#Business - SAKARA LIFE Turns $700 into a Multi Million Dollar Business


 Sakara Life was created by two bff's Danielle DuBoise and Whitney Tingle in 2010 in their New York city apartment with only $700. “I’ve tried every diet,” says DuBoise. She explains how a lifetime of yo-yo dieting culminating with a seven-day ‘water fast’ preceded her ‘rock bottom.’ Tingle’s story is similar, though her decade-long struggle was with cystic acne. With nothing in the market at the time to fulfill their need, they started  an organic meal delivery program based on the science behind a plant-rich, gluten-free, superfood diet, in their Soho kitchen, and delivering them to their initial five clients. They make it clear that they are not vegan, vegetarian or any of the rigid food choice preferences.  There meals are a variety of healthy food choices.  
Six years later, due to the success of the company,  they now have over 85 customers across the US and have snagged a Forbes’ 30 Under 30 title. Kudo's to them, a great motivation indeed, be a risk taker and Just Do It, according to the duo, see interview below. Check em out at Sakaralife.com.  You can also shop their products.
