In the latest episode of the Lead with Levity podcast, Dr. Heather Walker sits down with Eric Malka, the visionary co-founder of The Art of Shaving, to explore his remarkable path from humble beginnings to building a multimillion-dollar brand.

The Art of Starting Small

Eric’s journey began in a small kitchen, where he and his wife crafted high-quality shaving products with a simple yet powerful mission—elevate the shaving experience. What started as a passion project quickly grew into a thriving business, eventually catching the attention of Procter & Gamble, which later acquired the brand.

Lessons from the Trenches

Throughout the conversation, Eric shares invaluable insights on entrepreneurship, emphasizing the power of starting small and learning through experience. Some of his key takeaways include:

  • Build a passionate team – Surrounding yourself with the right people can make all the difference.
  • Embrace the process – Success isn’t just about the destination; it’s about enjoying the journey.
  • Know when to let go – Understanding when to step away or pivot is crucial for long-term success.

Redefining Success & Paying It Forward

While financial success is often the focus of entrepreneurship, Eric highlights the importance of redefining success beyond money. Today, through Strategic Brand Investments, he dedicates his time to mentoring and investing in the next generation of entrepreneurs, helping them turn their big dreams into reality.
