  • Episode #43: Alfred & Cam // Founders of VitalFit Nutrition // Fighting Inflammation with Tart Cherry & The Grind of Entrepreneurship

    This week, we have an amazing powerhouse duo on the pod - Cameron and Alfred of VitalFit.

    Cameron and Alfred started VitalFit as a part of their grad school thesis project at Babson. What was a gripe with commissioned sales clerks, flashy marketing, and lack of industry accountability turned into their full-time venture. It was ultimately a back injury from playing basketball that actually led us to their first product.

    Sick of taking ibuprofen and having no luck finding a natural alternative they felt like something was missing. Eventually, they came across tart cherry juice, which was surprisingly effective and began working on the way to best deliver its effects and apply it to the health and wellness space.

    At the same time, they noticed a gap between performance and lifestyle products. There were tons of products for athletes and tons more for general wellness, but few that were meeting in the middle for a fitness-conscious, working professional. All of these events contributed to Alfred and Cameron moving forward with VitalFit.

    Our conversation was fascinating and we are so excited to share it with you as well. Find VitalFit here, and follow them on Instagram here.

  • Episode #41: John & Dan // Husbands // Traveling, Communication, and Marriage Questions

    Friends! We hope you had an amazing weekend — we both had the chance to travel and take a long weekend off of work which was absolutely amazing. It’s always great to mix it up and get ourselves into a different environment.

    This week for a belated Valentine’s Day, we have our husbands back again! We recorded this one on a snowy night and with some wine, so it’s a good one.

    We cover some new topics on this one like…

    - Things our spouses wear that we can’t stand;

    - Things we do for one another that aren’t our favorites but we do them out of love :)

    - The biggest surprises we’ve had in our relationships;

    - How we communicate during the day.

    We love these episodes and would love to hear if you guys love them too. Leave us some questions and we’ll start planning the next one.
