On This Magic Life, a former voiceover actor with a knack for sales shares how he followed his intuition from the bright lights of Hollywood to an e-commerce start-up in a friend’s garage… and how it all led to a once in a lifetime appearance on NBC’s Shark Tank.

That appearance paved the way to a decade-long business partnership with none other than Shark Tank's Daymond John.

Morri Chowaiki, a powerhouse in the world of business and strategic partnerships, joins Andrea for an insightful and inspiring conversation about his serendipitous career journey.

You’ll learn how Morri used his musical theater degree in his business journey and why building relationships and doing things for free, without the expectation of getting anything in return, is the most important lesson he’s ever learned.

Listen to the full episode to hear the story behind Morri’s Hanukkah Tree Topper product and how he tied musical theater and business together during a Shark Tank audition to actually walk away with a deal.

For college students (and anyone!) wanting to break into their dream career, Morri's advice will be a game changer. Plus, find out how a serendipitous phone call while he was in New York City opened the door to Morri’s incredible partnership with Daymond John.
