How do you turn seawater into a cult food brand? Ben Jacobsen did just that – and changed the way America thinks about salt. In this episode, we sit down with Ben, the founder of Jacobsen Salt Co., whose journey began with a single, revelatory bite of tinned fish topped with a few flakes of sea salt. That moment sparked a passion that led him to the windswept Oregon coast, where he began hand-harvesting salt, and ultimately to building one of the most iconic artisanal food brands in the country. Ben shares how he bootstrapped the business from scratch, earned the trust of renowned chefs, and turned Jacobsen Salt into a symbol of quality, craft and flavor. He speaks candidly about the entrepreneurial rollercoaster – the risks, the resilience, the moments of doubt – and the deep creative drive that continues to fuel his work. Show notes: 0:25: Interview: Ben Jacobsen, Founder, Jacobsen Salt Co. – The conversation begins with Ben's recent culinary experiences in NYC and his growing appreciation for restaurants since starting his company. Ben traces the origins of Jacobsen Salt Co. to his time living in Copenhagen and Oslo and how he was inspired by the profound difference high-quality salt made in simple meals. The conversation delves into the technical and entrepreneurial challenges of creating a salt company from scratch and the humble beginnings of Jacobsen Salt, which involved transporting seawater in wine totes and experimenting in a commercial kitchen. He touches on how Jacobsen Salt gained early traction through word of mouth, support from chefs, and compelling design – all of which contributed to expansion in specialty shops and boutiques across all 50 states. Ben also explains why he sees a long runway for growth, emphasizing the importance of scaling production and increasing accessibility while staying true to the brand's mission.  Brands in this episode: Jacobsen Salt Co.

You know boundaries matter — so why does saying no still feel like betrayal? This episode exposes the deeper identity-level misalignment and shows you how to create boundaries that don't just work… but feel like you.You know the script: You say yes, even when you're stretched thin. You keep the peace, carry the load, and tell yourself, “This is just what it takes.”But beneath that over-functioning is a quieter truth: Saying no still feels wrong — not because you're weak, but because your identity is wired for performance and approval.In this episode of the Identity-Level Recalibration podcast, Julie Holly shares a deeply personal reflection on the tangled guilt behind boundary-setting — and why sustainable boundaries require an identity shift, not a time hack.You'll explore:The real reason saying no triggers guilt, obligation, and confusionWhy high performers override their own needs, even with the best boundary scriptsA powerful reframe that moves you from resentment to rhythmHow your yes might be protecting a role that's quietly eroding your alignmentYou'll also hear a faith-rooted story about The Best Yes by Lysa TerKeurst — and how one friend's timely suggestion led Julie to rewire her understanding of identity, boundaries, and divine alignment.—Today's Micro Recalibration:Ask yourself:“Where in my life have I been saying yes out of fear or obligation, not alignment?” Then ask: “What would a boundary rooted in self-trust look like in that space?”For leaders:“Where have we been absorbing friction instead of setting clear expectations?”You weren't meant to burn out to be trusted.Sustainable boundaries don't come from behavior tweaks — they come from identity recalibration.RESOURCES:BOOK: The Best Yes, by Lysa TerKeurstIf this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Maxx Cumby McGee has been planning the Gott Street Blues clothing brand since the 90s when she was one of a very few women in the construction world - life just delayed it. Maxx's story is both hillarious and eye opening; how she started in modeling at 19, and got into construction by making friends with the CEO of Anheuser-Busch, and showing up on her first day with a pink toolbox and men's work clothes that nearly got her injured because there were no women's work clothes. This is a longer episode, but I'll bet it goes by quicker than you expect, because Maxx is very entertaining, and this story about fashion for the workplace is fascinating!If you asked Maxx  what GottStreet Blues is about, she would say,"Clothing for women doing physical labor, clothing that was made with women in mind, getting past vanity sizing, meeting comfort with functionality and fit for women specifically." We talk about this a lot because it's been a real issue for her at work, and it affects others today, as more women are entering the trades for work. GottStreet Blues is a sustainable clothing company for women who work in the trades - or women who have trouble finding clothes that really fit (raising my hand). Maxx's message she wants you to remember: "Trust yourself, you can do anything, anytime, at any age." To Dye For documentary: https://www.todyeforthedocumentary.com/You can find Maxx's website here https://gottstreetblues.com/She's also on TikTok here https://www.tiktok.com/@maxxwell814Send me a message!Support the showPlease follow Grounded In Maine podcast on Instagram here YouTube channel link is here You can DM me there or email me at amysgardenjam@gmail.com Website for Amy's Garden Jam is https://amysgardenjam.com/ (podcast has its own tab on this site!)

In this episode,The Future is Now: Youth, Civic Power and Sustainable Democracy, John Stuart explores how empowering youth is essential to building a sustainable democracy.  Drawing on sustainability principles, real-world research and the UN Sustainable Development Goals, John reveals how SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 16 (Peace, Justice & Strong Institutions) can be used as powerful methods for promoting civic engagement. From viewing democracy as an interconnected ecosystem to applying regenerative design thinking, this conversation offers practical strategies for equipping young people with the knowledge, agency and access they need to shape the future. The takeaway is clear: the health of our democracy depends on ensuring the next generation's voices are not only heard, but built into the foundation of our institutions.ReferencesBallard, P.

Send me a messageSupply chains are responsible for the majority of global emissions, yet they remain the hardest to decarbonise. In this episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I sit down with Saskia van Gendt, Chief Sustainability Officer at Blue Yonder, to explore how data, AI, and end-to-end visibility are changing that equation.Saskia brings two decades of sustainability experience across government, retail, and manufacturing. We dig into the urgent challenge of Scope 3 emissions - why they make up 60%+ of global carbon output, why they're so difficult to measure, and how regulatory pressure is finally starting to unlock action.We discuss how AI-powered supply chain platforms can optimise sourcing decisions on the fly, set carbon budgets, and reduce waste, from manufacturing to reverse logistics. Saskia shares real-world examples, from cutting a million transport miles in South America to reducing food waste by 15% through demand-supply optimisation.We also cover the overlap between resilience and sustainability, the impact of tariffs and CBAM, and how leaders can align sustainability targets with operational KPIs. The big takeaway? Sustainability isn't a compliance box, it's a strategic advantage for retailers, manufacturers, and logistics providers willing to integrate it into core supply chain decisions.If you're a supply chain leader looking to make measurable progress on emissions reduction, waste management, and resilience, this conversation is packed with actionable insights.Elevate your brand with the ‘Sustainable Supply Chain' podcast, the voice of supply chain sustainability.Last year, this podcast's episodes were downloaded over 113,000 times by senior supply chain executives around the world.Become a sponsor.

OVERVIEW: Let's get real—fat loss isn't just about eating perfectly clean meals and living in the gym. In this episode, I'm breaking down what true sustainable fat loss looks like (and it might surprise you). If you've ever felt like you're doing “all the right things” but still not seeing results—or if you've been stuck in a cycle of restrictive dieting and burnout—this conversation is for you. We'll discuss why the slow, steady approach is often the most effective, how to avoid chasing quick fixes, and what it actually takes to lose fat and keep it off.

My guest this week is Dr Dionne Payn – social entrepreneur, impact investment specialist, and Founder of Women4Homes, a groundbreaking initiative working to end homelessness for women by 2030 through values-aligned property investment. Dionne has spent her career designing ethical investment solutions that prioritise both social and financial returns. With a background in chemistry, property development, and social enterprise, she brings a rare interdisciplinary lens to one of Australia's most urgent challenges: housing justice. At the heart of Dionne's work is a bold vision – to empower a million women to invest in homes for other women, while building financial security themselves. Her approach blends systems thinking, community-led design, and inclusive investment models to unlock new pathways from crisis to stability, and ultimately, ownership. In this episode, we explore the structural drivers of housing inequality, what a more equitable system could look like, and why dignity, choice, and long-term thinking must be at the centre of every housing solution.

In this eye-opening episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Allyson Nicole—NASM-certified personal trainer, nutrition coach, and probation officer—to uncover the powerful connection between mindset and sustainable health. Allyson shares her personal journey through disordered eating, overtraining, and self-sabotage, and how a single mindset shift helped her break the cycle and rebuild her relationship with food. Learn how to challenge limiting beliefs, escape the trap of all-or-nothing thinking, and start making empowered health choices from a place of self-love, not shame. Whether you're stuck in the binge-restrict loop or tired of starting over every Monday, this episode gives you the mental tools to finally make lasting change. Tune in to gain practical strategies rooted in behavior change theory, psychology, and real-world coaching. About the Guest:Allyson Nicole is a NASM-certified personal trainer, certified nutrition coach, and full-time probation officer. As founder of Allyson Nicole Nutrition, she integrates real-world coaching with behavior change psychology to help individuals break out of restrictive cycles and live a more empowered, balanced life. Key Takeaways : Mindset is the foundation of health—not just a starting point. Allyson explains how most people sabotage their progress due to the all-or-nothing thinking trap. Shifting from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset opens the door to sustainable, non-restrictive health practices that actually work. Allyson shares her journey of overcoming disordered eating by dropping food rules, refusing to weigh herself, and embracing food neutrality—highlighting that dopamine-driven cravings reduce when food loses its “forbidden” label. Her work as a probation officer gives her a unique lens on behavior change. She uses CBT-based tools like the “Thinking Report” to help clients examine their thoughts, emotions, and beliefs objectively. Replacing negative self-talk with empowering scripts—like “I don't do that anymore” or “I'll start now, not tomorrow”—can radically change behavior patterns. Overtraining and under-eating don't lead to long-term success. Instead, coaching should be about helping people find routines that truly fit their lives.   Connect with Allyson Nicole: Instagram, Facebook, TikTok: [@allysoncoaches] Website: www.allysoncoaches.com   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM on PodMatch – Send a message here:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST: Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES Business Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/corporatepodcasting/ Individual Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/Podcasting/ Share Your Story With World – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/shareyourstory   STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!• YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@healthymind-healthylife• Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.pod• Threads – https://www.threads.net/@healthyminds.pod• Medium – https://medium.com/@contentbyavik• Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymind• LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/reemachatterjee/ | https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster• Pinterest – https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW Share your Google Review – https://www.podpage.com/bizblend/reviews/new/ Share a video Testimonial – https://famewall.healthymindbyavik.com/   #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #mindset #wellnesspodcast #nutritioncoach #bodypositivity #MentalHealthAwareness #growthmindset #fitnesswithoutshame #behaviorchange #storytellingasmedicine #motivation #healingjourney #podcastinglife #newpodcast #personaldevelopment #wellbeing #selfcare #foryou #explorepage #mindfulnessmatters #fitnessjourney #holistichealth #inspirationdaily

Gen Z is reshaping the frozen food game… and they're not settling for TV dinners. But while they're hungry for health and convenience, there's a catch: the price tag. Can wellness-focused frozen meals stay accessible, or are they becoming a luxury in disguise? The hosts discuss, and also sample Korean-style hard seltzers, culturally-inspired craft sodas and a potentially game-changing brand of non-alcoholic spirits. Show notes: 0:35: Voice Nail. A Notable List. Investors Here. Bites & Chews. So Long, Stouffer's. Trash Panda. NA Negronis. – The hosts chat about disliking the sound of their own voices before spotlighting the release of the 2025 NOSH Notables list, which honors leaders and innovators in food. They also highlight the number of investors registered for Taste Radio's Chicago Meetup, which takes place on August 14. Mike and John discuss standout finds from a recent UNFI show, including latke-inspired crisps, “baguette bites,” and low-sugar gummies. The hosts then turn their attention toward the growing trend of premium frozen meals and note the balance between health, convenience, and cost as a key consumer concern. They wrap up the show with a sampling of a hard seltzer made with fermented rice, a Twizzler-style candy brand, and a brand of alcohol alternatives that de-alcoholizes wine and spirits to create products that closely mimic whiskey, Campari, mezcal and more.

The Mariners offense shined again in Wednesday's win and Salk discusses the sustainability of the lineup and the depth it has, one through nine. Then, they re-air their conversation with ESPN's Seth Wickersham to discuss his new book, the Seahawks and plenty more.

Episode Summary: In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, the hosts explore the key themes from the recent article, “Redefining Workplace Culture: A Human-Centered Approach to Engagement and Wellbeing.” Serving as a pointed response to the 2025 Gallagher Workforce Trends Report, this conversation challenges surface-level interpretations of employee engagement, workplace culture, and inclusion initiatives—offering a bold alternative grounded in human-first leadership. The hosts question the validity of engagement metrics derived from surveys, calling out what they term the "engagement illusion"—a widespread misinterpretation that equates participation with satisfaction. They unpack the growing disconnect between career development and employee wellbeing, warning that promotion pipelines without adequate emotional and workload support can accelerate burnout rather than boost loyalty. In discussing I&D (Inclusion and Diversity) efforts, the conversation highlights how many initiatives fall short of meaningful impact, often skewing performative rather than truly transformative. Instead, the hosts emphasize the need for authentic inclusion practices that uplift underrepresented voices and embed equity into daily operations. They also examine the shifting expectations around flexible work arrangements, stressing that flexibility is no longer a luxury, it's a baseline requirement for modern talent.
