Ep. #92 On today’s episode of Pursuit of Wellness, I am joined by Sweetgreen’s co-founder Nicolas Jammet.

Nicolas highlights the evolution of Sweetgreen's menu, which emphasizes protein-rich dishes and the use of wholesome ingredients like extra virgin olive oil. He also shares insights into his personal wellness journey and how significant life events like marriage and fatherhood have influenced his health perspective.
