Episode 39

Disrupting the health industry, finding cofunders and dealing with dark moments | Eliot Brooks, Founder & COO at Thriva. Forbes 30 Under 30

Published on: 25th April, 2022

Eliot is  Founder & COO at Thriva. Forbes 30 Under 30 - European Healthcare, a dear friend and an amazing entrepreneur I admire tons.

We have a warm conversation about his journey building Thriva - a home-based blood testing kits company.

How he managed his energy having a full time job while building Thriva,

  • The story on how we met his cofounders,
  • What were his biggest fears back then,
  • What is his success mindset,
  • How he went about fundraising and much much more!

It is warm, genuine and fun

To keep the spirit of authenticity and real life and startup up hick ups, Eliot got something delivered at home in the middle of the episode… and he so gracefully dealt with it, so I didn’t edit it out

Same, there are two or three hunks that the noise canceling mic didn’t mute, so you get to hear the real sounds of asia!

Love

Moni 💜
