About this ebook

“Immigration in America is simple,” said no one, ever.

Here’s why: the immigration laws in America have not been updated significantly in over four decades. The chance of getting picked in the H-1B lottery was less than 10% in 2023. And, there are over a million immigrant workers waiting in a green card backlog today.

Yet, despite these constraints, immigrants have done extraordinary things. With Unshackled, we aim to lower the barrier so you can too.


Unshackled will give you a friendly map of the legal immigration system as it exists today in the United States. Whether you want to start companies, obtain a talent visa like the O-1 and EB-1, or decide that this country is not a fit, the book will be your trusted companion. Through vivid stories and personal accounts, the book also unearths the raw emotions of frustration, loneliness, and self-doubt that underscore every immigrant's journey to remind you that you're not alone. With beautiful illustrations and infographics, Unshackled is as much a treat to your eyes, as it is to your mind. Go on and take a look inside!


When you purchase Unshackled, you get access to the following:

- Guidance to navigate 11 visa pathways, including the O-1, EB-1A, EB-1B, L-1, H-1B, F-1 OPT, and more. We’ve shared insights from some of the best lawyers out there, written in simple, engaging language.

- Stories of 11 high-skilled immigrants, each of whom had walked an unconventional path and remind you that you’re not alone. Expect to tear up at some point!

- Access to free resources on top of the book, including a Notion tracker to build your O-1 or EB-1 profiles, short videos answering top questions around EB-1A, a list of VC funds that support immigrant founders, and more.

- Free invites to all future webinars and events conducted within the Unshackled online community!
