Episode 120 - Carly Stein : Our Choices Define Us

Carly Stein is the founder of Beekeeper’s Naturals. Bringing the superfoods from the hive to consumers through their products such as propolis spray, honey, B.XLR Brain Fuel, and honey sticks, they’re helping people live healthier than ever. Born and raised in Toronto, Canada, at around the age of 11 Carly found out she had an autoimmune disease that rejected any & all antibiotics. She attended University of Victoria as a Psychology & Biology major. While studying abroad and getting severe tonsillitis in Italy, she was recommended to try propolis, a product that stemmed from plants and tree resin used to line beehives and protect them from germs. It was this moment that completely changed her life as it healed her without any reactions to her body. After graduating she worked at a hedge fund and then as a trader for Goldman Sachs. What started as a passion project to help herself, accidentally turned into a business. With a demand for Beekeepers Naturals products and coworkers telling her not to leave her career, she quit and devoted all of her energy to helping people through these superfoods. Today they’re a team of 15 focused on practicing sustainable beekeeping in all of their production as well as educating the role bees play in the world. In this Episode Carly discusses doing what is best for us & not caring what people think, having a fancy job but living like a college student, take a step back and giving our brain a break, helping people reach their full potential and how our choices define us. - If you enjoy this podcast, please leave us a 1 sentence review on the iTunes Podcast App with your honest feedback OR screenshot this Episode, post it to your Instagram Story tagging @Carly.Stein & @PurposeintheYouth!  - Connect with Carly!
