Roxana Saidi is the founder and CEO of Táche. However, before she founded her pistachio-milk brand, Saidi graduated with a degree in marketing and got her first job out of college in public relations in Los Angeles. She then founded a social media agency that eventually grew into a creative and brand strategy agency called Rx Social. She later moved to New York and transitioned into consulting, but while on a trip with her family, she was struck by an idea for a brand offering nut milk made from pistachios, which were a staple in her Middle Eastern household as a child. Her research proved that pistachio milk could be more sustainable than almond milk and more nutritious than oat milk, so she started Táche by experimenting in her kitchen and launched the brand in 2020. Táche quickly found its way into high-end cafés and grocery stores, such as Erewhon and Sprouts, and the brand recently entered Whole Foods with its three-ingredient pistachio milk.

Isabella Hughes is the cofounder and chief revenue officer of the sour-gummy brand Better Sour. However, before founding her candy company, Hughes, who was born and raised in Hawaii, began her career in the arts, curating and coordinating exhibitions for a variety of organizations in the United States and UAE. She always had an interest in entrepreneurship, so in 2014, she started her first company—a Middle Eastern–inspired ice cream brand called Lezzetli. Around the same time, she came up with the idea for her second business, a Hawaii-grown herbal iced tea brand called Shaka Tea, which was acquired in 2022. After the acquisition, Hughes and her lifelong best friend Semira Nikou cofounded Better Sour. As daughters of Iranian immigrants who both grew up in Hawaii, Hughes and Nikou used their shared cultural backgrounds to inspire their flavors. Today, Better Sour is in over 4000 stores, including Erewhon, Whole Foods, and Sprouts.

Building a food brand from a health crisis, a farmers market, and one very big fire — that's the magic ✨ On The Kara Goldin Show, I sit down with Alysa Seeland, Founder and CEO of FOND Regenerative — the Texas-based company making verified regenerative bone broths, traditional demi-glace, and slow-rendered animal fats. We talk about how Alysa's journey began after serious digestive issues led to emergency surgery and the possibility of a second procedure. Instead, she chose to rebuild her health from the inside out, discovered the power of bone broth, and eventually sold her first jar of FOND at a Texas farmers market in 2015. We also get into how FOND grew from farmers markets to independent retail, e-commerce, and now more than 4,000 stores, including Sprouts, H-E-B, Whole Foods Market, and major and independent retailers nationwide. Alysa shares why regenerative agriculture matters, how FOND became the first in its category to earn Land to Market regenerative verification, and what it means to build a product line that supports U.S. family farms. Plus, Alysa opens up about the 2022 facility fire that destroyed FOND's manufacturing capacity while the company was attempting to raise a Series A — and how that setback forced a major pivot. She shares why she moved to a co-manufacturer, paused fundraising, and focused on building a profitable company instead.

What happens when a founder decides to pull a product off 400 store shelves not because it failed, but because scaling the wrong economics is a fast track to killing a company. In this masterclass on CPG entrepreneurship, Omar Atia, Co-Founder & CEO of ZeroCarb LYFE, joins host Rose Hamilton, CEO of Compass Rose Ventures, to break down the mechanics of building a resilient, high-value enterprise.  Omar traces his evolution from corporate R&D to startup leadership, delivering a candid blueprint for navigating the hidden traps of rapid expansion, commercializing novel manufacturing processes, and making disciplined financial trade-offs. Key Takeaways & Business Frameworks: * Unit Economics Over Top-Line Growth: Why exiting 400 Sprouts locations was the smartest move for long-term enterprise value, proving that revenue without margin is just noise. * Bridging R&D and Commercial Scale: The operational reality of transforming a four-ingredient, kitchen-table innovation into a scalable, patented manufacturing system. * Positioning for Market Realities: How tracking customer behavior led ZeroCarb LYFE to pivot its core value proposition from "low-carb" to "highest protein-to-calorie ratio," proving why messaging must evolve alongside the market. * Omnichannel Strategy Demystified: A tactical breakdown of how to use direct-to-consumer for immediate feedback loops, food service for margin stability, and selective retail for broader reach. * Capitalizing on Structural Consumer Shifts: How to build product strategies around macro health shifts, including the rise of GLP-1 medications, by prioritizing high-protein, calorie-efficient nutrition. Whether you are scaling a CPG brand, refining your go-to-market strategy, or evaluating channel profitability, this interview serves as a practical guide to operational discipline and sustainable growth.

Alysa Seeland grew up on her grandparents' dairy farm in northern Illinois, chased a Division I volleyball scholarship through high school, and pivoted to speech and debate when she realized the sport wasn't going to be her path — placing second in the state of Illinois for original oratory her senior year. She studied communications and English literature at Gordon College, then cut her teeth in marketing at a Boston fintech startup that went through Techstars, learning firsthand how founders build trust with customers from scratch. Five months after her first son was born, a medical crisis nearly cost her life: emergency surgery, and a surgeon telling her to expect a second procedure within months. Instead of scheduling it, she found a decades-old book, "Nourishing Traditions," and went on a five-week bone broth diet. She never needed the second surgery — and went on to have five more sons. That personal healing became FOND. She sold her first jar at a farmers market in New Braunfels, Texas in 2015, working out of a commercial kitchen with her husband dropping her off, hoping she wouldn't come home in tears. She sold out. From there, FOND won a People's Choice Award through H-E-B's Quest for Texas Best program, landed a Whole Foods and Sprouts partnership, and grew into a genuinely regenerative supply chain built on direct farmer relationships instead of concentrate. In 2022, while raising a Series A, the co-manufacturer's facility burned down, wiping out over $4 million in product against a $150,000 insurance payout — all while she was pregnant with her sixth child. She walked away from the raise, put her own equity up as collateral for a $3 million rebuild loan, and launched an internal initiative called "Break It and Rebuild It" to get every channel profitable or cut it loose. Eighteen months later, FOND launched its tallow line and came back stronger. Today the company is profitable, debt-free of outside investment, growing 48% year over year, sold in H-E-B, Sprouts, Whole Foods, and now Albertsons — all while Alysa homeschools six boys. Charlie Clifford grew up a self-described "scrappy Jersey guy" in a town of 5,000 people, and won his first entrepreneurial prize in sixth grade: a watch, for out-hustling a classmate whose dad rigged the contest by buying magazine subscriptions wholesale for his medical office. After business school at Indiana University, he joined one of the first Peace Corps pilot programs recruiting MBAs — sent to Peru to work with small businesses under a Stanford professor who'd later teach Nike's Phil Knight. He came home with $10,000, invested it in a scrappy import operation selling handcrafted South American leather goods, and in 1975 broke off to start his own company focused on travel bags. He named it TUMI, after a Peruvian ceremonial knife. The brand's real breakthrough came when Clifford shifted from leather to black ballistic nylon — a fabric built for flak jackets — manufactured through a partnership with a small shop in Vidalia, Georgia. Bloomingdale's 59th Street flagship picking up the line put TUMI on the map. A conversation with a longtime retail partner, who told Clifford he had "so much product" he should just open his own stores, led to the "side-by-side" concept and eventually freestanding TUMI locations. By the 2000s, TUMI was the brand road warriors carried through airports worldwide, and it went public in 2012. Clifford left the company in 2004, when the private equity partners who'd taken majority ownership after 9/11 decided to sell. He spent years distributing other people's luggage brands before realizing he wanted control over the product and the story again. In 2017, he and his former TUMI EVP Larry Lein founded ROAM — American-made, hand-assembled, and built around a philosophy that's the opposite of TUMI's black-on-black uniform: total color customization, so no two suitcases look the same.

2026 marks 10 years since I moved to Iceland, which is honestly a little hard for me to believe. I can still remember stepping off the plane, starting work, and feeling like my brain was being bombarded with things that seemed foreign or strange. Even hearing Icelandic names like Ása, Björn, and Arnbjörn took some getting used to. https://youtu.be/AKL2qYEzEkU Fast-forward a decade and so many of those things don’t even register as unusual anymore. They’re just…life. Living in another country for this long has also made me realize how much our definition of “normal” is shaped by where we grow up. Things that initially made me think, People actually do this?! are now things I barely notice, and in some cases, things I do myself. Here are 10 things that have become normal to me after living in Iceland for 10 years. 1. Letting Babies Nap Outside This might be the biggest transformation of them all because I went from thinking this was absolutely bizarre to doing it with my own baby. I learned about babies napping outside when I first visited Iceland in the winter of 2013. At the time, I couldn’t understand how people could possibly be comfortable leaving a baby outside to sleep. Then I had a baby. Halli’s mom showed us how to bundle her up properly so she could be warm while getting fresh air outside, and it completely changed the game for us. At one point, she could sleep for around three hours outside when an indoor nap might only last about 20 minutes. It’s also something you regularly see in Iceland. You can walk through residential neighborhoods or even pass cafés in downtown Reykjavík and see a stroller outside with a sleeping baby while a parent or caregiver is nearby and checking on them. Years ago, that sight would have immediately caught my attention. Now? Completely normal. 2. Thinking 60°F (15°C) Is Warm New York Jewells would like a word with current Jewells. I moved to Iceland in June 2016, and I remember seeing Icelanders walking around in shorts, T-shirts, and sandals when it was about 60°F/15°C. Meanwhile, I had on long pants, sneakers, a sweater AND a jacket. I genuinely thought, What is wrong with these people? This isn’t warm! Then something happened. I acclimated! After experiencing Icelandic winters and then feeling the temperature climb again, 60°F started feeling legitimately warm. If it’s around 60°F, sunny and, this is important, there’s no wind? That’s practically tropical now.  3. Accepting That Icelandic Summer Is Not Guaranteed Growing up in New York, summer meant something. You knew it was going to get warm. Probably hot. Possibly way too hot! Iceland technically has four seasons, but I’ve joked that we really have two: winter and summer. Halli says it’s more like winter and fall.  The bigger adjustment was realizing that just because the calendar says “summer” doesn’t mean Iceland’s weather has agreed to participate. You can have rainy, windy and chilly stretches where there’s plenty of daylight but hardly any actual sunshine. There have been summers when I felt cold for what seemed like the entire season. It’s also no surprise that plenty of Icelanders escape somewhere warmer when Iceland isn’t delivering the summer weather they want. Tenerife, anyone? Icelandic summer exists. Whether it decides to show up is another question. 4. Living With 24-Hour Daylight The nearly endless daylight of Icelandic summer is something I absolutely love now. When I first moved here? Not so much. My brain could not understand why I was supposed to be sleeping when it looked like the middle of the day outside. I tried sleeping with eye masks, but I didn’t find them particularly comfortable, and I constantly felt energized to stay awake and do things. Eventually, though, my body adjusted. After a few years, I could sleep through Icelandic summers without thinking much about the daylight outside. Now I LOVE this part of living here. Being able to go outside incredibly late at night and still have a bright sky is one of those Icelandic experiences that still feels special, even though it has become normal. 5. Living With the Very Short Days in Winter Of course, Iceland likes extremes. If summer gives us almost endless daylight, winter gives us the opposite. Around the shortest day of the year, we get only about four hours of daylight. And while the days technically start getting longer again after the winter solstice, those changes happen slowly enough that the darkness can feel like it lasts forever. My first Icelandic winter was rough! I remember feeling like I was basically holding on until winter ended so I could finally experience that release of summer again. And then came May 2017. Winter seemed to be over. I had made it! And then…it snowed. In May! I was MAD.  I felt personally betrayed by Icelandic weather. After surviving winter, snow in May felt like the weather was playing games with me. Now, I understand that unexpected weather is simply part of living here. Snow showers can happen incredibly late in the season, and Icelandic weather has a mind of its own. Over the years, I’ve also figured out what helps me through the dark months: getting outside, exercising, keeping myself occupied and usually having a big project to work on. The first couple of winters required some serious adjustment. After that, I found a rhythm that works for me 6. Having Limited Produce Options This is one thing I still REALLY notice when I leave Iceland. The variety of fruits and vegetables available here can be limited compared with what I was accustomed to in the United States. Sometimes you have a couple varieties of apples. Around Christmas, clementines and mandarins are everywhere. Other things appear periodically, but Iceland is an island that imports a significant amount of its produce, so we’re simply not going to have the same selection you’d find in a massive American supermarket. And yes, you sometimes need to inspect that produce pretty carefully. Then I go back to the U.S. and walk into a Whole Foods or Sprouts and practically lose my mind. Peaches, plums, nectarines, different varieties of apples! KALE! The kale situation in Iceland particularly gets me because I’ve seen it grown here as decoration and I’m thinking, Can you please just put it in the grocery store so I can eat it?! Still, I’ve stopped viewing the limited selection as inherently negative. It’s simply part of living on an island. And when I travel, I appreciate the variety elsewhere that much more 7. The Icelandic Stare Ohhhh, the Icelandic stare! Coming from New York, staring at strangers is generally not something you do. Then I moved to Iceland and suddenly people were LOOKING at me. Not glancing, staring! I’ve been told part of this comes from the small-town nature of Icelandic society. People might look at someone because they’re trying to figure out whether they recognize them or know their family. That took some serious getting used to. There was one experience when I lived in Árbær where a woman drove past me while practically turning her head to continue staring at me. I remember wondering whether something was happening around me before realizing, Nope. She’s looking at me. As a Black woman walking through a suburban Icelandic neighborhood, I couldn’t know whether she was simply curious, trying to recognize me, surprised to see someone who looked like me, or something else entirely. Eventually, I developed a coping mechanism: Staring contests. If you’re going to stare at me, I’m staring back.

Getting your product on the shelf is only the first step. The real challenge is getting shoppers to notice it, try it, and buy it.In this episode, I sit down with Matthew Kubick of Local Demo Service to break down how CPG brands can use in-store demos to drive sales, learn from customers, and build stronger retail velocity.We talk about Matthew's simple four-step framework for turning samples into purchases, why founders should do their own demos early on, and how your strategy should change across retailers like Sprouts and Costco.If you're trying to improve sell-through, make the most of your retail launch, or turn sampling into actual sales, this episode is packed with practical strategies you can use.Startup to Scale is a podcast by Foodbevy, an online community to connect emerging food, beverage, and CPG founders to great resources and partners to grow their business.

Ed & Curt's “terrain” model: Bad inputs: ultra-processed food, toxins, poor sleep, chronic stress, lack of sun/movement Missing inputs: nutrient-dense foods, minerals, omega-3s, organ meats, sunlight, sleep, movement Example of amlodipine: lowers BP numbers but may increase arterial calcification (calcium channel blocker) For people unwilling to change lifestyle, drugs may offer marginal benefit—but not true health [0:41:05] – Curt's Book & Lab Markers That Matter More Than LDL-C Curt's book: “Beyond Cholesterol: The Ultimate Guide to Testing and Supplements for Heart Health” Emphasis on better markers: ApoB, LDL particle size/number, calcium score, etc. Book's Amazon performance briefly noted (new release bestseller in its category) [0:44:32] – Alternatives to Statins & PCSK9s: Bergamot & Lifestyle Curt's hierarchy: Lifestyle (diet, exercise, stress, sleep) Targeted supplements like bergamot (citrus extract): lowers harmful particles such as ApoB and supports “good” LDL function Only then consider pharmaceuticals, and very selectively Skepticism about recommending Lifendra at all; strong bias toward non-drug approaches [0:45:28] – Dr. Wolfson, Mold, and Cardiovascular Terrain Ed & Curt's respect for Dr. Jack Wolfson, “The Natural Heart Doctor” Mention of mold as a major, under-recognized driver of cardiovascular disease Reference to Dr. Wolfson's educational resources and upcoming podcast plans [0:48:04] – Key Takeaways on Lifendra & Heart Prevention Strategy Lifendra will not fix: seed oils, glyphosate exposure, mold, bad sleep, chronic stress Terrain-building priorities: Real food, omega-3s, sunlight Toxin reduction Mitochondrial support Foundational supplements Contrast: drugs = band-aids with side effects; nutraceuticals = “side benefits” when used correctly [0:52:28] – Wrap-Up Ed mentions Sprouts selling lab-grown meat and his strong opposition Update on Oura Ring: now tracking nighttime blood pressure and importance of BP dipping Listener story: young man post–heart surgery credits Nutrition World's education and support with changing his life Final thanks to Dr. Dearing and closing outro  The post Radio Show / Podcast – August 9, 2026 first appeared on Vital Health Radio.

Remember Saturday mornings watching cartoons with a giant, sugary bowl of cereal? For most of us, that childhood staple vanished the second we got serious about fitness. But what if you didn't need to trade your favorite childhood tradition for your macro goals? Well, today's guest did exactly that. After cutting his teeth in the sports nutrition trenches with Nutrabolt (owners of C4 Energy), Eoin Carroll took the ultimate "cereal kid" dream and turned it into a high-protein reality by co-founding TRUELY Cereal, a brand challenging the previous market expectation that all high-protein cereals include an unappealing chalky aftertaste or soggy texture. In this episode, we discuss everything from the brutal realities of self-manufacturing to scaling into retail giants like Sprouts and Costco Canada. Also, Eoin and I break down the major consumer demand drivers reshaping grocery shelves like the surging "protein-ification" of every product category and the massive market impact of GLP-1 users. Oh, and one last thing…about two-thirds of the way into our conversation, Eoin had a minor technology failure. So, while I've done my best to keep our natural conversation flowing, you might notice a slight sound adjustment from Eoin swapping microphones that required me to stitch together clips.

Derek Halpern shut down the biggest business podcast in the space, walked away from millions of dollars in cashflow, and started a turmeric company with $30,000 split three ways.  Eight years later Truvani is in more than 14,000 retail stores, including 4,200 Walmarts, it shipped 450,000 units in a single month, and it has never raised a dollar of outside capital.  We break down the sampling strategy that built demand before the product ever hit a shelf, the one paragraph on why most good D2C brands die in retail, and how he decides whether something is worth winning.   Links mentioned in the video: ► The eight-step plan to a million-dollar business: https://capitalism.com/100K Derek is running the same three-part system I mentor clients through on the way to their first $100,000 a month.

A welder by trade, dog enthusiast by nature, deep into ethology, breed history and genetics...she came on to make the case for racing.Then she reflected. Listened back. Started examining her arguments, going right through the stewards' reports, the economics and the research, until she'd written a full piece of her own:

Over 500 published papers stand behind one of the internet's most popular peptides, but fewer than 30 of the humans studied are in them. Dr. Gabrielle Lyon separates the molecule from the marketplace so you can tell real evidence from good marketing.In this solo episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon discusses:Why BPC-157's "mountain of evidence" collapses to a 99.7% animal-to-human ratio - 544 papers, but fewer than 30 humans across three uncontrolled pilot trialsHow to place any peptide on the spectrum from FDA-approved (GLP-1s like semaglutide) to investigational to compounded, and why "GLP-1s work, so peptides work" is a trapWhat the FDA quietly did in April 2026, and why removing a dozen peptides from its safety-concern list was driven by policy pressure, not new safety dataThe 4 questions to run on any peptide before you inject level of evidence, what the study measured, where it's sourced from, and whether it's banned in tested sportWhy the "boring work", resistance training, protein-anchored nutrition, and real recovery beat almost anything in a vialIf something is going into your body through a needle, the standard has to be higher than three words on a label that say "research use only."

On this episode, covering every stage of Women's Health, we have a very special first-time guest on the show and that is Kerstin Lindquist.Kerstin is a 4-time Emmy Award-winning journalist, health coach, and former host of QVC's #1 show, with an average daily viewership of over 3 million. Throughout her career, she has driven more than $1.95 billion in TV sales and leads a lifestyle brand that reaches more than 2 million people annually. A two-time author and engaging keynote speaker, Kerstin focuses on promoting wellness, faith, and stress management through speaking engagements, podcasting, and herforthcoming books.Her rare ability to connect with audiences — on camera, through audio, and in person — has made her a trusted voice for millions. With a combined social media following of over 300,000, she continues to influence and inspire across multiple platforms.Women across the country are starting to hear a lot about SRI-81 Shatavari™, also coined the Queen of Herbs. Kerstin joined us to share the science and clinical studies surrounding SRI-81 Shatavari.For thousands of years, Shatavari has been known in Ayurveda as the 'Queen of Herbs' and has been used to support female vitality, fertility, reproductive health, hormonal balance, lactation, and healthy aging. Within the body, Shatavari behaves in a similar way to Ashwagandha. Both adaptogens, these specific herbs work to tonify the body, providing better results the longer they are taken. Shatavari can be taken throughout a woman's life, supporting cycle health and providing additional support as they approach perimenopause and menopause.It is very rare to see a botanical that can support Every Stage of Womanhood.· Reproductive Years· Pregnancy & Postpartum· Lactation· Perimenopause· Menopause· Healthy AgingKey Clinical Findings               Perimenopause:      -42.6% reduction in menopause symptom scores      -29.6% reduction in perceived stress      -25.9% reduction in hot flashes      -32.8% increase in estradiol       -246% greater fatigue improvement versus placebo        Menopause:        -44.7% reduction in menopause symptom scores        -57.9% reduction in hot flashes·         Women's Sexual Wellness:         -34.2% improvement in FSFI scores·         PCOS:          -28.6% reduction in ovarian follicle countIt matters where we get our supplements from.

Everyone on a GLP-1 is watching the scale; almost no one is watching their bones. Bone loss isn't an inevitable part of aging; it's a reversible signal that something deeper is going wrong, and it starts far earlier than most people are ever warned.In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Douglas Lucas, a former Stanford-trained orthopedic surgeon turned bone-health specialist, to discuss:Why bone loss begins around 45 during perimenopause, not 50, and why waiting for your first DEXA scan at 65 is far too late to prevent itThe blind spots in the standard DEXA scan: a scan-to-scan margin of error near 6% and no read on bone quality, only quantityBone turnover markers (CTX and P1NP) you can test from blood to see whether you're building or breaking down bone in real timeWhy the "protein is bad for bones" and "alkalize your diet" beliefs are myths and why protein, minerals, and adequate calcium matter more than calcium aloneWhat rebuilds bone at home: resistance training, real impact like heel drops, and vertical vibration plates used ~10 minutes a dayUnderstanding your bones as a living, changeable organ system means you can catch loss early, measure it honestly, and reverse the trajectory, instead of accepting decline as your fate.Thank you to our sponsors:Head to https://bit.ly/4ftfObn and use code DRLYON for 25% off sitewide.

In this episode, we deep dive into the extraordinary origins of Splendor Volcanic Artesian Water, a brand that goes far beyond standard hydration. Sourced from the pristine foothills of the Ecuadorian Andes near the Cotopaxi Volcano and La Maná, Ecuador, this water's journey begins as pure snow and rainfall filtering slowly for centuries through deep layers of volcanic basalt, lava rock, and ancient mineral strata. Discovered in a region historically revered by ancient civilizations for its unique energetic properties, the underground artesian aquifer brings something truly rare to the table. In this episode, we explore what makes Splendor completely unique, from being globally recognized as the only bottled water known to naturally contain trace amounts of colloidal gold and silver—with the silver acting as a natural preservative that eliminates the need for harsh ozone treatments—to its "Super Low Minerality" Total Dissolved Solids level of roughly 31 mg/L that guarantees a silky, clean, and smooth finish with zero metallic aftertaste and balanced trace electrolytes for cellular hydration. Looking forward, listeners can get excited about what is next for the brand, including its dedication to ecological responsibility through pioneering 100% recycled plastic (rPET) bottles in Latin America alongside light-filtering indigo glass packaging designed to protect water integrity from UV degradation, plus its Rainforest Alliance certification that directs a percentage of gross sales back into local environmental conservation and community development programs in Ecuador. Web: https://splendorwater.com 15% Discount: ashsaidit15 Follow: @splendorwater Splendor Volcanic Artesian Water (formerly known as Health2O / Splendor by Health2O) is an ultra-premium volcanic artesian mineral water available in still and sparkling varieties. Sourced from the pristine foothills of the Andes Mountains near the Cotopaxi Volcano and La Maná, Ecuador, it holds global recognition as the only bottled water naturally containing trace amounts of colloidal gold and colloidal silver. With a Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) level of roughly 31 mg/L, it falls squarely into the "Super Low Minerality" category. Furthermore, it features signature dark indigo-blue glass and eco-friendly rPET packaging designed specifically to protect water integrity from UV degradation. The journey of Splendor Water begins as pure snow and rainfall on the peak of the Cotopaxi Volcano, one of the highest active volcanoes in the world. The water filters down slowly over centuries through deep layers of volcanic basalt, lava rock, and ancient mineral strata. It was discovered in the rainforest region of La Maná, Ecuador—an area historically revered by ancient civilizations for its unique energetic properties—during soil excavations that also revealed historical stone artifacts. It is bottled directly at the source to ensure that nothing is artificially added, removed, or chemically altered during packaging. Splendor is widely celebrated by water sommeliers and the Fine Water Society for its exceptional structure and taste profile. As the water traverses volcanic rock beds, it naturally acquires microscopic trace amounts of gold and silver. The naturally occurring silver acts as a natural preservative, eliminating the need for harsh ozone treatments. A near-zero heavy mineral load guarantees a silky, clean, and smooth finish on the palate with zero metallic aftertaste. Its natural isotonic properties deliver a balanced ratio of essential trace electrolytes—including calcium, potassium, magnesium, and bicarbonates—for optimal cellular hydration. Splendor maintains a strong commitment to ecological responsibility through sustainable business practices. The brand pioneered the use of 100% recycled plastic (rPET) bottles in Latin America alongside light-filtering indigo glass bottles designed for complete recyclability. It maintains Rainforest Alliance certification to safeguard the local Ecuadorian ecosystems surrounding the water source. A percentage of gross sales is funneled directly back into local environmental conservation programs and community development initiatives in Ecuador. - Ready to ignite the spark that levels up your entire life?

Join Dr. Sylvie Charles Royston, Founder and CEO of Just Date, for an inspiring conversation on leaving clinical medicine to fix the root cause of chronic illness. As a practicing physician at UCSF treating patients suffering from preventable, sugar-driven conditions like type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease, Sylvie realized that treating symptoms in a hospital clinic wasn't enough—the systemic solution belonged in the grocery aisle. In this episode, we explore how she translated her clinical medical training and culinary roots into an organic, date-based sweetener empire, expanding from her home kitchen into over 6,000 retail doors nationwide.

Grab your imaginary passports, Culture Kids! In this episode, Kristen and Asher welcome their friend Senna into the kitchen to cook up a Korean side dish called sukju namul (숙주나물), better known in English as seasoned mung bean sprouts. But this isn't just a cooking lesson. Halfway through sautéing sprouts with soy sauce and sesame oil, the Culture Train whisks the kids back to 15th century Hanyang (modern-day Seoul) during the Joseon Dynasty, where they uncover the real reason this humble vegetable carries the name of a royal scholar named Shin Suk-ju. Kids will learn how a political betrayal during a real moment in Korean history became forever linked to a fast-spoiling vegetable, and why Koreans have called mung bean sprouts "sukju namul" for hundreds of years. It's a story about food, memory, loyalty, and how history hides in the meals we eat every day. What mung bean sprouts (sukju namul) are and how they're prepared in Korean cooking The difference between how mung bean sprouts were cooked in the Joseon Dynasty versus how they're cooked today The true story of Korean scholar Shin Suk-ju and the royal succession crisis that changed his legacy How a vegetable came to be named after a real historical figure A hands-on family recipe families can recreate at home Sukju Namul (Korean Seasoned Mung Bean Sprouts) Lightly boiled mung bean sprouts, tossed with sesame oil, garlic, salt, and sesame seeds.

— What if your body has been trying to guide you all along—and the real challenge is learning how to listen? In this episode,Dr. Angela Zeng, inspired by her grandfather, a Traditional Chinese Medicine herbalist, shares why true healing begins not with fixing ourselves, but with reconnecting to the body's innate intelligence. We explore the lost art of self-trust, the powerful messages hidden within our symptoms, and why joy, connection, and vitality are essential ingredients for lasting well-being. If you've ever wondered how to cultivate a deeper relationship with your body and access the wisdom that already lives within you, this conversation is for you. Valeria interviews Dr. Angela Zeng — Founder Of Karviva Wellness Beverages, Wellness Entrepreneur, and Professional Speaker.  With nearly three decades of expertise spanning food science, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and entrepreneurship, Dr. Angela Zeng is one of the most distinctive voices at the intersection of ancient healing wisdom and modern nutritional science. Born into generations of traditional Chinese herbalists and later trained as a food scientist with formal grounding in pathology, biochemistry, and TCM, Zeng's career was catalyzed by a defining realization: American wellness culture had become obsessed with restriction, hype, and quick fixes, while overlooking the centuries-old truth her family had always practiced: that food, when chosen with intention, is itself the most powerful medicine. Zeng spent years inside the food and beverage industry as a scientist and product innovator before stepping out to challenge what she saw as a system optimized for marketing rather than meaningful health outcomes, grounded in the conviction that consumers deserve products built on evidence, not aesthetics, and that wellness must be measured in vitality, not deprivation. She is the founder of Karviva, a multi-award-winning functional beverage brand headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, dedicated to bridging modern nutritional science and Traditional Chinese Medicine through clean, plant-powered drinks. Her product portfolio spans Unwined, Detox, Immunity, ACE Sport, Wellness, Sprouts of Hope, and the newly launched Energy Juice lines, translating ancient herbal philosophy into a structured, accessible framework for everyday hydration, recovery, and longevity. Karviva's guiding philosophy, Food Is Better Medicine™, has driven more than one million bottles sold across 2,000+ retail locations, with features in Forbes, Bon Appétit, USA Today, Bloomberg, Yahoo Finance, and MarketWatch. A sought-after speaker and thought leader, Zeng is a TEDx speaker, a 2025 and 2026 St. Louis Titan 100 honoree, a 2026 Titan CEO honoree, and the recipient of the 2025 World Beverage Innovation Award for Best Low/No Alcohol Beverage, with three additional Karviva product lines named finalists at the same awards in Best Energy Beverage, Best Natural/Organic Beverage, and Best Plant-Based Beverage. She is also the author of the forthcoming book The Balance Cure: Unlock Your Body & Ancient Code for Lasting Weight Loss (June 2026), a practical guide that translates Traditional Chinese Medicine and modern nutritional science into a personalized framework for matching food, movement, and habits to individual body type, including dedicated support for those using GLP-1 medications.  Learn more about Dr. Angela and her work!

Recorded live on the CommerceNext Growth Show main stage in NYC, Steve Dennis sits down with Kimberley "KG" Gardiner, Chief Marketing Officer of Tractor Supply Company, who traces her path from senior marketing roles at Toyota, Lexus, and Volkswagen to leading one of America's most distinctive lifestyle retailers — 2,400 stores, 50,000-plus team members, and a culture she felt firsthand walking a Virginia store with CEO Hal Lawton during her interview. She explains how the "Life Out Here" platform works as a strategic decision filter, not a tagline, and walks through five core customer segments — from the Country Dabbler to the Big Barn customer, who shops up to 52 times a year. The conversation digs into the jobs-versus-joy duality of the Tractor Supply shopper, the balance of AI and human connection in stores, and why frictionless isn't always the goal. KG breaks down the retailer's proprietary in-store LLM, "Hey Gura," which helps team members field questions on everything from sick livestock to pet nutrition — and explains why 80% of online orders get fulfilled through stores. As she puts it: digital scales convenience, but stores scale trust. Up front, Steve and Michael open on the Strait of Hormuz, where ceasefire whiplash has eased fuel prices but left them well above pre-incursion levels. Fresh Moody's data on the K-shaped economy lands hard: the top 20% of US households now drive 60% of consumer spending, their outlays up 6.5% year-over-year, while the bottom 80% can't keep pace with inflation. That split is finally hitting grocery — Kroger comped 1%, Albertsons 0.7%, Publix flat — while Walmart, Costco, Amazon, T&T, Whole Foods, and Sprouts keep surging. The unremarkable middle is collapsing in grocery just as it did in department stores and category killers. After the interview, Steve recaps CommerceNext, including a sharp Mickey Drexler fireside with Simeon Siegel on taste, curation, and craftsmanship, before unpacking Walmart's $1.4B Vibe.co acquisition — a connected-TV play that rhymes with the earlier Vizio deal. On the prediction tracker: Starbucks is tapping the brakes on its all-third-place strategy, teasing up to 5,000 smaller, drive-through-led US locations. On the radar: an early start to back-to-school promos and a moved-up Prime Day, both hinting at margin pressure ahead. Michael closes on disappointing FIFA World Cup numbers across host cities, and crowns Taylor Swift the clear winner in the economic-contribution battle.

This is a sort of book report Jeff brings after reading Sarah Allen, The Way of Water and Sprouts of Virtue (Chinese Philosophy Culture). We discuss how in ancient China, the root metaphor of water was the focus itself. It's not as if water is a metaphor for an abstract reality. Its flow is the flow. Meditating on water is to glimpse the Tao, not an object lesson for some ideology.

The receptor that switches off your appetite on a GLP-1 drug is the same one wired into your reward circuitry, your hormones, and your blood vessels, which means when you turn down hunger, something else may be getting turned down too, and for most people taking these drugs, nobody ever checked.In this solo episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon discusses:Why the same drug class can improve sexual function in men with obesity while potentially dampening it in lean or postmenopausal women — and why the deciding factor isn't the drug, it's the bodyHow rapid weight loss raises SHBG, the protein that soaks up free testosterone, so a "normal" total testosterone result can hide a real deficit your bloodwork won't flagWhy women make up 60–70% of GLP-1 prescriptions yet the entire evidence base for female sexual function is two case reports, with zero validated questionnaires in any pivotal trialThe three-tier action plan for anyone on or about to start a GLP-1 — baseline your sexual function first, get free testosterone tested, and protect muscle with protein and resistance trainingWhether you're on a GLP-1 drug or considering one, you'll walk away knowing exactly what to measure before you start and what to watch for after — so a change in your sexual health gets caught as the vital sign it is, instead of being quietly dismissed.Thank you to our sponsors:Cozy Earth - Go to https://bit.ly/44qcXtu for up to 20% off!

Mōcean (stylized as mōcean drinkwerx) is a disruptive, better-for-you functional beverage brand pioneering the adult clean energy drink market. Co-founded by a multi-generational father-son duo—veteran master brewmaster Tony Vieira and creative brand strategist Christian Vieira—Mōcean was engineered to challenge the high-stimulant, youth-centric marketing of conventional energy drinks. By introducing a taurine-free, immune-support formulation rooted in premium Eastern botanicals, the brand directly targets health-conscious professionals, parents, and athletes seeking sustained cognitive performance without the subsequent sugar crash or jittery fallout. The inspiration for Mōcean emerged out of a universal pain point in consumer packaged goods (CPG): the distinct lack of health-conscious energy products for mature demographics. Standing in a hospital gift shop during the late-night birth of his daughter, Christian Vieira recognized that the energy drink aisle was a neon landscape of excessive stimulants and artificial ingredients completely unaligned with adult lifestyle needs. To bridge this market gap, Christian partnered with his father, Tony Vieira. Bringing over 36 years of commercial brewing science experience from executive development roles at Anheuser-Busch, Coors, and Mark Anthony Brewing—where he spearheaded the scaling of Blue Moon and the technical quality infrastructure behind White Claw's market dominance—Tony applied precise formulation standards to revolutionize the clean energy space. While 99% of conventional energy drinks rely on standard chemical copy-pasting, Mōcean is engineered to meet the strict compliance and ingredient standards of premium natural grocers like Whole Foods Market and Sprouts. Mōcean distinguishes itself as the first functional energy drink in the United States to utilize shiso (Perilla frutescens), an ancient Eastern botanical highly regarded in Asian wellness traditions for its powerful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune-modulating properties. This herbal foundation aligns with modern consumer shifts toward holistic wellness and daily preventative health. Rather than overloading the central nervous system with empty stimulants, Mōcean operates as a hybrid wellness supplement. The ingredient deck features a strategic matrix of functional adaptogens, vitamins, and minerals, including therapeutic doses of Elderberry extract, Echinacea, Zinc, Vitamin C, and Vitamin B12. It also incorporates Magnesium Citrate combined with natural Ocean Salt to mitigate physical fatigue and support neural hydration. In a major departure from industry standards, Mōcean contains zero taurine, proactively addressing emerging consumer awareness and scientific studies scrutinizing the long-term metabolic impacts of stimulant stacking. For clean energy, the beverage delivers a calibrated 130 mg of organic green tea caffeine per serving. This moderate dosing provides jitter-free cognitive focus, allowing high-performing adults to safely consume the product within recommended daily health boundaries. Mōcean explicitly rejects artificial, candy-flavored profiles like cotton candy or birthday cake, opting instead for crisp, subtly carbonated, and naturally sweetened options. The core flavor architecture includes Mandarin, a bright, nostalgic citrus profile; White Peach, a sophisticated and smooth floral flavor tailored for mature palates; Blueberry Pom, a rich, tart fusion of dark berries designed for a refreshing midday mental reset; and Strawberry Guava, a crisp, tropical profile that delivers authentic fruit notes without excessive sweetness. Representing the evolution of the functional beverage market, Mōcean successfully captures market share at the intersection of natural energy, daily immunity supplements, and clean-label transparency, anchoring its brand value under the core tagline: a body in mōcean stays in motion.

Turning a childhood favorite into something parents can actually feel good about — that's the magic

She left Goldman Sachs, moved to Mozambique for a year, and came back to build one of the most distinct wellness brands in America.  Rose Hamilton, CEO of Compass Rose Ventures and co-host of The Story of a Brand Show, sits down with Shizu Okusa, Founder & CEO of Apothékary, for a masterclass in what it really means to build a brand system not just a product line. From a New York City billboard to a Series A close, Apothékary is proof that deep roots and radical clarity can outpace any amount of paid media spend. * Three iterations before liftoff. Apothékary started as a pop-up store rooted in Ayurveda, evolved into powders, and eventually landed on liquid supplements, a format Shizu now considers a near-monopoly position. The lesson: your first product is almost never your final one. * Heritage as an operating system, not a mood board. Shizu's Japanese roots show up in how the company hires, iterates, and moves; guided by the principle of Kaizen, continuous improvement. It's not packaging. It's how the business runs. * TikTok crossed a million dollars a month and here's why. Apothékary's TikTok success isn't about chasing the algorithm. It's built on 20,000+ affiliates creating education-first content around a visually distinctive blue liquid dropper that stops the scroll and earns the click. * Retail forced brutal clarity. Entering Whole Foods, Sprouts, and The Vitamin Shoppe forced Apothékary to put ingredient benefits bigger than the brand name on packaging. The consumer doesn't have time for your founder story in the aisle and that discipline makes the brand stronger everywhere. * Distribution is the moat. In a category where products get copied, Shizu's sharpest insight is that the real defensibility is distribution,  the ability to play in grocery, health care, and beauty simultaneously, backed by proprietary formulas and Shiseido as a strategic investor. Join us in listening to this episode for one of the most intellectually rigorous and practically useful brand conversations we've had on the show. Rose and Shizu cover signal, thesis, behavior, and proof, the four pillars of a brand that becomes easier to understand and harder to copy over time.  Whether you're a founder, an operator, or an investor, this one will sharpen how you think.  For more on Apothékary visit: https://www.apothekary.com/ If you enjoyed this episode, please leave The Story of a Brand Show a rating and review.  Plus, don't forget to follow us on Apple and Spotify.  Your support helps us bring you more content like this!

Long before SIMPLi hit shelves at Whole Foods, Sprouts, Erewhon, and Wegmans, Sarela and Matt were traveling globally working directly with farmers to source regenerative organic ingredients and rebuild transparency at the root level of food production. What started as a sourcing mission eventually became SIMPLi — a pantry brand focused on traceability, regenerative agriculture, and proving that better food systems can scale without cutting corners. In this episode, Sarela and Matt break down how they built relationships with farming communities around the world, why most consumers have no idea where their pantry staples actually come from, and what it takes to create a mission-driven food brand in a category dominated by massive incumbents.

Dr. Judy Morgan - integrative veterinarian, author of nine books, and one of the leading voices in holistic pet health - joins Dr. Will Cole to pull back the curtain on what conventional veterinary medicine has been getting catastrophically wrong. They cover what's actually in commercial kibble (including why it may legally contain euthanasia solution), why annual vaccinations are largely unnecessary when titer testing exists, why spaying and neutering before six months is the hormonal equivalent of making your puppy postmenopausal overnight, and what flea and tick pesticides are actually doing inside your pet's nervous system.
