What happens when you walk away from Harvard Med School, dive into Michelin-star restaurants, and set out to change the wine industry? You get Nomadica—a wine brand that’s rewriting the rules and making fine wine fun, accessible, and cool again.
In this inspiring episode, Kristin Olszewski, the founder of Nomadica, shares her incredible journey from dropping out of med school to becoming a wine mogul.
Kristin saw the issues with the wine industry—too pretentious, too complicated, and definitely not in touch with younger consumers. So she created something that turned the entire industry on its head. With Nomadica, she’s making high-quality wine accessible to everyone, with fun packaging, playlists, and tasting notes that actually make sense.
But before we dive into Kristin’s story, we want to take a moment to address something important. After filming, Kristin’s home was affected by the LA wildfires. While she’s safe, many in the community have lost everything. Kristin’s request? If you can, support Nomadica and donate to help those in need. Every bit makes a difference. If you’d like to make a donation and learn more, click here for vetted fundraising campaigns, and here for more information on the fires.
🎧 Listen now to hear how Kristin turned her vision into a thriving wine brand and why Nomadica is set to revolutionize the industry!
