Dorm Room Dream to Reality: Startup Aura Tea Serves Up Health-Conscious Boba and Coffee Inspired by Influencer Culture to the Bay Area and Beyond
Aura Tea is a health and wellness company making better-for-you boba tea and coffee. As a Black, Asian, and female-owned business, Aura Tea defied the odds to explode onto the Bay Area cafe scene, partnering with top local artists Dmac and Nef the Pharaoh, San Francisco 49ers wide-receiver Austin Mack, and other influencers to create a space — and boba — for everyone.
Born in the Berkeley dorm room of Haas grad Kashish Juneja, Aura's health-inspired mission was defined after Juneja gained 30lb in college drinking sugary boba and coffee daily. Wanting to enjoy boba and take back her life, Juneja partnered with MLB draftee Cinque Holliday over the pandemic to make her dream reality. Juneja raised a small seed fund from an investor at a startup she'd previously worked for to open a storefront right across Google and SF's Embarcadero. There, exhausted programmers and drained tourists alike can come together for refreshing, delicious and healthy boba.
Aura Tea offers a variety of drinks, all crafted to be sugar-free, dairy-free, keto-friendly and vegan. Our drinks are sweetened with natural sugarcane derivatives and also, from the inclusion of real herbs, ginger and hemp, contribute to functional wellness, improving autoimmune health, moods and more. We also use the innovative Teaspresso to brew all of our teas to order. Menu highlights include the lusciously blue "Karl the Fog" made with butterfly pea, the velvety "Milky Way" infused with cacao, and the taro-licious "Purple Rain" made rich with coconut milk.
Aura Tea is hosting its inaugural BOBALANDS, a weekend packed with exciting, health-conscious activities from the 22nd to the 24th of July to celebrate its first storefront opening in San Francisco at 121 Spear Street. We will have RnB duo THEMXXNLIGHT, discounted drinks, Bollywood zumba and yoga classes from local coaches, the Auraverse VR experience, a TikTok-inspired drink menu and awesome prizes like local gym memberships and bottle service at some of San Francisco's hottest clubs.
Aura Tea hopes to inspire the future of the already-brewing health and wellness movement with our original and energizing beverage brand. Look forward to our upcoming signature wellness tea series, co-signed by NBA and NFL athletes, filled with electrolytes, antioxidants, and real ingredients and future Aura stores popping up across the Bay Area and beyond.

New Luxury Wine Brand, Juliet, Launches With Sustainability at the Forefront
On a mission to create eco-friendly wines of uncompromising quality and design, Juliet launches its revolutionary brand of luxury boxed wines. Debuting with a 2021 Sauvignon Blanc and 2021 Grenache Rosé, Juliet hails from a Certified California Sustainable Winery in the acclaimed Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara AVA. The wine is housed in a first-to-market cylindrical container deemed the "Eco-Magnum™", which holds two standard bottles of wine (1.5L). Developed by female entrepreneurs with women in mind, Juliet delivers an elevated day-to-day experience for discerning wine drinkers who prioritize sustainability.
Founders Allison Luvera and Lauren De Niro Pipher are longtime friends who share a passion for good wine and a desire to innovate. When the women discovered that glass bottles and their transport are the two largest contributors to wine's carbon footprint, they set out to reshape the category with an unmatched commitment to sustainability. Combining their diverse experience at iconic brands including Perrier-Joüet, Virgin Galactic, and Vogue, the duo brings their rich backgrounds in sales, marketing, and alcoholic beverage to the table. Together, the two entrepreneurs are trailblazing a new space where quality wine aligns itself with a conscious lifestyle, and the concept of elevated boxed wine is brought to fruition at scale.
"We recognized the unmet need for a sustainable wine that didn't sacrifice on quality, taste, or design. Boxed wine offered an eco-friendly packaging solution but hadn't yet reached its full potential, so we took the opportunity to innovate the category with an elevated aesthetic and truly superior wine," commented Lauren De Niro Pipher, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Juliet.
From winemaking practices to packaging, sustainability is at the core of Juliet's mission that paves the way for mindful consumption. The wines are made in a facility that is certified by the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance (CSWA) and packaging is crafted with recycled materials to set the stage for real environmental impact. Juliet is also pioneering the first at-home wine refill system in the U.S. where customers can reuse the paper containers and reorder just the inner wine pouches at a discount.
The Eco-magnum™ is multi-faceted and developed for convenience with superior design. The large format stays fresh for up to 6 weeks after opening and the proprietary, glass-free design with handle is ideal for on-the-go occasions, picnics, the beach, or at home fitting nicely on a refrigerator shelf. The airtight spout provides an "on tap" experience wherever you are, making Juliet a portable and durable choice for day-to-day drinking occasions.
"When we discovered that boxed wine presents an 84% lower carbon footprint compared to wine in conventional glass bottles, we were inspired to act. Juliet is here to reshape consumers' perspectives on boxed wine with a luxury product that not only shifts the culture of wine drinking but sets a new standard for sustainability in the industry," said Allison Luvera, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Juliet.
Juliet's potential has been recognized by key investors, including Jonathan Neman (CEO & Founder of Sweetgreen) and Leora Kadisha Neman, Lauren Bosworth (CEO & Founder of Love Wellness), Dick Costolo (Former CEO of Twitter), Kurt Seidensticker (Founder, Vital Proteins), Brooke Wall (Founder, The Wall Group), and Anderson Family Brands.
The wines are hand-made with quality that begins at the vineyard and carries on from the cellar to the glass. The grapes are first chosen based on terroir and sourced from some of Central Coast California's most renowned AVA vineyards, championing superior quality from the start. The ensuing winemaking style honors the natural excellence of the fruit by utilizing low intervention and zero artificial additives in the process, and the final product contains minimal ingredients which are transparently stated on the label for an entire paradigm shift on conventional bottles. The result is pure expressions of the vineyards, the vintage, and the fruit of the land – better quality that is better for you.
The 2021 Sauvignon Blanc is an old-world style rendition of the varietal with aromas of Meyer lemon, ripe pear, honeydew melon, a hint of grass, and a crisp mouthfeel. The 2021 Rosé is 100% Grenache made in a dry, Provençal style, with hints of bright strawberry, watermelon, and floral notes followed by a subtly spicy yet delicate palate.
Juliet will be available for purchase online and at high-end retailers in New York, California, and Florida for $45.99. For both the store locator and e-commerce shop, visit www.drinkjuliet.com.

Telenician's Utility Token Now Used by International B2B Firms
Telenician Inc. announced today that its crypto token SRVU is now being used by several major companies to enhance invoicing and payment processing with their customers. The token acts as a replacement for fiat currency (cash) in financial transactions. Running on blockchain, the SRVU token lets B2B manufacturers and service providers avoid banking fees and processing delays, especially in cross-border transactions.
This fintech approach allows B2B firms to sell products and services to customers with payment in utility tokens. These tokens can be exchanged almost instantaneously at almost zero cost. The token also provides a hedge against inflation for service providers and clients as it tends to increase in value, making purchases cost less. This “affinity” program essentially gives discounts to customers over time, similar to a grocery store discount card, helping B2Bs acquire and retain customers.
Telenician’s SRVU token lives on the Stellar blockchain. Just a few years younger than Bitcoin, Stellar is the second oldest major blockchain in existence. Stellar is built for fintech transactions and applications. Transactions on Stellar occur in milliseconds and cost just thousandths-of-a-penny each, much cheaper and faster than traditional banking systems or other blockchains.
The token trades on Stellar—symbol SRVU—with a current imputed market cap of about $15 million.
About Telenician
Founded in 2022, Telenician created its signature utility token SRVU early this year. The token is in trials with major international companies, including a manufacturer of construction equipment and a computer chipmaker. These firms are expected to go into production use of the Telenician technology in 2023. Telenician's vision is to create crypto/blockchain tools to improve business processes and functions. The value proposition for early adopters is to see a meaningful increase in financial transaction performance using SRVU and obtain a competitive edge in their respective markets using SRVU.

DrOwl Introduces New Medical Document Upload Feature That Gives Users the Ability to Access and Share Important Medical Documents On-Demand
DrOwl, a HIPAA-compliant medical platform built on patented technology that empowers patients to access, understand, and share their medical records for free, today announced it has launched a new upload feature in its latest mobile app update. The new capability allows users to safely scan and upload documents, including important information not contained in their healthcare records. This makes it easy for users to have a more holistic view of their health and manage and share everything from one simple place.
Launched in 2019, DrOwl helps individuals take greater control of their own health. With DrOwl, users can securely sync their medical records from the VA, Medicare, and thousands of other providers, and receive a customized Patient Portal with information about their specific conditions and medications. Complex medical jargon in their records is translated into easy-to-understand language, enabling users to better understand their health. The new document upload feature allows patients to add medical information that cannot be imported directly from their healthcare providers.
"DrOwl is dedicated to empowering patients with easy-to-use tools that allow them to better understand their health and become stronger medical advocates for themselves and their loved ones," said Arvind Raichur, CEO and co-founder of DrOwl. "Through this new feature, users can supplement their medical records with their own documents to see a more complete picture of their health. Whether an individual needs to keep track of COVID-19 vaccination records, new insurance cards, or advanced medical directives, we believe it is vital to easily and securely store them all in one accessible place so the patient can fully understand diagnoses, tests, and treatment plans to help obtain the best possible medical care and outcomes."
What documents can users upload?
Users can securely and quickly upload documents, such as insurance cards, vaccination records, COVID-19 test results, powers of attorney, medical directives, and other healthcare-related items, by scanning their documents directly into the DrOwl app. Documentation scanned within the app is clear and easy to read, and gives users the ability to safely share the documents on-demand from their mobile devices.
How does the upload feature help users?
Parents—As the start of the new academic year nears, families across the country will be preparing their children to go back to school. For student-athletes, that includes getting full physicals to confirm they are healthy enough to play sports. DrOwl users can now easily scan in vaccination records, insurance information, and required releases, as well as pull in their child's electronic health records (EHRs) from thousands of medical providers. Parents can simply share the information with the schools as needed so that their child will be ready to take the field.
Caregivers—For those who take care of loved ones, having access to an individual's complete medical history is extremely important, especially if he or she is in failing health or has an emergency. DrOwl makes it easy for caregivers to access and share their loved one's medical records, including information on their conditions, current and prior prescriptions, allergies, and other information that is often fragmented across multiple providers. Using DrOwl's new upload feature, caregivers can go beyond medical records and include insurance cards, power of attorney paperwork, medical directive forms, and more. This reduces the amount of time caregivers spend searching, sifting, and hunting for medical documents and allows them to focus on the well-being of their loved ones.
DrOwl is available for free on Android, iOS, and desktop devices. It is a first-of-its-kind tool that empowers users to better understand their health and become their own medical advocates. This makes taking control of their health easier, more efficient and less overwhelming — helping lead to the best possible outcomes for patients, caregivers, loved ones, and their doctors.

Soppycid Launches World's First Magnetic Reusable Water Balloons
After three years of constant testing and refinement, Soppycid has succeeded in eliminating the flaws in the conventional water balloon product. Soppycid also patented the notion of reusable water balloons at this time. These revolutionary new water balloons have entirely re-imagined the splash water balloon and are ideal for families and children who want to have some fun and stay cool on a hot day.
The Time of Traditional Water Balloons Is Over
One con of traditional splash water balloons is that they are single-use products; consumers can only use them once before throwing them away.
This can be wasteful and expensive, especially if consumers have a large group of people to play with. Another con is that traditional water balloons often leak; this can be frustrating and cause consumers to lose water quickly.
Most consumers dread filling water balloons. It is a tedious and time-consuming process that often leaves people feeling frustrated.
Finally, traditional splash water balloons are often made with inferior latex, which makes them more likely to break. This can be a big problem if consumers are trying to have a fun and long water fight. All these factors make traditional splash water balloons less desirable.
Soppycid has now provided a better way.
What makes Soppycid Reusable Water Balloons so Desirable?
The reusable water balloon is made from latex-free silicone, a soft, safe material that can be reused repeatedly. Fill the balloon with water, seal it off with its magnet, and enjoy.
When finished, users can simply rinse the balloon and let it dry. The durable material will withstand many uses, so consumers can enjoy summer splashes for years to come.
Being an eco-friendly product, using reusable water balloons can reduce environmental impact and help save our planet.
Not only is the reusable water balloon eco-friendly, but it is also a great value! Each balloon can be reused multiple times so that you will save money in the long run. Plus, the soft material is safe for all ages, be they kids, adults, or pets, making this a great option for family fun.
Another splendid feature of these reusable water balloons is the magnetic self-sealing feature. This excellent feature makes refilling the water balloons easy and quick for consumers without the need for manual sealing.
Simply fill the balloon with water and close it. The magnetic self-sealing will automatically seal the balloons. All of this will now take only a second, allowing for uninterrupted fun.
This is also a notable feature because this ensures no water leakage.
Water balloons are a fun summer activity for kids. Children can use them in water balloon fights, water gun battles, or play around with them in the pool. If consumers are looking for a great summer gift for the kids, why not get them some reusable water balloons?
The world's first reusable water balloon is sure to make a splash.
Given all the benefits of Soppycid reusable water balloons, it is time to ditch the conventional disposable water balloons and switch to a sustainable, eco-friendly option this summer. So, gather together and have some fun with Soppycid.

Embracing Equity, a national education nonprofit working to ensure every child feels proud of who they are, announced they will bring together educators, renowned speakers, and thought leaders to collectively organize in the face of anti-truth movements, banning books, and surveilling teacher's curriculum.
"My teachers are overwhelmed with emotions in efforts to fill gaps in instruction, social-emotional needs, all while contending with diminished societal perceptions," said Dr. Curtese Holmes, Principal of Hanrahan Elementary School in St. Louis, Missouri. "More than anything else right now, my teachers need hope, healing and community."
Unapologetically Hopeful is the third annual Embracing Equity conference and will be held virtually August 1-2. The past conferences have seen over 1,200 attendees across 14 countries, 47 states, D.C., and Puerto Rico. Ninety-seven percent of conference attendees indicated they were likely or very likely to implement learnings within six months of attending the conference.
"Unapologetically Hopeful is not your standard diversity, equity, and inclusion conference," said Daisy Han, Founder and CEO of Embracing Equity. "We designed this conference to meet the needs of the moment. Right now, we need hope. Attendees will walk away nourished, inspired, and connected as we use our collective imagination to protect and celebrate truth, justice, and equity on behalf of both ourselves and our students. We are going to keep fighting for the future and we're not going to leave any space unchallenged."
More than 1,000 participants representing hundreds of organizations are expected to experience the event including school administrators, teachers, nonprofit professionals, and corporate professionals who support the K-12 education space.
"I am so eager to participate in this conference," said Freedom Reign, teacher at Urban Montessori Charter School in Oakland, California. "Embracing Equity knows how to reach teachers where they are. Their events are well organized, authentic, and impactful. This event is exactly what my colleagues and I need right now as we strengthen our spirit and resolve for the year ahead."
The Unapologetically Hopeful conference lineup of sessions and speakers, presented by leading equity advocates and thought leaders, include:
- What Does It Mean to be an Anti-Racist Organization?
- We Are Unafraid: How We Secure The Truth for Students
- Community Building: Creative Expression for Healing & Justice
Sponsoring organizations include Radical Spark Coaching, Association Montessori International USA, and over 20 schools and school district partners. Sponsors and partner organizations help to make this donation-based conference possible. Individuals and organizations interested in attending, sponsoring, or bringing their whole school to the virtual conference can learn more at: https://embracingequity.org/conference.
Embracing Equity is dedicated to shifting mindsets and creating affirming, equitable and inclusive spaces in education. We are hopeful that when we all band together and play to our strengths we will imagine new possibilities and create a just society.

WizKid CleanPods the Smarter/Clean Solution for Cleaning Products
Produced as its first collection of household cleaning products, WizKid Products releases WizKid CleanPods.
WizKid CleanPods are eco-smart household cleaning products packaged in concentrated, water dissolvable pods. When added to water, they create highly-effective cleaning products made with limited chemicals. Using CleanPods is as simple as dropping the pod into the bottle and adding 24 ounces of water to give a better-for-the-earth cleaning solution.
WizKid CleanPods are available in five formulations for every surface in a home: a glass cleaner, multi-surface cleaner, bathroom cleaner, urine cleaner, and two floor cleaner options designed for use in three gallons of water. Each WizKid CleanPod formulation is designed to keep surfaces cleaner in between cleanings, prevent product build-up, and leave surfaces streak-free.
WizKid CleanPods understand that people want to be as good as possible to this planet we share. However, they also know individuals want to live in a place that is clean and smells good. CleanPods calls this balance between these two needs the Smarter/Clean philosophy. These ideals extend into minimizing the use of harsh chemicals in their line of cleaning products and finding safer combinations that work just as effectively—developing formulations that defend surfaces against the build-up of dirt and grime in-between cleanings, reducing cleaning frequency and the amount of chemicals used in spaces. Additionally, the water-soluble pod system eliminates single-use plastics and the use of commercial-quality spray bottles that are good to use for thousands of sprays, and are 100% recyclable, ultimately reduces the amount of waste that ends up in landfills.
"We are beyond excited to launch a line of household cleaning products made with limited chemicals," Jeff Crevier, CEO and owner said. "When I sat down with our scientists, we looked at different cleaning products on the market and eliminated numerous toxic chemicals that other brands use in their products when creating the formulations for WizKid CleanPods."
Crevier also emphasized that he did not want to charge customers to ship water, which inherently reduces shipping costs for the product. The starter kits come with a commercial-grade spray bottle and a six-month supply of CleanPods. The starter kit for each formulation is available now for $14, and a refill pack is available for $9 at cleanpods.com. There are also two subscription options for the CleanPod refills: a six-month and twelve-month subscription.

New crypto platform Giftcoin to launch first ever "crypto-linked gift card"
Giftcoin, a new cryptocurrency shopping platform, today announced it will launch its inaugural product after receiving initial funding from angel investors. The product is a first-of-its-kind digital gift card whose value is linked to a cryptocurrency rather than a fixed dollar amount, allowing it to increase in value over time. It is slated to be available for public download on the Apple App Store in August.
In just a few clicks, anyone can send a Giftcoin Card to their family, friends, or coworkers that they can spend online or in stores. In the Giftcoin app, they simply select the retailer, the amount, and the cryptocurrency to link it to, and it will instantly be available for use through the Giftcoin app or Apple Pay at checkout. Unlike normal gift cards, Giftcoin Cards are able to gain value as the value of the currency increases, making it the only gift card whose balance can grow. In addition, each transaction itself will be tied to crypto, so users will earn between 1% and 3% "cash back" in crypto for every purchase they make.
Founded in January 2022, Giftcoin's mission is to make crypto fun, easy, and rewarding to use in the real world. Cofounders Justin Lockwood and Bill Rose believe cryptocurrency has thus far been a niche category that largely caters to the investor class, lacking the kind of real-life applications that would enable its mainstream adoption. With Giftcoin, the duo aims to serve the millions of people who want to explore crypto – but who may be intimidated by exchanges, keys and wallets – and make it meaningful in their everyday lives.
"Most of crypto is about investing. What was hailed as a decentralized system that could change finance instead has been turned into a get-rich-quick scheme for crypto bros," said Lockwood, the company's CEO. "There is nothing that exists today that gives people a fun and easy way to give and spend crypto at their favorite stores, so that's what we built. Giftcoin is 'crypto for the rest of us.'"
Only six months after founding the company, Lockwood and Rose have achieved numerous milestones. Apart from completing the first iteration of their product, they've also grown their team to seven people, secured a banking partner, and raised their first tranche of pre-seed funding from prominent angel investors including tech pioneer Keith Teare, executive and entrepreneur Craig Forman, and executive and investor Steve Wadsworth. The company is continuing to actively raise capital to grow and further develop its crypto products.
Giftcoin has also secured a partnership with Solid Financial Technologies, Inc., which will provide additional banking and cards infrastructure support as they continue to build innovative new financial products that bring crypto to the masses.
"After a lot of hard work, we're thrilled to be able to bring Giftcoin to everyone," added Lockwood. "We're grateful to our early backers and partners for helping us reach this milestone."

Former DC Attorney Launches Indie Online Boutique
Former practicing DC attorney Natalie Zink has embarked on her next chapter: the launch of an online indie clothing store called Wild Gardenia Boutique. Based in the DC and Northern Virginia area, the boutique features a collection of indie women's clothing and indie accessories that fashion-minded consumers will love. The indie boutique aims to cater to all women and is size inclusive.
The online boutique offers a compelling take on the traditional ecommerce experience. Wild Gardenia's website highlights how women can incorporate unique pieces into their existing wardrobe, offering suggestions on how to curate inspired looks for brunch, dates, vacations, and more.
"I desired to create a boutique that catered to women like me, relatively young urban professionals who like exploring new places and people," says 30-year-old Zink. "I want to introduce women to statement pieces that they can combine with items already in their wardrobes. I like mixing classic timeless pieces and items with a bit of a twist."
A suite of woman-owned, artisanal brands (among others) make up the boutique's current collection. Shoppers will find beloved brands such as Pinch, Pink Harley, and Jessie Zhao on the site. The owner's favorite piece in the collection is the Daisy Buchanan Romper—shoppers simply must check it out.
Zink, who holds a master's degree in Arabic, left her attorney position in the wake of the pandemic. The uncertainty of COVID inspired the founder to pivot in her career and pursue her true passion: building an online indie boutique that could serve as a creative outlet for herself and women across the region. Based in Washington, DC, the founder will soon relocate to Fairfax, Virginia, where she will continue building her first venture.
"I wanted to create something with my own two hands," says Zink. "I have always loved clothing and used it as a way to express myself. During the pandemic, I realized how much I missed getting dressed up to go to the office or meet up with friends. Wild Gardenia aims to provide women with the ability to express themselves comfortably through fashion and dress in a way that celebrates everyday life."
Women can visit Wild Gardenia Boutique to find inspiration in the way they dress. Through her online store, Zink encourages women like her to be bold, take chances, and live the life they envision.
