Feeding our babies should feel empowering, not overwhelming. Yet so many moms face guilt, confusion, and frustration when it comes to infant formula. In this episode of the Mama Work It podcast, I’m joined by Mia Funt, Co-Founder and President of ByHeart—the first new U.S.-based infant formula manufacturer in more than 15 years. A mom of three herself, Mia’s personal feeding journey (including breastfeeding challenges, emergency surgery, and raising two kids with severe food allergies) inspired her to create a formula that parents could trust and feel proud to use. Together with her brother, Ron Belldegrun, Mia spent five years building ByHeart from the ground up—assembling a team of pediatricians, nutritionists, and clinical experts, acquiring manufacturing facilities, and conducting the largest new-brand infant formula clinical trial in 25 years. Today, ByHeart is available nationwide in nearly 12,000 retail locations including Target, Walmart, Whole Foods, and Kroger. In this conversation, we cover: Mia’s journey as a working mom of three and co-founder of ByHeart How Mia navigated mom guilt while raising children and building a company What it really looks like to dream big as a mom balancing school drop-offs, late-night work emails, and family life How ByHeart is setting a new standard in infant nutrition with organic, grass-fed whole milk and a patented protein blend closest to breast milk If you’ve ever struggled with feeding guilt, wanted clarity about formula, or just need encouragement as a mom pursuing both family and big dreams, this episode will give you both inspiration and practical insight. 👉 Special Offer for Mama Work It listeners: Get 30% off your first subscription order with code BYHEARTMAMA at ByHeart.com.
