In his very first podcast interview, Brian Park, Founder of Nabee Socks, Speaks on Business, Travel and Freedom!
RN and Founder of Nabee Socks, Brian Park, studied nursing at Georgetown University and received his Clinical Support Hypnotherapist certification from the Hypnotherapy Academy of America. After working as a nurse in a surgical intensive care unit for 3 years, Brian decided to pursue his dream of entrepreneurship and founded Nabee Socks, a compression sock company with character!
Since that time, Brian has worked hard to make Nabee Socks the most awesome compression socks in the world; cooperating with medical garment manufacturers, creative designers, and medical professionals to continually improve his brand.
Brian also had his first speaking engagement at Wealth & Wellness LIVE, a conference for nurses looking to start a business and get self-care in the process.
Brian’s business has given him the privilege to travel all over the world, recently throughout Southeast Asia, Japan & Turkey, and his business is now on track to gross $500,000 in 2015.
