Sam Tejada joined Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour to tell the story of building Liquivida, his IV vitamin therapy and wellness company, from a single room into dozens of locations. Sam Tejada started out as a firefighter before shifting into health and wellness entrepreneurship, and he traces his company's growth back to an initial investment of just $500.
From there, the conversation covers the wellness services Liquivida offers — from IV drips to hormone and brain-health testing — along with Sam's broader thoughts on integrative health, business growth, and what it took to scale a health-focused company to nearly 40 locations.
