Chirag Data is the CEO of Seva Senior Services, a multi-service healthcare company providing adult daycare, in-home care, and family caregiver programs for seniors. He has scaled the business from a small family-run operation into a company generating over $7.5 million in annual revenue, with plans to reach $10 million while serving hundreds of clients. His experience spans healthcare operations, Medicaid-based services, and building systems-driven organizations in a highly regulated and underserved industry.

In this episode, we discuss:

• How Chirag scaled a family business into a multi-million dollar operation
• The massive opportunity in the senior care industry and why it’s underserved
• Why most entrepreneurs struggle with delegation—and what the real problem is
• The shift from doing everything yourself to building systems and teams
• How hiring the right people unlocked 35–45% year-over-year growth
• The emotional and mental challenges of entrepreneurship and “building stamina for chaos”
• Why tying self-worth to income leads to poor decisions in life and relationships
• How to think about legacy without creating dependency for the next generation
