When life knocks you down, it\u2019s hard to get back up, especially when you live in an oppressive place, your family rejects you for being gay and you\u2019ve broken both your legs.

For real estate entrepreneur Harma Hartouni, things weren\u2019t always in the pink. Although he was born in the US, Harma was taken to live in Iran at a young age, and as a ethnic Armenian and a gay kid he felt he was at odds with the world around him.

Thankfully after serving in the Iranian military, Harma got back to LA and started to feel his oats, or in his case feeling his tabbouleh.
