, California, grew into a global phenomenon with over 1,000 locations worldwide before being acquired by FedEx for $2.4 billion in 2004.

Throughout our conversation, we'll delve into the fascinating details of Paul's incredible journey. From his early days printing term papers for college students to navigating the challenges of scaling a business, Paul's insights are invaluable. He's not only a successful businessman but also a college professor and a passionate advocate for education and philanthropy, founding the Orfalea Foundation to support children and families in need.

The biggest fortunes aren’t made on Wall Street. They’re made way before startups hit the stock market. Consider Mike Walsh, a name just like any of ours who invested $5,000 into Uber. And that investment money? It grew to a staggering $24,827,400!

With Howard Marks, co-founder of the gaming giant Activision at the helm, StartEngine and its 1.7 million users have fueled startups with over $1.1 billion. This is no longer just an investment platform, but an investing revolution.

]]> Michael Fuerstman | Elevating Hospitality to an Art Form with Pendry Hotels Michael Fuerstman, Patrick Tanahan, Nerses Aposhian 01:06:24 Michael Fuerstman is the co-founder and creative director behind the iconic Pendry Hotels. Before establishing himself as a force to be reckoned with at Pendry, Michael's journey was interwoven with the tale of Montage International. Alongside his father Alan, he played a pivotal role in the growth and success of Montage, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to excellence and innovation in the industry. Now, as the driving force behind Pendry Hotels, Michael has once again proven his knack for crafting experiences that transcend the ordinary. His unique blend of creativity and business acumen has redefined luxury accommodations, merging contemporary elegance with authentic local charm. In this episode, we delve into Michael's extraordinary path – from his early days helping shape Montage International to the heights of co-founding and creatively directing Pendry Hotels. Join us as we uncover the insights, challenges, and inspirations that have molded Michael Fuerstman into the trailblazing entrepreneur he is today. Tune in and get ready to embark on a journey of innovation, passion, and entrepreneurial wisdom. * The Founder Hour is brought to you by Outer. Outer makes the world’s most beautiful, comfortable, innovative, and high-quality outdoor furniture - ALL from sustainable materials - and is the ONLY outdoor furniture with a patented built-in cover to make protecting it effortless.

OLIPOP has way less sugar than traditional sodas. Vintage Cola only has 2 grams of sugar compared to the 39 grams in a regular Coca-Cola. But it doesn’t stop there.

In 2006, Anne saw a need for creating a way to generate more personalized information so that commercial and academic researchers could better understand and develop new drugs and diagnostics. The result was 23andMe, which provides genetic testing for individuals curious about their ancestry and genetic makeup.

It was named "Invention of the Year" by Time Magazine in 2008, and in 2013, The Fast Company named Anne “The Most Daring CEO.”

We spoke with Anne all about her upbringing and the story of how 23andMe came to be.

Over the last 30 years, Steve has built his eponymous company into one that is worth over $3 billion. But, as some of you may already know, he almost lost it all at one point after spending 2.5 years in prison for his involvement with the infamous Stratton Oakmont scandal that was portrayed in “The Wolf of Wall Street.”

We had a super interesting discussion with Steve about his life and upbringing, what inspired him to become a fashion designer, his takeaways from prison and the first thing he did when he got out, why he wrote his book “The Cobbler,” and much more.

Steve’s entrepreneurial career began in 1985 when he co-founded America Online (AOL). Under Steve’s leadership, AOL became the world’s largest and most valuable Internet company, helping to drive the worldwide adoption of a medium that has transformed business and society. AOL was the first Internet company to go public, and in 2000, Steve negotiated the largest merger in business history, bringing together AOL and Time Warner in a transaction valued at $350 billion. To facilitate the merger, Steve agreed to step down as CEO when the merger closed.

Following his departure from AOL, Steve founded Revolution, a DC-based investment firm with three funds that support the startup life cycle at every stage while focusing on backing companies based outside of Silicon Valley.

At a basic level, an NFT is a digital asset that links ownership to unique physical or digital items, such as works of art, real estate, in-game items, music, or videos. Some of the most popular NFT projects include CryptoPunks, Art Blocks, Bored Ape Yacht Club and CryptoKitties, with more and more launching every day.

In this episode, we sit down with Roham Gharegozlou. He’s the founder and CEO of Dapper Labs, the team behind CryptoKitties, Cheese Wizards, NBA Top Shot, Flow Blockchain, and more, and an early pioneer of the NFT movement. Formed in February 2018, Dapper Labs was spun out of Axiom Zen, a venture studio that Roham launched, to bring the benefits of decentralization to the first billion consumers through the power of play, fairness and true ownership. The company recently raised a funding round of $250 million at a $7.6 billion valuation.

We covered a ton of topics including Roham’s upbringing and early career, how he fell into crypto and NFTs, why he created CryptoKitties, his vision for the future, and much more.

We spoke with Jon about his upbringing and what he was interested in as a kid, his passion for writing and why he loves it so much, deciding to forgo a medical career after college and working on Wall Street, how the idea for Betterment came about, why he decided to step down as CEO in late 2020, and what he’s up to now. We also settle a highly debated issue and a question we were dying to ask Jon - is it finance or FINance?

To round out this insane year, we asked our listeners who their 2 favorite episodes of the year were - and this was one of them! Hope you enjoy!

----

This is the story of Nick Fouquet (pronounced like “bouquet”). He is the founder and designer of his namesake hat brand, Nick Fouquet, mainly known for its unique style and craftsmanship. Nick shares stories from his early days, moving to France with his parents and five sisters until the age of 8. Upon their return to America, Nick went to boarding school, got kicked out of boarding school, eventually graduated high school, and stole his mother’s credit card to travel to Patagonia for 5 months. That trip changed his perspective and trajectory in life.

After traveling around the world and working various jobs, he randomly ran into a guy wearing a hat in Venice, CA - this is the beginning of Nick’s hat-making days. Nick’s passion and perseverance have led his hats to sit on the heads of countless celebrities, helping accelerate the growth of his brand. His entrepreneurial journey is unlike any other, but the lessons he learned are applicable to all.

Yearning for an alternative to happy hour after work, a daily routine of a New Yorker in the 1980s, Lavinia Errico and her brothers decided to start a fitness club called Equinox. Though money was tight, they managed to barter their way to growing to several locations before ultimately selling the company. Walking away a self-made millionaire, Lavinia fell into depression. Going through an identity crisis, she set out on a journey to rediscover herself and has since dedicated her life to helping others create more mindful, healthy lives.

His grandfather, who shares his same name, was the founder of J.W. Foster and Sons in 1895 and the pioneer of the spiked running shoe as well as the trainer (sneaker).

The story of Reebok hasn’t really been told until just recently when Joe released his new book “Shoemaker” in October of this year. If you enjoy this conversation, we highly recommend picking up the book. It’s available on Amazon as well as the JW Foster Heritage website if you would like a signed copy (link below).

Throughout the episode, we cover some of what Joe discusses in the book but also dive deeper into some of the experiences and insights he’s gained throughout his incredible journey.

During our conversation, we cover everything from Todd’s early days growing up in Washington, being a distance runner and finishing a marathon at age 15, working at Starbucks when they had just three locations, why he wanted to start a coffee business and how La Colombe came to fruition, and the unique approach they took to grow the company and pioneer a whole movement within coffee.

Todd also shares what it was like to be the first person ever to walk across Antarctica on his own, a feat he accomplished in 2008, and how that experience shaped the way he approaches life and business.

This was one of the most interesting conversations we’ve had on the show and Todd’s passion and energy are truly infectious. Hope you enjoy it!

Mayrig, which means “mother” in Armenian, Aline’s native language, is one of Beirut’s most beloved restaurants specializing in authentic Armenian cuisine, which she founded in 2003.

As you may know, the city of Beirut was hit with a massive explosion on August 4th of this year that decimated the city, causing at least 190 deaths, 6,500 injuries, and destroying half of the city’s homes and businesses which left 300,000 people homeless.

Located in the heart of Beirut just 500 meters from the blast, Aline found herself in the middle of an unthinkable situation. With her restaurant completely destroyed, team members severely wounded, and no time to even think about the devastation, she has become a hero in her hometown as she works to rebuild the homes of her employees that were lost and feed 2,500 meals a day to those in need.

In this episode, Aline joins from her hometown of Beirut to share stories about her upbringing, how she became interested in food, building a successful hospitality franchise spanning several countries, and the work she’s doing now to help rebuild all that was lost as a result of the explosion. Her story is truly one of passion, perseverance, and resilience and we hope you take away as much as we did during our conversation.

Born and raised in LA, GT dropped out of high school and started the company at just 15 years old, and over the past 25 years, they’ve pioneered and dominated a whole category of beverages that merely didn’t exist before GT bottled his first kombucha in 1995. Today, the company is worth over $1 billion.

In this episode, we talk to GT about his upbringing and the roles spirituality and faith have played throughout his life, dropping out of high school after going through an identity crisis, his thoughts on the education system in America, how going against the grain and challenging the status quo helped him as an entrepreneur, the multiple signals he received that inspired him to start bottling kombucha, and some of the early challenges he faced getting the business off the ground.

Towards the end, GT also shares what some of his personal aspirations are outside of running his company and how he got into art collecting and architecture.

In this episode, we talk about everything from his upbringing and being a top tennis player in the country well on his way to going pro, how an Achilles injury in college completely changed the trajectory of his life, traveling around the world as a contestant on The Amazing Race and almost winning the $1 million prize, the valuable lessons he’s learned from his successes and failures, the trip to Argentina that sparked the idea for TOMS, why he walked away from the business after 8 years when the company was doing $500M in sales, the toxic side of the public acclaim he had received throughout his career and why he ultimately started Madefor.

The company debuted on the New York Stock Exchange in 2015 and is currently worth about $53 billion.

Jim is also the author of “The Innovation Stack: Building an Unbeatable Business One Crazy Idea at a Time,” where he breaks down what it truly means to be an entrepreneur and build a world-changing business. It’s one of our personal favorite books that we’ve read in a very long time and we wanted to dive deep into some of the concepts and stories Jim shares in the book, so we definitely recommend picking up a copy if you enjoy this conversation.

We talked about everything from Jim’s personal story and how being an outcast at a young age helped him as an entrepreneur, how he got into glass blowing and eventually opened up his own studio which he still runs today, hiring Jack Dorsey as an intern at his first company and how their relationship has evolved, how losing a sale at his studio gave him the idea for Square, the evolution of the word “entrepreneur” and what it truly means, experience vs. naïveté when it comes to innovation, how he literally built the Square reader and went against Apple’s rule and regulations, the meeting with Steve Jobs that never happened, how they went up against Amazon and won, managing fear and staying motivated, and what his definition of success is.

Trevor also opens up about the successes and failures he’s had throughout his career, what inspired him to start Nikola, how he views entrepreneurship as a game of chess, his true feelings about Elon Musk and Tesla, the early challenges Nikola faced, why he decided to take the company public in the midst of a global pandemic, his long-term vision for the company, what he thinks of $NKLA’s current valuation despite ongoing criticism, and much, much more.

Founded in 2016, Embodied is an industry-leading robotics and AI company creating state-of-the-art companion robots to revolutionize human-centric care and wellness by enhancing quality of life for individuals and families.

In this episode, Paolo shares his incredible story of being smuggled out of Iran during the Iranian Revolution in the late 1970s, living as a refugee in Denmark for 15 years and earning his Ph.D. in Robotics, the pressures and challenges he and his family had to deal with as immigrants, falling in love with technology and teaching himself how to code at a young age, where the concept of robotics comes from, starting his first company and selling it to iRobot, being iRobot’s CTO and developing one of the world’s leading technologies for robotic navigation which completely transformed iRobot’s Roomba, the importance of innovating fast, and why he always wanted to be an entrepreneur.

He also shares how the idea for Embodied and Moxie came about, how he and his team stay motivated through uncertainty and complexities, the evolution of robotics throughout his career and what the future of the space looks like.

Stay tuned towards the end as we get a chance to chat with Moxie (available now for pre-order and shipping in late 2020) LIVE on the show to see what it’s all about!

In this super candid conversation, Vicky opens up about what she was like growing up and her early personal struggles and insecurities and why she never fit with her surroundings. We chat about how she got her start on Wall Street as a credit derivatives trader after college, how being at Ground Zero during 9/11 changed her life forever, getting her MBA from Harvard, and how a spontaneous trip to Kyoto, Japan while seeking treatment for her acute dermatitis led to her founding Tatcha in 2009.

We also talk about the importance of her dual heritage as an Asian-American woman, the journey to finding meaning and purpose in her life, hitting rock bottom and choosing to follow her heart, Tatcha’s value system and what makes it different from other beauty brands, being over $500,000 in debt and not paying herself a salary for 10 years, why she ultimately decided to sell the company to Unilever in 2019 for a reported $500M, and much more!

Stay tuned towards the end as the tables turn and Vicky asks Pat and Posh a question about the unifying trait amongst the founders who have been guests on the show!

After being involved with a number of internet start-ups in the 1990s and early 2000s, including a stint at AOL, Glenn started a highly successful real estate career in 2002. In 2006, his fourth full year in the business, Glenn and his team closed over $60,000,000 in real estate almost entirely from online lead generation and was ranked as one of the top 50 teams nationally with Keller Williams. After the downturn in 2008, he and his team developed the first cloud-based brokerage model that uses a 3D avatar-based online office to collaborate and communicate while abandoning the physical bricks and mortar infrastructure normally associated with real estate brokerage. In the last 9 years, since launching with 25 agents, eXp Realty has grown to nearly 30,000 agents in all 50 states and beyond.

In this episode, we chat with Glenn about his upbringing and how he fell in love with technology at an early age, the various jobs he held before starting eXp Realty, what made him a successful real estate agent and salesperson, what inspired him to become an entrepreneur, his thoughts on the current residential real estate market and where he sees it going post-Covid-19, his experience as a public company CEO, and pioneering the future of real estate as well as virtually-distributed work with VirBELA.

In 2020, after seeing several friends fall victim to a series of catastrophic events, such as losing homes to wildfires and hurricanes, Simon decided to launch JUDY, a collection of emergency products to help families better prepare for crisis.

George, a Georgian immigrant, was the first student from the Soviet Union allowed to attend a private U.S. high school without a government sponsorship. He later graduated from Middlebury College in Vermont. George also pursued his other professional passion in politics, helping his native country of Georgia transition to a democracy.

In this episode, George shares stories of his humble beginnings and immigrating to the United States, what he’s learned about entrepreneurship and innovation throughout his career, advice for startups looking to raise venture capital (he’s raised over $300 million), how Airbnb’s founding team helped Shift find their “wow” moment, and the vision for the future of the auto space industry and car ownership in a post-pandemic world.

In this episode, Marc joins Pat and Posh to share stories from his upbringing that helped shape who he is today, how Netflix was born, his experience as the first CEO of Netflix, as well as answering questions submitted by the audience and his thoughts on the coronavirus pandemic as it relates to entrepreneurship and opportunity.

Marc also recalls some of the most pivotal moments in Netflix history, such as the risky shift in focus from selling DVDs to renting, turning down an offer to sell to Jeff Bezos and Amazon in 1998, being passed up by Blockbuster for $50 million, the day the company went public and what was going through his mind, and what ultimately led to him stepping down as CEO.

Tune in for an incredible conversation with Marc about what’s possible when you take risks and have conviction in your ideas and vision, as well as thoughts on leadership, focus, maintaining a positive mindset, and never taking no for an answer.

A little over 3 years ago, Darien met Melanie on a blind friend date. Darien was an architect living in New York, who brought up the idea of an on-demand childcare space with Melanie, a marketing executive. Both women were working mothers who had not found a good solution to childcare.

Darien and Melanie moved to Los Angeles with their families and set out to solve a painful problem in their lives (and the lives of all other working moms). Brella was born.

We spoke with Darien and Melanie about how they got the business going, raising $3 million, how Brella is different than other daycare solutions and how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected their business and its trajectory, as well as the impact it could have on developing children at a young age.

While in middle school, she began modeling and traveling the world to be on runway shows and magazine covers such as Glamour, Elle and Vanity Fair, eventually being discovered by the likes of Calvin Klein and Patrick Demarchelier. She was also one of the 15 original Victoria’s Secret Angels. Her modeling career eventually turned into a career in journalism, as she hosted shows such as Extra, The Big Moment, and Loveline. All throughout, Catherine always had a passion for food, so she decided to go to culinary school and gain experience working at various restaurants.

It wasn’t always easy balancing school and a full-time career, and modeling at such a young age and traveling on her own often had its lonely moments. Being a woman in the culinary scene in the early-2000s also had its challenges.

Shortly after graduating from culinary school, Catherine became pregnant and started a blog for mothers where she posted all the homemade baby food that she had made. Weelicious was born. As the blog grew, Catherine decided to write a cookbook and landed a publishing deal to make her dream into a reality.

Since then, Catherine has written 3 books, including her latest book “Smoothie Project: The 28-Day Plan to Feel Happy and Healthy No Matter Your Age,” and launched a company called One Potato, which is a meal delivery kit for healthy, home-cooked meals designed for the entire family.

Being a woman in the culinary scene in the early-2000s also had its challenges. Shortly after graduating from culinary school, Catherine became pregnant and started a blog for mothers where she posted all the homemade baby food that she had made. Weelicious was born. As the blog grew, Catherine decided to write a cookbook and landed a publishing deal to make her dream into a reality. Since then, Catherine has written 3 books, including her latest book “Smoothie Project: The 28-Day Plan to Feel Happy and Healthy No Matter Your Age,” and launched a company called One Potato, which is a meal delivery kit for healthy, home-cooked meals designed for the entire family.

However, Greg wasn’t always an entrepreneur; in fact, he got a degree from Stanford in Environmental Science and at one point in his younger days, set out to be a musician.

However, when that didn’t work out, a series of fortunate events led Greg to found Odwalla, a supplier of fresh juice and nourishing beverages, which was eventually acquired by Coca-Cola in 2001.

After Odwalla, Greg was involved in several projects, but it was now clear that his background in environmental sciences would become a part of his daily life. Prior to Califia, Greg co-founded Adina for Life Inc., a venture-backed startup focused on building a fair trade brand with a good-for-you, good-for-the-planet mission in the natural beverage category. He did that for 6 years and then founded Califia Farms.

Greg is one of the original plant-based visionaries who believed that bringing high-quality, sustainable products with wholesome ingredients to customers was imperative. Since 2010, Greg has led the company’s rapid growth as an innovative leader of premium, natural beverages that make it easy for consumers to go “plant-powered” and live a dairy-free lifestyle. Steltenpohl’s disruptive approach has made Califia Farms the top-selling, ready-to-drink coffee and almond milk brand in the U.S. natural channel and a household name.

Before her entrepreneurial journey began, Daina found herself working in corporate America for several years after graduating with Master’s degrees in Nutrition and Public Health from Tufts University, all the while having an itch to start her own business.

She finally took the leap after she and her best friend, Vanessa Dew, and husband, Justin Trout, started an “entrepreneur club” to brainstorm potential ideas to pursue. At long last, they decided on selling kombucha - something Daina had been making for many years since her college days - when they stumbled upon the little-known fact that it could help with preventing hair loss. Daina and her new co-founders began brewing batches of kombucha in her apartment, started selling it at local farmers markets, and eventually grew Health-Ade into one of the fastest-growing brands in its category.

In 2020, the company will sell close to 5 million cases, generating over $150 million across 30,000 stores. Tune in to experience Daina’s story of perseverance, grit and ensuring success against all odds.

Baldoni was born in Los Angeles and raised in Oregon. He spoke to us about his soccer and track career in high school, which ended after an injury. Then, he was a radio DJ at a local top-40 radio station in Oregon. He decided to move back to Los Angeles and while moving into a new apartment, he met a manager who advised him to pursue a career in acting. 

As a devout practitioner of the Bahá'í Faith, he speaks of his purpose and what drives him in life and business. 

As an entrepreneur, Baldoni co-founded Wayfarer Entertainment—a cause-driven media studio focused on creating content that highlights inspiration, unity, and the power of human connection. Furthering its goal to create projects that are a benefit to humankind, Baldoni recently secured a $25 million development production fund to produce premium social good content.

In addition to developing projects from ideation through release, Baldoni created the dinner conversation series, Man Enough, which dives into traditional masculinity while focusing on topics like body image, relationships, and fatherhood. He spoke about his own journey with masculinity and his thoughts on redefining “manhood.”

He is the founder and designer of his namesake hat brand, Nick Fouquet, mainly known for their unique style and craftsmanship. Nick shares stories from his early days, moving to France with his parents and five sisters until the age of 8. Upon their return to America, Nick went to boarding school, got kicked out of boarding school, eventually graduated high school, and stole his mother’s credit card to travel to Patagonia for 5 months. That trip changed his perspective and trajectory in life.

After traveling around the world and working various jobs, he randomly ran into a guy wearing a hat in Venice, CA - this is the beginning of Nick’s hat-making days.

After discovering her deep connection with scent at a young age, Jeni set out to make a difference in the world through the power of ice cream. As she grew her business and expanded into new territories, she was overcome with several difficult challenges including a listeria-related recall in 2015 that almost crumbled her life’s work.

Since then, Jeni’s is bigger than ever, in over 40 “Scoop Shop” locations and 1,500+ groceries and markets nationwide.

Prior to Rhone, Nate worked for and consulted with some of the biggest technology and entertainment properties in the world including Cisco, the NFL, Legends, FanVision, and Sport Radar.

In this episode, Nate joins Pat and Posh to share his story of growing up in Connecticut and always having an entrepreneurial bug in him. His father was a successful business executive in the world of sports (former GM of the Utah Jazz and CEO of NBA International) and Nate always felt pressure to be a success as well, in his own way.

While in college, he started a technology company which was a mobile app that allowed fans in a stadium to order food directly from their seats, and the company was sold the San Francisco 49ers after 3 years. While selling a company in your mid-twenties may cause people to believe you’ve reached a point of massive success, Nate ultimately felt like a failure. Things just hadn’t worked out the way he had planned and he was eager for more.

After a brief stint working for the NFL, Nate left his job to launch Rhone. He had seen a gap in the men’s activewear and lifestyle category and was on a mission to create a brand that made an impact. He also noticed that the behavior of men was changing when it came to their relationship with clothing, and he was compelled to do something about it.

Today, Rhone is one of the fastest-growing brands in the activewear category and is the #1 men’s brand sold at Equinox and Peloton.

During this conversation, Nate also sheds light on the valuable business lessons he’s learned throughout his career, what takes an idea from zero to one, the pros and cons of being an entrepreneur, fundraising, “athleisure” vs. performance lifestyle, and the challenges as well as benefits of Ecommerce vs. Retail.

They are most known for publishing restaurant reviews and guides, and as creators of the hashtag #EEEEEATS. In 2018, the company acquired the Zagat rating company from Google.

Chris grew up in Denver and found his way into the music industry after a stint in college radio, working in promotion and marketing for 12 years at Atlantic Records alongside massive acts such as Skrillex, Coldplay, Matchbox Twenty, Bruno Mars, and Santigold.

In 2009, he had an idea to launch a food blog with his now partner, Andrew Steinthal. After some early growth, they both decided to leave their corporate jobs in the midst of their careers to dive into the world of startups. Since then, they’ve grown a loyal community in over 20 cities worldwide and raised millions of dollars in funding (most recently, a $30 million round from Jeffrey Katzenberg’s WndrCo).

In this episode, Pat and Posh hung out with Chris during one of his trips to LA to learn about his upbringing, experience working in the music industry, the early days of launching The Infatuation, and how he’s been able to manage the company’s massive growth. Chris also shares why they acquired Zagat, the parallels between music and business, the lessons he’s learned as a founder and leader, the next wave of innovation in the food industry, and what’s coming next from The Infatuation and Zagat.

Fun fact: The Infatuation was nominated for a James Beard Award in 2014 for writing a review of a fake restaurant called Underfinger!

This episode was originally released on July 14th. To round out 2019, we asked our listeners who their 2 favorite episodes of the year were - and this was one of them! Hope you enjoy!

----

Ashley Merrill is the founder and CEO of Lunya, a company who makes modern, luxury sleepwear for women. Before launching the company in 2014, Ashley was working at a venture capital firm as well as an online media company when she realized there was a gap in the sleepwear market for women.

Born and raised in LA, Ashley attended UCLA for her bachelors and MBA as well as culinary school prior to working as a professional. She officially launched Lunya by accident while in business school literally as she was giving birth to her first child!

In this episode, Pat & Posh sit down with Ashley to hear about her upbringing, the opportunity she sees for Lunya, the challenges she faced growing the company, their approach to marketing, and what the future looks like for the brand.

We also chat about other exciting topics such as the Japanese concept of Ikigai and the impact it’s had on her life and the decisions she’s made, what it’s like being married to an entrepreneur (Marc Merrill, founder of Riot Games, who we had on episode 42!) while raising children and running a successful company of her own, and her advice for other entrepreneurs.

Tune in for an awesome conversation with Ashley!

Before launching Madhappy in 2017, Peiman worked as an investment banker in New York for several months after graduating college but quickly realized he wasn’t on a path that he wanted to go down. Over the holidays, while on a ski trip, he reconnected with a couple of friends from high school and discussed the idea of starting a clothing brand - they decided to call it Madhappy (a catchy name that their co-founder and friend, Mason, had come up with a few months prior).

Since then, the four founders (Peiman, Noah, Mason, and their friend Josh), along with their growing team, have gone on to build an incredible community and a brand that stands for something. They’ve put on pop-ups, thrown massive parties, and sold millions of dollars worth of product. In May 2019, they raised a strategic round of capital from high-profile investors such as LVMH, Tommy Hilfiger, and the founders of Sweetgreen.

In this episode, Pat and Posh hang with Peiman at Madhappy HQ to chat about the early days of starting the brand, the mistakes and lessons they’ve learned, and what’s to come for the growing label. They also discuss the topic of mental health and the personal connection to the founding team, how Peiman maintains his own mental sanity while building the next big clothing brand, and his advice to anyone who’s just starting out in the space.

This week, The Founder Hour is coming to you LIVE from Summit LA19, Summit’s flagship event and the world’s preeminent ideas festival, which went down on November 8-11 in DTLA’s historic Broadway Theatre District!

Pat and Posh start off the episode by doing a quick recap of the weekend’s festivities followed by an insightful conversation with Summit co-founder, Elliott Bisnow, and legendary chef Alice Waters, founder of Chez Panisse and the farm-to-table movement in America.

Summit, founded in 2008, is a global community of today’s brightest leaders. Through a series of invitation-only events, Summit fosters a global community of entrepreneurs, academics, athletes, artists, astronauts, authors, chefs, engineers, explorers, philanthropists, spiritual leaders, scientists, and beyond.

Chez Panisse, founded in 1971 by Alice Waters, is a neighborhood restaurant in Berkeley, CA, famous for its organic, locally grown ingredients and for pioneering California cuisine. Alice, known as the founder of the farm-to-table and slow food movement in America, also started The Edible Schoolyard Project in 1995 which has led the national movement to transform the health and academic experience of students in America and advocated for a sustainable, delicious, free lunch for every student.

In this episode, we cover everything from the vision behind Summit as well as Chez Panisse, building communities and widespread movements, fast food vs. slow food, and what can shape the next generation of food consumption.

These are just a few of 300+ pro athletes that Leigh Steinberg, founder of Steinberg Sports & Entertainment, has represented throughout his 45-year career as a sports agent.

Growing up in LA, Leigh attended UC Berkeley in the late 1960s during the historic Free Speech Movement era. While a dorm counselor, he met Steve Bartkowski, who was the starting quarterback for the UC Berkeley football team and would later become the #1 pick in the 1975 NFL Draft (Steve Wozniak, co-founder and creator of Apple, was also a student on his floor).

Leigh, fresh out of law school with zero professional legal experience, was asked by Bartkowski to represent him and the rest is history. Leigh went on to negotiate the largest rookie contract in NFL history for Bartkowski and has successfully negotiated over $3 billion in contracts ever since. He was also the real-life inspiration behind the movie, Jerry Maguire, starring Tom Cruise and Cuba Gooding, Jr. ("SHOW ME THE MONEY!").

In this episode, Pat and Posh sit down with Leigh to hear the incredible story of how he pioneered the sports agent world and was able to represent such successful talent across several sports, his approach to finding the right athletes to represent, the massive successes as well as setbacks he’s faced throughout his life, and the accomplishments he’s most proud of.

He also shares his thoughts on the parallels between sports and life, athletes as today’s biggest influencers, advice for those who are looking to have a successful career as a sports agent, and the nationwide debate around college athletes getting paid.

Growing up in LA, Leigh attended UC Berkeley in the late 1960s during the historic Free Speech Movement era. While a dorm counselor, he met Steve Bartkowski, who was the starting quarterback for the UC Berkeley football team and would later become the #1 pick in the 1975 NFL Draft (Steve Wozniak, co-founder and creator of Apple, was also a student on his floor). Leigh, fresh out of law school with zero professional legal experience, was asked by Bartkowski to represent him and the rest is history. Leigh went on to negotiate the largest rookie contract in NFL history for Bartkowski and has successfully negotiated over $3 billion in contracts ever since. He was also the real-life inspiration behind the movie, Jerry Maguire, starring Tom Cruise and Cuba Gooding, Jr. ("SHOW ME THE MONEY!"). In this episode, Pat and Posh sit down with Leigh to hear the incredible story of how he pioneered the sports agent world and was able to represent such successful talent across several sports, his approach to finding the right athletes to represent, the massive successes as well as setbacks he’s faced throughout his life, and the accomplishments he’s most proud of. He also shares his thoughts on the parallels between sports and life, athletes as today’s biggest influencers, advice for those who are looking to have a successful career as a sports agent, and the nationwide debate around college athletes getting paid.

OSEA is a line of high-quality, naturally sourced skincare products that are also vegan, gluten-free and biodegradable.

Jenefer, the visionary behind the company, originally came up with the formulations for OSEA’s products in the 1980s while she was a spa director, but the discovery of seaweed as an active ingredient in skincare dates back to her grandparents. After realizing the massive benefits it had for her clients, she and her daughter Melissa decided to team up and officially launch the company in 1996.

In this episode, Pat & Posh sat down with Jenefer and Melissa to learn about their origin story, the journey to building a successful skincare business, their approach to creating high-quality consumer products, and the lessons and challenges they’ve experienced along the way.

He is also the founder of C.J. Boyd’s, Free Play, and Baste, a streetwear brand.

Before opening Otium, Timothy was the Chef de Cuisine at Thomas Keller’s The French Laundry in Napa Valley. He was also the winner of The Final Table, an American reality cooking competition show on Netflix, in 2018.

In this episode, we sat down with Chef Tim on the rooftop deck at Otium to chat about his upbringing, experience working at The French Laundry, what he learned and the pressures that came with it, and what ultimately inspired him to create Otium. We also learn about his insane work ethic, behind the scenes of running a restaurant, and how a little bit of persistence can go such a long way.

This was one of our best conversations yet and, whether or not you’re into the food scene, we can all learn and draw inspiration from Chef Tim’s incredible story of taking the unconventional path to become a successful entrepreneur. Tune in!

Born and raised in Orange County, Shelby and Sandy were best friends growing up and both had an undying passion for painting and drawing. Influenced by their parents’ interest in art, they always knew they would end up in the creative field.

When they decided to go all in on their craft in 2013, they took advantage of Instagram’s growing platform and quickly gained attention from high-profile celebrities and collectors who wanted a piece of the action. Since then, they’ve created art for Zac Efron, Nick Cannon, Bradley Cooper, Lucy Hale, and David Dobrik (to name a few) and collaborated with countless brands.

In this episode, Pat and Posh hang out with Shelby and Sandy at their creative studio to learn about their upbringing, early days of working together, their approach to creating, and where they see themselves headed to next. They also discuss the future of art, what their day-to-day looks like, and what makes them work so damn well together.

Don’t miss this incredibly interesting conversation with the artist duo who’s making some serious waves and only getting started!

Before starting Hoorsenbuhs in 2005, Robert was part of the Hollywood scene, first as a photographer and eventually an actor. After realizing the industry wasn’t for him, he decided to venture off on his own but didn’t quite know what he wanted to pursue. After experimenting and creating the prototype for his first ring, he was approached by a woman at a Starbucks who noticed it on his hand and was interested in a custom piece just like it. He made his first sale that day for $3,000 and the rest is history.

Growing up in Chicago in the 90s, Jeff was the “art kid” and always had a passion for creating. He majored in Illustration in college and had a deep interest in what was happening in pop culture, citing Michael Jordan as his biggest idol. This would eventually lead to the inspiration behind his art.

Before going in full-time on Ikonick in 2016 with his partner, Mark Brazil (hear his story on Episode 41!), Jeff was working various jobs as a graphic designer but ultimately hit a wall in his career. After noticing the wave of digital art and the rise of Instagram as a distribution platform, Jeff taught himself how to use Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop and the rest is history.

Today, he’s amassed over 500,000 followers on Instagram and has partnered with the likes of Gary Vaynerchuk and Scooter Braun to help grow Ikonick to become a global, household brand.

In this episode, Pat & Posh hung out with Jeff in their brand new DTLA office to hear about his upbringing, breaking into the art scene, meeting his co-founder Mark, and the moment he realized Ikonick was on its way to becoming a successful business.

We also chat about Jeff’s approach to creating, how he has maintained his killer instinct and optimism through difficult times, finding your purpose, what success means to him, and what’s in the works for himself and Ikonick. He also shares what the owl symbol represents for him and why he’s just not into the traditional art gallery.

Joymode lends you everything you need to have the experiences you want - from everyday activities to unforgettable moments. Their slogan is “Do More, Own Less” and, since their launch in 2015, they have been responsible for providing countless experiences to their members in Los Angeles, with plans to expand to other major cities soon.

Joe grew up in Las Vegas and went to the University of Miami for Computer Science, but didn’t end up graduating although he had more units than what was required (tune in to hear why!). After school, he worked various jobs but quickly found himself in a dark place following the “Dotcom Boom” and eventually the housing market crash. During that time, he built and sold Klout, which gave users a 1:1 score of how influential they were on social media and worked with massive brands to promote their products - pre-influencer days!

In this episode, Pat & Posh hang out with Joe to hear about his upbringing, the journey of building Klout and Joymode, the difficult challenges he’s faced along the way, and the bet he and his company are making on the future of ownership.

Before getting into the food and hospitality business, Arman was an actor and comedian who also created videos on Vine and YouTube. After discovering hot chicken following a visit to Howlin’ Ray’s and being inspired by the concept, the three friends got together and started selling their own out of a parking lot in Hollywood in May 2017.

After just a few days of being open and an EaterLA article, Dave’s quickly became a popular go-to spot for locals and started amassing a large Instagram following. After just 6 months, they moved into their first brick-and-mortar on Western Avenue. Fast forward almost a year later, they have some BIG plans in the making including locations #2 and #3 and a nationwide franchise rollout!

Pat & Posh sat down with Arman to hear about his upbringing, how he met his co-founders, founding Dave’s, and the struggles and successes they’ve endured along the way. We also chat about their vision for expanding the concept, how they plan on scaling the business, and his thoughts on the hot chicken craze in LA.

Ashley Merrill is the founder and CEO of Lunya, a company who makes modern, luxury sleepwear for women. Before launching the company in 2014, Ashley was working at a venture capital firm as well as an online media company when she realized there was a gap in the sleepwear market for women.

Born and raised in LA, Ashley attended UCLA for her bachelors and MBA as well as culinary school prior to working as a professional. She officially launched Lunya by accident while in business school literally as she was giving birth to her first child!

In this episode, Pat & Posh sit down with Ashley to hear about her upbringing, the opportunity she sees for Lunya, the challenges she faced growing the company, their approach to marketing, and what the future looks like for the brand.

We also chat about other exciting topics such as the Japanese concept of Ikigai and the impact it’s had on her life and the decisions she’s made, what it’s like being married to an entrepreneur (Marc Merrill, founder of Riot Games, who we had on episode 42!) while raising children and running a successful company of her own, and her advice for other entrepreneurs.

Tune in for an awesome conversation with Ashley!

Before starting Theragun, Dr. Jason owned a company back home in Utah but realized he was on a path he didn’t ultimately want to be on. At the time, he also went through a divorce, lost his business after being a victim of embezzlement, and had 2 young kids with nothing to his name. He picked up his bags and moved to Los Angeles for chiropractic school, hoping he would discover a new path to success.

After suffering a life-changing motorcycle accident in 2008, Dr. Jason came up with the idea for Theragun and hacked together a prototype of the product at home. Eventually, the business took off after a series of difficult challenges and now offers a revolutionary product that is being used by athletes all over the world.

In this episode, Pat & Posh sat down with Dr. Jason to hear about this story and talk about the multitude of lessons he’s learned throughout his incredible journey to where he is now. This was one of the most interesting stories we’ve heard and we’re so excited to share it with you all!

]]> Mon, 17 Jun 2019 07:00:06 +0000 hello@thefounderhour.com (Pat & Posh) http://www.thefounderhour.com Dr. Jason Wersland is the co-founder, creator, and Head of Performance Development for Theragun, a percussive massage therapy device being used by athletes and people everywhere for muscle relief and recovery.

Before starting Theragun, Dr. Jason owned a company back home in Utah but realized he was on a path he didn’t ultimately want to be on. At the time, he also went through a divorce, lost his business after being a victim of embezzlement, and had 2 young kids with nothing to his name. He picked up his bags and moved to Los Angeles for chiropractic school, hoping he would discover a new path to success.

After suffering a life-changing motorcycle accident in 2008, Dr. Jason came up with the idea for Theragun and hacked together a prototype of the product at home. Eventually, the business took off after a series of difficult challenges and now offers a revolutionary product that is being used by athletes all over the world.

In this episode, Pat & Posh sat down with Dr. Jason to hear about this story and talk about the multitude of lessons he’s learned throughout his incredible journey to where he is now. This was one of the most interesting stories we’ve heard and we’re so excited to share it with you all!

We also talk about his journey as a fashion designer at Levi’s and Reebok, aspirations of pro skateboarding, and how the idea for Rastaclat came about and how he ultimately started selling the iconic shoelace bracelets.

Brent Bolthouse is the CEO of Bungalow Hospitality Group and the creator of Neon Carnival.

Neon Carnival is dubbed “the official afterparty of Coachella”, although not affiliated with the festival, and is considered one of the biggest private parties in the world with Hollywood’s top celebrities such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Drake, Clint Eastwood, Justin Bieber, Rihanna, and Paris Hilton attending in the past.

This year, Neon Carnival is expanding to Stagecoach weekend as well!

Pat & Posh hung out with Brent to catch up and see what he’s been up to in the past year, what to expect from The Bungalow in the future along with some exciting announcements, what sparked the idea for Neon Carnival, and what goes into throwing such a big event.

We also hear from Brent on what he would do if he was in charge of throwing a festival (take notes, Billy McFarland!) along with what he believes is the future of nightlife.

Brent also had a ton of insights and advice to share for anyone who feels stuck and wants to follow their passion in life.

The first episode with Brent, Episode 28, was one of our biggest episodes yet and this one is EVEN BETTER so make sure to tune in!

Neon Carnival is dubbed “the official afterparty of Coachella”, although not affiliated with the festival, and is considered one of the biggest private parties in the world with Hollywood’s top celebrities such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Drake, Clint Eastwood, Justin Bieber, Rihanna, and Paris Hilton attending in the past. This year, Neon Carnival is expanding to Stagecoach weekend as well! Pat & Posh hung out with Brent to catch up and see what he’s been up to in the past year, what to expect from The Bungalow in the future along with some exciting announcements, what sparked the idea for Neon Carnival, and what goes into throwing such a big event. We also hear from Brent on what he would do if he was in charge of throwing a festival (take notes, Billy McFarland!) along with what he believes is the future of nightlife. Brent also had a ton of insights and advice to share for anyone who feels stuck and wants to follow their passion in life. The first episode with Brent, Episode 28, was one of our biggest episodes yet and this one is EVEN BETTER so make sure to tune in!

Before stumbling upon the idea for Tenzo Tea after a Google search for “what is the healthiest form of energy?”, Steve was a volleyball star at UCLA and ended up dropping out of school to pursue entrepreneurship.

He co-founded Tenzo Tea with his friend after trying matcha for the first time and immediately experiencing the impact it had on his life and hasn’t looked back since.

In the last few episodes, Pat & Posh spent time with Steve hearing about his upbringing and starting Tenzo Tea, his thoughts on the culture of Los Angeles, and what he would do on Day 1 if he was CEO of Starbucks.

In this episode, Pat, Posh and Steve play Unlikely Likely, a fun activity where we pair up an existing company with a random product and Steve says how he would launch that product if he were in charge. Tune in for an interesting conversation with some good laughs!

Matt grew up in Washington D.C. and attended the University of Notre Dame to study political science. After realizing he had a passion for business, he decided to forgo going to law school to start a company called Footprint Free.

To further his pursuit of business, Matt enrolled at the University of Virginia for his MBA. In this episode, he shares his experiences and the lessons he learned while going to business school, as well as his thoughts on if it’s a good investment.

His first business ultimately didn’t end up working out so Matt went on to be an early employee at Instacart, working with the team to launch new markets and improve existing ones.

After leaving Instacart, Matt worked at Amazon in Seattle for a brief time before moving to Los Angeles to start AdQuick in 2016.

Matt talks about what inspired the idea for AdQuick, the early challenges he’s had to face, raising his first 2 rounds of funding (investors include Alexis Ohanian’s Initialized Capital and Tony Hsieh’s VTF Capital), and thoughts on the future of advertising.

Wurstküche is a restaurant in Downtown LA and Venice Beach that provides exotic German sausages, delicious Belgian fries, and imported beers. With lines always out the door, it has become a Los Angeles staple for dining over the last 10 years.

Tyler shares the story of growing up in Santa Barbara and coming up with the idea for Wurstküche while in college at USC. He talks about the early growth, the challenges of running a restaurant and bar, and how he was able to raise money to open his first location.

He also shows us how the name is actually pronounced (it’s not what you think…unless, of course, you speak German)!

Since opening, DC Central Kitchen has produced over 35 million meals and helped 1,500 men and women gain full-time employment. 24 years later, Robert left DC and started LA Kitchen.

Pat & Posh had an opportunity to chat with Robert about Anthony Bourdain and his legacy, Jose Andres’ work with Robert, nonprofits and the social issues of the present and future.
