Their flagship product, Granola Butter, is the world's first spreadable granola. The idea for Granola Butter came out of Ali's eating disorder recovery, as she battled with multiple eating disorders for over a decade. Oat Haus is sold in over 1,000 stores across the country such as Whole Foods, Harris Teeter and The Fresh Market, as well as online. Ali lives in Philadelphia with her partner Eric and their dog, Squishy.   In this episode we discuss: Ali's journey to starting Oat Haus, including her eating disorder recovery journey. Why Ali couldn't be running her company if she still had an eating disorder. How Oat Haus came to be and the best and worst parts of running a food product business. How Ali practices wellness without obsession. Where we can all purchase Oat Haus granola butter!   Announcements: Food & Body Peace Playbook is open for enrollment for our April cohort!
