18: Vanessa Dew // Bet On Yourself
Vanessa Dew introduced Health-Ade Kombucha at a farmer's market in 2012 alongside her two best friends, and in the past few years, grew it to one of the fastest-growing brands in the category generating over $150 million in revenue across 30,000 stores like Whole Foods, Target and Trader Joe's.
I love Vanessa's energy and gumption, and appreciate how much she gives back to the community and to other entrepreneurs serving as a USC Marshall Mentor, advising several young CPG companies. Vanessa also happens to be an active member of the Gold Rush family.
Tune in to find out how you can use rejection as a tool for building resiliency, and why your unique cultural heritage serves as amazing perspective.
