Aishwarya Iyer started Instagram’s favorite olive oil company, Brightland, for her own wellbeing and was inspired to make high-quality olive oil from farms in California more accessible. She didn’t grow up wanting to be an entrepreneur–as a child of immigrants (and an immigrant herself), she valued stability and safety. On today’s episode of The Everygirl Podcast, she talks about finding which career path was best for her, how she revolutionized the way we think of food, and pulling inspo from local artists and fashion companies to create her signature branding. Aishwarya also talks about how she prioritizes wellness with a busy schedule and tips that will impress your guests when entertaining. 

Shiza Shahid is the face (and brains) behind Our Place, the cookware brand responsible for one of Instagram’s most beloved products (the viral Always Pan). But Shiza, who was born and raised in Pakistan, has been an entrepreneur and activist long before Our Place took off. On this episode of The Everygirl Podcast, Josie and Alaina sit down with Shiza to discuss how business and advocacy can (and should!) go hand in hand, and all the lessons she’s learned on her journey.
