• What it was like to struggle with orthorexia in college and how she overcame it
• Her experience starting a blog, coaching clients, launching a local meal delivery service, and finally finding her way to developing her product line
• The role meditation played in her decision to create her signature elixirs, and how the elixirs helper her heal from the impacts of stress, fatigue, and anxiety
• Why she sees failure and setbacks as a good thing, and how it plays a key role in building resilience on the wild journey of entrepreneurship
• And so much more!
