Tracy Bell is a corporate exec turned start-up CEO. In 2016, a health scare in the family prompted Tracy and her husband to reimagine the way tea is processed in an effort to extract more antioxidants. That concept led to the creation of a new category of tea - called Fresh-Leaf TEA - and a product that is being called "the future of tea" by industry leaders. In 2017 their innovation was named Best New Product (Innovation category) at World Tea Expo. And in 2019 Millennia TEA was one of eight companies globally selected for participation in the #1 food innovation accelerator in the world, Food-X, in New York City. Before Millennia TEA, Tracy worked as PR strategist and television reporter, receiving national and international accolades for her work. Originally from Southern Ontario, Tracy has lived in Atlantic Canada for 15+ years and considers herself a full-fledged Maritimer. Tracy and her husband Rory live in New Brunswick with their two (awesome!) kids. Entrepreneurs are the backbone of Canada's economy.

In this Small Biz Founder episodes, we're highlighting the amazing work of Jenny Tse and her business, Sipping Streams Tea Company. She's a certified tea specialist and Sipping Streams has won multiple prizes (including 1st place) at the North American Tea Championships. But how did she get there and how does she and her partner keep everything running? Jenny was born in Hong Kong and raised in Alaska where she was active in the local community, selling her family's vegetables at the local farmers market. After traveling to visit various Chinese tea farms, she was inspired to share the knowledge with her local community.  With restaurateur parents, and after pursuing two previous careers – one of which was as a high school teacher who taught tea classes – Jenny decided to open her own tea room. From there, the rest is history. Jenny published a book filled with her knowledge, has won multiple awards, and was invited to speak at the World Tea Expo. Just this summer, she started the world's Northernmost tea farm, which is also the only geothermal tea farm in the world. There's no limit to what she can (and will) accomplish! We talk about her experience launching and scaling Sipping Streams Tea Company, how it ties into her generational legacy, and how Multi-Stream Machine helped her on her exciting journey, even after she had been in business for several years.

Today George's team is excited to announce MJ Unpacked (Oct 21-22, 2021), the first cannabis trade show in Las Vegas focused on cannabis retailers and THC CPG's. We chatted about the differentiations between this trade show and the well-known MJ Biz Con event taking place the same week in October 2021. MJ Unpacked is focused on offering a more personable experience for attendees to connect, collaborate and access capital. We even heard there's a gong in the middle of the trade show floor where you can celebrate every time you make a deal! George's energy about the cannabis industry and his vision for this event is truly infectious.

Maria is also the author of “Cancer Hates Tea”, which is a beautiful and very informative and inspirational book that was published in 2016.  She was recognized as the “Top Tea Health Advocate” at the 2017 World Tea Expo and is often featured at conferences nationwide, in print media, on television, and on radio and podcast interviews for her success as a social entrepreneur and certified tea and fitness nutrition expert.  The Tea Spot, Inc.TM is a leading producer of handcrafted whole leaf teas and creator of Steepware®—the housewares tools that make your daily tea practice easy and fun.

In this episode of Her Process, I'm chatting with writer and director, Sandra Payne. Sandra began her writing career working on Wishbone and Barney and Friends...yes, that Barney. She has written short films, award winning web series, and commercials. Some fun facts about Sandra: When she lived in Indonesia, her family rescued a hornbill and he used to follow them around camp, honking for them. He was given to the Jakarta zoo when her parents left the country to move back to the United States. She is an Alaskan State Fair champion apple pie baker. When she was eleven, she won a purple ribbon! Sandra has been to six of the seven continents. She's got her eye on Antarctica to round out her collection. She's jumped out of an airplane. Twice. And, she is a tea aficionado. She's attended the World Tea Expo. Twice. During our chat, we talk about Sandra's journey back to writing after losing confidence in her ability at a pretty pivotal age. We talk a bit about how, and why she entered into the world of directing. She shares what motivated her to finally write that novel. And, let me tell you, after hearing her talk about this, you're going to feel motivated to do that thing that you've been putting off, or waiting for the perfect time to start working on. So, pour yourself a cup of tea (or coffee). Here is Sandra Payne. For show notes and photos, please visit herprocess.com.
