In this episode, we sit down with the owner of Champion Pizza, Hakki Akdeniz, as he shares his incredible journey from homelessness to becoming one of the most successful entrepreneurs of our time. With almost 29 million Instagram followers and fans like Mike Tyson and Courtney Cox, Hakki's rise to success is truly remarkable.

We delve into his story in detail, from sleeping on park benches to spending nights in his pizzeria to owning a chain of pizzerias across New York City and Long Island. We also discuss his new documentary, "Hi...I'm Hakki Akdeniz," which tells his story of hard work, dedication, and perseverance.

Hakki's story is a testament to the power of the American dream, and he shares his insights and lessons learned with us. Join us as we are inspired by Hakki Akdeniz, a true champion!
