While many founders chase the latest trends, Yannis Ouzounopoulos saw opportunity in an overlooked $4 billion category – and struck breakfast gold. Yannis is the founder and CEO of Olyra, a fast-growing brand of organic breakfast bars and biscuits inspired by his family's fifth-generation flour milling business in Greece. Launched in 2017, Olyra was born from Yannis' conviction that the U.S. breakfast bar aisle – vast but stagnant – was ripe for disruption. His solution: better-for-you products made with ancient grains, authentic ingredients and significantly less sugar. That vision proved prescient. Today, Olyra's products can be found in thousands of retail locations across the U.S., including Whole Foods, Sprouts, Harris Teeter and The Fresh Market. In this episode, Yannis shares the origin story behind Olyra and how both free and paid data sources helped shape the brand's overall business approach, including product development, shelf strategy and consumer messaging. He also dives into why he prioritizes long-term thinking, the importance of staying close to the customer, and the ongoing process of refining taste and brand positioning. Show notes: 0:25: Yannis Ouzounopoulos, Founder & CEO, Olyra –  Yannis shares his journey from Greece to New York City, detailing the early challenges of selling to independent retailers and his eventual strategic pivot to focus on larger retail chains. He explains how Olyra began as a diversification effort within his family's heritage business, ultimately evolving into a brand designed to fill a white space in the $4 billion breakfast and snack bar category. Drawing on free and low-cost market data, Yannis crafted a more informed strategy, learning from early missteps—such as overly ambitious velocity projections. He emphasizes that product development is a continuous process, shaped by layered consumer feedback used to fine-tune taste, texture, and packaging. Yannis also describes how Olyra's brand messaging evolved to highlight clearer nutritional benefits in response to shifting consumer preferences. He credits Charles Coristine of LesserEvil with inspiring his commitment to long-term brand building and a relentless focus on taste excellence.

Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says, "I don't want to tell you what you can and cannot eat. I just want you to know what you're eating."   Today's episode is about providing solutions to help you cut out the middleman and take control so you KNOW what you're feeding your family - and can support local, small family farms along the way.   In this information-packed episode of the Nutritional Therapy & Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz welcomes Alexia Kulwiec, Executive Director of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund, for a solution-focused conversation on how to legally source raw milk, pasture-raised meat, and nutrient-dense whole foods directly from local farmers.   We're not just talking about what not to eat—this is your real-world roadmap to clean food access in a system that often seems stacked against us and our access to nutrient-dense foods from local farmers.   From raw cheese loopholes and herdshares to custom meat processing, cottage food laws, and buying club tips, we explore how families can cut through red tape and bring real, nutrient-dense, ethically raised, and legally protected food to the table. Whether you've been making “egg deals in gas station parking lots” or just trying to figure out how to find a trustworthy source for raw milk, this episode is both empowering and practical.   Alexia explains:   Why it's so hard to legally access raw dairy and clean meat in many states How federal and state food laws are designed to favor industrial agriculture over local farms What legal loopholes consumers and small farms are using (herdshares, custom exempt meat, cottage food laws) The truth about organic certification (and why it's not the gold standard) What you need to know about raw cheese, pastured poultry, and produce exemptions Where to start if you're ready to vote with your dollar and support regenerative food systems   You'll also hear actionable tips on:   Navigating state-specific food laws Understanding the difference between “grass-fed” and “pasture-raised” How to talk to your farmer—and what questions to ask How to legally join or form a food buying club, private membership association, or herdshare   This episode is packed with legal insight, food freedom advocacy, and practical strategies for any parent, health-seeker, or food rebel looking to build a better grocery cart—one local farm at a time.     Visit Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund Online: https://www.farmtoconsumer.org/   Join/Donate: https://members.farmtoconsumer.org/general/register_member_type.asp Sign-up for Action Alerts: https://www.farmtoconsumer.org/actionalerts/   Please give us a 5-star review, hit subscribe, and come back next week.

#227: Kate Mendenhall, Executive Director of the Organic Farmers Association, breaks down the strategic grassroots campaign to keep organic standards rooted in soil, transparency, and trust. As corporate influence grows, Kate outlines how OFA is working to ensure the organic label still reflects its original values and that farmer voices are always at the forefront.https://realorganicproject.org/kate-mendenhall-defending-organic-integrity-nationwide-227Kate Mendenhall is the Executive Director of the Organic Farmers Association, whose aim is to "provide a strong and unified national voice for domestic certified organic producers." An Iowa native, Kate has returned to her home state to pursue this work, while also operating a small, diversified farm alongside her family. Kate was formerly the ED of NOFA-NY and as she describes in this interview, has traveled extensively around the globe to learn the craft of organic farming.The Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/directoryWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

What do TikTok, Target, and African superfoods have in common? They've all played a role in the remarkable resurgence of Kuli Kuli — the pioneering superfood brand founded in 2014 that introduced moringa to the U.S. market and is now carried in over 11,000 retail stores nationwide. Once known primarily for its moringa products, Kuli Kuli has since expanded its portfolio and reintroduced itself with vibrant new packaging, a broader superfood lineup, and a renewed focus on flavor and accessibility. Now found on shelves at Walmart, Target, and other major retailers, Kuli Kuli has traded in-store demos for a digital-first marketing strategy, including leveraging moringa's surprise moment of virality on TikTok.  In this episode, founder and CEO Lisa Curtis shares the behind-the-scenes story of Kuli Kuli's evolution — from navigating pandemic-era disruptions to spearheading a bold brand refresh that helped redefine the company's mission and identity. She also unpacks what it took to guide the brand to profitability, why shedding the “moringa-only” label was crucial, and what she sees as the ultimate key to long-term success in the crowded wellness space. Show notes: 0:25: Lisa Curtis, Founder & CEO, Kuli Kuli – Lisa recaps the origins of Kuli Kuli, which began as a Peace Corps-inspired effort to introduce moringa to the U.S. market and support female farmers globally, and why the company underwent a rebranding to embrace a broader identity as a vibrant, climate-smart superfood company. She also discusses the entrepreneurial rollercoaster of a 10-year journey marked by early momentum, a major COVID-related revenue dip, and now a resurgence with projected revenue doubling. Lisa also explains how Kuli Kuli's product innovation has matured, emphasizing a “fail fast” mindset, and how the company benefited from a surge in awareness about moringa and responded by producing its own science-backed educational content. She also admits that while the taste of moringa powder is not exactly a crowd-pleaser, Kuli Kuli has made strides to ensure their products either taste great on their own. Lisa also shares her personal strategies for managing entrepreneurial stress, including prioritizing health, travel, and cultural connection, why, despite being a capable fundraiser, she doesn't want to raise more equity funding and her belief that the key to startup longevity is persistence.

Los Angeles is burning down as violent anti-ICE protests are under way, but the media are doing their best to spin the protests as “mostly peaceful.” Glenn reacts to the media's response while discussing the extent of the violence that's happening in California. Glenn also goes through some of the violent illegal immigrants who were arrested during the ICE raids that the violent protesters were against. Glenn's chief researcher, Jason Buttrill, joins Glenn and Stu to review some of the most violent footage from Los Angeles. Does the president have the authority to send in the National Guard? Under very specific circumstances, yes. Glenn makes the case why these L.A. riots fall under those circumstances. Glenn explains why he believes all this is just the beginning of a planned color revolution. Are all these riots and protests being funded by California tax dollars? President Trump is being sued by the Democrats for sending the National Guard to California. Blaze Media national correspondent Julio Rosas joins to discuss what he's seeing on the ground in the L.A. riots. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
