Creative Innovators with Gigi Johnson

Some guests have a LOT of gumption and energy to create new. Miki is releasing her first album now. But over time, she has launched new companies and created new spaces. Some of the road has been bumpy and some has developed whole new categories that help people's lives.

Guest: Miki Agrawal, Co-founder and former CEO of THINX and founder of TUSHY and WILD

Miki Agrawal is a serial entrepreneur, social innovator, and author. Renowned for her disruptive ventures in taboo categories, Agrawal challenges the status quo and drives cultural change. She is the founder of acclaimed social enterprises TUSHY, THINX, and WILD. Agrawal is also the author of the best-selling books 'Do Cool Sh*t' and 'Disrupt-Her.' Her innovative approach and impact on business and culture have earned her recognition as one of Fast Company's "Most Creative People" and a "Young Global Leader" by the World Economic Forum. Agrawal's ventures have been featured in prominent media outlets, and she is a sought-after speaker on entrepreneurship and creative marketing. What are you most passionate about with your current work? Music has become a potent outlet for me during my transition out of my marriage. It allowed me to express my deepest yearnings, desires, frustrations, and realizations about love. Collaborating with Happie Hoffman and Gene Evaro Jr. was an incredible journey of trust and vulnerability. We explored the fusion of dance music and heartfelt lyrics to create an album that shifts energy and promotes healing. Links:
