Inspiring Guests. Authentic Talk.

Latest Episode:

On today’s episode, we welcome Hannah Barnstable, CEO & Co-Founder of Seven Sundays — the certified B Corp breakfast brand on a mission to flip the cereal aisle on its head. What began as a farmer’s market side hustle after Hannah left her investment banking career has grown into one of the largest natural cereal brands in the U.S., now found in Whole Foods, Sprouts, Costco, Target, and more.
Inspired by a honeymoon discovery of real muesli in New Zealand, Hannah set out to prove that breakfast could be made with 100% real ingredients — no refined sugars, artificial flavors, dyes, preservatives, GMOs, or glyphosate. In this conversation, we talk about building a mission-driven CPG brand from scratch, pioneering upcycled ingredients in cereal, scaling sustainably, and redefining what the American morning routine can look like. A thoughtful episode for founders, operators, and anyone passionate about real food, better systems, and building brands with purpose.

This podcast is amazing! Insightful, uplifting, inspiring, thought provoking…I can’t get enough! As a recent college graduate trying to chart my own path…I find golden nuggets of wisdom in every podcast. I’ve been following Kara for years and love getting to know her in this facet. Such a valuable listen!

Kara has a great balance of getting to the details and finding the deeper threads of the concepts while keeping things fluid and fun. A must listen for anyone looking to learn.

I am so inspired by Kara and not a bit surprised by the line up of “movers and shakers” she has chosen to interview. When I saw Dr. Robert Lustig on the list I was absolutely delighted! Keep up the fight against sugar, Kara, and keep inspiring others on a daily basis! Thank you for what you do.

I love Kara’s questions and her naturally flowing conversations with her guests. I’ve learned so much about developing your own business with little to no experience from the episodes with Alli Webb, Randi Zuckerberg and Ellen Bennett. Kara can relate too based off of her interview in Rebecca Jarvis’ no limits podcast which makes it even more relatable for me. Great job!!!
