This week, we ventured into a realm that's both ancient and cutting-edge – the world of functional mushrooms, explored through the entrepreneurial journey of cousins Stephanie Moyal and Jake Mellman, co-founders of Troop.

 

Why mushrooms, you might ask? Well, the answer is as fascinating as it is profound. In our quest to remain vibrant and healthy in the second half of our lives, we often overlook nature's simple solutions. Mushrooms, as I've learned from Stephanie and Jake, are not just culinary delights but are packed with remarkable health benefits.

 

Our conversation took an exciting turn as we delved into the origins of Troop. This wasn't just a business talk; it was a story of transformation, resilience, and discovery. Stephanie and Jake shared how their personal experiences during COVID led them to explore the healing properties of mushrooms. From experimenting with mushroom cultivation in a closet to creating one of the most innovative health-focused brands today, their journey is nothing short of inspiring.

 

But this episode isn't just about Troop's journey. It's a revelation of the untapped potential of mushrooms in enhancing our health, especially as we age. We explored how these functional fungi can boost our immune system, enhance brain health, and potentially aid in the recovery process from various health challenges.

 

For anyone over 50 looking to embrace a healthier, more vibrant lifestyle, this episode is a must-listen. It's an invitation to rethink our approach to wellness and to consider nature's humble yet powerful solutions.
 

I invite you to join us in this fascinating discussion and discover how Troop is making mushrooms approachable and enjoyable. Let's continue to explore and embrace the wonders of nature together. Welcome to the troop!
