Why did Dr. Varish Goyal turn in his white lab coat and join his family’s business? 

Find out on a recent episode of BNY Mellon Wealth Mangement’s Your Active Wealth business owner podcast series. As the president and CEO of a collection of family-operated businesses, Varish explains why he shifted away from a lifelong dream of a career in medicine and joined his family’s business. 

Today, Varish directs the largest gas service operation in California, as well as the bold new convenience store chain Loop Neighborhood. Varish discusses his family’s inspiring immigrant story, the joys and challenges of working with family, how he’s laying the groundwork for future generations, and the three things you need in life in order to succeed.
