Kara Goldin: Stay Curious. Be Unstoppable!

Kara Goldin is my guest today.  As many of you know, Kara is the CEO and founder of HINT Water.  She�€™s also the author of a bestselling brand new book called, �€œUndaunted – Overcoming Doubts and Doubters.�€Â  In the book�€� she tells the story of how she defied the odds and her own fears to start and build HINT, which is the fastest-growing flavored water brand in America. 

By the way, she didn�€™t have elite credentials.  She didn�€™t have insider knowledge.  She didn�€™t have high-level connections in the industry. Oh�€� and by the way�€� as she was starting HINT was pregnant with her 4th kid.  Surprise!!!  But�€� as you�€™ll hear… whenever she faced an obstacle, she wouldn�€™t give up… she kept moving forward�€� she was undaunted.  And that�€™s what she wants for you too!  It�€™s an amazing story�€� and I can�€™t wait to dive into it.
