My guest in this episode of the #RenegadeRadioPodcast is Cavin Balaster. In 2011 Cavin sustained a severe traumatic brain injury after a two-story fall. He was initially comatose for 12 days and given less than 10% chance of ever regaining consciousness beyond a vegetative state. Once awake he suffered from severe complications including memory loss, brain fog, breathing problems and double vision. He was unable to eat, walk or talk for several months.   About a year after his injury Cavin was introduced to a nutritional protocol that helped him begin to regain some clarity. He devoted his life to the study of metabolism, neurometabolism, neuroscience and nutrition and learned everything he could about how to optimize brain function and maximize recovery. While documenting his recovery process he developed his award-winning blog, “Adventures in Brain Injury”. Today he is a speaker, educator and author of “How to Feed a Brain: Nutrition for Optimal Brain Function and Repair.”   If you want to know how to optimize the health and performance of your brain don’t miss this episode.   Show notes for this and every episode can be found at www.JasonFerruggia.com   This episode is brought to you by Cured Nutrition.  CBD is a game changer when it comes to reducing inflammation and improving sleep quality.

Why is it so difficult and expensive to get healthy food?  That’s the question my guest in this episode, Gunnar Lovelace, asked himself as a child and it’s the problem he’s determined to solve as an adult.     Gunnar is the co-CEO of Thrive Market, an online wholesale buying club which offers the best natural and organic products on the market at 25-50% less than retail prices.  Having grown from 10 to 400 employees in only 18 months, Thrive Market is the fastest growing health food e-Commerce company in history.   As the child of a single mother, Gunnar experienced firsthand how difficult it can be for low income families to buy healthy foods.  After his mother remarried, Gunnar spent time with his stepfather who ran a co-op out of a hippie commune. The experience showed him how to make food more affordable and how to build community.  He felt there was a tremendous opportunity and responsibility to allow everyone access to healthy nutrition. In 2014 he and his partners in Thrive Market set out on a mission to “make healthy living easy and affordable for every American family.”     In this episode we discuss how Gunnar started out as an entrepreneur and the challenges he overcame to start Thrive Market.  We discuss the health and fitness marketing lies you should be aware of and how to avoid them. We delve into the importance of strong leadership, how to create a positive culture within a company, tips for growing a business, morning routines for a successful day and much more.     Show notes for this and every episode can be found at www.JasonFerruggia.com   This episode is brought to you by Organifi, an organic, superfood supplement line that makes quality trusted nutrition convenient and accessible.
