Bridgitte Carroll is the founder and CEO of GutPersonal, a one-of-a-kind supplement company that empowers everyone to heal from within. Chris and I are investors of GutPersonal and it’s been incredible to witness Bridgitte’s growth since launching the brand. We talk about what it was like to raise money and bring on investors, including how she got connected with the right people.
Bridgitte and I also touch on the three foundational elements of thriving as a business owner: health, worth, and community. She shares how important it is to surround yourself with people who push you to find lessons in the challenges and really embody supportive beliefs.
