HOW WE GOT STARTED

It started with a girl and her morning coffee - a love story.

Coffee has been a major part of my life for as long as I can remember.

By the time I hit my 30s, my love affair with coffee had been going on for decades – and while I really loved my morning ritual – I was starting to think that it didn’t love me back.  It wasn’t putting 100% into our relationship – you know what I’m sayin? I invested in all the things (pour-over, French press, espresso machines – I had them all), but coffee only gave me a good 1-2 hours of energy at this point. Maybe coffee just wasn’t that in to me.

Albert Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. I was about to break up with coffee.

At this point in life, I was starting to really clean up my diet. Though I had been a vegetarian since I was twelve (well over half my life), I wanted to eat food that made me feel great, so we (Me + Matthew (Co-Founder & Husband) = We) cut out a lot of the junk food and planted a garden. As soon as the first tomato greeted me, I was hooked on learning more about food benefits and how to optimize all things food. This early foray into bio-hacking and life hacking led me to read about COFFEE OPTIMIZATION.

I read that adding a bit of fat & MCTs to my coffee could help slow down the absorption of the caffeine and provide a more stable and prolonged source of energy (no energy spikes) – and moreover – it was good brain fuel too. Could this be true? Could this magic trick help the energy and mood boosting goodness of my coffee last longer? This set me on a mission to find the best way to optimize my daily coffee ritual and from that our Superfood Vegan Creamers were born, the first of our products!
