Hi Nicole! Would love to hear your experience on how you choose which company you invest in? Could you share the process on how and which pitch decks you listen to?

Great writing, Nicole! Love learning more about your journey here on Substack and can't wait to get your POV on this crazy new brand we're building!

Just curious who is holding your license (7, 65, etc?) . I was a registered rep 6,63 for almost 20 years, but left the biz in 2008 to have a family. When I left, license expired after a couple of years since I had no firm to hold it. Otherwise, would qualify if not for the license thing. Congrats on Poppi. We love it in our household. Also my family and I saw you once at Parakeet—next time I will say hi!

You don’t need a license to be an Angel investor as long as you meet one of the other requirements !

And thank you! Always love meeting people in real life !

Hi Nicole, How are you? I'm a Canadian living in Toronto who has celiac disease, and you were one of the first people I started following. I love reading all your material, and I truly believe there is an opportunity to bring some of the US GF brands to Canada. It is very frustrating to procure these items - there is one site that has most of them, Naturamarket, but it is super expensive. My sister lives in LA and can go to Ralph's to get some of the items. I'm speaking of brands such as Siete, Simple Mills, Fit Joy, and Jovial. I'm not sure if you have any advice or thoughts. I would appreciate any direction.
