In the first part of this episode Tim Sharif, founder and CEO of 310 Nutrition, talks about his early days working as an entrepreneur in Las Vegas. He recalls suffering a big blow following the stock market crash of 2008. Looking for a fresh start, he moved to Manhattan Beach, California. He earned a living selling and marketing a protein shake designed for weight loss. To his surprise, health-conscious Californians wanted nothing to do with this product. Full of filler ingredients and sugar, Tim learned that the product he’d been peddling wasn’t exactly healthy. Fueled by a passion for true health and quality of life, he immersed himself into the “clean eating” lifestyle. It wasn’t long before he got the brilliant idea to create his own plant-based protein shake. Here is his story.
