Kristyn Carriere went from running taste panels at Cadbury and formulating for Godiva to founding her own Canadian chocolate brand. This is what happens when a real food scientist decides to build a CPG company. On this episode, Kristyn Carriere of Seven Summit Snacks joins Phil and Kenny to talk about turning deep R&D experience into a grab-and-go energy chocolate — and why a big-company background changes how you launch. We get into the science of chocolate (conching, flavour optimization, why the same bar tastes different in five countries), the consumer-led product development that got the recipe right in three tries instead of hundreds, and the packaging and branding choices that help the bar stand out in two of the most saturated aisles in the store. Kristyn also shares the deeply personal story that gave the brand its name and brought her back home to Canada. There's a real lesson in here for founders: making something in your kitchen is one thing — knowing the industry, the iterations, and the science behind market fit is what actually moves a brand forward.

Episode 169 with guest Mark "Strings" Stringer, Founder and Chair of PrettyGreen Today's episode explores the leadership and human skills of building genuine diversity of thought within marketing teams and why it matters, including: why teams risk becoming clones of each other, recruiting for diverse thinking, your self-awareness as a leader to build the right teams around you, and why trust and psychological safety creates better work. Joining Abby is Mark Stringer, known to most as Strings, the entrepreneurial force and founder of agency PrettyGreen. With over 30 years of founding and leading successful ventures, Strings is a seasoned expert in building fame for brands and driving innovation. As founder and chair, he has helped the agency and its sister agency, The Producers, work with clients including Cadbury, Under Armour, LEGO, Audible, Hasbro and Nando's and more. Alongside this he runs PrettyGreen +Ventures, which incubates and acquires founder-led companies, and is co-founder and non-exec CMO of B Corp SkootEco and Metropolitan Spirits Key takeaways Diversity of thought is about difference, not just demographics… The value of diverse thinking comes from surrounding yourself with people who think, decide and approach problems differently to you as well as different lived experiences Know your own strengths, then build around them… Strings shares the parts of the job he loves and the parts he's happy to hand over, and how deliberately bringing in people who are strong where he isn't, has been core to building his teams Trust is what lets leaders let go… Strings' mantra of needing to "get out of the room" only works because he trusts the people he hands the baton to, both to deliver and to tell him honestly when something is going wrong Psychological safety turns diversity into better work… Recruiting different thinkers only pays off if people feel safe enough to challenge ideas, call out bias and speak up in the room Building diverse teams takes deliberate action, not good intentions… Strings is candid that believing in "hiring the best people" wasn't enough until PrettyGreen looked honestly at who was actually in the room and set up a dedicated board to force the change through 00:00 — Welcome to the Whole Marketer Podcast 00:36 — Why Diversity of Thought Matters in Marketing Teams 02:55 — Introducing Mark "Strings" Stringer 05:21 — The Big Juicy Question: What Is Diversity of Thought? 07:43 — Finding People Who Love What You Don't 10:01 — Discovering DISC Profiles and Understanding Difference 12:27 — Founding PrettyGreen and Building the Right Partnerships 14:50 — The Impact of Bringing Complementary People Into the Team 17:01 — Learning to Trust and Get Out of the Room 19:21 — Matching Skills and Zone of Genius to the Work 21:41 — Uncovering Hidden Talent Across Departments 24:04 — Why Representation in the Room Matters 26:23 — Confronting the Agency's Own Diversity Gap 28:35 — Advice for Leaders Starting to Build Diverse Teams 30:54 — Knowing Your Superpower and Building Complementary Teams 33:22 — Handling Conflict With Humility and Vulnerability 35:44 — The Shadow and Light of Leadership 38:04 — Surrounding Yourself With People Who Call You Out 40:27 — Career Highs: Celebrating the Team's Work 42:30 — Career Grows: Getting Through the Hard Times 44:48 — Strings' Advice for Marketers of Tomorrow Resources The Whole Marketer 'Define your authentic leadership style' workbook – free download https://thewholemarketer.com/resources/ The Whole Marketer seven-step leadership assessment – free download https://thewholemarketer.com/resources/ Host: https://www.linkedin.com/in/abigailcdixon/ Guest: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/strings About The Whole Marketer The Whole Marketer podcast is here to support and empower the people behind brands and businesses with the latest technical tools, soft and leadership skills and personal understanding for a fulfilling marketing career and life as a whole.

Have you ever finished dinner, told yourself you were completely done eating…and then found yourself searching the cupboard for chocolate, cookies, chips, or anything else you could find? You're not alone—and it may have much less to do with hunger or willpower than you've been led to believe. In this episode of Living Life Naturally, Lynne is joined by life and weight loss coach and Havening Techniques® practitioner Nan Saysana. Nan helps women understand and change the emotional patterns behind nighttime overeating and binge eating. Nan knows the shame and frustration of this cycle personally. She once spent much of her day thinking about what she had eaten, what she shouldn't eat, and how she could finally regain control around food. Lynne also shares her own candid experience of bringing Cadbury chocolate home from England, hiding it in the freezer, and becoming fiercely protective if anyone else dared to touch it. Although humorous in hindsight, the secrecy, guilt, and feeling of being out of control were very real. Together, Lynne and Nan discuss why food urges may be messages rather than the actual problem—and why curiosity and compassion can accomplish far more than criticism. In This Episode You'll discover: Why nighttime eating isn't always caused by physical hunger How pressure, stress, loneliness, and overwhelm can trigger food urges Why food becomes associated with comfort from an early age How guilt and shame can keep women isolated and stuck Why restriction and willpower often fail to address the underlying problem How repeated overeating can affect your trust in yourself Why Nan encourages women to become "curious instead of furious" How thoughts influence emotions, actions, and results The connection between emotional regulation and eating habits How coaching, Havening Techniques®, and hypnosis may be used together A simple way to check in with your emotions throughout the day Why small, manageable changes can create long-lasting results A Kinder Question to Ask Yourself After overeating, it's easy to respond with: "Why did I do that again?" But the tone behind that question matters. Instead of asking from a place of anger, disappointment, or judgment, Nan recommends becoming a curious detective. Gently explore what was happening before you reached for the food. Were you stressed? Lonely? Exhausted? Overwhelmed? Still carrying the pressure of your workday? Or were you trying to extend a happy or comforting feeling? The goal isn't to excuse what happened. It's to understand it—because understanding gives you an opportunity to respond differently next time. Try This Simple Emotional Check-In Choose something you already do several times a day, such as: Turning on the kettle Washing your hands Filling your water bottle Walking into the kitchen Use that familiar action as a reminder to pause and ask: "How am I feeling right now?" You don't need the perfect answer. Simply noticing whether you feel good, unsettled, pressured, or overwhelmed can help you recognize and support your emotions before they build into an intense nighttime urge. As Lynne and Nan discuss, it's often the smallest steps—repeated consistently—that begin creating meaningful change. Free Resources From Nan Saysana "I Just Ate Dinner. Why Do I Want More?" In this free masterclass, Nan explores why you may still want food after dinner and how you can begin going to bed without the familiar regret.

Having struggled with food herself, Nan understands the guilt, shame, and loss of self-trust that can accompany binge eating. She now helps women explore the emotions and thought patterns beneath their food urges so they can enjoy foods—including chocolate—without fear. Nan lives in Paris and believes meaningful change can be simple, kind, and long-lasting.

In this context, FP&A is helping what's the context we're operating in? What's the strategy that we're executing against? And what does that mean for where we focus? What do we put our attention on?

Pastille de Vichy: The Sweet That Started as a Medicine | Food Tour de FrancePastille de Vichy — the small octagonal white tablet that has been made in Vichy since 1825, that entered the French pharmacopoeia as a medicine in 1837 and that 3.6 million of are produced every single day — is one of the most recognisable and most historically fascinating confections in France. Today's Food Tour de France episode passes through Vichy — the elegant Belle Époque spa town on the Allier river, famous for its mineral springs, its grand hotels and its complicated history — and tells the full story of a sweet invented by a member of both the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Medicine, refused by Napoleon's ministry on the grounds of complexity and eventually turned into one of the most distinctive regional confections in the whole of France. The octagonal shape. The word VICHY on one side. Thermal Establishment on the other. A sweet that sits in that uniquely French space between medicine and confection — and has always been entirely comfortable there.The episode covers the full history of the pastille de Vichy — from Jean-Pierre-Joseph d'Arcet's discovery of the digestive virtues of sodium bicarbonate in the Vichy mineral waters in 1824, through the pharmacist Nicolas-François Regnault's early production, the Brosson brothers' industrial manufacturing from 1833, and the court case of 1914 that formalised the free sale of the pastille beyond the pharmacy. We cover the two producers that make it today — the mainstream Pastille Vichy, now owned by Carambar & Co following a journey through Perrier, Warner-Lambert, Cadbury, Kraft Foods and Mondelez International, and the artisan Maison Moinet, in its seventh generation, still making the Pastille du Bassin de Vichy from the Roger source acquired in 1932. And we cover the connection to Louis Diat — the French chef who invented vichyssoise in New York and named it after the spa town near his birthplace — which we explored in depth in the main Fabulously Delicious series.The Food Tour de France is a daily series running alongside the 2026 Tour de France on Fabulously Delicious — one episode for every stage start and finish. The pastille de Vichy episode sits at a fascinating crossroads in this series — connecting to the Louis Diat episode in the main Fabulously Delicious catalogue, which tells the full story of vichyssoise and the chef who named it after this town, and to the broader picture of central French food culture this part of the series has been building through the Auvergne and the Allier. Search Fabulously Delicious on Spotify and Apple Podcasts for the full series.As Fabulously Delicious steps into its sixth year, one thing is clearer than ever: five years of French food culture has taught Andrew that the subject is genuinely inexhaustible. My book Paris: A Fabulous Food Guide to the World's Most Delicious City is your ultimate companion. This is a new 2026 update for the book and you'll find hand-picked recommendations for the best boulangeries, patisseries, wine bars, cafés, and restaurants that truly capture the flavor of Paris.

Jonathan has spent almost 4 decades in the KM profession, witnessing acquisitions, demergers, and the emergence of new information technologies through roles at Cadbury and Kraft Foods. He currently serves as a KM leader focused on global knowledge retention strategy and the use of AI tools for identifying and exploiting tacit knowledge.In this conversation, Zach and Jonathan discuss how Mondelēz is keeping up with the rate of change of KM, what to do when leadership might not be sold on it, and how to recreate a career path like Jonathan's. They also dive into how Mondelēz is using AI to locate experts within the organization and capture the knowledge in their heads, including methods to motivate people to actually share their knowledge, as well as the difference between "expertise" and "experience."

US Fed Chair Kevin Warsh who was appointed by Trump is to set to oversee his first meeting, but will he hold rates steady? In Japan, six major ice cream makers have been raided following accusations that they have unfairly raised prices. And the Boss of Mondelez who own Cadbury and Toblerone speaks on why he decided to not exit Russia despite their invasion of Ukraine. Presenter Sarah Rogers Producer: Barbara George and Aleeza Siddiq
Mondelēz International, the company behind Cadbury, Oreo, Toblerone and Ritz, has warned that future European investment could bypass the UK if regulatory instability persists.Chief executive Dirk Van de Put says the UK is the company's second-biggest market globally and contributes more than £2.3 billion to the economy each year, supporting 12,000 jobs and spending £1.3 billion with more than 1,000 UK suppliers. But he is sharply critical of food and drink being left out of the government's industrial strategy, despite representing around a quarter of industrial turnover. He says the sector is being taken for granted and warns that repeated policy shifts have already cost Mondelēz £40 million in reformulation work that was then superseded by further changes. Asked whether future investment could go elsewhere in Europe because of government policy, he says: “Yes, of course.”Van de Put also defends Mondelēz's decision to continue operating in Russia, despite acknowledging the company pays taxes there that contribute to the war in Ukraine. He argues that withdrawal would have put 3,000 employees out of work, left 10,000 farmers without a buyer, and likely handed confiscated plants to Kremlin-linked interests that could generate even more money for the Russian state. He says: “I'm not pleased about that,” but maintains that staying was “not the most popular decision” but “the right decision”. The conflict in Ukraine is not theoretical for Mondelēz. Van de Put reveals that the company's office building in Ukraine was hit on the morning of the interview, and its factories have been struck and rebuilt twice at a cost of tens of millions. He also said staff were evacuated to neighbouring countries during the worst of the fighting. More broadly, he describes the past two years as the toughest of his 30-year career. Wars, inflation, oil prices, packaging costs, fertiliser markets and weak household budgets have created cascading pressure across the business. He says global consumer confidence is among the worst he has ever seen.The cocoa supply chain has also suffered its worst disruption in at least 40 years. Concentrated production in Ghana and Ivory Coast, endemic crop disease and back-to-back extreme weather events drove an 18 per cent fall in harvests and sent prices soaring. Two stronger crops have eased the immediate pressure, but Van de Put says the structural fragility remains and the sector needs long-term intervention from governments, companies and farming communities.He also pushes back against the backlash against processed food, saying: “The world cannot live without processed foods.” He argues that processing is essential to food preservation and global food security, though he accepts the industry must continue to make products healthier.On GLP-1 weight loss drugs, Van de Put says Mondelēz is not yet seeing a material impact, but expects the trend to reshape consumer habits over time. He sees the drugs as broadly positive and says the company is adapting through acquisitions in protein and health snacking, including Grenade, Clif Bar and Perfect Snacks, as well as developing products with more protein, fibre and cleaner ingredients.Presenter: Leanna Byrne Producer: Olie D'Albertanson Editor: Henry Jones0:00 Will and Leanna intro the podcast 03:01 Dirk Van de Put interview begins / His background as a vet 08:53 Forces shaping the business: wars, tariffs, climate, cocoa, regulation, GLP-1 drugs 13:25 Europe as a difficult market / Consumer confidence at historic lows16:28 Continuing operations in Russia / Moral decisions & taxes funding the war 21:51 Cocoa supply chain crisis, El Niño & prices 24:27 Consumer pricing, shrinkflation & recipe integrity 29:30 UK industrial strategy: food industry left out 33:00 Future investment in UK & HFSS regulation 36:07 Education vs. regulation on obesity & weight loss drugs 41:48 Acquisitions (Grenade, Clif Bar) & protein/fibre trends 43:50 Chocolate tasters & "tasting Neanderthal" confession

In this episode of The High Performance Mindset, Dr. Cindra Kamphoff sits down with Dr. Armin McCrea-Dastur—leadership and performance consultant, Founder of Diamond Consulting, and expert in both business and sport psychology—to explore what it takes to perform at a high level across every environment. Drawing from more than 30 years of experience in leadership development, organizational performance, and sport psychology, Armin shares a unique perspective on how the skills developed in athletics directly translate into success in business and life. From working with global brands like Ray-Ban, Kraft Foods, and Cadbury to supporting elite athletes and teams—including the University of North Carolina Men's Basketball program during their 2005 championship season—Armin explains how mindset, identity, and self-trust shape performance in critical moments. You'll also hear practical strategies to manage second-guessing in the moment, build confidence in unfamiliar situations, and recognize the competitive advantage athletes already possess. Armin also reflects on her own journey stepping away from competitive skating and how that experience shaped her passion for helping others navigate performance, transition, and leadership with greater clarity. This episode is a powerful reminder that the mindset skills built through sport don't end when competition does—they become the foundation for thriving in every arena of life. You'll Learn: How performance principles apply across sport, business, and leadership Why athletes often struggle with identity after sport How to stop overthinking and trust yourself under pressure What separates high performers in unfamiliar environments Why self-awareness and adaptability are critical for long-term success Episode Resources & Links Learn more about Diamond Consulting: https://www.diamondconsultingcorp.biz/ Learn more about the Mentally Strong Institute: https://mentallystronginstitute.com/ Request a Free Mental Breakthrough Call with Dr. Cindra or her team: https://freementalbreakthroughcall.com/ Download the Confidence Research Study: https://confidencestudy.com/

Monday's show had it all. Tim vomited somewhere on the weekend and listeners called in to guess the location, which is not how most shows start the week but here we are. Australia voted on its top 10 Cadbury bars and there were strong opinions. A woman found her boyfriend's ChatGPT history asking if he should still be in love after three and a half months and ended it on the spot. The night versus morning shower debate was settled by hygiene experts and night showering won, Tim is unconvinced and has agreed to try it this week. A listener's friend secretly recorded some girls confessing to stealing money which opened up the eavesdropping debate. And apparently you should be replacing your underwear every six months which is news to everyone in this studio.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You have probably seen them all over your Instagram feed. Beef liver supplements, sold as a natural, ancestral, high-iron fix for tired, depleted women. But before you add one to your cart, Leanne and Susie have something important to say. This week on The Nutrition Couch, they dig into the iron conversation that so many women desperately need to have, including why your doctor might have told you your iron is fine when it is anything but, why infusions are often the only real solution when stores are genuinely low, and exactly why beef liver supplements are one of the most overhyped products circulating on social media right now. If you are tired, breathless, foggy, or just never quite feel rested no matter how much sleep you get, this episode might be the most useful 40 minutes you spend this week. In this episode: Why ferritin is the iron marker that matters most and why a result your doctor calls normal can still leave you feeling exhausted, foggy, and completely flat The real daily iron requirements for women across different life stages, including why pregnancy and breastfeeding can leave stores so depleted that supplements alone simply will not cut it Why iron supplements can be so rough on your gut, which forms tend to be better tolerated, and why liquid over capsule is often the smarter starting point The signs that your iron might be low that most women overlook, including restless legs at night, breathlessness on easy walks, and waking up exhausted after a full night of sleep The best food sources of iron ranked, including the ones that most women are not eating nearly enough of, and the vitamin C pairing that makes all the difference to absorption What to avoid when taking iron and why washing your tablet down with coffee or tea is quietly undoing your efforts Beef liver supplements: Leanne looked up more than ten brands and the numbers are damning. Why these products are providing a fraction of what your body actually needs, what they cost versus what you get, and why they are not a therapeutic solution for anyone with genuinely low iron A supermarket hot chocolate review comparing Jarrah, Avalanche, Cadbury and Lindt, what the nutrition panels actually reveal, and why some functional hot chocolates retailing at $60 should be approached with serious caution A review of the new Birdseye scalloped potato with paprika from the frozen vegetable range, and why the nutritionals are stronger than you might expect Shop Designed by Dietitians: If you are looking for a genuinely functional hot chocolate to wind down this winter, REST by Designed by Dietitians is formulated with magnesium glycinate, glycine, L-tryptophan, passionflower, chamomile, and jujube extract for sleep and nervous system support, with no artificial sweeteners and a whole milk powder base for that creamy mouthfeel.

We're talking all about the wild world of beauty hacks and skincare techniques on this episode of The Double Cleanse - what's actually useful and what's just viral clickbait! After opening with nostalgic stories about their school days (including a conspiracy theory about James inventing Cadbury's Dream chocolate bar), the twins dive into the modern beauty hack phenomenon. Are influencers really showing you groundbreaking techniques, or are they just making content look more interesting than it actually is? The twins are breaking down the difference between genuinely educational hacks – like colour correction tutorials that teach you colour theory – and the ridiculous "you're using this product WRONG" videos that are purely for entertainment. They're calling out the pressure on influencers to make everything seem revolutionary when really, you can just rub the damn product on your face. The key takeaway? If something is already working for you, ignore the hacks.
