Podcasts about family focus

In this conversation, Vilma Livas, Chief Marketing Officer at Nature's Bakery, discusses the brand's purpose of providing healthier snack options for families and the importance of convenience, taste, and value in their product development process. We touch on the impact of the company's acquisition by Mars and how it has allowed for growth and innovation, particularly with new products like the Oatmeal Crumble and Hearty Bar. Vilma shares insights into her consumer-centric approach to product development and the importance of both consumer insights and retail partnerships in launching new products in the CPG industry. She shares the background behind the development of Nature's Bakery's newest innovation — the Hearty Bar. Then we wrap up by discussing Vilma's involvement with Women on Boards, advocating for greater representation of women in leadership roles, and her vision of a better world which includes democratizing access to healthy food options for all consumers. Takeaways:Nature's Bakery aims to nourish families and make healthy snacking accessible.The brand focuses on convenience, offering products that are easy to consume on the go.Consumer research revealed a full family audience for their snack bars, from toddlers to grandparents.The product design emphasizes great taste and better-for-you attributes.The acquisition by Mars has provided resources for scaling and innovation.Nature's Bakery maintains a commitment to its brand purpose despite ownership changes.The product development process starts with identifying consumer needs and iterating ideas.Collaboration with diverse teams enhances creativity in product development.The Oatmeal Crumble was developed to address the need for convenient breakfast options.A consumer-centric approach is crucial for successful product innovation. It's crucial to put personal bias aside for better outcomes.Retailers have their own goals that must be understood.Empathy in business relationships leads to better partnerships.Involving retailers early in product development increases success.Healthy snacks must appeal to both parents and children.Women are underrepresented in board positions despite their influence.Accessibility to healthy food is a significant issue.Consumer demand drives the need for better food options. Sound Bites:“Everything we do is this balance of three things that we hold dear: 1 - great taste; 2 - better-for-you; and 3 - accessibility.”“Start with the consumer. What's the job to be done? What is the problem we're trying to solve here?”“Being owned by a much larger organization has allowed us to accelerate the rate at which we can scale.”“Stay focused on the goal, not the path that we're taking to get there.”"Retailers are gatekeepers to the shelf.""Be empathic, show up and learn.""Kids are very discerning about their snacks."“If you think about the purchasing power of women, you would expect to see that they also influence the direction and course of companies, but they're not at the table.”“A better world is one where we've democratized better for you food, by making it available and accessible to all.” Links:Vilma Livas on Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/vdlivas/Nature's Bakery - https://naturesbakery.com/Nature's Bakery on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/naturesbakery/Nature's Bakery on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/naturesbakery/Nature's Bakery on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@naturesbakeryNature's Bakery on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@naturesbakery1316Nature's Bakery on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/nature-s-bakery/…Women on Boards - https://www.wobproject.com/Women on Boards on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/wob-project/…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_radio Chapters:03:00 - Introduction to Nature's Bakery and Brand Purpose06:03 - Understanding the Family Focus in Healthy Snacking08:58 - The Importance of Convenience and Product Design12:12 - Balancing Taste, Value, and Health in Product Development14:55 - Navigating Brand Growth and Acquisition Challenges18:07 - Leveraging Resources from Larger Corporations21:08 - Innovations: Oatmeal Crumble and Hearty Bar23:51 - The Product Development Process Explained26:56 - Iterating Ideas and Consumer-Centric Design32:30 - Consumer Insights and Retail Partnerships38:12 - Innovating with the Hearty Bar43:28 - Empowering Women on Boards48:38 - Personal Favorites and Future Trends53:47 - A Better World Through Accessible Food

Vienna Pharaon is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of New York, practicing out of New York City, conveniently located near Grand Central Station. Vienna received her Master of Science in Marriage & Family Therapy from Northwestern University, and trained extensively at The Family Institute, Bette D. Harris Center. There she treated individuals, couples, and families in a clinic setting. Vienna also received training at Family Focus, a community outreach program, providing community-, home-, and clinic-based therapeutic services for individuals and families. After moving back east, Vienna continued her training in Manhattan based private practice settings and worked with both individuals and couples, as well as individuals who needed structured anger management therapy. Vienna started her own practice, Mindful Marriage & Family Therapy, in an effort to expand her approach and help as many people heal, and step into their transformation as possible. Vienna is also the “Relationship Expert” for Motherly, a platform for millennial mothers who are transitioning into parenthood. She runs singles and couples retreats around the world, and leads relationship workshops in new cities every few months. Vienna brings a special type of energy to therapy. She truly believes that her clients have the capacity to create beautiful, long lasting change. She pays close attention to patterns, and looks to understand a person's full story before examining the “issue” that's bringing the client in. Vienna listens to understand, and uses a collaborative approach so that she and her clients can explore, discuss, challenge thoughts and feelings, and create goals. She uses a systemic and integrative approach that addresses people within the context of their relationships.Vienna's style uses warmth, compassion, intuition, optimism, and collaboration. She is active in therapy, and although she finds listening to be incredibly important, she's known to challenge her clients, highlight where they're stuck, and encourage their transformation.
