Great read via Supermarket News, Mark Hamstra centered around why retailers should care about the wider functional beverage market…   We truly believe in the significant impact functional beverages have on consumer of all ages, and are glad to see so many trusted and well-established retailers such as Thrive Market, Whole Foods Market, Target, Sprouts Farmers Market, 7-Eleven and Natural Grocers continuing to lead the charge on this front.   We look forward to more retailers opening up their hearts and doors to more functional brands in 2024 and beyond.   To read the full article, click the link below: https://lnkd.in/drTsVXRF  

Gaining momentum in our home state and my alma mater at Arizona State University and their athletes. I would like to thank the Sun Angel Collective, Brittany Willett & Zach Thorton for the invitation to support the ASU Wrestling Team & legendary wrestler & coach, Zeke Jones along with 2024 National Champion, Richard Figueroa. Our goal is to help support these athletes at Arizona State and other programs we connect with. These student-athletes work hard in whatever sport they participate in from the fanfare of football to silence & still nature of archery, they compete and follow strict guidelines on what they eat and drink … did you know highly caffeinated drinks are banned from the NCAA… Thank you Sun Angel Collective and looking forward to more events.

The journey of a female founder is often met with glass ceilings, walls, and floors. Requirements and expectations on startups have become insane barriers to market entry, monopolized by the "big guys." Someday there will be "big gals" too. Building bridges rather than blockades. There are good people like Rémy Gogoll and Scott R., actually walking this walk. Changemakers who don't just "want" to support women and under represented founders, they're doing the work to make that happen. BeTheDifference Fund is raising money to support entrepreneurship, level the playing field, in a new path. Instead of sharks and "obligations", as Mark Cuban reminds us, this is a new campaign to help women and under represented founders build their businesses and dreams, and expand the ability for people to support these founders' businesses. In the style of Richard Branson, forging a new path into entrepreneurship is what BeTheDifference Fund is all about. I hope you join this endeavor in support of female founders, as great people like Ryan Lewendon, Blake Mitchell, Taylor Foxman, Edgar Vargas, Ben Reilley, John Gaudiosi, Tim Oyler, Frank Nitty 🎧, Shelly Rupel, Rebecca Dixon, verta maloney, Leonie Leonard, Gordon Hinkle, Jeffrey T. Pappas, Silver Padilla, Mike Fata and Jake Karls are bridge builders, dream makers, relentless in the pursuit of making a difference in our communities, our world and challenging the headwinds.

Another day out on the field for Sly™ as we help out at Marcos de Neza High School in Tempe, AZ and the GroundUp QB Camp run by former Arizona State QB Coach, Trey Anderson and NFL & CFL QB, Chris Streveler. A great morning out on the field with the QBs and WRs who train 4x/week. Sly™ is quickly becoming their drink of choice as a clean source of energy with NO Caffeine and as a choice to wind down their day with Sly™ CHILL. We will continue to work with the high schools in Arizona as the students approach us from various schools. It is great to know we are having a positive effect one person at a time. @drinkonthesly
