Founder/CEO of MUSH, Ashley Thompson: What Life Can Look Like When You Feel a Deep Purpose Behind What You Do

In this episode of Rooted, I speak with Ashley Thompson, the Co-Founder and CEO of MUSH, a ready to eat overnight oats, made with only simple, healthy ingredients.  Ashley is an incredible human being and someone that I now consider a mentor. She is an extremely caring, thoughtful and deep person, which is what contributed to our great conversation. We discussed so many amazing topics like: Her upbringing, the impact her dad had on her, and the genesis of MUSH Why MUSH made sense to be the company that she started, specifically  How to keep your eyes open for business ideas and trusting your gut Her vision for MUSH, the impact its had on so many people, like cancer patients + why Ashley will never change the clean ingredient label How her life is different now building her company vs working at Goldman Sachs, in terms of having a purpose Why we think that so many health and wellness companies are leveraging communities and tying this concept to the Blue Zones + so much more! MUSH can be found in major retailers like Whole Foods, Target, Sprouts, and many more! I’ve been a huge fan of the company for years and personally love the chocolate and vanilla flavors. I hope everyone enjoys!
