Erik Kiker, Chief Messaging Officer at tolovethebrand.com, knows how to connect the two and never skip a beat. We go deep into the psyche of how brands are sometimes inadvertently turning consumers off because of the discouraging messages they're sending out. Messaging makes a difference.

Are short and sweet ingredient lists the latest health trend in snack foods? In this episode of the Xtalks Food Podcast, Sydney introduces the team to That's It Nutrition, the maker of snacks with six ingredients or fewer. Hear more from Sydney's interview with the company's founder and CEO, Dr. Lior Lewensztain, where they discuss the brand's philosophy, products and trend-setting abilities in the health foods space.Also in this episode, Sydney discusses PepsiCo's latest sale of its juice business, including Tropicana and Naked juice brands, for $3.3 billion. PepsiCo said it would use the proceeds to focus on healthier snack and beverage offerings. The team wonders whether the sale had more to do with declining sales than it did the “unhealthy” nature of juice, and discusses PepsiCo's seemingly hypocritical decision to sell its juice brands to focus on its core portfolio of sodas.

A family-owned business that operates two stores focused on nutritional supplements, body care products and organic foods and beverages, Cambridge Naturals has cultivated a loyal customer base within the Boston area and has been recognized for its unique and constantly rotating product selection. As part of our conversation, Kanter spoke about the history and evolution of the retailer and the factors that determine its selection.

She also explained what she looks for in a brand’s backstory and what would make her less inclined to stock a new product, why Cambridge Naturals is consistently rotating its selection and why the company tries to be on “the cutting edge, but not bleeding edge” of emerging trends. Later, she expressed optimism that the FDA would provide concrete guidance about CBD-infused foods and beverages and how entrepreneurs interested in partnering with the retailer can connect with her team.

Show Notes When someone asks what you do, what do you tell people?: I’m the CEO of farmhouse culture. I’m paid to run this company You’ve had multiple CEO roles. What does CEO mean to you?: The responsibility to have the final say on any decision. The CEO’s role is to first recruit the best talent and be the quality control person How do you hire the best people?: Later in my career, I’ve created a great network. When I work with great people, I hire them. I also like to “date” prospects. If I could spend some time over the course of weeks with them, I get to learn more about them. How do you meet people?: Trade shows work. I’ve also taught Entrepreneurship in Northwestern and I tell people to talk to people when you’re on the plane or even at tasting booths. I have a goal to meet people in the industry. LinkedIn helps a ton too. Pepsi ConAgra Did you ever think that you’d get into food?: Not really but after my MBA, I was interested in CPG Kimberley Clark: Toilet paper company Marine Corps ConAgra Foods. Managing the Parque Brands – Margarine Why did you jump into your own company?: I worked on Naked Juice and then I had an opportunity to start a company. Solixer, a sparkling water with a splash of fruit juice wand botanicals. It was in 2008 but it was hard because the Beverage is super competitive. What was the most shocking thing about starting your own company?: You have to do everything. In the corporate world, you don’t even know how the product is shipped. Then after your job, you kept on jumping into CEO roles Tell me more about Farmhouse Culture?: Brand was started in 2008 by Kathrine Lurker. She was doing it on her own for a while and then brought on more investment. I came in when the company was plateauing, which is usually the case with new leadership. I like fixing things and I like having a gun to my head We’re now pruning the bush with getting rid of old products. We’re also rebranding and launching things like chips. I joined the company because the brand is super strong. Gut Shot Hard Things About Hard Things How do you transition in certain stages?: If your team is comfortable, then they’re losing and you have to make them uncomfortable to get them to grow How did you go into the Marine Corps?: I was recruited during college. However, I knew that it would be beneficial no matter what. My Food job Rocks: I love doing 100 different things because all of the things are interesting. For food, it not only gives you instant gratification but also to help the planet. With this company, we provide healthy food too, which is a plus. What type of trends are you noticing?: There’s a ton of new, healthy products but it’s hard to communicate to the consumers Most advocates are becoming food producers Plant-based meat is getting huge but is it healthy?

I can get information from everywhere, even Shark Tank Any advice for anyone who wants to go into the food industry?: dabble in it. Go to a company and ask “hey can I help you out?”. Find out what you’re passionate about. Where can we find you for advice?: Hit me up through LinkedIn or Farmhouse Culture’s website.

Misty Copeland made history when she became the first African American female principal dancer of the American Ballet Theatre, but her ascent to become one of the most iconic dancers of her time wasn't easy. She first found ballet when she was living in a motel room with her single mother and five siblings, practically homeless and lacking food. Having dealt with food insecurity from a young age, Copeland is now a leading voice in the Naked Juice and Wholesome Wave #DrinkGoodDoGood social media campaign, which aims to bring fresh, high-quality produce to families across the country. I sat down with Copeland to talk about this incredibly important campaign, and we ended up covering a whole lot more, including how she deals with body image issues as a dancer, what balance means to her, and the unconventional approach to meditation that keeps her sane. Whether you're a die-hard Copeland fan or are new to her story, we guarantee you'll walk away inspired.

John Legend is, well, a legend in his time. The youngest and the first black man to win an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony award (the coveted EGOT), Legend is also husband to internet sensation and cookbook author Chrissy Teigen and dad to Miles and Luna. It was the birth of his two children that first inspired Legend to think more deeply about the plight of other, less fortunate children in the US and around the world, which led to partnering with Naked Juice and Wholesome Wave as part of their #DrinkGoodDoGood social media campaign—which aims to increase access to healthy food by donating produce to food insecure areas. I sat down with Legend to talk about the initiative. We also discussed his own personal healthy habits, how he stays fit even with a hectic travel schedule, and how being a parent has changed him as a person. This episode is a must-listen if you're interested in knowing more about the man behind the beautiful music.

Available On: iTunes | Google Play | Stitcher | Spotify Jimmy Rosenberg was looking for a way to make some dough in the summer of 1983. He got this idea…sell juice on the beach. So he got some fruit, blended it in his kitchen, and started selling the juice by the cup (poured from a jug) on the beach in Santa Monica. Little did he know that inauspicious start would lead to the formation of two mega juice companies – Naked Juice and Evolution Fresh. His first attempt, a pretty impressive first attempt by the way, was a company called The Naked Juice Company. After growing it to a size that allowed him to serve most of California, he sold it and got out of the juice business entirely. But not for long. Two years later, with a renewed commitment to delivering the highest quality juice possible to consumers, he started Evolution Fresh. He steered this company for 19 years before being acquired by Starbucks in 2011. Before I sat down with Jimmy, I didn’t tell him that I’d be asking him for photos and a bio, or that I’d be posting his story about this podcast on social media. He’s a very private person. He’s never been on social media and has never shared these incredible stories about the two companies he’s championed. Fortunately for us all, and in spite of this, he agreed to proceed. I’m incredibly grateful for his willingness to share his story, and trust me, you will be too! From Andy: Before I sat down with Jimmy, I didn’t tell him that I’d be asking him for photos and a bio, or that I’d be posting his story about this podcast on social media. He’s a very private person. He’s never been on social media and has never shared these incredible stories about the two companies he’s championed. Fortunately for us all, and in spite of this, he agreed to proceed. I’m incredibly grateful for his willingness to share his story, and trust me, you will be too! The thing I relate to most about Jimmy – he’s just an ordinary guy like you and me. But for some reason, he was willing to listen, to experiment, to put in the hard work, to be open to learning on the job, and to be steadfast in his commitment to never sacrifice the quality of his product. These have all be part of his journey, all part of the reason he’s been so successful, twice! Listen. Love. Learn. This story has it all. Enjoy!

Please join us this Wednesday, February 28, 2018 at 4:00 p.m. PST for a live show with host Denise Messenger. Our special guest is Lindsey Bristol, a Registered Dietitian and Nutritionist, who will discuss the Swanson's A-Z Guide to Modern Wellness and the importance of Vitamin D. She is a nationally recognized registered dietitian and nutritionist with a soft spot for guilty pleasure food. As a professional speaker, author and blogger, Bristol empowers people to take charge of their health by finding the balance between the pleasure and nourishment in food. Her philosophy is that you should take care of your body because it’s the only permanent home you have. It’s what inspired her to pursue a career in nutrition and, ultimately, led her to Swanson Health Products. Prior to arriving at Swanson, Bristol honed her nutrition expertise by working with some of the world’s most well-known brands, including PepsiCo, Tropicana, Quaker Oats, Naked Juice, O.N.E. Coconut Water, Dole Juice, Red Bull and more, both in the United States, and abroad. Her expertise has been tapped for Redbook, Nutrition Today, The Dr. Oz Show, and more.
Over the past few weeks, you’ve probably seen plenty of your favorite social media personalities post a photo of themselves with a fruit or veggie and hashtagging it #DrinkGoodDoGood. Wondering what that’s all about? Let us explain. Nearly 24 million Americans live in food deserts and don’t have access to affordable, quality, fresh fruits and vegetables. But Naked Juice is trying to help change this. For the third year in a row, Naked Juice is partnering with Wholesome Wave – an organization that helps create affordable access to fresh, local and regional food to those in need – to provide fresh produce where there is none. So every time someone posts a “fruit selfie” with the #DrinkGoodDoGood hashtag, Naked Juice will donate the equivalent of 10 pounds of produce to neighbors in need — up to 500,000 pounds in total through October 15. To help raise awareness, Naked Juice and Wholesome Wave are teaming up with local ambassadors across the country to help shine a light on the issue of food deserts. Among the ambassadors joining the effort are Wholesome Wave board member and D.C.-based chef Jose Andres, musician Common, Los Angeles chef Michael Voltaggio and San Francisco chef Tyler Florence. In Miami, this cause hits close to home affecting nearly 250,000 Miami-Dade county residents. That’s enough people to line Ocean Drive over 36 times. Locally, the campaign has tapped chef ambassadors, CENA by Michy’s Michelle Bernstein and Alter’s Brad Kilgore, to help get the word out. In the video above check out Brad discussing the campaign and why the cause is important to him.

Paleo blogger and cookbook author Tammy Credicott and health enthusiast Steve Parke join our host Dietitian Cassie along with special guest co-host and registered dietitian Eliana Witchell today in Episode 107 of "Low-Carb Conversations With Jimmy Moore & Friends!" It's the special day each week that we set aside to take a closer look at some recent health headlines from a low-carb, Paleo, and real food perspective. There are so many voices out there opining about what you should think about diet and healthy living, but it's good to get educated thoughts and ideas from various people in the alternative nutritional health community. It can get nauseating hearing a monolithic message about health from mainstream news sources. But we are committed to bucking that trend and giving you the "other side" of these stories so you can draw your own conclusions about what these headlines mean for you. If you like what you hear and want to help support us in our efforts here at "Low-Carb Conversations," then to make a donation to keeping this show on the air. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Jimmy Moore is steadily making progress on his highly-anticipated August 5, 2014 book release and can't wait to get back to podcasting again. But in the meantime, our co-host is still doing a spectacular job choosing some pretty amazing special guest co-hosts and today is no different as she welcomes in a real foods-based RD from Toronto, Ontario named . These two incredible registered dietitians are joined by guest friends Paleo cookbook author (author of , , and ) and Steve Parke who doesn't have a website or any social media pages, but has so many great things to share as you'll hear in today's episode.

Plus, we've got a great recipe from Tammy at the end for as well as other health and cooking tips just for you.
