Episode #95 of The Impactors Podcast features #Impactor Lopa van der Mersch, Founder and CEO of Rasa, a life-changing coffee alternative that leads to less stress, better sleep, and balanced energy, as the adaptogenic coffee alternative revolutionizing people’s relationship to their energy.

Lopa van der Mersch is many things: Ayurvedic practitioner. Mother of two. Sustainability advocate. TEDx speaker. Recovering cult member. Her adventures have taken her around the world in search of health, spiritual fulfillment, and deep energy. 2 Years ago, she added a new chapter to her life story: Founder and CEO of Rasa, the adaptogenic coffee alternatives revolutionizing people’s relationship to their energy. 

In 2015, Lopa endured the most stressful year of her life — she left a destructive cult, underwent surgery while pregnant, lost a beloved family member, and had an emergency cesarean birth. Beaten down and exhausted, she needed a sustainable source of energy that could naturally elevate her mood without burnout, crashes, or jitters - and that wouldn’t be as harsh on her already taxed nervous system as coffee. 

The problem? What she needed didn’t seem to exist — yet. So, inspired by her newborn child and the wisdom of Ayurveda, she partnered with an herbalist and got to work. After countless failures and “almost-but-not-quite” creations, Rasa was born: adaptogen-rich blends that nourish and revitalize the body while providing enough rich, roasty flavor to convert even the most devoted coffee fanatic. Two years later, what started with a mom elbow-deep in herbs in her kitchen has grown into a full-blown energy movement — exploding with tripledigit yearly growth and garnering a following of tens of thousands around the world.

Episode #94 of The Impactors Podcast features #Impactor Brendan Erne, Director of Portfolio Management at Personal Capital, a forward-thinking digital wealth management service.

Brendan is contributing to a revolution in sustainable, socially conscious investing. His goal? To ensure everyday investors have access to the transformational impact of an investment portfolio aligned with their values.

Building Pressure for Positive Change - Investors put a record $51 billion into sustainable investments in 2020, and 77% of institutional investors say they plan to stop buying non-ESG products altogether by 2022. That means companies will either have to clean up their act or miss out on billions in investments. Brendan explores the global implications of punishing polluters where it hurts the most — their balance sheets.

Derrick Kinney is changing the conversation about money. On his podcast, Good Money, Derrick interviews the world’s top business professionals, influencers, authors, and leaders to inspire listeners to build their net worth for good. Sharing insights from conversations with prominent figures like Matthew McConaughey and Netflix co-founder Marc Randolph, Derrick leads with the approach that money is not bad, and good people should have more money to facilitate more good in the world. His mission is to teach others how negative beliefs about money are holding them back, and how to change their money mindset for the better. 

In 2020, after 25 years of leadership within his successful private wealth firm, Derrick sold his business to go all-in on his new mission. He created Good Money Framework, aimed at impacting people who want a deeper relationship with the money in their lives. His seven-part Good Money Framework highlights the importance of backing your money with meaning. It’s where financial leadership meets philanthropy.

Featured by media outlets like Yahoo, PBS, and CNBC - and ranked by Forbes as a Best-In-State Wealth Advisor in 2020, Derrick now advocates for the positive aspects of money, like the power of generosity. He illustrates the potential for the meaning behind the endeavor of money management. Within the Good Money Framework community, Derrick’s work includes guiding members through complex money challenges, from resolving money resentment to raising kids with good money mentalities.
