Spandana Palaypu was only 20 years old when she started her social startup, ZoEasy. Having moved from India to Dubai at 6 years old, she experienced the richness of cultural diversity first-hand. However, she soon realized it was not the same for everyone.
Inspired by the heart-wrenching stories of blue-collar workers she met in the UAE, she decided to build a business that supports workers to find fair employment opportunities.
She was featured on Forbes 30 under 30, Forbes 50 Startups, and is a recipient of the Duke of Edinburgh Award, and her business recently won Expo Live’s Innovation Impact Program.
In this episode 33, Spandana talks about gaining courage to build a business to change the world, and spills the beans on the tactics and mindset that allowed her to take seemingly impossible chances. Gear up to get inspired.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
