About this audiobook
Q: Can a cartoon cat save the world?
A: It can — if the cat is one of the most downloaded apps of all time, made by a tiny company that grew into a Unicorn — by founders that wanted to protect Earth before it’s too late. Talking cats? Saving the planet? Unicorns? Don’t be fooled. This is not a science fiction book — this is a business book like you’ve never read before.
Based on the true story of a company with world-wide success from the talking cartoon app garnished a billion-dollar exit just seven years after founding. How? By daring to live the balance between the feminine energy of passion and conscious creation and the traditionally masculine energy of the tech scene. This blend between founders Iza Sia and Samo Login is alive on every page. Follow along, play-by-play, as if you had a seat at the table — the night the team formed at the local pub, at the celebrations of record-breaking success, for heart-pounding moments of crushing news and high-pressure negotiations.
Through it all, purpose-driven mission and conscious leadership were essential to inspire a group of propellerheads to achieve the impossible.
FACTUAL. It’s based on a true story, not theory or conjecture. Proof that putting purpose first works. Proof that conscious creation is real. Proof that profit is the natural result from individuals that work together with the right mindset and commitment.
FEARLESS. It’s not afraid to address the unseen and the unspoken between executives and employees: the energy that can either rot an organization from the inside out…. or can spark inner drive and inspiration for efficiencies like never before seen.
7 Unicorn Drive was written to inspire others to have the courage to dream big — but also the courage to look deep into their own lives for the fulfillment that comes with living one’s purpose and values.
Grab your copy and let the inspiration fly.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5By far the most moving Business book. Ever.
I picked up 7, Unicorn Drive because I have dreamed long of building a win-win business that primarily serves Mother Earth and on the way, creates value for whoever connects with us.
Reading this incredibly moving book that focuses more on the WHY of building a business, I felt like the Universe was talking to me and telling me I was on the right track despite the current difficulties.
Dani obviously knows, understands and deeply respects the inside story of Outfit7 - and every word in the book is a testament of Love in some sense. Love between the couple, Love for their team, for the wider circle in all of Earth and a greater Universal Love guiding it all.
I will certainly be revisiting this book, even though it is indelible. Parts are so beautifully expressed, so moving that I found myself sobbing in a crowded lobby. Loved it. An absolute must-read!
