0:00.0	Namaste! It's Sahara Rose and welcome back to the highest self-podcast. A place where
0:17.1	we discussed what makes you your soul's highest involvement. This is an amazing conversation
0:22.7	that you are about to be a part of where I went to Lisa Billew's house and spoke with
0:27.8	her all about her journey, which was so beyond inspiring. If you're not familiar with Lisa Billew,
0:34.0	she went from housewife to co-founder of a billion dollar company, which is Quest Nutrition. I'm sure
0:40.5	you've seen Quest bars, Quest protein shakes, Quest everything. They're in pretty much every gas station,
0:48.3	grocery store anywhere you can go. And the amazing thing is she started making these bars in her
0:54.6	kitchen. They were actually the protein bars that she used to give her husband when she was going
0:58.8	to work. And little by little it became a business that they started shipping out of her home kitchen,
1:06.2	which became a billion dollar company. And the interesting thing is she had no intention of this.
1:11.5	In fact, she was really happy with being a housewife. But suddenly everything shifted for her.
1:17.4	And now not only is she the co-founder of Quest Nutrition, but she is the co-founder of
1:23.8	Impact Theory and has her own show called Woman of Impact, which she just interviewed me on. You
1:28.6	should check that out on YouTube all about interviewing people, women specifically about what makes them
1:36.1	a superhero. So she is someone who's so full of light, so positive. You're just going to fall in
1:42.9	love with her the way that I have. And I'm so excited to invite her on the highest self podcast.
1:48.2	Without further ado, let's welcome Lisa Billo. And before we get started, check out these brands
1:55.0	that make highest self podcast possible. This episode is brought to you by YuVeta. YuVeta is a
2:02.5	modernized Ayurvedic supplement company that takes certain issues that we have such as mood,
2:09.1	joints, immunity, digestion, and creates these custom little packets exactly for us infusing
2:15.4	ancient Ayurvedic herbs with modern vitamins and minerals. I take the mood formula daily. It is
2:21.2	great if you work a stressful job, had a adrenal fatigue, ever suffer from anxiety or even depression.
