Renee Dunn is the Founder and CEO of Amazi Foods, a mindful food company that makes unique and very tasty fruit snacks. While attending Wesleyan University, Renee had the opportunity to study in Uganda. She was struck by the local entrepreneurial sector and their delicious tropical fruits, so she opted to later return and conduct her thesis research on the state of entrepreneurship in Kampala. After graduating, Renee interned at The Aspen Institute where she focused on entrepreneurial ecosystem analysis. Combining her passion for healthy food with her development experience and her entrepreneurial spirit, she founded Amazi Foods in 2016 to reduce food waste, create job opportunities, and encourage business development. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn: Renee Dunn's academic background and how she got started in entrepreneurship What Renee learned about the fruits business in Uganda and why she chose to work with plantain, jackfruit, and papaya What Renee did to provide a solution to Uganda's local fruit farmers and how her company's supply chain works How Renee started distributing her products to Sprouts and how she identified her customer persona How Amazi Foods has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic Renee talks about growing the e-commerce side of her business and how that has impacted the business Renee's future plans for Amazi Foods and the benefits of partnering with local farmers when building a food brand The biggest challenges Renee had to face growing her business In this episode… While in college, a visit to Kampala, Uganda introduced Renee Dunn to some exotic African fruits. She loved the country's jackfruit, plantains, and other fruits that are not easy to find in the US. She also discovered that despite a buzzing entrepreneurial spirit in the city, most of these fruits were sold in few outlets and limited to a few customers. To help solve this problem for the Ugandan farmers and help bring these exotic fruits to the US, Renee decided to start a fruit snacks company. She had the fruits sourced and processed in Uganda, and then had them shipped and distributed to US stores. Although she faced a myriad of challenges, her persistence bore fruit and now her products are found in many Sprouts stores. Renee Dunn, the Founder and CEO of Amazi Foods, is Steve Cleere's guest in this episode of the NexxtLevel Podcast, where she talks about her journey building a snacks business out of exotic African fruits. Renee explains how her company makes the snacks, how she handles the logistics of transporting them from Uganda to the US, and how she has been expanding her market through online and retail stores.

At just 22 years old, Renee was named the head women’s golf coach at the University of Oregon, where she built the program from the ground up to a national championship team in just 6 years.

Why We Love Renee: Renee Linnell graduated Magna Cum Laude with a double degree, traveled to nearly fifty countries before she turned 35, was a surf/bikini model and a professional Argentine Tango dancer, started 5 different companies, and got an MBA from New York University. She also spent close to seven years in a Buddhist cult and ended up severely brainwashed. In her new memoir, The Burn Zone, Renee discusses her journey into "deranged and damaged" and her awakening on the other side. Her key message is: “Our difference is our destiny, and that when we stop trying to hide the parts of us that make us different, we will truly soar!" On the Pod, We Discuss: How Renee eventually found herself brainwashed in a cult, after initially wandering into a meditation seminar The parallels between being in a cult and a toxic relationship What drew her into the cult and why the leader and her philosophy was so compelling for Renee How we’re taught over the course of growing up that we’re not worthy, and how it affects us as adults Tantric Buddhist Mysticism and the other guiding principles of the cult that Renee was part of The major red flags that popped up along the way and how she trained herself to ignore her intuition The specific distinction between an uplifting, spiritual community and a group that can potentially be harmful Spiritual narcissism, and why it can lead to self-righteousness and ultimately a form of hell How the spiritual and wellness world can promote adhering to perfectionism and unrealistic beauty standards instead of actually feeling good Toxic relationships and what Renee learned about love throughout her journey How Renee ultimately discovered her purpose, and how we can work toward worthiness and love without joining a cult and going through a similar experience Why cults or other types of organizations based on power structures are so prevalent in our increasingly tumultuous world The near death experience and the learning moment that was a catalyst for Renee’s healing process and understanding she had given up her personal power Akashic Records and what we can learn from doing a reading What it took for Renee to rebuild her life and how she returned to her true self and her intuition Writing as a cathartic part of her recovery and why she decided to write the book And much more Helpful Links: Visit Renee’s website Follow Renee on Instagram and Facebook Get a copy of Renee’s book, The Burn Zone Listen to The Burn Zone on Audible Featured image credit: In Her Image Photography The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz Elizabeth Locey, who Renee did her Akashic Records reading Brené Brown For more information and to view full show notes, visit wellnesslately.com/podcast

Renee Wang the founder and CEO of CastBox is here to talk about how CastBox connects users with podcasts, radio, audio books, talk shows and more in one app. This episode will be an interesting look into some of the opportunities in the podcast space. I have not been a big fan of more podcast directories or apps, yet Renee is willing to come on the show and answer the question of does the world need another podcast directory or app. Renee is based in San Francisco. Tip of the Week: It's always easier to set the audio up correctly from the beginning than to try and fix it later. It's always smarter to set everything up the best possible way to begin with to get the best possible results. You can always edit and change things from there. Interview with Renee Wang the CEO of CastBox: [04:23] Renee majored in psychology, but she taught herself how to code and then ended up working at Google for four years. She has experience with apps on a global scale. [05:13] Renee quit Google to go back to China and code the first version of CastBox. [05:44] Renee was an OPG Account Manager at Google. It was her job to help developers to promote and monetize their apps. [06:46] Renee sold her house for seed money for the project. She has now closed a B round. [07:40] How at the end of 2016 a lot of investors are now interested in audio again. Because of the audio connectivity between Alexa, Google Home, and car connectivity. It is believed that by the end of 2020 all cars will have Internet connections. [08:47] Now investors are proactively looking for her business. She has now closed four investment rounds in a year. [09:53] The app will help content providers augment information. Other investors are looking for a technology play. Both sides are important from the aggregation and the technology. [11:56] How there is still an opportunity for audio aggregators the same way that when Yahoo existed there was still a door for Google to break in to. [12:31] How CastBox is organizing audio, understanding text, tags, and time stamps. It can search to the specified minute and second of the content that the person wants. Renee still feels that there is room for improved technology to create a better audio experience. Including the ability to search inside of audio. [14:07] The CastBox search feature will give timestamped results from a search. [15:12] Audio is like a Pandora's box. You never know what is inside. We are trying to open the Pandora's box of audio and make content easier to find. [15:56] The challenges of putting content into your smart device. CastBox is leveraging technology to reorganize content and give users the ability to access it. [16:56] CastBox is trying to index all available open source content. [18:03] Amazon's S3 transcription service. [18:46] The last round raised $16 million total. There are several ways to monetize. They are co producing original content and providing distribution. [19:56] They are also looking at a premium revenue share model. They are number 1 in Korea. [20:54] How they are trying to conquer the audio portion of AI as well as indexing and providing better services to content providers and listeners. [22:14] There are still more opportunities for startups to grow. [23:25] How it is important for content providers to grow their audience by having their work more easily available, and it is easier to monetize globally and worldwide including specific niche content. [27:37] How Renee is on email every day to see the user experience and make CastBox better, and CastBox is constantly being updated to upgrade the user experience including to help visually impaired people. [29:28] They are really flexible and moving fast to understand needs and create a better user experience. [31:01] How Paul is well-known in the industry, and Renee was interested in Paul's input.

Shannon is excited to welcome the dynamic duo Paloma Neuman and Renee Gauthier, experienced yoga retreat planners. If you've played with the idea of planning a retreat, this episode will give you a sense of the process involved in planning and will perhaps inspire you to plan a group yoga retreat yourself. Renee Gauthier is based in San Diego with her husband and daughter and has taught yoga for 10 years. Traveling to many different places to teach, along while navigating a period of loss in her personal life left Renee emotionally and physically depleted. This led her to make the choice to live her life in a more conscious manner. Yoga retreats appealed to Renee because she wanted to provide space for others to heal and live wholeheartedly. Paloma Neuman lives in San Diego with her husband in son and much like Renee found herself feeling depleted and looking for a new focus in her career. Paloma had a powerful connection to yoga and while she chose not to teach yoga, the practice has become a life passion. Another major driving force in Paloma's life is travel. Describing her desire for travel in her bones, she merged yoga with travel to create My Dharma Yoga. Paloma serendipitously met Renee when she attended a yoga class and they immediately connected. The two began working on events and benefits that were both successful and fun finding they complimented one another. Out of this feeling Rock Your Yoga Retreat was born. Now, Renee and Paloma not only plan and lead retreats, they help others do what they have found so fulfilling using many tools such as workshops, online courses, and the Facebook group Travel, Teach and Thrive for Yoga Teachers. 8:00 How Renee and Paloma got started with yoga retreats 19:15 Benefits of hosting a yoga retreat 22:30 Starting with smaller retreats 24:50 5 Key Elements of Leading a yoga retreat 26:55 Who is your ideal attendee? What do they want and what do they need? 30:35 What helps to make the planning and decision-making easier? 32:30 The retreat begins way before the first day when everyone meets 34:50 Marketing plan for your retreat 36:10 VIP wait list for your retreat 37:25 Budgeting and pricing your yoga retreat for success; list of retreat expenses, be aware of “sneaky” expenses 46:05 Why retreats planned every year are so beneficial “the bigger picture” 48:45 How do you know if you are ready to host a yoga retreat? 53:30 Can you be on retreat when you are hosting one? 57:00 How you can work with Paloma and Renee 1:00:05 Where Paloma and Renee would love to go on their next retreat Links 5 Key Elements of Leading a Yoga Retreat Rock Your Yoga Retreat Travel, Teach & Thrive for Yoga Teachers FB Group Email: contact@rockyouryogaretreat.com Maclean's Article: Why Canada is the only country in the world to celebrate Victoria Day by Alan Parker
