EP2 - Jaime Foster, The Building of Georgia Grinders, Her Moms Battle with ALS, and Her Daughters Inspiring Healing From A Serious Illness

Life, Leadership and Perseverance w/ Nicole Semeraro

Nicole Semeraro joins her friend, Jaime Foster, founder and CEO of Georgia Grinders, a company specializing in a clean, simple and delicious almond butter recipe, created by Jaime's grandfather as he was motivated back in the day to foster better habits for good health and a longer life. He succeeded, partly due to his "clean eating" recipes, living until the age of 97. Jamie has now proudly distributed her grandfather's almond butter recipe all around the world, running a successful business now of 12 years. But it wasn't a cakewalk.
To get there, Jaime would have to discover the hard and beautiful truth that "chasing money," even if successful, isn't a road to health or happiness. At the onset of her business start-up, her mother was diagnosed with ALS, a taxing and heavy journey that ended in her mom's passing. Lastly, Jaime and her husband walked alongside their daughter as she struggled through a battle with anorexia. During Nicole's time with her friend Jaime, there are lessons galore. From parenting to persevering through trials and numerous business start-up lessons and advice.

A Little History: Georgia Grinders was founded in 2012, in honor of our Founder's (Jaime Foster) grandfather and his recipe for almond butter from the 1970's. Pre-disposed to cardiovascular disease, Jaime's grandfather was determined to beat the odds of his genetics and focused on the foundation of functional medicine & nutrition, extending his life to the remarkable age of 97.
