Leah Caplanis - Her journey from a cancer diagnosis to creating the cleanest alcohol on the market.

On today's episode, we are joined by Leah Caplanis, founder and CEO of Social Sparkling Wine, a rising star in the adult beverage industry. We had a fascinating discussion about her journey being diagnosed with cancer at 26 years old and the decisions she had to make at such a young age to fight the disease. Like most challenges in our lives, the diagnoses ended up being a catalyst to find a product to enjoy socially, while doing her best not to sacrifice her health and wellness. We cover a wide range of topics, from growing up in a family of entrepreneurs, being a female CEO in a male dominated industry, and the challenges of growing a consumer product good in a heavily competitive industry.
