Thursday Jun 05, 2025
In this gripping episode of BizBlend, host Sana sits down with Lyubim Kogan, a five-time immigrant and financial expert who rebuilt his life from scratch after fleeing post-Soviet Ukraine. From arriving in the U.S. with no socks and a dream to training for the Olympics, building a Wall Street career, surviving homelessness, and founding Wings4Heroes—this is a raw, no-fluff conversation about the real cost of entrepreneurship, resilience, and finding purpose through service. If you think you’re starting from nothing, this episode will challenge what “nothing” really means.
