How Meditation Can Save Your Life And Make You Wealthy in the Process | Ariel Garten

In this episode of the Millionaire Mindcast, we have an incredible guest, Ariel Garten who shares her amazing entrepreneurial journey as a woman entrepreneur, insights on understanding your mind, and believing the power of your vision, and how she was able to create an affordable product that will make people smarter and save lives!

Ariel Garten is a woman entrepreneur, fashion designer, neuroscientist, psychotherapist, worldwide keynote speaker on technology, mindfulness, and entrepreneurship, host of Untangle Podcast, and Co-Founder and Chief Evangelist at Muse, an award-winning headband that makes meditation easier that are regularly lauded in global media: CNN, Forbes, Popular Science, CNET, CNBC, VentureBeat, TechCrunch, Wall Street Journal Tech and more, for creating what Huffington Post calls "the beautiful headband that will make you smarter".

Entrepreneurship is in her genes. His dad was a real estate entrepreneur who deeply and passionately loves houses. He was the one who taught her the value of being an entrepreneur. Thus, Ariel never worked for anybody else. She understands that she has control over what she wanted to be creating in the world.

Furthermore, Ariel has always been fascinated by how the world and science works. Therefore, she studied neuroscience and worked in a research lab when she was a teenager. She wanted to understand what is going on in people’s minds.  But keep thinking of opportunities to create a business in the world of the mind and the brain.

The mentality is really powerful to her. Ariel never gives up her vision and bet herself she can do it. Until she has found a perfect opportunity to pursue her passion and make it a business journey with Muse. But before that, even with no formal business training, Ariel still managed to draw her own path in the entrepreneurial world. With zero experience in raising capital. Ariel won’t take “NO” for an answer but keep on trying to attain what she wanted.

It was her attitude of being able to put herself out there to build networks, build her brand, the product, and the story that made her entrepreneurial journey productive. Now, with Muse, Ariel impacted millions of lives. Likewise, constantly working on her mission is to uplift women to be kick-ass in business, to mentor beginners, and to contribute to the cutting edge of neuroscience.
