How To Make The World Obsessed With Your Products with Cult Gaia Founder Jasmin Larian Hekmat

[@TrishaMock]

Jasmin seems sleepy and bored. I think CG has some beautiful designs, but she's an example of a founder who had the means to outsource every aspect of her business. All she had to do was have an idea, and she had the resources to hire experts to execute for her. She never acknowledged the insanely privileged place she started from. Love this pod but I'd like to hear more stories from founders who had to be scrappy and have a hand in building every aspect of their business.

[@monishadaryanani2360]

AMEN. So so true. It's almost like she's forced to be there for this interview. Doesn't feel authentic and like you said, she's outsourced everything so it's not something that was built by her from the ground up. I'm so with you on this :)

[@MrKatefrank]

It's partly the LA accent (think Kourtney Kardashian) but I also wonder if she's on the benzos. Especially when she said she doesn't remember the "fires" she has to put out lol

[@womanofgold]

Love your podcast and work Grace! I enjoyed this conversation, I would just like to request or "suggest" (unsolicited lol) to possibly insert photos of the specific products she is mentioning in the video, just a suggestion for maybe the next person you interview xx

[@juliannatrure]

Similiar to her I was never good at patternmaking and or sewing, I think it's absolutely so separate to have a brand version vs good at being a seamstress, so I could relate to her story. What I did notice though is it sounds like Cult Gaia's success started with her having a very strong network/knowing the right people and her degree in marketing probably helped her a lot in her process of making it the big brand that it is. Love the brand, & enjoyed this interview very much!

I LOVE this channel - btw I’m a man 41 yrs old! But this is fascinating as I’m self employed!

0:20 my mom had this exact same bag in the early 80’s when I was a little kid (yes I’m old). She bought it at the Aloha Stadium swap meet here in Hawai’i, from a vendor that sold goods imported from the Philippines 🇵🇭. It was made of bamboo, and I always thought it was super cool😎. This woman did not design this bag. I don’t know who did, but this design was in existence long before she was born, and I have the pictures of my mom using it to prove it 🤗.

[@REINVENTION_7]

Important to note. This bag is Asian. I bought a bunch in Bali.

[@ABCClassroom9]

Thank you for mentioning this. This bag originates from pacific/polynesian culture.

[@dianhamilton9953]

Cult Gaia actually sued Michael Kors for copying this bag that they did not invent MK counter sued and had them pay their legal fees!

[@dianhamilton9953]

The guest speaks so slowly and annoying like she was high!!

[@KarianaGrande]

@@dianhamilton9953 hahah - i'm listening on 2x speed and it just makes her pace of speaking feel normal. need 3x for this podcast.

[@demiamodu]

I loved this so much! Thank you both for your amazing insight.

[@jessicahyejin]

I loved everything Jasmin said - she’s a true creative!

[@Miss.A-B]

So relatable because I’m also a very impulsive person and I was judged for it but watching these two successful women makes me feel like I’m not alone and understood.

[@poppygoldstraw761]

I love this episode! It’s nice to have someone who has different views to other guests. My favourite podcast always x

[@ericadesignroom]

This was a very interesting interview. I can see how she was able to take the influence of individualism from the Bratz to Cult Gaia. Consistent uniqueness

[@iamchisquared]

Gosh I really enjoyed this interview! So inspiring, especially from the perspective of a mumpreneur. She is just brilliant isn’t she?

[@alicia.t]

I find her to be very relatable & im so glad I watched this 💕

[@olivia.brinkmann]

love when she said "clarity is kindness"

[@mahabaccouche4215]

Her dad founded brats? I just love this brand even more now!!!

[@petitesideofstyle]

Made me love Cult Gia even more ❤

[@sarahelizabeth1487]

i love her point of views on life in general wow so inspiring

[@Ellie.Mendoza]

this was an amazing podcast ✨

[@ananya9135]

absolutely loved her so many nuggets to absorb

[@anonaccount0]

been looking for this channel. thank you algorithm!

[@mmmic_3263]

I didn't enjoy this guest. Grace nailed it for me, as always asking smart questions and being a great listener. However, I find the guest superficial and while being so incredible nepo baby and privileged, she didn't acknowledge that not even once. In my opinion there is no shame in coming from a more privileged background, but I think it does make a difference being aware of the major advantages you have in your journey trying to succeed (in business, in school, in life etc)

[@Judgement494]

She already mentioned that she grew up around creativity and art. what more do you want from her? What difference would it make in her business if she announced that she acknowledges others not having a privilege; at the same time not doing anything about it. Wouldn’t that be superficial?

[@ABCClassroom9]

@@Judgement494 mentioning creativity and art does not mean privilege and her huge helping hand in life. she skips over this intentionally by saying creativity and art.

[@monishadaryanani2360]

I so agree with you. Nailed it.

[@ConcietedMuchXD]

thank you for leaving this comment, I absolutely do not want to watch overly privileged founders that wont acknowledge it! Big pass.

[@Eshi-b4g]

YOU GUYS SHE IS TALANTED.SUCCESS OF GAIA DUE TO HER TALANT AND DEEP UNDERSTANDING THAT YOU AND ME WANT TO WEAR ,TALENT..AND JEALOUSY OF HER SUCESS I GUES MAKES YOU SOLIERI AGAINST MIZART AND ZERO UNDERSTANDING THAT PEOPLE WONT BUY STAFF FROM ,,JUST PRIVELEGED,, BUT FROM TALENTED SKILLFULL

[@msaliceisalwaysright]

Great episode! Got me curious about the brand more

[@indrepraneviciute3107]

I really enjoyed listening to how this brand was born and the whole story. Jasmin is a very natural and calm person, I love that. It must be so nice working for her xx

[@pardischakavakrahmani1789]

Grace is one of the most amazing podcaster and this interview with Jasmin was just wonderful, keep up the good work!

[@margarettohme7152]

"it was kinda an accident" is the most privileged thing to say lolllll

[@ROSADIANA-DSB]

Love Cult Gaia they just had a sample sale in Dallas❤

[@agprincess4]

Favorite episode yet

[@ilaboghara]

Thank you for sharing ❤It’s an inspiration for many people

[@oliviaaustin1891]

This is my favourite episode to date! Such a beautiful conversation, I love how Jasmin's mind works, she is so wise 🤩

[@thekittyandgiraffe]

She hates people who sell their Cult Gaia pieces on eBay which goes against sustainability because they want to protect their brand image and not have their stuff on a secondhand marketplace but how can she expect customers to continue to support the brand when they have to throw away their pieces instead of contributing to circular fashion and giving someone else a chance to buy their stuff! I LOVE Cult Gaia so you can imagine my shock and upset when they took down ALL of my Cult Gaia eBay listings!

[@MartinPanduh]

Interesting! Do you have a reference for this?

[@aslihankiratli4266]

Dear Grace, I totally understand the psychological bonding, that is done consciously or unconsciously through the voice and that american creaking... but you have such a lovely british authenticity - it's unbearable to listen to, when you do that voice too... please just be you - you're amazing - then listening to both of you, would be a huge joy, because she is lovely and who she is - and you are obviously anyway too ❤

[@Mieklet]

Interesting video, with GREAT questions by Grace! Sad to find out her views on Palestine... guess you can't be to sure about things lol

[@SH-vh1ts]

Great but she is also a billionaire's daughter.

[@icantwiththis]

But it's also interesting to see how far ideas can go when there are no restrictions on resources .

[@X__jbunny__x]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@wsrye249]

Thank you for helping me go to sleep- possibly the most flat, boring monotone voice I’ve ever heard. Literally fell asleep thanks to her voice!

[@celinedavidseen]

Thank u for the video

[@reneez3385]

Great interview

[@jt-mn3rq]

Where are your bracelets from?

[@drapenteng5976]

Love the interview but I feel the host spoke over the guest.

[@georgetown592]

I really want to watch and enjoy this episode but the guest is very draining, tired sounding and just dragging along, its like she doesn't want to be there

[@lishy625]

Hi Grace, Love the podcast but as you’re someone with very strong pro-Palestine views I find it disappointing that you would invite a guest on who has had their products removed from retailers in the Middle East due to anti-Palestine activity on social media…..

[@officialuyinu]

👏👏👏👏

[@YosraHannachi-b3d]

It's so painful to watch or listen to her! Come on, girl, you're a multimillionaire entrepreneur. You can hire someone to help improve your energy level. But still, it's an inspiring story.

[@NaturallyLit]

Beautiful designs, but they fall apart easily.

[@ash.limitlessyou]

This american thing with the voices - isn't it interesting? Or do only I hear it?

[@icantwiththis]

It's called vocal fry

[@ash.limitlessyou]

@@icantwiththis It’s very far from natural 🙏🏻❤️

[@gerganaandonova4897]

embarrassing, this lady can be talanted as a entrepreneur and designer but her comments on the Israel genocide are unacceptable, you are millennial obvi, but keep in mond the new generation demands right values more than anything

Spend $20,000 on a handbag instead of $200 on a Spend $20,000 on a handbag instead of $200 on a H Q D U P S bag. Spending $20,000 on a handbag is worse than spending $200 on a replica #hqdups bag. Then invest the remaining $19,800. The obvious choice, since a $20,000 bag is unlikely to appreciate in value.

[@Achanceywill]

She sounds so sultry

[@YTUser-en3ll]

Boring girl.

[@CronkiteSwanhart]

Thank you for taking time to do the comparison. the quality of the channel *luxdups* is better, I bought it here, and you can ask them to take a photo for confirmation before shipping.
