Molding Success from Hardship Pt.1 (with The Mulligan Brothers) | Ep 119

Build with Leila Hormozi

“I felt like that environment is not one that is conducive to the future that I want.” Today, join Leila (@LeilaHormozi) as she guests on an interview with The Mulligan Brothers and reflects on her tough upbringing marked by parental discord, her mother's descent into alcoholism, and her subsequent transformation through sheer resilience. She navigates her journey through adolescence, her battles with weight issues, drug addiction, and her multiple arrests, drawing on key lessons she internalized from these experiences. She recalls the role that her father's unwavering support played during her formative years and how she followed his practical, hardworking example to succeed in building her own multi-million dollar businesses. This is part 1 of the interview.

Welcome to Build where we talk about the lessons I have learned in scaling big businesses, gaining millions in sales, and helping our portfolio companies do the same. Buckle up, because we’re creating an unshakeable business.
