Ever sold your dog for a fat check and got a standing ovation for it?

That’s how Aaron Spivak describes selling the company he built from scratch into a $50M powerhouse.

In this episode of The Liquid Lunch Project, Matt and Luigi sit down with Aaron, the DJ-turned-juice-slinger-turned-weighted-blanket-mogul, to unpack how grit, delusion, and one viral Kickstarter helped him build Hush, one of the top DTC brands in Canada.

He dives into the real emotional cost of selling a business, why customer conversations are his secret weapon, and how Founders Club is helping entrepreneurs get real support.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• The stroke that changed everything…and how a side hustle became a lifeline

• Why Aaron still DJed after hitting $25M in revenue

• The secret power of calling every single customer (yes, really)

• How to turn a blanket into a movement (and a $50M exit)

• What Dragon’s Den taught him about performance, not pitching

• The real emotional chaos of selling your “business baby”

• Why Founders Club isn’t another BS mastermind — and who it’s really for
