YAPSnacks: Starting A Business in 2023 | Part 1

When Vishen Lakhiani moved to New York City, he was making $7,500 a month at a company with a difficult, problematic, and even racist culture. After creating multiple streams of passive income and taking baby steps toward his goal of running his own meditation business, he was able to quit his job and eventually scale his company, Mindvalley, to nine figures.
