How a Personal Story Became the Fuel for a Startup That Aims to Change Lives
Some episodes are just conversations.
This one stays with you.
In this deeply personal and inspiring episode of Marketalk, I sat down with Dan Bouzaglo, founder of SNOOZE – a startup born from a story that’s anything but ordinary.
Dan shares how a traumatic experience in his childhood became, over time, the very force behind his drive to build something meaningful. It wasn’t a straight line, and he doesn’t try to make it sound easy. What he offers instead is honesty: the real questions, the doubts, the moments of burnout, and the reason he kept going anyway.

- And how real marketing starts with real connection
