Figuring It Out

In this solo episode, I’m sharing my decade long experience working to heal my relationship with myself and specifically my body image. I share how I knew it was time to make a change, what I was feeling and doing during that time period, the negative rhetoric in our society around “the smaller the better” when it comes to women’s bodies, and “less is more” when it comes to food, the small steps I took that led to bigger change, what I learned, and how I feel today.  Holiday gift guides  My Gift Guide: https://shopmy.us/haileydmiller/gift-guides   ...

David Jacobowitz is a marketer turned chocolatier…well actually he impressively still does both. He is the founder and sole employee of Nebula snacks. As a self-proclaimed super snacker he found himself taking his sweet tooth to the next level, and maybe a bit too far during COVID….experiencing weight gain, poor sleep and inflammation due to excess sugar intake. It was through this that he had the idea to create Nebula a chocolate free of sugar, sugar alcohols and artificial sweeteners.  It took him three years of experimenting to develop his treat for today’s conscious super snacker - chocolate that delivers the flavor without the sugar. 

Launched at the end of 2021, Nebula Snacks started with two zero sugar chocolate bars, a dark and an oat milk chocolate.

While many enjoyed the chocolates, there was a plethora of feedback from the crew requesting smaller sizes and exciting flavors.

Back to the drawing board, it took nearly a full additional year to create the new Nebula Zero Sugar Added Chocolate Bites!

 

He invites us all to join the sweet rebellion and fight for a healthier snacking future. 

 

During our conversation we discuss: 

  • Falling into entrepreneurship, his journey into the hustle life, and transitioning from marketing to launching his own chocolate brand 

  • How his late night COVID chocolate binges, a passion for snacking and a spark of an idea and turning it into a business

  • How he balances his time having a full-time job and being the only employee of Nebula snacks 

  • Why he wanted to create a low sugar chocolate that’s free from artificial ingredients, which ingredients he uses and the trial and error creating the recipe - how he created the mint flavor is fascinating

  • Gathering customer feedback to define the products and brand 

  • The obstacles he faced in starting a business, embracing a learning mindset to navigate the food industry, and learning how to handle a “no” 

  • The importance of surrounding yourself with likeminded people and how he leans on fellow entrepreneurs for learning opportunities especially around brand building 

  • His future aspirations for Nebula snacks
