Today’s guest is Aisha Tyler—actor, director, comedian, podcast host, and now beverage entrepreneur. You might know Aisha from “Criminal Minds: Evolution” or “Friends,” but these days she’s also the founder of losophē, a line of organic, ready-to-drink cocktails designed to bring the bar experience home. Aisha joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her wildly multi-hyphenate career and why she’s always chasing the next challenge. She shares how her love of hospitality—and frustration with lackluster drinks at home—led her to launch losophē with business partner James King, why she bootstrapped the business herself, and what it’s really like to be a hands-on founder in a crowded cocktail category. They also dive into Aisha’s creative life beyond food and drink, what she’s learned as an entrepreneur, why kindness and resilience are essential in business, and how she balances it all while staying deeply curious.
