    The Creation of the Ivan Bar with Founder, Ivan Pelly

    Today I welcome Ivan Pelly, Founder of the Ivan Bar to the show! In 2015, Ivan bought his last grocery-store nutrition bar. For him, they were either too small, too sweet, or just tasted… not so good. He thought he could do better, so he set out to make his own. He studied what kind of ingredients made for great nutrition and great taste, and got to work. After many, many attempts, he arrived at what he thinks is the best nutrition bar on the planet. These bars taste great; they’re good for you, and you don’t need to eat six of them to take the edge off your hunger. Initially, I just made them for himself and his family. Sooner or later, friends got their hands on them, and he was answering questions like, “could you make me some more?” and “where can I buy them?”. This popular demand made him think that maybe the “Ivan Bar” could find a life outside of his fridge and his kids’ lunchboxes. And so they have.  In today's episode, we touch on: How and why Ivan decided to create Ivan Bar. The ingredients in the bars and why he chose the ingredients that he did (hint: they're super clean, nutritious ingredients without any added junk!). What it's like to launch a brand that's build on nutrition – a brand that's built on the actual health benefits of the product, skipping those harmful additives and fillers. Advice Ivan has for those who are looking to start their own business. What Ivan uses to preserve his bars and make them shelf stable instead of harmful chemical preservatives. Why it's so hard for small businesses to get into grocery stores. His favorite flavor + a surprise for what's coming next for Ivan Bar (hint: it's delicious!). You can purchase Ivan Bars on ivan.bar – if you're on the central coast of California, you can also use this store locater to find out where you can snatch some of the bars in person as well. DISCOUNT CODE: Ivan so kindly offered listeners a discount code! If you'd like your code, please email ivan@ivan.bar and he will send you over your code. Stock up on some for yourself and grab a couple extra to give as healthy holiday gifts this season – you won't be sorry you did (trust me!).

    The Benefits of Sea Moss Gel + Why Clean Eating Is So Important with Kate Lovett

    I am excited to welcome Kate Lovett, the founder of Kate's Sea Moss, to the show today!  Kate was in a horrific motorbike accident in 2017 while on a surfing trip in the Philippines. She had multiple lifesaving surgeries and was in the ICU for 6 weeks. Surgeons told Kate she would never have a normal life again. While in recovery and unable to walk, Kate took it upon herself to naturally heal the body. Kate was almost fully recovered through a vegan diet and exercise after a year and a half, except she couldn't kick the fatigue. Kate tried energy drinks, workout drinks, and everything you can think of naturally to get rid of the fatigue, and nothing worked. However, Kate had read about the benefits of Irish Sea Moss and decided to give it a try. The next day after trying Sea Moss, Kate woke up at 7 am and jumped out of bed with tons of energy. She immediately felt the difference from the Sea Moss packed with minerals. Through nutrition, Kate was able to make a 100% recovery over 3 year period. In addition, Kate has helped many people in her community by having this product available at the local grocery stores, and now you have access to it too! In today’s episode, we touch on: What sea moss is, where it comes from The many benefits of sea moss and how it’s helped Kate recover from such traumatic injuries The current issues with the health industry from a female health entrepreneur The importance of sticking with a habit to really see instrumental change What it’s like creating a brand that makes no shortcuts in any way of health You can connect with Kate on instagram at @katesseamoss and you can purchase her sea moss gel on her website at katesseamoss.com.
