Episode 196: Building a Health-Conscious Brand Behind NOOMA with Jarred Smith

In this week's interview episode of the M3 podcast, I sit down to interview Jarred Smith, the co-founder of NOOMA, an organic line of plant-based electrolyte drinks. Jarred shares the story behind NOOMA's inception, which stemmed from his and his brother Brandon's personal experiences as college hockey players dealing with the side effects of traditional sports drinks. We discuss the core principles that set NOOMA apart in the competitive beverage market, the various products they offer, and Jared's insights on the future of functional drinks. Our conversation also touches on Jared's self-care practices, the importance of staying socially engaged, and his perspective on dealing with competition and challenges in the business world.HIGHLIGHTS00:59 Jarred's Background and NOOMA's Origin03:36 PMA's Unique Selling Points05:37 Product Line Overview06:49 Future of Functional Drinks12:49 Challenges and Overcoming Obstacles15:21 Self-Care and Daily Practices18:54 Leadership and Integrity22:32 Final Thoughts and Ways to ConnectConnect with Jarred Smith + NOOMAInstagram: @noomabro_j @drinknooma Website: www.drinknooma.comConnect with Breanna Danielle:Instagram: @iambreannadanielle @TheM3MethodWebsite: www.breannadanielle.coOther Resources: linktr.ee/BreannaDanielle
