Sam shares how incentivizing fitness can lead to real results as well as her personal journey in developing a healthy relationship with health and wellness. Sam shares her journey starting Vizer, which is an innovative app that supports a sustainable daily wellness routine by partnering with health-forward brands to incentivize exercise, increase access to healthy foods and promote whole-person health. Kristel and Sam also chat about keys for a successful employee wellness program as well as a look into what it takes to get a wellness company off the ground.  Tune in now! Key Takeaways from This Episode How to get motivated to create healthy habits How to create a business in the health and wellness space How to build relationships with key brand partners to grow your business Keys are to a successful wellness program How to get people motivated to make positive changes Sam's journey with leadership Sam's big takeaways from participating in pitch competitions About Samantha Pantazopoulos, ​CEO and Co-founder, Vizer: Samantha (Sam) Pantazopoulos is a maverick social entrepreneur, brand strategist and connector of people and ideas. As the co-founder and CEO of Vizer, a social wellness platform on a mission toward Democratizing Wellness®, she is responsible for leading the company’s growth and direction, scientific research, marketing efforts and community relationships.   Pantazopoulos was inspired to create Vizer while studying abroad and struggling with unhealthy habits.  She took a last-minute opportunity to join the program’s Social Innovation Challenge, where she learned about how to use business as a resource to sustain social good. The potential impact of social innovation blew her away, and she set out to create a platform that would make healthy living more accessible for all members of the community, regardless of circumstance.  Vizer is an innovative app that supports a sustainable daily wellness routine by partnering with health-forward brands to incentivize exercise, increase access to healthy foods and promote whole-person health.  When users track and complete a daily fitness activity (like walking 10K steps, exercising for 30 minutes or taking a partner studio class), Vizer partners donate a meal with U.S. food banks to populations in need. Users also earn points towards better-for-you rewards at restaurants, retail and online. Since launching Vizer nationwide in 2019 with her cousin and close friend, Dylan Barbour, the platform has converted more than 2.5 million workouts into meal donations distributed through U.S. food banks.  ​Pantazopoulos graduated summa cum laude from the University of San Diego in 2017, where she majored in business administration. She is the recipient of multiple social entrepreneurship awards and was named the Rising Star Entrepreneur of the Year at the 2019 Women's Venture Summit.  When Pantazopoulos isn’t busy creating social change through tech and community resources, she can be found spending time with friends and family, mentoring the next generation of female entrepreneurs and soaking up the local health and wellness scene in San Diego.   Website: https://www.vizerapp.com/impact  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vizerapp/  https://www.instagram.com/sampantazopoulos/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/vizerapp  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/vizer/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/scpantazopoulos/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/vizerapp  About the Host of the Live Greatly podcast, Kristel Bauer: Kristel, the Founder of Live Greatly, is on a mission to help people thrive personally and professionally.
