    Send us a textThis week on the Less Stressed Life, we're talking vision, mitochondria, and light with ophthalmologist and UCL researcher Glen Jeffery. We explore why the retina is so energy hungry and how simple exposure to long wavelength light and even plain incandescent lighting can measurably support aging eyes.We dig into wavelength and dose, why morning timing matters most, what makes incandescent bulbs uniquely powerful, and practical ways to protect your eyes from modern indoor lighting.If you've ever battled screen related eye strain, worried about declining vision, or felt lost in the red light maze, this conversation brings clarity and simple next steps.KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Morning light best activates mitochondria and supports eye health • Just three minutes of red or long wavelength light can boost color vision • Benefits fade after about five days without continued exposure • Incandescent bulbs outperform LEDs for vision and energy support • Blue light and LEDs can drain mitochondrial function • Avoid lasers; low intensity LEDs or sunlight are safest • Daily natural light is the simplest, most effective therapyABOUT GUEST:Dr. Glen Jeffery is a Professor of Neuroscience at the UCL Institute of Ophthalmology. His research focuses on how aging and light exposure affect the retina and mitochondrial function. He has pioneered studies showing how specific wavelengths of light, including red and infrared, can improve visual performance and support healthy aging of the eye. His work bridges neuroscience, ophthalmology, and environmental health, emphasizing practical, light-based approaches to protect and restore vision. WHERE TO FIND: Email:  g.jeffery@ucl.ac.ukWHERE TO FIND CHRISTA:Website: https://www.christabiegler.com/Instagram: @anti.inflammatory.nutritionistPodcast Instagram: @lessstressedlifeYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lessstressedlifeNUTRITION PHILOSOPHY OF LESS STRESSED LIFE:

    Sustainable Digital Advertising: How Purpose-Driven Brands Can Reduce Their Carbon Footprint and Boost PerformanceDigital advertising powers much of the online economy, but it comes with a hidden cost: a significant environmental impact. In a recent podcast, Josh Elledge spoke with Avril Tomlin-Hood, CEO & Founder of boa, a strategic sustainable digital media buying agency. They explored how brands can take meaningful action to reduce emissions while improving ad performance, offering practical strategies for purpose-driven marketing.Making Digital Advertising Sustainable Without Sacrificing PerformanceAvril explains that digital ads consume energy across servers, data centers, and real-time bidding platforms, creating “scope 3” emissions that many brands overlook. She emphasizes the importance of auditing campaigns, measuring emissions, and eliminating waste in the media supply chain. By optimizing targeting, frequency, and placements, companies can reduce unnecessary impressions and improve return on ad spend.Choosing sustainable partners and platforms is another key step. Boa encourages brands to prioritize agencies and publishers that use renewable energy and have verified carbon reduction goals. Communicating these efforts authentically—through case studies, blog posts, and social media—helps brands build trust and demonstrate real commitment to sustainability.Finally, Avril highlights the growing role of AI and the challenges of “walled gardens” like Google and Meta, which can complicate planning while increasing energy consumption. She advises marketers to stay agile, evaluate environmental impact alongside campaign effectiveness, and start with small improvements that scale over time. Sustainable advertising isn't just responsible—it's often more efficient and profitable.About Avril Tomlin-HoodAvril Tomlin-Hood is CEO & Founder of boa, a strategic sustainable digital media buying agency.

    In “Sales Insights for Logistics Leaders”, Joe Lynch and Trey Griggs, Founder and Chief Encouragement Officer of BETA Consulting Group,  discuss the strategy for logistics leaders to build a trusted brand and create sales momentum using clear messaging, social proof (testimonials), and self-awareness to replace reliance on their shrinking professional network. About Trey Griggs Trey Griggs is the Founder and Chief Encouragement Officer of BETA Consulting Group, dedicated to building great brands within the transportation industry. His company focuses on sales & marketing consulting, including Go-To-Marketing strategies, crafting engaging messaging and building social proof. He is a podcast host, as well as a highly sought-after event emcee, author and keynote speaker, focusing on sales, marketing, leadership and self-awareness. About Beta Consulting Group BETA Consulting Group is in the business of building brands through foundational messaging and customer testimonial videos, along with creating relevant content for the transportation industry through LinkedIn LIVE shows and industry events to entertain, educate and inspire. Trey collaborates with industry titans in sales and marketing to ensure his clients have the best resources to build their brands and drive revenue growth. Key Takeaways: Sales Insights for Logistics Leaders In “Sales Insights for Logistics Leaders”, Joe Lynch and Trey Griggs, Founder and Chief Encouragement Officer of BETA Consulting Group,  discuss the strategy for logistics leaders to build a trusted brand and create sales momentum using clear messaging, social proof (testimonials), and self-awareness to replace reliance on their shrinking professional network. Shift from Network Selling to a True Marketing Engine: Selling exclusively to your existing network in logistics eventually hits a wall. Sustainable, massive sales momentum requires building a defined marketing engine that consistently generates brand awareness, trust, and a predictable pipeline of high-intent buyers. Foundational Messaging is the Sales Accelerator: Logistics companies must move away from confusing industry jargon. Leaders should adopt clear, customer-centric messaging frameworks (like Storybrand) to ensure prospects immediately understand the problem being solved and the solution offered, thereby reducing the sales cycle and increasing engagement. Social Proof is the New Sales Pitch: Relying on sales reps alone is inefficient. Logistics leaders must proactively build social proof—primarily through customer testimonial videos—to let clients do the selling. This "social proof" builds immediate trust and credibility, especially in the technology sector. Self-Awareness Drives Sales Leadership: Effective sales leadership in logistics technology is rooted in self-awareness. Leaders who understand their personal strengths and weaknesses are better equipped to coach their teams, build strong personal brands, and create a culture of intentional, rather than reactive, sales performance. Build a Brand, Not Just a Sales Team: In a crowded logistics technology market, the brand is the lead generator. Focus your consulting and content efforts on building a known and trusted brand that attracts high-quality buyers who are already predisposed to work with you. The Breadth of Logistics Tech Knowledge Matters: For sales teams selling technology (TMS, Visibility, RPA), deep knowledge across the entire freight ecosystem is crucial. Leaders must ensure their teams can speak fluently about complex solutions to both brokers and carriers to position their product effectively. Embrace the Coach's Mindset: Drawing from his background as a teacher and coach, Trey emphasizes that sales leaders should prioritize coaching and development. Instilling discipline and a focus on core sales techniques is the key to creating a team that consistently exceeds goals, regardless of market volatility.

    Hustle culture nearly destroyed my health, my marriage, and my ability to be present for my daughters. In this deeply personal episode, I share why I stopped glorifying the grind and learned that working smarter not harder is the real path to sustainable success. From leaving Deloitte to build BudgetDog while caring for my daughter with Dravet syndrome, to discovering toxic mold that threatened our entire family's health, this is the raw truth about what endless hustle really costs. I'll walk you through the moments that forced me to choose between proving my worth through output and actually being present for what matters. Episode Timeline & Highlights [0:00] - Why hustle culture almost broke me [1:04] - The Big Four grind: Last man standing from my starting class [2:31] - Building a business from scratch isn't what Instagram tells you [3:44] - The moment everything changed: Logan's first seizure at 5 months [6:46] - October 2022: Turning the car around in a Michigan snowstorm [11:17] - The diagnosis that explained everything: Mold mycotoxins [14:19] - $300,000 gone in two months—and why we had to leave everything behind [20:04] - Dallas ice storm: Heart rate of 203 and another house rejection [23:13] - The health markers that scared us straight [29:10] - Making $1 million sitting by the pool vs. hundreds of thousands in a cubicle [32:34] - My new operating model: High-intensity spurts, not endless hustle [34:56] - Setting boundaries that actually stick Key Takeaways 1. Seasons of sacrifice are necessary staying there forever is dangerous - There's a time to grind, but knowing when to stop is what separates success from self-destruction 2. Your biggest breakthroughs come from rest, not burnout - The most strategic moves happen when you step back and think, not when you're drowning in details 3. Health markers don't lie - When your cortisol is shot and your testosterone drops, your body is telling you something the hustle bros won't   Quotables "I made $1 million sitting at a pool. I made a couple hundred thousand sitting in a cubicle at Deloitte." "You can run on the treadmill to get in shape, but if you run on it forever, you're going to fall off and hurt yourself." "Sustainable success comes from clarity, not chaos." "Our disadvantage led to our advantage if my daughter didn't have that seizure, we would've stayed in that toxic house much longer."   Links & Resources Learn more about BudgetDog Academy: https://budgetdog.com Connect with me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/budgetdog My book, The Roadmap to Financial Freedom: https://budgetdog.com/book If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who needs to hear that rest isn't giving up it's gearing up for what's next.

    Ever feel like you're working harder than ever but still not hitting that next level of success? Like no matter how much you push, something inside keeps holding you back? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast I chat with my man Itamar Marani — a world-class performance and mindset coach who's helped top entrepreneurs, executives, and high achievers break through the internal barriers that keep them stuck.Itamar's got a fascinating background — from serving in the Israeli Special Forces to working as a federal agent, and now coaching elite performers across the globe. His new book, Elite Performance, dives deep into what it really takes to achieve audacious goals — not by doing more, but by winning the war within. In this conversation, we unpack how to create psychological freedom, build guardrails to protect what matters most, and remove the “performance anchors” that quietly weigh us down.One of the biggest truths Itamar drops in this episode is that clarity creates freedom. When you know exactly what you want not what others expect of you , you can channel your energy toward what truly matters. He also explains how humility plays a powerful role in success. Sometimes, we hold on to toxic relationships, outdated beliefs, or unnecessary responsibilities out of guilt or pride. But real growth happens when we have the courage to let go of what no longer serves us.We also talk about the balance between ambition and peace. So many people dull their drive because they're afraid of the sacrifices success might demand. But Itamar flips that mindset. He shares how putting up the right guardrails boundaries that protect your health, relationships, and well-being that actually gives you the permission to go all in without fear. Think of it like bowling with bumpers — you can give it everything you've got, knowing you won't crash into the gutter.Another key takeaway: performance = skill + pressure management. Most people think they need to work harder, but Itamar reminds us that high performance often comes down to how well you handle internal pressure. If you can learn to modulate that stress — to breathe, recalibrate, and stay composed under fire — you can achieve more with less effort and enjoy the process along the way.If you've ever felt torn between chasing your dreams and staying grounded, this episode is your roadmap. It's about reclaiming your ambition without losing your peace.What does Happy Hustlin mean to you?Sustainable that you get to wake up again, there's obviously challenging days, but you get to say when you're 70 when you're 80, I did things the right way.

    What kind of founder drives a U-Haul full of perishable product through the desert at 3 A.M.… and calls it progress? That's the kind of relentless, purpose-driven hustle behind Forager Project, the plant-based food and beverage company reshaping what dairy-free can taste and feel like. In this episode, co-founders Stephen Williamson and JC Hanley open up about the mission-fueled (and occasionally messy) evolution of their brand, from cold-pressed juice to cashew-based yogurts and creamers that compete head-on with dairy. They discuss what it really takes to build a standout CPG brand in saturated categories, why “project” is still part of their name, and how lessons from prior businesses and discontinued product lines have shaped their approach. They also explain why they walked away from juice, how they knew yogurt was the future, what it means to innovate with both a moral compass and a culinary one and how they define success. Show notes: 0:25: Interview: Stephen Williamson & JC Hanley, Co-Founders, Forager Project – In a conversation hosted at Forager Project's office in San Francisco, Stephen and JC discuss how the brand was created by a desire to create clean, minimally processed, plant-based foods and how “project” reflects their ethos of exploration and ongoing improvement. The founders recount their early days launching Forager Project in 2013, initially inspired by the ultra-premium juice space before pivoting – what they describe as “foraging” – into new categories. They explain how they began fermenting plant-based ingredients, particularly cashews, to create plant-based yogurts, and have since expanded into Greek-style yogurts and creamers. Stephen and JC emphasize an innovation philosophy rooted in clean, organic ingredients, including vegetables, nuts, seeds and ancient grains, and talk about the grit and craziness required to build a mission-driven company. They note how – despite challenges like tariffs, competition, and changing categories – they've remained focused on their mission: to help replace animal dairy with plant-based alternatives. They close with a broader reflection on success and staying true to their values.

    On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, guest host Aanya talks with innovation coach and life-design expert Ibeth Ayala, author of No Risk, No Fun and From the Ground Up. This conversation cuts through buzzwords to show how real innovation begins with self-honesty, not strategy decks. Ibeth unpacks her Connect → Create → Try framework, how to spot rising stress before burnout, and why “permission to fail” accelerates progress in careers and companies—especially in legacy industries like insurance. If you're navigating exhaustion, change, or a high-stakes role, this episode offers a direct path to clarity, creativity, and sustainable action. About the Guest  : Ibeth Ayala is an innovation coach, life-design expert, and internationally best-selling author. After a personal reset in her 20s, she's spent years guiding leaders and teams to shift from burnout to bold creativity, building innovation capacity across sectors from insurance to aviation. Key Takeaways: Innovation is an inner game first. External tactics don't land without personal clarity on needs, priorities, and values. Burnout ≠ only about work. Life stress compounds; address the whole system—relationships, health, money, career—rather than a single silo. Use the 3-step loop:Connect (self-check: what do I need?), Create (options, reframes), Try (small experiments to validate). Catch stress early. Rate stress 1–10 and intervene sooner; prevention beats recovery. Drop inherited beliefs. Question norms like “marriage/work is supposed to be hard” and choose what actually serves your life design. Permission to fail—fast. In teams, name failure as expected learning. The sooner you see what doesn't work, the faster you progress. Risk drives momentum. No risk, no fun: calibrated risks unlock creativity and engagement, especially in traditional sectors. Context matters. Diets, routines, and advice are abstractions until personalized to age, health, history, and goals. Design your “ground.” Clear the old (assumptions, limits) before planting new habits—like prepping soil before a garden. Sustainable innovation = ongoing tuning. You don't need to hit rock bottom; build awareness and adjust before crisis.

    Whether you're in perimenopause, menopause, or postmenopause—or supporting someone who is—this episode is full of gentle truths and nourishing permission to live this season with intention, softness, and spaciousness. Dr. Susan Baumgaertel is a profoundly thoughtful and creative physician who passionately reframes menopause around nourishment, pleasure, and presence at its center. With decades of experience in internal medicine and a unique blend of architectural and artistic insight, Susan offers a menu of supportive, holistic, and empowering approaches for midlife and beyond. Susan shares her own personal and professional pivots, the birth of her book The Menopause Menu, and how she is using her voice and wisdom to help women navigate midlife on their own terms—without overwhelm, shame, or shoulds. Pearls of Wisdom: Menopause can be a time of pleasure, choice, and curiosity—not just a list of things to fix. Think of it as a nourishing multi-course "menu", not a checklist. Small, thoughtful shifts what Susan calls “micro-pivots” and can lead to meaningful transformation. You don't have to throw it all out to create a new path. Rather than immediately reaching for a solution, take time to pause, reflect, and listen to your body. Sustainable nourishment comes from alignment, not urgency. Food, body image, and health can all be approached with compassion and joy. Sugar can be healing. A walk can be creative. Your body can be art. The system may be broken, but your experience doesn't have to be. Personal time, presence, and honest conversations with yourself can make a profound difference. Reflection Questions: What would love do for you in menopause? What's on your personal “menopause menu”? What are you choosing to nourish yourself with? How might you meet yourself with more grace and curiosity in this phase of life? What story are you telling about your body, and what would it feel like to tell a more generous one? If you're seeking deeper support during your own transition into midlife or menopause. I invite you to join me for 1:1 coaching, where you can rediscover ease, purpose, and peace in this next phase of life: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/coaching Or nourish yourself at a restorative, plant-forward retreat with me and like-minded women physicians: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/retreats If you're interested in inviting me or Dr. Susan Bange to speak or lead a workshop for your team, conference, or institution, reach out here: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/speaking You can find Susan and her work including her book, "The Menopause Menu", and her new conversation series “Voices with Vigor” at www.menopausemenu.com. Her refreshing and wise perspective offers a breath of fresh air in today's noisy menopause space.   More about Dr. Susan Baumgaertel She began her internal medicine practice in 1996, encompassing a wide range of clinical work over the years. In 2021, she stepped away from direct patient care to expand her impact through myMDadvocate, a virtual consultation and advocacy service that serves as a bridge between patients and the often-complex healthcare system. As a physician consultant, healthcare navigator, and medical advocate, she helps people navigate a range of issues, from referral advocacy and chronic condition management to aging gracefully and supporting caregivers through their most challenging moments. Her passion for helping women through life transitions led to the creation of MenopauseMenu, a comprehensive online resource offering evidence-based information and holistic support. This work formed the foundation for her 2023 book, “The Menopause Menu”—an all-in-one guide that transforms medical complexity into accessible wisdom. She has just launched a talk show, Voices With Vigor, showcasing guests from diverse backgrounds who share common threads of curiosity, kindness, dedication, and resilience.  Nothing shared in the Healing Medicine Podcast is medical advice.

Whether it's exercising, eating well, or taking 10 minutes for yourself, most moms struggle with follow-through — and it's not because you're lazy, unmotivated, or broken. The real issue isn't willpower. It's your mindset and your nervous system.

    Trond Aas is CEO and Co-Founder of Attensi, a leader in AI-powered gamified simulation training. Trond shares his background spanning quantum physics, consulting and gaming. He explains how gamification grounded in behavioral science drives engagement which enhances initial and long-term learning especially for younger employees. Trond describes motivation as a critical success factor for sustainable upskilling. He discusses metrics to demonstrate return on investment in skills development and how to improve skills gap issues starting with cultivating a trust-based culture of learning   KEY TAKEAWAYS   [01:17] Trond starts studying quantum physics to explore fundamental questions about nature.   [02:01] After doing research for his military service, Trond goes into industry seeking practical impact.   [02:38] Trond joins McKinsey as a business school type experience before pursuing entrepreneurship.   [03:10] Interest in games stems from early programming and creativity cultivated during university.   [04:08] In gaming, Trond reveals how behavioral science is used to drive engagement and learning.   [06:12] Tribal, team-based successes are key to stimulating successful collaboration online.   [06:25] Fascination with learning and awareness of superficial gamification drives Attensi's founding.   [07:44] Attensi applies science to drive motivation and behavior change with measurable results.   [09:40] Correlating simulated behavior with real-world outcomes to track learning impact.   [10:23] Measuring soft skills progress when observable behavior is hard to track.   [12:10] As technology evolves rapidly, upskilling must be ongoing across high-competence industries.   [12:50] Skill development tailored to specific job challenges is more effective than one-size-fits-all.   [13:45] Self-motivated learners thrive, while others need help to develop the motivation that anchors learning.   [14:47] Many Gen Zers lack key communication skills and may not recognize this development need.   [15:49] Most learning programs fail on motivation, which must be addressed first to succeed.   [16:22] Creating mastery experiences significantly increases learner motivation and outcomes.   [15:15] Game-based learning builds confidence that translates into better real-world performance.   [19:43] Companies underinvest in onboarding due to unclear ROI, hindering workforce readiness.   [20:08] Trond emphasizes data, ROI, and clear impact as critical for better training investment decisions.   [20:34] Attensi's research shows poor onboarding leads to lower confidence and performance.   [23:42] Skill masking arises when employees hide learning gaps, often from lack of psychological safety.   [24:18] Cultivating trust-based cultures is essential to reduce skill masking and promote learning.   [25:48] Focusing on core skills for each role facilitates the shift to becoming a skills-first organization.   [26:44] Skill-based organizations can start small and ensure programs drive skill improvements.   [28:33] Maintaining skill use needs continuous feedback, clear expectations, and learning structures.   [29:13] Organizations must define competencies to stand out and align training with competitive goals.   [30:37] Tailoring programs to learner motivation and challenges supports effective skills development.     IMMEDIATE ACTION TIP: Learning motivation and skills usage are cultivated through mastery. Help employees sense their achievement to encourage their enhanced performance and growth.   RESOURCES   Trond Aas on LinkedIn Attensi's website     QUOTES   "We can use these principles of games to drive engagement, drive interest, drive motivation—and then we should be able to impact real behaviors and measure that with data."   "Most people experience poor onboarding and most people are convinced that it affects their work afterwards."   "Skill masking is that people are actually hiding the challenges that they are having."   "Are your people motivated? And if not, address that—that's what you need to address to be able to develop your organization."   “When you are able to instill a feeling of mastery in people that has a huge effect on their motivation.”   "A lot of people think that one [training] system or one approach will fit with all the different employees... and I think it needs to be a lot more nuanced than that."

    The question for this episode is from Geoff:  I'd love to hear your thoughts about how homestead sites can create a "whole nutrition" landscape with permaculture.  What I mean, is that a "healthy balanced diet" typically includes sources for necessary nutrients, calories, minerals, proteins, carbohydrates/starches, etc. Growing the leafy greens, berries, fruit, vegetables is all very well and good -- but if we are seeking to create a 'whole nutrition' landscape, we need to re-evaluate how much area in the gardens are devoted to tubers/roots and protein sources like nuts (hazelnuts) or seeds (sunflower, serviceberry seeds) versus the more typical perennial greens.  Ie Maybe way larger portions of the landscape should be devoted to tubers and fast-growing nuts/seeds than is typically seen in Permaculture Designs, for instance for PDC courses?!

    Why is it that so many ministry leaders—people called to reflect Christ's love—so often end up burned out, disillusioned, or driven by power and platform instead of humility and service? It's heartbreaking when church leadership doesn't “smell like the gospel,” and instead resembles the very systems of profit and self-promotion it should prophetically resist.In this episode, Jason Jensen, Vice President of Spiritual Foundations for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and author of Formed to Lead, unpacks what true spiritual formation for leaders looks like, how to hold humility and faith in tension, and how suffering and the wilderness can become gifts in our ministry.THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Jason Jensen observes that much leadership in the church fails to reflect the gospel and often focuses on power, platform, or profit.Large numbers of Christian leaders experience burnout or moral, character, or spiritual failure, leading to disillusionment among younger generations.Jason Jensen asserts that the Gospel of Luke presents a radically different, subversive vision of leadership, centering the vulnerable and overlooked.Leadership in God's kingdom includes all people, from parents to presidents, and turns conventional power dynamics upside down.Christian leadership requires holding together the paradox of tender humility and bold faith.Jason Jensen describes the spiritual formation of a leader as a lifelong, iterative process marked by failure, repentance, and receiving the love of God.Embracing wilderness seasons—times of pain, failure, or dryness—is essential for spiritual growth and character development.Markus Watson invites Jason Jensen to share from personal experience how suffering shaped his faith and leadership, prompting stories of transformation after injury and failure.Experiencing grief, loss, and mistakes can be some of the most formative experiences for a leader's development and empathy.Depth and authenticity in leadership are formed by embracing—not bypassing—suffering and wilderness experiences.Jason Jensen highlights Steve Hayner's example of leadership, specifically his ability to listen well, include others, and help others feel loved and safe.Steve Hayner practiced “expansive discourse” and adaptive leadership, carrying pain with others and facilitating mutual learning rather than judgment.Sustainable organizational change requires time, patience, and leaders who bring everyone to the table and foster shared purpose.Offering one's life—and even one's death—as a gift to God and others represents the culmination of a spiritual journey, embodying humility, sacrifice, and openness.RELEVANT RESOURCES AND LINKS:Jason Jensen:formedtolead.comInstagramXFacebookBooks mentioned:Formed to Lead, by Jason JensenRelated episodes:244.

This new study confirms what so many in our sector already feel every day: burnout, financial strain, and constant pressure. In this episode of The Small Nonprofit Podcast, Maria Rio is joined by Caitlin McBride, CFRE, a fundraising executive with over a decade of experience. Together, they unpack Future of Good's 2025 Change Maker Wellbeing Index and what it reveals about food security, mental health, and overall wellbeing across Canadian nonprofits. Burnout in Nonprofits - The Highlights: We're not in alignment with our values The study found that about 30% of nonprofit staff are experiencing food insecurity. Many organizations try to fight poverty in the community while it is happening inside their own four walls. Wellbeing is alarmingly low In arts, culture, and recreation, nearly half of staff reported poor wellbeing. Government-linked organizations like schools and hospital foundations reported lower but still concerning rates. Leadership and frontline experiences are different About half of entry-level and frontline staff reported poor wellbeing, compared to about 30% in senior leadership. Power, pay, and job security shape stress in very different ways. Turnover creates sector-wide brain drain More than 70% of entry-level staff who quit nonprofit roles leave the sector entirely. That is loss of experience, momentum, and future leadership. The future of the sector is at risk without change If early-career staff burn out and leave, organizations lose continuity and capacity. Sustainable missions require sustainable workplaces.

    Hurray's Girl Beer isn't just another craft brand. It's a calculated rebellion against an industry stuck in the past. In this episode, Hurray's founder Ray Biebuyck joins Taste Radio editor Ray Latif and Brewbound managing editor Jess Infante to share her vision for a beer brand that doesn't just challenge convention, it openly mocks it. Witty, unapologetic, and intentionally unorthodox, Hurray's markets flavored light beers, including Pineapple Yuzu and Blueberry Lavender varieties, crafted not to honor tradition, but to disrupt it. The brand's satirical, female-forward positioning flips the script in a category that has long overlooked nearly a third of its audience: women. Ray discusses how Hurray's draws more from stand-up comedy than legacy brewing playbooks, using humor and irreverence as tools for connection, and conversion. She also reveals how this disruptive approach is translating into real-world traction, with Hurray's on track to reach over 3,000 retail locations, including Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, BevMo, Total Wine, Sprouts, and Walmart, by Q1 2026. Show notes: 0:25: Interview: Ray Biebuyck, Founder & CEO, Hurray's Girl Beer – Ray traces her roots back to New England and her early career in the corporate world, with stints at J.P. Morgan and WeWork after graduating from college in New York City. She discussed how, at the onset of the pandemic, she stepped in to support operations for a local beverage alcohol brand and recognized a gap in the market: a disconnect between male-dominated beer branding and female consumers. Ray eventually launched Hurray's Girl Beer in 2024 and shares the uphill journey of pitching a new beer brand in a male-dominated, slowing market, and how she carved out a niche by courting an underserved audience. She recalls self-distributing cases out of a Toyota Camry to landing shelf space in 200 retail doors across Los Angeles and Orange County and how Girl Beer secured distribution at Whole Foods, BevMo, and Total Wine. Ray also details the pivotal relationship with an Anheuser-Busch-aligned distributor, which accelerated growth and expanded reach and why she believes the brand is on track for a breakout year in 2026.
