Welcome to the My Buddy Green podcast. I'm Jason Walkib, founder and co-ceeo of My Buddy Green and your host.

If you're a listener of this show, you know how critical maintaining lean muscle mass is as you age and that's why I am so

excited that we've launched our grass-fed way protein isolate plus in vanilla and chocolate. It is clean and pure grass-fed

protein with no fillers and it's got 25 grams of bioavailable complete protein

including lusine, the critical amino acid, which you need to maintain

and build lean muscle mass.

I take our protein powder twice a day every day. I love it and I know you will too.

So go to shop.mymbody green.com backslash way 20 to get 20% off your first order of grass-fed way protein isolate

plus. John Macie is the co-founder and former CEO of Whole Foods Market, the

grocery retailer that has forever changed health food shopping as we know it.

In his new must read book, The Whole Story,

Adventures in Love Life and Capitalism,

John dives deeper into the journey behind building the pioneering brand from the ground up.

I've been friends with John for over seven years now and I can tell you firsthand that the success

of Whole Foods comes not just from some luck and business finesse, but from John's passion and

dedication to creating a brand and community united by a common goal to get healthy, organic food on everyone's table.

In today's show, John shares his best tips for growing a business, his wins and losses

as CEO, how to balance success and authenticity in your work,
