Stefanie Garcia Turner of Tuyyo, Jocelyn Ramirez of Todo Verde, and Regina Trillo of Nemi share how they met, why they decided to merge their businesses and brands, and what their vision is for the new brand, unified under Tuyyo. The three woman-and-minoroty-owned brands share a mission of amplifying their Latin-American food culture through authentic and innovative latin foods, representation food culture, and community impact . Learn how this strategic merger will allows each leader to lean into their strengths, and how collaboration aligned on shared values can accelerate growth in the challenger food brand space.Takeaways:The origins and individual missions of Jocelyn of Todo Verde, Regina of Nemi Snacks, and Stephanie of Tuyyo FoodsThe strategic process behind their merger—personality tests, role division, and cultural alignmentHow they'll leverage their merger to reduce costs, expand categories, and innovate fasterTransition strategies for branding, retail placement, and consumer education across their unified brand Tuyyo FoodsSupply chain synergies and efforts to lower COGS by 35% or more through manufacturing and sourcing efficienciesThe broader vision: promoting Latin American flavors regionally and globally while supporting farmers and sustainabilityChallenges faced—costs of rebranding, education hurdles around regional products, and maintaining brand integrityThe importance of shared values, culture fit, and a growth mindset for successful mergersRecommendations for founders considering collaboration and merger as a growth pathwayBook and resource recommendations around exponential thinking, sensory storytelling, and personal spiritualityThoughts on building a healthier food system rooted in equity, community, and transparent ingredient sourcingSound Bites:“We can create something that is even bigger, that is even more impactful, that really is going to make a dent in the food industry.” (Stefanie)“We went from, I'm holding this, this is my baby, to really egoless, like this isn't about me, this is about a brand.” (Jocelyn)“We all knew each other relatively well before the merger. Stephanie is better at this than I am, Regina is better at this than I am, you know, so there was already a sense of like, if we came together, we could split the work in that way.” (Jocelyn)“We are planning on bringing everything under the one Tuyyo brand.” (Stefanie)“We're moving towards standardizing our supply chain operations. It's been a constant conversation and communication with suppliers, both in the US and in Mexico to see what's going to be the best way to do it.“ (Regina)“As of right now, [cost of goods optimization has] been at least 35%, which is it's been a big amount. And based on some information that we have, it's probably going to be higher than that.” (Regina)“I think that it's really gonna be about putting our community first and building a brand that not only can we be proud of, but that is a reflection of our heritage.” (Stefanie)“It took me six years to figure out that I didn't want to continue doing it alone.” (Regina)“[A better world is one] with more representation of the reality of how the community and how that should be represented on shelf as well. Ideally with products that are actually better for us, that are made with real ingredients, that are also supporting the farmers that are producing those ingredients.” (Regina)“[A better world is one with] a food system that is actually catered to the betterment of people in their everyday lives. It would just solve so many issues. And with all of the problems that we have between preventable diseases and healthcare systems that don't work for the people, it goes beyond justice for the farmer, but justice for everybody in the food chain.” (Stefanie)“I think that that in an ideal world there are policies put in place that are protecting people [by regulating] what is allowed and what isn't allowed in our food system. And products, especially those we give to children, that allow us to really reshape our palates and create shortcuts for cooking without taking the cooking part away because that's an basic survival life skill that most people should have and it empowers people to like know what's in their food, and how to nourish their families.” (Jocelyn)Links:Stefanie Garcia Turner on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/stefanie-garcia-turner/Jocelyn Ramirez on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jocelyncramirez77/Regina Trillo on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/regina-trillo-a5055711/Tuyyo - https://tuyyofoods.com/Tuyyo on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/tuyyofoods/Tuyyo on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/tuyyofoods/Tuyyo on Pinterest - https://www.pinterest.com/tuyyofoods/Tuyyo on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@tuyyofoodsTuyyo on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4b_-VIdL7Yl7UQb91y5Vow…Tuyyo Wefunder - Coming soon……Todo Verde (website will go away soon) - https://todoverde.org/Nemi (website will go away soon) - https://neminative.com/…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radioTimestamps: 0:00 - Introduction of guests and their brands2:11 - The idea of merging to amplify Latin American food culture3:14 - The role of Jocelyn as a connector4:14 - Initial conversations and alignment of goals5:09 - Personality tests and understanding team dynamics6:18 - Personal insights and alignment of values7:19 - Confirmation of shared vision and responsibilities8:36 - Expanding vision and impact9:23 - Egoless collaboration and shared goals10:16 - Overcoming personal challenges in the merger process11:33 - Open communication and external support12:47 - Technical adjustments during recording13:00 - Introduction and alignment of values and vision13:29 - Discussion on dividing responsibilities among the founders13:49 - Initial retreat and mission alignment14:19 - Specific roles and responsibilities based on skills15:16 - Transitioning responsibilities before the merger15:57 - The natural fit of the founders' skills16:18 - Pre-existing relationships and collaboration17:27 - Importance of enjoying the process and having fun19:20 - Branding and unifying product lines under Tuyo Foods20:11 - Transition phase and retail placement21:11 - Marketing strategies and community engagement22:34 - Plans for easing the transition on retail shelves23:28 - Supply chain synergies and manufacturing efficiencies25:12 - Cost reduction strategies and shared resources26:54 - New shared vision and broader goals27:39 - Community focus and brand representation29:28 - Expanding Latin American food representation31:01 - Becoming a go-to platform for Latin foods33:07 - Benefits and opportunities unlocked by the merger36:30 - Challenges and unresolved issues37:37 - Fundraising and rebranding costs38:20 - Advice for other founders considering mergers41:58 - Future of the industry and collaboration45:26 - Fun questions about favorite Latin American foods53:51 - Book recommendations and personal insights60:10 - Influential voices and brands to watch65:17 - Vision of a more representative, equitable, and sustainable food system71:13 - Upcoming plans and ways to connect with Tuyo FoodsFor more insights on food innovation, community building, and scaling purpose-driven brands, subscribe and stay tuned for future episodes.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

They discuss real scarcity in plus-size clothing, including brands dropping extended sizes, and the grief and privilege tied to beauty standards.

If leggings are your everyday uniform, this conversation matters. Because when something becomes your second skin, it deserves a closer look.

The custom fit of bespoke clothing with the efficiency and scale of factory production: this is the sweet spot that so many fashion businesses are aiming for. However, finding this sweet spot can be as difficult as finding a pair of jeans that fits just right. Daniela Rodriguez and Andre Ramirez-Cedeno of Neems Jeans have found both. Traditional manufacturing is still evolving and the technology is still emerging. In episode 132, we look at what is working and what still needs work when it comes to custom clothing production. Daniela Rodriguez-Firmani and Andre Ramirez-Cedeno are the co-founders of Neems Jeans, a fashion-tech company using AI body-scanning technology to create custom-fit jeans for every body. Both Miami natives and Northwestern graduates, Dani and Andre worked as management consultants before their personal frustrations changed everything: they could never find jeans that fit perfectly. In 2020, they launched Neems together - armed with zero fashion experience but fierce determination to solve a problem millions face every time they shop for denim. Together, they've scaled Neems into a rapidly growing seven-figure brand serving thousands of customers internationally, challenging the myth of standard sizing while proving that innovation and sustainability can coexist. Their mission: make clothing that fits people, not the other way around. This episode explores: Fitting the customer Why Neems isn't constrained to fitting one customer niche The biggest customer segments for Neems and what that says about the fit of off-the-rack options How Daniela and Andre overcome skepticism from customers Fitting the lifestyle The point-of-no-return investment that Daniela and Andre made How Neems production has evolved through different stages of the business' life How Daniela and Andre arrived at the price point for their custom jeans Fitting the values The vision and values that keeps them going even when things are hard The different reasons why customers buy Neems People and resources mentioned in this episode: Neems Jeans website Neems Jeans Instagram Choozr body scanning/measuring technology Tukatech pattern software and machinery Do you want fashion business tips and resources like this sent straight to your inbox?

Send a textFrost on the tent, mist on the lake, and a quiet trail all to yourself—edge-season camping can be magic if you prepare for it. We break down how to stay warm, dry, and confident through early spring, late fall, or a surprise cold snap, drawing on decades of trips and a few hard-won lessons.We start by defining what shoulder season really looks like: freeze–thaw cycles, mud and slush, shortened daylight, and the way wet gear can turn a good plan sideways. From there, we dive into practical systems. You'll hear how to pick a sleeping bag rated well below the forecast, why doubling up sleeping pads boosts R-value, and how a boiled water bottle becomes a foot warmer that preheats your bag and chases damp. We compare down versus synthetic in real-world moisture, and explain why ventilation inside the tent matters as much as warmth.Clothing strategy takes centre stage with the no-sweat rule: start cool, manage heat with zippers and vents, and keep dry sleep layers sacred. We talk waterproof boots, tall gaiters, sock rotation, and the underrated move of sleeping with boot liners to dodge a frozen morning. On the kitchen front, we unpack stove performance in the cold, when to favour liquid fuel over canisters, and smart hydration habits when cold dulls your thirst. Safety gets a full segment—thin ice, collapsing snow bridges, fast water—and we share a family hypothermia scare to highlight early signs and quick interventions.Finally, we offer a roadmap for who should try shoulder-season trips and how to start: begin with car camping, check the forecast right before departure, keep an exit plan simple, and rent specialized gear to test before buying. The payoff is real—sharper skills, steadier mindset, wilder wildlife encounters, and campgrounds that feel like your own private retreat. If you found this helpful, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves quiet trails, and leave a review to tell us your best cold-weather tip.Support the showCONNECT WITH US AT SUPER GOOD CAMPING:Support the podcast & buy super cool SWAG: https://store.skgroupinc.com/super_good_camping/shop/homeEMAIL: hi@supergoodcamping.comWEBSITE: www.supergoodcamping.comYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqFDJbFJyJ5Y-NHhFseENsQINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/super_good_camping/TWITTER: https://twitter.com/SuperGoodCampinFACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/SuperGoodCamping/TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@supergoodcamping Support the show

During our conversation, he breaks down what "psychic surgery" actually means, how he identifies energetic distortions in individuals, and the role higher-dimensional beings play in his work.   We explore his latest book, History, Truth and Healing, where he outlines a bold perspective: that extraterrestrial forces have influenced human history and consciousness on a level most people don't recognize. He shares his view on energetic implants, frequency manipulation, and the idea that humanity is currently undergoing a massive ascension shift.   Is this spiritual warfare? Psychological archetypes? Interdimensional beings? We ask the hard questions.   Throughout the episode, we challenge and explore: What exactly happens during a remote psychic surgery? How does he differentiate between trauma-based issues and external attachments? Are Arcturian beings literal extraterrestrials or higher consciousness archetypes? Can these claims be verified or measured? What responsibility do spiritual healers carry when working with vulnerable people?   Dr. Macklin also addresses skepticism directly. In a field often criticized for lacking scientific validation, he explains how he responds to critics and what he believes science may one day discover about multidimensional realities.   One of the most compelling moments comes when we discuss fear — whether fear feeds negative forces or whether it's simply part of awakening. We dive into the concept of ascension timelines, the energetic state of the planet, and whether humanity is in the middle of a spiritual inflection point.   As always on 222 Paranormal, this is not about blind belief or instant dismissal — it's about exploration. We approach the unknown with curiosity, grounded questioning, and respect for personal experience. Whether you view these concepts as literal cosmic events or symbolic frameworks for inner transformation, this episode will stretch your thinking.   If you've ever wondered about: Entity attachments Psychic surgery Spiritual warfare Extraterrestrial influence Ascension symptoms Energetic healing Higher-dimensional beings This is an episode you won't want to miss. The conversation is intense, expansive, and at times unsettling — but it ultimately circles back to one powerful theme: sovereignty. What does it mean to reclaim your energy, your consciousness, and your spiritual authority in a complex and chaotic world? Turn down the lights, lean in, and decide for yourself.   Welcome to the 222 Paranormal Podcast, your gateway to the captivating world of the supernatural. Immerse yourself in our expertly crafted episodes, where we delve deep into a wide range of paranormal phenomena, including ghostly hauntings, cryptid sightings, and unexplained mysteries that defy logic.

In this video, I break down the 5 biggest mistakes clothing brands make — mistakes that quietly kill sales, credibility, and growth even when you're working hard. I've seen these issues repeatedly after working with 500+ clothing brands, generating millions of social media views, and building my own brands past $1M in online sales. We'll talk about brand clarity, website credibility, social proof, differentiation, and systems — the foundational pieces that turn a clothing brand into something people actually trust and buy from. If you're starting a clothing brand, running a streetwear brand, or trying to grow your apparel business, this will help you fix the fundamentals that matter most. 

Why does a “large” fit like a medium… unless it fits like a tent? On this episode of That Don't Sound Right, hosts Peter and Cecil tackle the universal frustration of clothing sizes — from wildly inconsistent sizing charts to the gamble of buying gifts online and the awkward return-counter two-step. Guest Emily joins the conversation with smart thrifting strategies and insider tips for finding hidden gems without losing your mind in the fitting room. Along the way, the guys swap stories about off-sized shirts, shrinking cotton disasters, vintage sizing mysteries, and the subtle emotional rollercoaster of trying something on that should fit… but doesn't. Then they brainstorm the app we all wish existed — one that matches your exact measurements to every brand's sizing chart so you never have to guess again. It's a light, candid conversation about fitting in (literally), thrift-store treasure hunts, online shopping regrets, and keeping the kind of back-and-forth alive that doesn't require Googling the answer. If you've ever said, “That don't sound right,” while staring at a tag in disbelief — this one's for you.

During the American Civil War, clothing became central to the ways people waged war and experienced its cost. Through the clothes they made, wore, mended, lost, and stole, Americans expressed their allegiances, showed their love, confronted their social and economic challenges, subverted expectations, and, ultimately, preserved their history. As the collections they left behind make clear, Civil War Americans believed clothing was not merely a reflection of one's class, gender, race, military rank, political ideology, or taste. Instead, Northerners and Southerners alike understood that clothing—from the weave of a fabric to the style and make of a coat—had the power to affect people's way of living through the war's tumult.In A Nation Unraveled: Clothing, Culture, and Violence in the American Civil War Era (UNC Press, 2026), Dr. Sarah Jones Weicksel reveals the meanings clothing had for Civil War Americans. Contributing to the growing body of scholarship on the material culture of the Civil War, Dr. Weicksel invites readers to understand how the war penetrated daily life by focusing on the intimate, visceral, material experiences that shaped how people moved through the world. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

During the American Civil War, clothing became central to the ways people waged war and experienced its cost. Through the clothes they made, wore, mended, lost, and stole, Americans expressed their allegiances, showed their love, confronted their social and economic challenges, subverted expectations, and, ultimately, preserved their history. As the collections they left behind make clear, Civil War Americans believed clothing was not merely a reflection of one's class, gender, race, military rank, political ideology, or taste. Instead, Northerners and Southerners alike understood that clothing—from the weave of a fabric to the style and make of a coat—had the power to affect people's way of living through the war's tumult.In A Nation Unraveled: Clothing, Culture, and Violence in the American Civil War Era (UNC Press, 2026), Dr. Sarah Jones Weicksel reveals the meanings clothing had for Civil War Americans. Contributing to the growing body of scholarship on the material culture of the Civil War, Dr. Weicksel invites readers to understand how the war penetrated daily life by focusing on the intimate, visceral, material experiences that shaped how people moved through the world.

In Episode 9 of The Composter, I sit down with Scott Howarth from the Sinclair Group, one of the largest manufactures of produce labels. We talk about how fruit stickers came to be, how labeling is evolving, what the future could hold for compostable produce labeling.Last September, I found myself in a friendly conversation with the stranger sitting next to me. We were chatting away when I suddenly realized that this stranger, Scott, played a role in developing what many composters consider their greatest nemesis: the fruit sticker. 40 billion stickers a year are made by the Sinclair Group, where Scott does Research and Development.For decades, I've been having imaginary conversations with Scott (although I didn't know that was his name. So many compost gripe sessions over the last 15 years have circled back to those tiny little stickers. Finding them in finished compost. Trying, and usually failing, to teach people to remove them. Knowing there's no practical way to screen them out once they're in the system.So this episode really felt like a rare opportunity to sit down, ask the questions, and get to the root of it all.The future is looking bright and Sinclair is at the forefront of the upcoming positive changes. There is legislation in New Zealand and Europe which will ban the plastic fruit stickers. And some companies, like the kiwi company, Zespri are already choosing compostable stickers for their fruit. We are on the cusp of true change.This conversation left me thinking about how much better the world might be if we all had more chances to sit down for real, thoughtful conversations with the people behind the systems — especially the ones that create frustration and pain points in our daily lives. There's so much that can shift when we move from assumptions to understanding.Before we dive in, I also want to say thank you to this episode's sponsors, Green Mountain Technology, Agrilab Technologies and Compost Capital Network, for supporting this show and the work of composters everywhere.This is a conversation for every composter who's ever pulled a sticker out of a lovingly finished pile of compost.Check out Sinclair (

Rabbi Zuckerman explores why the Torah goes into such detail about the clothing one should wear in a sacred space. Clothing, according to the Torah, is not decorative. Rather, it binds us and shapes us. In the biblical imagination, clothing does not merely express identity – it creates identity.

But what is it about this number that feels so… intentional? In this special anniversary episode of 222 Paranormal Podcast, we dive deep into the mystery, symbolism, synchronicity, and spiritual interpretations of the number 222. Is it just coincidence? Or is it a message? We begin by exploring the meaning of 222 in numerology, where repeating numbers are often called "angel numbers." In numerological interpretation, 2 represents balance, harmony, duality, and partnership. When tripled, 222 amplifies those energies — suggesting alignment, divine timing, and reassurance that you're on the right path. Many people report seeing 222 during pivotal life moments — on clocks, receipts, license plates, or phone numbers. Is this psychological pattern recognition, or something more? We also look at religious and spiritual symbolism. In the Bible, the number 2 often represents union or witness. Some scholars connect the repetition of numbers with divine confirmation or covenant themes. While 222 isn't explicitly referenced as a single number in scripture, the pattern of repetition itself has long been associated with spiritual emphasis and sacred rhythm. We touch on synchronicity — a concept popularized by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung — who believed meaningful coincidences were not random, but connected to deeper layers of the unconscious or collective consciousness. Could seeing 222 be a personal synchronicity? A nudge from the universe? A moment of alignment between inner thought and outer reality? The episode also explores psychological explanations. Humans are pattern-seeking creatures. Once a number becomes meaningful, the brain's reticular activating system begins to notice it more frequently. But here's the question: does awareness create the experience, or does the experience create awareness? We share listener stories of recurring 222 sightings before major life shifts — career changes, spiritual awakenings, even paranormal encounters. Some describe feeling calm and reassured when they see it. Others feel it's a call to pay attention. In true 222 Paranormal fashion, we don't just present answers — we explore possibilities: Is 222 a symbol of balance between the physical and spiritual worlds? Could it represent duality within ourselves — light and shadow? Is it a cosmic "thumbs up" when you're aligned with your purpose? Or is it simply the power of belief shaping perception? Whether you see 222 as an angel number, a manifestation signal, divine confirmation, or a psychological phenomenon, one thing is certain: meaning is powerful. And when meaning repeats, it demands attention. On February 22, we celebrate not just a number — but a symbol of connection. Between you and the unknown. Between coincidence and destiny. Between question and mystery. So the next time you glance at the clock and it reads 2:22… Is it random? Or is it calling you?   Welcome to the 222 Paranormal Podcast, your gateway to the captivating world of the supernatural.

In this investigative solo deep dive, Darin exposes the ongoing PFAS contamination crisis, the "forever chemicals" found in drinking water, clothing, carpets, cookware, cosmetics, food packaging, and even firefighting foam. Sparked by a Frontline investigation into the carpet industry in Dalton, Georgia, this episode expands far beyond one region and reveals a global supply chain problem affecting nearly every American. This episode is urgent. With 99% of people showing measurable PFAS levels in their blood, this is not about fear. It's about sovereignty. It's about awareness. It's about eliminating silent accumulation and reclaiming control over your environment. This is not luxury health. This is foundational freedom.     In This Episode What PFAS are and why they're called "forever chemicals" The Dalton, Georgia carpet industry case and wastewater contamination Internal corporate knowledge from 3M and DuPont decades ago Why PFAS contamination is global, not regional Everyday exposure: waterproof clothing, yoga pants, school uniforms, outdoor gear Nonstick cookware and safer alternatives Microwave popcorn bags and grease-resistant packaging Cosmetics, mascara, and fluorinated compounds Firefighting foam contamination at airports and military bases Health impacts: immune suppression, thyroid disruption, cancer risk Why water filtration is your first line of defense Emerging detox strategies: fiber, blood donation, microbiome support The role of regulation rollbacks and corporate accountability Algae-based PFAS alternatives already entering the market     Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife: sovereignty, health, and responsibility 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Truniagen NAD supplement 00:02:17 – Why this PFAS episode is urgent and investigative 00:03:07 – The Frontline documentary: Dalton, Georgia & carpet contamination 00:04:31 – What PFAS / PFOA actually do and why they were adopted 00:05:45 – "Miracle chemistry" without proper safety testing 00:06:07 – Persistence: PFAS do not break down in the environment 00:06:38 – Wastewater discharge & farmland contamination 00:07:50 – Dead livestock, contaminated groundwater & generational impact 00:08:23 – 3M, DuPont, internal documents & decades of corporate knowledge 00:08:52 – Long-chain vs short-chain PFAS replacements 00:09:20 – Clothing exposure: waterproof jackets, yoga pants, uniforms 00:10:24 – Cookware exposure & safer alternatives 00:10:57 – Cosmetics & Environmental Working Group resources 00:11:17 – Sponsor: Shakeology & seven layers of quality testing 00:13:03 – Lack of labeling transparency 00:13:20 – Firefighting foam & military base contamination 00:14:05 – Health risks: immune suppression, thyroid, cholesterol, cancer 00:14:35 – 99% of Americans have PFAS in their blood 00:15:01 – Erin Brockovich & environmental legal activism 00:15:33 – Personal action step #1: Reverse osmosis water filtration 00:16:04 – Testing well water & municipal pressure 00:16:28 – Personal action step #2: Eliminating household exposures 00:17:25 – Emerging research: oat beta glucan fiber 00:18:03 – Firefighter study: blood donation lowering PFAS levels 00:18:32 – Microbiome & mycelium detox research 00:18:56 – Moving beyond fear into empowered action 00:19:23 – Phasing out toxic clothing & upgrading environment gradually 00:20:15 – Stockholm Convention & global treaties 00:20:52 – EPA regulations & rollback frustrations 00:21:19 – Innovation outrunning safety 00:21:50 – Share this episode & create consumer pressure 00:22:28 – Clean water, clean soil, clean products as human rights 00:22:54 – Terem Labs & algae-based PFAS alternatives 00:23:27 – Building a safe home environment as first step 00:24:15 – Final call to action: demand transparency & push reform     Thank You to Our Sponsors Shakeology: Get 15% off with code DARINO1BODI at Shakeology.com.
