His grandfather Eleno Rodriguez Ochoa started a candy company in Monterrey Mexico in 1940, so we know where this passion came from.His current venture, Heart Soul Heat, is on a mission to change the idea of what 100% American looks and tastes like. I learned from Raoul that in the US, there has been an increasing amount of BIPOC people. This change in racial demographics is leading the change in higher spice levels in foods they eat and the demand to be represented in the brands that they purchase from. Stay tuned for the spotlight story at the halfway point of the show. As we are joined by someone who has a passion for Mexican culture, we will look into an article from Forbes titled, From Kind To Bold, SOMOS Foods Brings Together The Essence Of Mexican Cuisine And A New Age Of Latino Entrepreneurship.

It closed after 10 years in 2018. He has always wanted to get into CPG and Covid gave him the time I needed to flesh out this idea. Guest website: https://heartsoulheat.comStore Locator: https://heartsoulheat.com/pages/storesThis product is not direct to consumer – this link to request a store to buy it.Thank you for stopping by That Entrepreneur Show: The podcast where top performing entrepreneurs around the globe stop by to provide you with the tools you need.

This fundamental mindset shift integrates your “goal” of being a profitable business owner, starting a new wellness practice or even letting go of to-dos that don’t serve you into a part of the future of who you want to be.She is going to share the difference between goals and states and how you can use this mindset strategy to make more steady, holistic progress towards success over time.She will also delve into how she’s learned to:·       Decide if you should lead with a goal or a state to achieve what you want·       Notice small things that are standing in the way and the impact they have on our progress and experience of success Guest website: https://feelmoreproductive.com/WebsiteYouTubeHost InstagramShow InstagramFacebookTwitterLinkedInListen to A Mental Health Break Episodes hereFor Digital Editing Inquiries/ Potential Podcast Guests, email: PodcastsByLanci@Gmail.com Support the showThank you for tuning in!
