DeJoria
The story of the American Dream is often told through
fictional stories, a romanticized ideal that anyone
can make it in the land of the free. There are multiple
books written about this ideal, movies squarely based
around characters gunning for that dream, yet one
person that has fully experienced the ups and downs
of living the American Dream is John Paul DeJoria. A
man who was twice homeless and went on to become a
multi-billionaire, a man who suffered loss and utilized
that pain and turned it into success. Much like the
storybooks and movies based on the American Dream,
it’s the journey that is the most fascinating and the story
of a once-homeless single father becoming a world-
renowned entrepreneur and philanthropist is what
makes John Paul DeJoria a true trailblazer.
