This background triggered Leighton to found SFuels in 2017.  Leighton, his wife Nicole, and sons Ryan and Denver live in Raleigh North Carolina. --- Connect with the podcast on Instagram @isnpodcast and on Facebook @insidesportsnutrition This episode is brought to you by All Around Snack Co. which features tasty snacks that are low in added sugars, contain zero dyes, colorings or additives and help control blood sugar for steady energy levels throughout the day.  Use code ISNPODCAST24 to save 15% on your purchase.
