Joelle Weinand is the Founder of Nutcase Milk, the cashew-based chocolate milk brand taking on Nesquik with a cleaner, more sophisticated option built for adults.What started as a boredom-fueled kitchen experiment during COVID: blending cashews, cocoa, and dates in her Vitamix, quickly evolved into a business. A chance brunch in Las Vegas with old poker friends turned into a pre-seed round when investors tried and liked her “ChocoMilk”. Soon, big names like Ninja and Steve Aoki came on board, and an ops expert from Mezcla Bars helped Joelle scale.Joelle's path blends relentless scrappiness with an instinct for spotting white space in crowded categories. From shelving the idea when no co-packers picked up the phone, to saying yes when opportunity appeared in unexpected rooms, to relaunching her formula based on real customer feedback, she's showing how a so-called “nutcase” idea can capture the market's imagination.Whether you're trying to break into CPG, find your first investors, or take a product from Instagram post to retail shelf, Joelle shares a candid look at how to move fast, embrace serendipity, and build a brand people are proud to carry.In This Conversation We Discuss:[00:42] Intro[00:57] Launching nostalgia as a premium product[01:24] Testing a concept with friends at brunch[07:02] Highlighting the power of simple ideas[08:13] Running small tests before scaling up[09:10] Connecting with ops partners through luck[12:46] Episode Sponsors: Electric Eye, Heatmap, Grow[15:59] Meeting investors at random events[17:23] Building trust with passion and clarity[18:23] Raising a pre-seed with friends[22:18] Asking founders for advice directly[25:04] Reducing friction in early startups[26:55] Gathering feedback to guide reformulationResources:Subscribe to Honest Ecommerce on YoutubeDelicious, healthy and nostalgic cashew milk https://drinknutcase.com/Follow Joelle Weinand https://www.linkedin.com/in/joelledSchedule an intro call with one of our experts https://electriceye.io/connectClear, real-time data built for ecommerce optimization https://www.heatmap.com/honestThe Premier Conference for Ecommerce Operators https://www.joingrow.comIf you're enjoying the show, we'd love it if you left Honest Ecommerce a review on Apple Podcasts.

We discuss the challenges faced by those who rely solely on videos and magazines for golf improvement, sharing anecdotes about how this approach can sometimes lead to confusion rather than progress. Highlighting practical tips from golf publications, we touch on techniques that anyone can try, like using tees for practice or the correct way to utilize impact bags with bubble wrap to improve swing accuracy. The conversation also explores the significance of paying attention to the sound and feel of a golf shot, even at the professional level. We wrap up with some light-hearted banter about nicknames and the humorous quirks of the golfing community, illustrating the camaraderie and humor inherent in the sport. (13:15) Improving Impact With Lightweight Training This chapter explores innovative approaches to improving golf swing techniques using unconventional tools. I share insights on how hitting different materials, like deflated balls and car wash sponges, can enhance a golfer's swing without the risk of injury or damaging equipment. By incorporating lightweight materials such as bubble wrap and inflatable rubber balls into impact bags, we create a practice environment that encourages aggressive yet safe swings. Additionally, we highlight the benefits of using older clubs with metal shafts to prevent damage to modern graphite clubs. We also discuss how professional golfers train with focus on functional strength rather than aesthetics, underscoring the importance of effective impact training over traditional bodybuilding. (18:00) The Impact of Fitness on Golf This chapter focuses on the evolving nature of golf training, highlighting the shift from traditional methods to modern, results-oriented approaches. We explore how contemporary golfers are training not just for skill, but for physical resilience and power, akin to athletes in more physically demanding sports. Through anecdotes about Rory McIlroy and other young athletes, we emphasize the importance of strength and injury prevention, while also addressing the risks of overtraining, as seen in young golfers experiencing injuries typically found in older players. We discuss the implications of this intense training mindset, likening it to the sacrifice-for-success mentality seen in other professional sports, and question the sustainability and health implications for those not at the top echelon. With insights from Jeff Smith and Scott Monroe, we examine how these approaches impact golfers' longevity and propose strategies for balancing ambition with health preservation. (26:59) Debate on Golf Instruction Liability This chapter explores the intricacies and challenges faced by performance coaches in the world of sports, particularly golf. We examine the potential liability coaches might face if their techniques inadvertently lead to player injuries, highlighting the importance of aligning coaching methods with individual player needs. The conversation emphasizes that it's not always about the coach but the information being conveyed and how it matches with the athlete's physical capabilities. The discussion also touches on the unique sounds and techniques of skilled golfers, noting the awe-inspiring noise of a well-struck ball. Furthermore, we explore how high-speed video analysis, while insightful, can sometimes mislead golfers into overanalyzing movements that occur in fractions of a second, potentially harming their performance. Through anecdotes and examples, we underscore the balance between using advanced technology for improvement and maintaining an understanding of the sport's fundamental mechanics. (32:30) Golf Instruction and Trends This chapter explores the impact of technology on golf instruction, emphasizing that the over-reliance on slow-motion analysis may lead to incorrect assumptions about a player's intentions and biomechanics. We discuss the importance of focusing on motion, rhythm, and timing rather than the minutiae of swing mechanics, which can often lead to misinformation and potentially harmful techniques. I stress the need for a more personalized approach to instruction, suggesting that golfers consult with experts like Kelly Stenzel or EA Tishler for assessments that consider individual physical capabilities. This personalized approach helps golfers identify what techniques are suitable for them, enhancing their ability to improve without risking injury.

In today's episode, we tackle the heavy topics of shame and guilt and how they impact our lives. Highlighting a unique perspective as a criminal defense attorney, this episode sheds light on how these feelings can affect our lives and identities. While guilt is connected to our actions, shame is a much deeper issue that attacks our self-worth.

1. "Plentiful Country, The Great Potato Famine and the Making of Irish New York" by Professor Tyler Anbinder details the experiences of famine Irish immigrants who arrived in New York between 1845 and 1850, highlighting their journey from hardship to significant socioeconomic advancement. A primary source for this account is the extensive records of the Immigrant Savings Bank. Unlike other immigrant records, such as those from Castle Garden and early Ellis Island, which were lost to fire, these "test books" captured detailed biographical information—including names, occupations, mother's maiden names, family members, and arrival details—used as a security measure in the absence of photo IDs. This data enabled the author to trace individual immigrant stories. The narrative begins with the devastating Great Potato Famine in Ireland, caused by a fungus that thrived in the cool, damp climate, destroying the staple crop on which much of the population depended. Fleeing starvation, many, often the strongest, endured perilous voyages. They frequently traveled through Liverpool, England, to access cheaper passage, only to face overcrowded and disease-ridden "coffin ships" across the Atlantic, where typhus and cholera were common. Arrival in New York was typically unceremonious, with immigrants disembarking directly onto docks before Castle Garden became a central reception point. Upon arrival, many Irish immigrants, like Bartholomew O'Donnell, initially found work as day laborers, often in physically demanding construction jobs in impoverished areas such as Five Points and its infamous Old Brewery. They also faced significant prejudice rooted in their Catholicism and racial stereotypes, exemplified by "no Irish need apply" notices and movements like the Know Nothing Party. Despite these challenges, the Irish displayed remarkable ambition, determination, and entrepreneurial spirit. They were diligent savers, motivated by the psychological scars of the famine to establish emergency funds in banks. The book provides numerous examples of their success: Captain James Kavanagh of the 69th Regiment (Irish Brigade) fought heroically in the Civil War, later finding a civil service position. The Lynches saved for a decade before moving west to become successful farmers in Minnesota, founding Irish communities. The Ruddics, after missing the gold rush in California, became landlords and real estate investors in San Francisco. Michael Quigley built a thriving boat business in New York Harbor, which his son Bill Quigley successfully continued. Tailor George Fox rose to prominence through savvy marketing, even creating clothes for figures like President Millard Fillmore. Most notably, Michael Failen, a billiards champion, and his son-in-law Hugh Colander patented an improved pool table cushion, mass-produced their high-quality tables, and became wealthy, even supplying President Ulysses S. Grant with a custom table. Anbinder's most significant discovery was the extent to which these famine Irish, often portrayed as permanently stuck in low-wage jobs, actively overcame discrimination and lack of education to climb the socioeconomic ladder through their immense resourcefulness and entrepreneurial drive. 1859 FIVE POINTS
