In today’s episode, host Lindsay Pinchuk sits down with special guest Hindi Zeidman, Founder of The Ollie World for an inspirational conversation about the importance of knowing and living by your why.
When Hindi first began fostering her first child Ollie, she was tirelessly searching for the right swaddle to soothe her baby’s needs. After realizing the perfect swaddle was yet to be on the market, Hindi knew that this was her opportunity to make a difference in the lives of babies all over the world. While Hindi was initially turned down at every retail store she approached, she never gave up on her dream. While the last seven years have been a lot of work, The Ollie World has recently earned a spot on the shelves of Target and has developed a cult following as Hindi simply showed up and shared on Instagram.
Tune into this week’s episode of Dear FoundHer… to learn more about the importance of believing in your dream, having a solid team, and understanding your why so you can successfully turn your dreams into a reality.
Quotes
• “It's one thing to have something in your head, but you gotta be able to prove that it's a good product to other people.” (15:13-15:19)
• “On social media, there is now so much pressure to look and post a certain way. But it won’t read as authentic if you're not actually that way, so you have to post from your heart.” (19:35-19:56)
• “There would be days when I would stop at Target and I would walk the baby aisles and I'd tell myself that one day I would be there.” (22:57-23:05)
• “I care about where I'm spending my money. I want to know who the company is, what they stand for when they speak up and when they're silent, what's important to them, and what their values are, and we get to do that at Ollie World.” (29:37-29:49)
• “The most important thing that is going to keep you going from day one until your most successful day is your why. If you don't have a why it's going to be a much longer and difficult pathway.” (39:54-40:12)
• “I am who I am partly because I have a great team around me. I have all of these amazing people that have adopted that why with me.” (41:20-41:30)
• “Never give up on your dreams. Never.” (44:32-44:37)
