Episode 28 - Reconnected with Jordan Buckner
In this episode of the Reconnected Podcast, Luke Abbott sits down with serial entrepreneur Jordan Buckner to unpack the wild, inspiring ride from his early ventures like Chopbox and Tea Squares to building Foodbevy—a platform helping food & beverage founders navigate the chaos of CPG.
Jordan gets real about what worked, what flopped, and the panic attack that forced him to hit pause and rethink everything. From scrappy kitchen startups to pitching major retailers with DIY packaging, this conversation dives into the hidden struggles behind “success,” the power of knowing when to pivot, and how Jordan turned failure into fuel for something bigger.
