50. Bold Vision & Humility in CPG Leadership With Sheryl O'Loughlin, REBBL and Clif Bar

50. If you're chasing growth without purpose—or purpose without profit—you're building on sand. Sustainable CPG leadership requires both bold vision and humility.  In this powerful conversation with Sheryl O'Loughlin (Clif Bar, Plum Organics, REBBL), we unpack what it really takes to build mission-driven brands that scale. From launching Luna Bar and redefining women's energy nutrition, to disrupting baby food with Plum's pouch innovation, to leading REBBL's fight against human trafficking through impact sourcing, Sheryl shares hard-earned lessons about resilience, culture, profitability, and regenerative business. We discuss burnout, ecosystem leadership, climate responsibility, and why profitability is not the enemy of purpose—it's the fuel for it.
