Part CEO, part personal development wonk, and part biohacker info geek, Thom King is a self-confessed serial entrepreneur. While his favorite book list contains many success-oriented and personal-development classics, the traditional definition of achieving success (e.g. make a lot of money) is not what inspires or motivates King. He follows more of a “you aren't doing well unless you're also doing some good” line of thinking. King's company has been built around the simple principle of “do the right thing.” In 1999, Thom's personal passion for food and his concern over the explosion of metabolic disease led him to found Steviva Brands, now known as Icon Foods, with a mission to stem the tide of “diabesity” by providing consumers healthy alternatives to sugar. In recent years, his passion for food and optimal health have intersected with his embrace of a ketogenic (low carb, high fat) diet. Thom's latest project is a line of ketogenic condiments intended to help more people successfully adopt a healthier lifestyle. In this episode Michaela and Thom talk about the weakening of society through processed foods, and how to get unaddicted.

An accomplished businessman, television producer, filmmaker, and author, Thom King began his life journey in Colorado (via Wisconsin), where he studied marketing at the University of Colorado. He graduated from Chadwick University with a BA in environmental studies, then went on to attend graduate school at the University of California, Los Angeles, where he studied intellectual property law. In 1992, King founded Southwest Multimedia as an incubator for developing businesses that fit the vision and sensibilities upon which the company was founded — to support aspiring entrepreneurs and small businesses in cutting-edge, zero-carbon-footprint technologies and concepts. In 1999, King founded Steviva Brands. When not envisioning a new stevia blend to help replace the amount of sucrose and high-fructose corn syrup used in food products and food prep, Thom spends much of his time learning and thinking about people's dietary needs and ways to help improve what we eat. If King isn't coming up with new and exciting ways to prepare food for friends and family, he is working on a ketogenic diet.

In this deep conversation Thom explains how to shift your mindset quickly and how to let go of fear and anxiety - two nemeses of the present. Don't miss this one! Key points 02:40 - Working on any job position, no matter how bad it is and how much you hate it, can be useful to develop a good work ethic which will help you later in your career. 04:30 - Consider daily journaling as a habit. Plenty of entrepreneurs mention doing this to relax, “meditate”, or simply to keep track of their goals. 08:38 - Business philosophy for long-term success 12:58 - Self-development is a constant process. You can't have one foot in the future, the other one in the past and expect to be present, so focus on now! 17:10 - Let go of fear and anxiety. Fear and anxiety live in the future, they don't happen right now and if you're absolutely present, you won't suffer from fear and anxiety.

From working to foster a strong cross-functional team at LTF, to learning to respect and trust the expertise of her teammates, Stephanie possesses a strong self-awareness of her internal strengths. In this preview, Stephanie and Kimberly catch up in 8 months of life and work and consider the next steps. Our connection is an example of how important networking events are to expand our circles and relationships, but the honest and vulnerable conversations that we get to have among a few are the marks of connections that go beyond professional introductions.

Kiran Bains is a relatively new graduate with a masters degree in nutrition science and owner of a nutrition consulting business . Kiran and Kimberly connected through LinkedIn and decided to record our introductory call as a conversation starter for younger professionals. Kiran has a passion for introducing nutrition science majors to a wider variety of career opportunities than are typically described. She also has a passion for marketing and understanding how marketing teams could leverage nutrition expertise and how nutrition professionals could market their messages to engage consumers. While this conversation is personal in the sense of talking about one individual's career opportunities, it's also an example of how our friendships and network can be useful for connections beyond our own career advancement. I also share some strong opinions about personal brand awareness, because with nutrition backgrounds, it's vital to maintain brand integrity when associating with product brands.

Peak Performers | Tools, Strategies & Psychology to Get Things Done
Part CEO, part personal development wonk, and part biohacker info geek, Thom King is a self-confessed serial entrepreneur. While his favorite book list contains many success-oriented and personal-development classics, the traditional definition of achieving success (e.g. make a lot of money) is not what inspires or motivates King. He follows more of a “you aren’t doing well unless you’re also doing some good” line of thinking. King’s company has been built around the simple principle of “do the right thing.” In 1999, Thom’s personal passion for food and his concern over the explosion of the metabolic disease led him to found Steviva Brands, now known as Icon Foods, with a mission to stem the tide of “diabesity” by providing consumers healthy alternatives to sugar. In recent years, his passion for food and optimal health have intersected with his embrace of a ketogenic (low carb, high fat) diet. Thom’s latest project is a line of ketogenic condiments intended to help more people successfully adopt a healthier lifestyle.

Founder and CEO of Steviva Brands and Icon Foods, Thom King shares when he said he felt like a fraud. He headed companies that promoted healthy foods, yet he was a self-professed sugar addict. One day in 2016, the pain of it all exceeded the pleasure of maintaining his food addiction and poor health, and he made a change. Since then, he authored Guy Gone Keto: How to Lose Weight, Feel Great, and Achieve Lifelong Fitness. Today, Thom's intention is to make an impact on metabolic disease, or what he calls, “diabesity,” promote healthy living and to share that knowledge by paying it forward to others.
