For this episode, we invited Aryana Sahai and her mom Kavita Sahai, who are founder of Ladlis, an NGO that helps girls in poverty in India to access education.
Aryana Sahai, an 8-year-old girl from South Florida, took a family trip to India and was devastated by the poverty she saw. She partnered with NGO Ladli (ladli.org), where impoverished girls are taught how to make jewelry, as well as provided with education, medical check-ups, and counseling.
Aryana worked with the young artisans to create the Aroma Collection: a custom, handmade set of bracelets with natural gemstones and one lava stone, which acts as an essential oil diffuser. The bracelets are created to inspire mindfulness, meditation, and positivity.
Aryana brought the gemstone bracelets back to the United States to help fund girls’ education. She purchased the bracelets using her own funds, and the first batch sold out immediately. The sale of every bracelet funds one month of a girl’s education. 100% of the proceeds go to empowering lives and driving freedom.

For this episode, we invited Ricky D**g, an young minecraft instructor for coding at Bay Coding Club based in California. Ricky is an eight-grade student who is going to high school this coming school year. He is based in Fremont, California and he currently enrolled in Honors English, Honors Science, and Accelerated Math as he strives to maintain his academic excellence.
He received certificates on a couple of programming languages like Java, Pathon, HTML, CSS, and he also started to use JAVA to develop mini-games. Ricky participated in FIRST Technology Challenge. He has a big passion in Minecraft, and is determined to turn that into a fun and educational platform for his friends.
For this episode, we invited Kirstie Wang, founder of A Jar of Pickles. A Jar of Pickles is Kirstie’s small side business that she started as an Etsy shop in college. She taught herself how to use Illustrator and Photoshop, and then she designed logos and flyers for various student groups. She loved all the design experience, but she didn’t seriously pursue Pickles nor a career in design when she graduated. Instead, it took quite a few years for she to fully invest in a Jar of Pickles while pursuing a job as a designer.
Now Kirstie still works full time as a product designer but running her side business in her spare time. Wondering how she handles all the daily business details while balance her life with friends and family? Want to know her secret of productivity as a side hustle and an entrepreneur? Let's tune in to hear what Kirstie has to share!
