SE8 EP09: Your Super Life: How Kristel Built one of the world's biggest DTC plant-based nutrition brands w/ Kristel de Groot

On today’s episode, Kunle is joined by Kristel de Groot, Co-Founder & CMO of Your Super, a plant-based brand 
 
Kristel and Michael, her partner in life and business, met as young athletes, playing tennis. With their vibrant energy and youth, they were able to get scholarships and travel to play. However, this changed when Michael was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 24. With her knowledge in nutrition and inspired by a movie, Kristel went on to learn more about plants and how they can help our bodies fight off the cancer gene and reduce the risk of having one.
 
Knowing only a little about eCommerce and the market, Kristel and Michael joined a summit in Ireland and were able to get the attention of an investor who would usually invest in tech brands but became interested in their products. With an upcoming book, Kristel aims to share how we can change our lives by eating superfoods and integrating them into our lifestyles.
 
It’s an inspiring episode as you’d hear Kunle and Kristel talk more about their journey starting Your Super, product sourcing, Kristel’s new and upcoming book, supporting women, and getting into D2C and retail.
