Oneupweb Hosts the Brains Behind Food for Thought
Timothy Young shares his story with Oneupweb’s Lisa Wehr and Tim Kauffold in the latest episode of their monthly podcast series, “Be Relentless: Business Success Against the Odds”.
(TRAVERSE CITY, MI) – A dedicated environmentalist, acclaimed self-made chef and award-winning entrepreneur; Timothy Young knows what it means to Be Relentless™. And the passion that he shows for sustainable food systems in Oneupweb’s latest podcast is definitely “food for thought”.
“Timothy is an absolute adventurer. He’s worldly, cultured and passionate about his mission-driven work,” says Oneupweb CEO and Founder Lisa Wehr. “It’s that passion and dedication that have helped him accomplish all that he has, and made him the perfect guest for our podcast series.”
Oneupweb’s monthly podcast series, “Be Relentless: Business Success Against the Odds” illustrates the challenges and sacrifices of Michigan’s elite entrepreneurs, business owners and professionals.
In the latest episode, Young explains his enthusiasm of creating and raising awareness around just and sustainable food systems. He shares his third world travel experiences that ignited his passion for fair trade production, and eventually inspired his ethical food company, Food for Thought.
“It’s astounding that Timothy started his organic and fair trade company before people were aware of moral issues concerning food,” says Wehr. “It’s tough enough to be an entrepreneur, and he was challenged to market a concept before people had caught on to the craze. It’s obvious that Michigan businesses can learn what it takes to be relentless from his story.”
You can listen and subscribe to the podcast series on iTunes. And be sure to stay tuned for next month’s episode featuring another relentless Michigan business professional.
