I've been obsessed with Summersalt for the past few years, and today, I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with their co-founder, Reshma Chattaram- Chamberlin. She is truly an inspiration with such a positive energy and willingness to get real. In our conversation, we talk about Reshma's background growing up in Bombay, how Summersalt has completely revolutionized the swimwear market, and the highs and lows of building the company.
Throughout the episode, Reshma encourages you to ask for what you want and not wait for opportunities to come your way. She shares her advice for setting intentions rather than resolutions and highlights why it's so important to have a growth mindset as an entrepreneur.
Plus, Reshma offers some strategies Summersalt used during the pandemic to stay adaptable and handle the challenges they faced.
She also emphasizes the importance of considering your unique situation and timing before jumping into entrepreneurship and shares tips for knowing if it's the right path for you!
