In this episode of the People Profit Podcast, Sandra Coker sits down with Jodi Scott — CEO and co-founder of Green Goo by Sierra Sage Herbs — for a powerful conversation on what it really means to lead with intention, resilience, and heart.

From nearly losing her family business to buying it back stronger than ever, Jodi opens up about the emotional intelligence and people-first mindset that helped her stay grounded through the chaos. With a background in health psychology and psycho-neuroimmunology (yep, it's a mouthful!), she shares why regulation must come before strategy — and how the body, just like a business, is always listening.

They explore the reality of building a business with family, cultivating psychologically safe teams, and what it takes to create a mission-driven company that serves both customers and employees with integrity.

If you're a leader navigating change, burnout, or big decisions — this episode is a breath of fresh (plant-powered) air.
