Today’s guest is Shelby Taylor, founder and CEO of Chickapea, the all-organic, high-protein, plant-based pasta, sold in 3,000 stores across North America. Shelby is an entrepreneur on a mission to create good for the world through nutritious food that’s not only good for you but also does not harm the planet. She also happens to be part of the rare 2% of women to receive funding, having just closed $9.3M in financing in her last round, having just closed $9.3M in financing in her last round, with $16M raised overall.

In 2019, Chickapea was ranked in the top 10% of all Certified B Corps on the planet—a clear reflection of Shelby’s commitment to meeting the highest standards of social and environmental impact— not bad for an entrepreneur who began only 6 years ago. Chickpea is also a certified women-owned business, something especially important to Shelby.
