“Understanding through growth, how to have that balance, and to be yourself has been a really big learning for me as an entrepreneur.”
Allison Ellsworth is the founder Poppi, a revolutionary better-for-you soda brand that you've probably seen in every store. Allison created Poppi in her kitchen by combining apple cider vinegar with refreshing flavors. After gaining national attention on Shark Tank and then rebranding, Allison has propelled Poppi to become a top-selling beverage.
Poppi was recently sold to PepsiCo for $1.95 billion, a testament to all of Allison's hard work and passion. Tune in and hear how Allison's health journey inspired Poppi's creation, how she achieves work-life balance, and the importance of authentic social media content.
