Episode 10 - Real and Relatable Takeover // Real Rad Food // Sarah Gillum

Sarah bought Real Rad Food just over two years ago, and this conversation offers such a refreshing perspective on what it’s really like to take over an existing business rather than build one from scratch. She opens up about the reality of stepping into a brand with little experience, the challenges that came with finding her footing, and the resilience it took to keep pushing forward. Special Delivery: brought to you by Go Sweet Spot - Sarah shares her morning routine of reading over her goals that she has written at the start of the year, a kind of manifestation she finds grounding to set herself up for the day and to also dream big with what she wants to achieve.
