When Co-Founders Julie Sawaya and Ryan Woodbury decided to undergo nutrient testing, they were shocked to learn that despite eating and doing all of the "right things," they had serious nutrient deficiencies. Food alone wasn't meeting their needs. Both Julie and Ryan were seriously deficient in Omega-3 and other key nutrients for fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum well-being. As they set out on their own pregnancy journeys, they started doing the research and realized a brand centered around nourishment with better supplements was desperately "needed." Nearly all women have nutrient deficiencies, and prenatal vitamins were not making up the difference. Despite 97% of women in the US taking a prenatal supplement, 95%+ are still deficient. Their mission is to empower real nourishment in women on their journey to motherhood. They do this by helping mamas and mamas-to-be better identify their nutrition needs, creating supplements that truly work in meeting those needs, and building a supportive community of like-minded mamas and trusted health practitioners.Julie also shares:Her own personal journey of motherhoodHow building a practitioner partner community is the foundation of the brandWhy finding the right person to fund the brand with empathy was essentialExpansion plans You'll also hear Julie’s biggest insights and what's next for Needed.We hope you enjoy this episode and gain valuable insights into Julie's journey and the growth of her brand.

Growing up on a farm in Denmark, Kirsten was far from the world of beauty she found herself in NYC. While her upbringing was not conventional, Kirsten knew she was destined for greatness and listened to her gut from a very young age. Kirsten Kjaer Weis worked around the world for some of the most renowned fashion magazines like Vogue, Elle and Marie Claire. As an in-demand makeup artist, Kirsten found that people were sacrificing the health of their skin by using irritating, synthetic makeup. The natural products, however, were not up to par in performance, and the luxury of the beauty experience was lost. Kirsten used her experience growing up in a natural environment and her knowledge of beauty to pursue uncharted territory in the industry, creating Kjaer Weis - a pioneer in organic, luxury beauty. Kirsten has led the brand since 2010 and it continues to thrive as one of the leading clean beauty brands.Kirsten also shares:How she pioneered the “organic” and clean beauty spaceHow the brand offers sustainable packaging optionsHow the brand has evolved over the last decadeHow the brand remains true to its ethos and avoids “trends” in beautyYou'll also hear Kirsten’s advice to her younger self and what's next for Kjaer Weis.Be sure to check out Kjaer Weis at www.kjaerweis.com and on Instagram @kjaerweisWe hope you enjoy this episode and gain valuable insights into Kirsten's journey and the growth of her brand.
