How To Succeed As An Entrepreneur - Kristyn Carriere and Harry Sardinas

How To Succeed As An Entrepreneur - Kristyn Carriere and Harry Sardinas🍫 “Success in the chocolate industry isn’t about making the sweetest bar — it’s about building the strongest foundation.”That statement from Kristyn Carriere, Co-Founder of 7 Summits Snacks, caught me off guard during our recent conversation on the Entrepreneurs Are Leaders Podcast.Because let’s be honest — when most people think about chocolate, they think about indulgence, creativity, flavor, and passion. But for Kristyn, building a thriving chocolate business has been less about what’s inside the wrapper… and more about what happens behind the scenes.💡 It’s about structure. Strategy. Team. Consistency.And perhaps most importantly — a deep love for your craft that fuels you when things don’t go according to plan (and in entrepreneurship, they often don’t).About The GuestKristyn Carriere, BSc Nutrition and Food Science (’09), is a food innovator and entrepreneur with over a decade of experience developing global chocolate brands like Cadbury, Milka, Green & Blacks, and Godiva.
