Ep. 6 | From Corporate Cubicle to Naturopathic Entrepreneur with Sara Love

In this conversation, Sara Love shares her journey from a corporate pharmacy career to becoming a naturopathic doctor and tea entrepreneur.

Sara dives deep into the connection between stress, gut health, and the healing power of plants, explaining why she developed her own loose-leaf tea blends for her patients. She also opens up about balancing two businesses, the mental discipline of ultra marathon running, and why giving yourself permission to rest is one of the bravest things you can do.

➺ Leaving a suffocating environment is the first step toward becoming who you truly are.

➺ Entrepreneurship is an identity, not just a career path.

➺ Stress and gut health are deeply connected, and so is the solution.

➺ Simple rituals like herbal tea can be powerful tools for healing and restoration.

➺ Structuring your time by business and protecting personal hours prevents burnout.

➺ Ultra-marathon running is 90% a mental game, and that same mindset builds great entrepreneurs.

➺ Rest is not a reward; it is part of the training.
