EPISODE 7: We Live Launched…Here’s What Happened!

What happens when sports nutrition professionals finally find the community they’ve been looking for? In this episode, Umo and Bri recap the live launch of the Hot Tea with Umo and Bri Community at the ASPDA Conference in New Orleans. From their pickleball social at NOLA Pickleplex to honest conversations with dietitians, fitness pros, chefs, PTs, and entrepreneurs, they share why this moment felt so needed. They talk about doing things scared, building something before it feels perfect, and why collaboration matters more than competition. Umo and Bri also share where sports nutrition is headed, why more professionals are creating their own paths, and how their new community will support business owners through coaching, resources, office hours, and connection.Umo's Instagram: @sassy.sports.dietitianBri's Instagram: @theathletitianJoin our communiTEA: hotteawithumoandbri.com/communitea-signupIf you got something from today's Hot Tea, make sure you subscribe, leave a 5-star review, and spill the tea with someone else!Episode highlights:(1:29) ASPDA Conference and community launch recap(3:27) Pickleball social at NOLA Pickleplex(5:07) Why entrepreneurship needs community(7:07) Common questions from new business owners(11:15) Self-doubt and “stinking thinking”(13:11) Doing it scared and launching messy(15:15) The future of sports nutrition(18:31) Collaboration over competition(20:43) What’s inside the Hot Tea community(25:27) Final thoughts and how to join
