Summary
In this episode, I sit down with Danielle DuBoise, co-founder of Sakara, to discuss how she and her childhood friend Whitney Tingle created the wellness brand, from early days of the business to now shipping to every zip code in the U.S. Danielle shares the health journeys that both she and Whitney went on that led to founding Sakara, how they have scaled Sakara’s growth and success over the years, and how a Sakara recipe is created, tested, and produced over a series of months. We also talk about how much women underestimate the impact of stress on their bodies, how Danielle sets boundaries around work and parenting, and what’s in store for Sakara’s future.
