LISTEN ON: APPLE PODCASTS | SPOTIFY
Today’s guests are two of my favorite people in the health space, Mark Sisson and Morgan Buehler. Mark is an American author, a food blogger at Mark’s Daily Apple, a former distance triathlete, and an Iron Man competitor. He’s obsessed with health and nutrition, was one of the first to popularize the paleo diet, and has written several books on the topic, including the recently released “The Keto Reset Diet.” He is an encyclopedia of knowledge. And Morgan is a surfer, a soccer player, and a mother who is so down to earth and knows how to get business done. These two, together, were able to get Primal Kitchen out on the scene, grow it like a rocket ship, and sell it to Kraft-Heinz, and there’s just so much to learn from them as business leaders, wellness innovators, and people.
