Are You an Artist or an Entrepreneur? with Miki Agrawal

from The Mothers with Sara Brown · host Backline Media

Miki Agrawal has built four companies. She has disrupted pizza, periods, bathrooms, and diapers. She has written two books, raised millions, and scaled brands that changed how people think about the most intimate parts of daily life.And she has no interest in building that way again.Miki is the founder of WILD, THINX, TUSHY and most recently HIRO Technologies. She is a serial entrepreneur who sees herself, first and foremost, as an artist. What's striking about this moment in her life is not what she's built. It's the questions she's asking now: What if building didn't have to come from pressure? What if a company could grow the way nature grows – not by force, but by flourishing?In this conversation, we get underneath the resume and into the shift beneath it – the difference between building from urgency and building from alignment, what it took to dismantle the version of herself that "worked," and why she's investing as much in her inner landscape as her outer one.We also talk about motherhood and the particular kind of cracking open that happened when her son Hiro was born. How unconditional love rearranged something in her. How creativity and parenthood feed each other. And what it looks like to hold both a live-wire creative identity and the quiet dailiness of raising a child.This is a conversation about ambition. But more than that, it's about what happens when someone who has already proven everything turns inward – and starts asking what it would mean to build a life, and a company, from that place instead.Mentioned in this episode:- https://mikiagrawal.com/- https://www.thinx.com/- https://hellotushy.com/- https://hirodiapers.com/- https://wildrestaurantnyc.com/- Miki’s recent TEDx talk “How Fungi Can Eat Plastic” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uud-93UQquI*******⭐️ Follow The Mothers and leave a 5-star review if this resonated💬 Share this episode with someone who would love it📱 Join The Mothers on Instagram @themotherspod✍️ Subscribe to ⁠⁠Sara’s Substack⁠⁠ for reflections on life, work, meaning & motherhood💼 Find Sara on ⁠LinkedInThe Mothers is a production of Backline Media.
