#416: Wrongfully Imprisoned to Oprah's Magazine with David Israel
Description
The year is not over just yet! We have another inspirational journey with a voice you may have heard earlier this year on A Mental Health Break! David Israel is back and touches on:
- How his get connected to Oprah, and why
- Recognizing a need in the market and attacking
- Providing jobs to 250+ inmates coming home to change their lives
David Israel turned an idea sparked during his time in prison into a thriving business. Now the Founder and Co-CEO of GOOD PLANeT Foods, David is on a mission to bring the joy of cheese to consumers with plant-based options that are better for you and the planet.
An experienced entrepreneur, David previously founded the internationally successful Pop! Gourmet Foods and co-founded AvoLov/BranchOut. Challenged to eat more plant-based foods, he found cheese the hardest to replace. After discovering non-dairy cheese-making traditions in Crete, Greece, he developed GOOD PLANeT's Olive Oil Cheese—the first plant-based cheese made with heart-healthy olive oil, offering the taste and melt of traditional cheese.
