From the bustling corridors of Goldman Sachs to the humming fields of bee apiaries, my guest today, Carly Stein Kremer, took a path that defies convention. The link is a chance discovery of propolis (the "immune system" of a beehive) during her travels abroad, which didn't just alleviate her long-standing health woes but redefined her entire life's mission. Now, instead of stock charts, Carly's world revolves around bee charts, and instead of fiscal health, she's dedicated to championing the incredible health benefits of bees and their offerings.

Carly's not just another entrepreneur; she's a bee ambassador. She's a voice for sustainable beekeeping, advocating for our planet's key pollinators in ways many overlook. And it's not just about making a product through her company Beekeeper’s Naturals; it's about a holistic approach – partnering with responsible apiaries, researching with top bee institutions, and ensuring that every product that carries the Beekeeper’s Naturals name stands up to rigorous, pesticide-free standards. She did all this while being a flagbearer for change, with accolades like the Forbes 30 Under 30 acknowledging her visionary stride. A well-known expert, Carly has also been featured in Allure and Vogue magazine, along with numerous podcast appearances to share the importance of bees in our daily lives.

Beekeeper's Naturals offers a compelling glimpse into the inherent magic of propolis. This wondrous substance, the defender of the hive, brims with essential vitamins, antioxidants, and a plethora of beneficial compounds, providing a natural defense mechanism for both bees and humans. And Carly's brand ensures this magic is captured in its most organic, uncontaminated form. (Use code BEN to save 20%)
