"That's the beauty of working and winning together because you establish friendships and business partnerships that will grow each of our businesses. You know, one of the things that I truly recognize about myself is that I have the personality of a golden doodle. I just want to be loved by everybody. Okay? And I just want to please and make it work. And so when you do partnerships, that's it. So let's work together. Let's win together. Let's have happiness together." — Faraz Siraj, Partnerships Unraveled
