Welcome back to the Thrive Podcast and I’m excited to bring you this episode as I dive deep into the world of adaptogens with Tulsi Spirit owner Elita Mosseri.

Adaptogens - what the heck are they? A group of intelligent plants and mushrooms that have been used for centuries for their ability to help our bodies adapt to everyday challenges and stress - maybe that’s why they’re becoming more popular again as we’re as stress levels continue to climb!

Elita started her journey with medicinal herbs and mushrooms at a young age as this was the norm in her family. After travelling the world and settling in the UK, Elita got back to her roots in Ayurveda; and launched Tulsi Spirit.

We talk:

• The power of adaptogens
• Why sourcing is so important
• What research is ongoing with adaptogens
• My absolute obsession with mushrooms
• The power of plants
• How we can adapt to the huge changes going on in our world today

SOLO EPISODE - THRIVE BRAND NUGGETS: How to pivot your brand but maintain your brand ethics.

Episode 3 of my Brand Nuggets Show...

Covered in this episode:

The current situation worldwide with Covid 19 has shocked us all. But, it’s also pushed us towards absolute creativity and into problem solving mode. When we’re forced to think outside of the box and to not have time to question and assess our ideas - good things happen.

In this episode - I look at a few of the brands that are certainly not in hibernation just now, in fact these brands have pivoted and are thriving.

Robustness & agility. I’ve talked about the ability to pivot before and now, more than ever if you need to pivot you have to pivot quickly.

How to pivot your business and brand but stay true to your brand ethics and mission.

Why - difficulty generating sustainable revenue in your industry market

When - before the above happens ;)

How - step 1 - look at your user base, your existing audience, who are they and what do they want? How can you deliver the current service/products that you currently offer in a different way? Can you package the products up differently, or deliver differently, can you add.

“Change happens very quickly, and brilliant brands are either able to stay up with that change or even be ahead of the curve.”

Listen in and head over to the Thrive Brand Academy Facebook group - I’d love to hear if you have changed or redirected your business and brand during these times.

They’re a brand that I’ve known for a long while now and I love how strong their brand ethics are driven through everything they do.

Thanks for listening in and please do head over to itunes and hit subscribe, write a review of the show as I always love hearing your feedback.

The juicy bits from this episode...

• How do you go from PR to Protein?
• Tell me about your ingredients, your sourcing methods and your brand ethics?
• Making protein products available to all and the importance of having a strong brand mission.

Quotes:

"One moment I was mixing protein, maca and loads of other ingredients and thought wow - would it not be simpler if I can make this in one product"

"The moment of realising that there is a good way to get full nutrition from plant based eating, changed everthing, but we're all different - you have to listen your own body!"

"I'm the kind of person who takes research seriously, I'm not a practising nutritionist but am a qualified clinical nutritionist - I needed to understand the subject to enable me to best inform my customers"

"A successful brand is not what's in the bag!"

Bare Biology supply high quality Omega 3 fish oils and supplements and Melanie is a huge advocate for transparency when it comes to talking about mental health. Welcome to the show Melanie…

What we cover in this episode:

• Omega 3 and posta-natal depression
• During pregnancy the mothers DHA goes direct to the baby, this now has been proven to have a direct link to postnatal depression.
• Finding a sustainable supplier is key - research and go and visit suppliers
• Omega 6 and Omega 3 are out of balance in the Western world. Our diets are filled with Omega 6 via veg oil production and processed foods. Omega 3’s come from oily fish and this doesn’t play such a bold part in our diet these days!

Quotes:

“ The smaller the wild fish then the lower the contamination levels”

“It’s ok to put your eggs in one basket as long as you look after those eggs really well!”

“Consumers are changing their priorities, choice is becoming much more important for individuals, and for the environment”

“Fresh fish is just not so abundant in our diets these days and so omega 3’s have to come from other routes”

Introduction
Welcome back to the Ethical Entrepreneurs Podcast, on the show this week we have Scott Russell, co-founder and CEO of Paddy & Scotts Coffee. I love the ethics, the background and the growth of this company. So, welcome to the show Scott…

What we cover in this episode:

How with huge growth brings huge challenges in supply chain management.

Coffee is the second most traded commodity to oil - why it’s important to look after the farmers.

Supply chains don’t have to be elongated - simplify it. Build a model that lets your customers deal direct with the producers.

How telling the stories of your producers can help build the relationship between brand and consumer.

We’re quite happy to pay £3 for a coffee but the farmers get probably as little as 3p for that crop.

King Charles banned coffee shops in 18th century as he seen them as places of scheming and planning!

Quotes:

“What we do is to use the whole crop of coffee - so it is much more sustainable”.

“The farm is broken down into 6500 membership plots - each membership is a tangible tree! It’s a direct collaboration between the farmer and the consumer”.

“It’s much more than business, but we’re a commercial business. Big business doesn’t have to be bad!”

“Consumers are savvy now and they understand - authenticity is the big currency”.

Welcome back to the Ethical Entrepreneurs Podcast, on the show today we have registered nutritional therapist - Sandra Greenbank. Sandra focuses on nutrition and fertility and as well as running her own nutritional practice, she’s also a renowned speaker and runs nutrition based workshops throughout the UK. Welcome Sandra...

What we discuss:

• How one life changing session with a nutritional therapist completely changed her life direction.
• How the body is self-healing when it’s in it’s ultimate state.
• Once you look to adopt a healthy diet pre-pregnancy, then that carries through to your children and all future generations too.
• Nutritional therapy is always personalised and DNA testing is a part of understanding long-term health. But, it’s a new area and we are still understanding the implications and level of details that it gives.
• If you are using any of the home DNA kits, make sure to be aware of where your data is going and how it is being used.
• The trouble with generic treatment is we are 100% unique, that’s why programmes have to be 100% tailored to the person.

Quotes:

“Working with friends and family can be the hardest thing to ever take on. You just can’t heal your friends and family!”

“I actually pinch myself every morning, because I love my work so much - it’s so rewarding.”

“There’s so many good things about the amount of information available, but there’s a downside as it is causing confusion too.”

“The trouble with online info is that there’s a lot of people out there having success and then telling others to do the same. But, maybe it was what that 1 person needed - it may not be right from you”!

“I would always say don’t buy your supplements from a mainstream pharmacy - go to an independent retailer or via your nutritionist”.

I’m Sue Hay - Editor and CEO of Thrive Magazine. I’m really excited about today's guest. She is a Welsh, British and Spanish Open Karate Knockdown Champion and holds a silver medal in Full Contact Knockdown Karate. Plus she has over 20 years experience as a behavioural change specialist supporting people to improve their lifestyle and maximise their performance.

Heads up: this episode has a little bit of echo at the beginning - but it improves at 1:45s

What we discuss:

• How finding your own kind of movement is key to making it a long term habit.
• Empowerment and how acting early on a problem or issue is claiming your power over the situation.
• How to form healthy habits and have a mental checklist to bring yourself back to a calm state of mind.
• How a walking meeting was radicle back 10-15 years ago! Whereas now, it’s being adopted more and more.
• How it’s become a modern day problem that we have to make a conscious choice to move.
• Are your day-to-day behaviours matching what is important to you?

Quotes:

“Empowerment, is about being a lot more proactive with people, I want to act and help people before a serious problem arises, to motivate them to take action early”

“You can’t make people change, you can inspire people about change, but it’s about building their motivation and confidence, to allow them make the change they want.”

“I choose to be around people who inspire me - your network and the people you surround yourself with is really important”

“I want people to have the right knowledge on mindset and help them to act on it”

I’m Sue Hay - Editor and CEO of Thrive Magazine. I’m really excited to have Joe Welstead on the Ethical Entrepreneur Podcast. Joe competed for Scotland in the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, he’s a professional swimmer and Co-founder of Motion Nutrition.

As a professional athlete, Joe found it extremely frustrating that so many sports supplements were made using low quality, artificial ingredients, with little concern for the user’s long-term health. And so along with his business partner Charlie they launched Motion Nutrition - to offer real-food based organic certified sports supplements.

What we discuss:

• Nutrition for high level performance - to be on top of your game.
• Ways to find quality and expert information on health & nutrition.
• How solving a problem is key to launching your ethical business.
• The biggest takeaways and life lessons from running a health based business.
• How can we help people have healthy relationships with those around them?
• Ways to transfer to a more ethical based packaging for your products.

Quotes:

“We’re faced now with such an influx of information, on any given day we’re bombarded with new information. This is now one of the biggest challenges we have - we want to help people deal with this better”

“Spend time with the people that you love.”

“I’ve learnt recently about a new technique called animal flow - which is a great way to get some movement in your day and it’s the perfect antidote to sitting at a desk all day”

“You don’t need to do it like everybody else, but you do need to move, you need to find what works for you”

“It’s a real challenge to make a products packaging useful to the user and also environmentally friendly”

“You need to have empathy - you need to understand as an entrepreneur what will improve people's lives”
