As a self-proclaimed super snacker he found himself taking his sweet tooth to the next level, and maybe a bit too far during COVID….experiencing weight gain, poor sleep and inflammation due to excess sugar intake. It was through this that he had the idea to create Nebula a chocolate free of sugar, sugar alcohols and artificial sweeteners.  It took him three years of experimenting to develop his treat for today's conscious super snacker - chocolate that delivers the flavor without the sugar.  Launched at the end of 2021, Nebula Snacks started with two zero sugar chocolate bars, a dark and an oat milk chocolate. While many enjoyed the chocolates, there was a plethora of feedback from the crew requesting smaller sizes and exciting flavors. Back to the drawing board, it took nearly a full additional year to create the new Nebula Zero Sugar Added Chocolate Bites!   He invites us all to join the sweet rebellion and fight for a healthier snacking future.    During our conversation we discuss:  Falling into entrepreneurship, his journey into the hustle life, and transitioning from marketing to launching his own chocolate brand  How his late night COVID chocolate binges, a passion for snacking and a spark of an idea and turning it into a business How he balances his time having a full-time job and being the only employee of Nebula snacks  Why he wanted to create a low sugar chocolate that's free from artificial ingredients, which ingredients he uses and the trial and error creating the recipe - how he created the mint flavor is fascinating Gathering customer feedback to define the products and brand  The obstacles he faced in starting a business, embracing a learning mindset to navigate the food industry, and learning how to handle a “no”  The importance of surrounding yourself with likeminded people and how he leans on fellow entrepreneurs for learning opportunities especially around brand building  His future aspirations for Nebula snacks     Use code FIO at checkout at Nebulasnacks.com to receive 15% off.    LINKS:  Follow Nebular on Instagram Nebula Website   Follow Me on Instagram

    This is a week when I'd usually share a solo episode but I had a conversation that I just couldn't wait to let out because it's with my friend Michelle. Michelle and I know each other through our boyfriends who happen to live in the same building.    A few weeks ago, I was scrolling through Tik Tok and came across a post from my friend Michelle. Michelle usually shares fun TikTok's of her boyfriend Jackson (sometimes without him knowing – like when he's sleeping!) but this one was different.    In this one Michelle shared pictures of her life the past 6 months struggling with topical steroid withdrawal.    TSW is XYZ   I knew Michelle was going through something and that it was affecting her skin, but I had no idea the severity of it.  I thought it was so incredibly brave and knew it would help so many people. I saw her a few hours later watching rugby with a group of friends and she told me it had gone viral with over 2 million views and people asking her questions and saying they were struggling too.     As we were chatting about it I realized I wanted to sit down with her to learn more and share her story with others. She was so excited (and nervous to share) but also really wanted to raise awareness about topical steroids and the potential impact that so many people are experiencing but we don't know about.    When Michelle was 16 she went to the dermatologist to treat her eczema and left with a low potency topical steroid - very common for treating eczema. Over the next 10 years, the dose stopped working and she continued to get increased doses to the point where it was 650x the potency of hydrocortisone. 650! And then, it stopped working entirely and her body went into withdrawal.    For 4 months, she was in pain with bruising all over her body, itchy skin, couldn't wash her hair or get into the shower without pain, and was emotionally withdrawn. She couldn't leave her house and if you know Michelle, you know she is so social - always planning with friends and family.     During our chat we talk about:   What topical steroid withdrawal (TSW) is  How she knew that's what she was experiencing and when it happened Her symptoms How it impacted her life Her support system and how critical it has been for her both mentally and physically  Advocating for yourself at the doctor and seeking multiple opinions Gratitude for the little things in life that we often take for granted  How she is working to heal and tackling the journey ahead    Michelle and I both hope that this conversation raises awareness and any one who is using steroids understands the potential risks and advocates for their health.
