In this episode of Stories from Real Life, host Melvin E. Edwards interviews Azgari Lipshy, an entrepreneur who shares her journey from starting her first business at 16 to navigating the complexities of entrepreneurship. Azgari discusses the influence of her family, the lessons learned from early failures, and her passion for helping others launch their own businesses. The conversation explores themes of freedom, success, mentorship, and the importance of taking risks in life.
Today, she’s built and sold multiple companies — and teaches others how to turn ideas into income. But behind the spreadsheets and systems is a deeper story: one of self-belief, burnout, failure, and the quiet strength it takes to start again.
In this episode of Stories from Real Life, Azgari opens up about the moments that shaped her, the lessons that nearly broke her, and the truth about building not just a business — but a life of purpose.
