Mari & Greg on IVF, Imposter Syndrome & Building a Brand Together

Ep. 185: It’s a big moment for Bloom, so Greg and I are sharing the behind-the-scenes story of Bloom Pop—our brand-new soda! From unveiling it at Expo West to the inspiration behind our favorite flavor (hi, Shirley Temple!), we’re breaking down what this moment means to us as partners in business and life. We also answer your Qs about burnout, imposter syndrome, and how I’m navigating IVF while slowing down professionally. This one’s part business update, part life chat, and part real talk about shifting priorities and staying grounded through change. If you’ve ever chased a big dream while juggling real life—this one’s for you. Leave Me a Message - click here! For Mari’s Instagram click here!
