What are these?!

06/26/2025

Earlier this week we attended the Walmart Open Call & now we’re taking the next steps so we can (hopefully!) be ready to attend the big event in October. That means getting READY TO SCALE - something I’ve been talking/worrying about nonstop lately! 😵‍💫

I honestly can’t put into words how much I love and appreciate the Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurs team. If you’re an entrepreneur and have never been - GO! I teared up during their CEO’s morning pep talk because Jay Bailey is THAT GUY. We joked that small business owners don’t often get that kind of energy - we’re usually just trying to keep our heads above water. I thank God for people like the ones on the RICE team, who lift others up and truly change lives through their programs.

Fun fact: RICE even offers a Retail Readiness Program to help CPG founders prepare for retail. I don’t know of another center doing that in Georgia! 👏👏👏

Stefan L. Miller, MBA and Terri-Nichelle Bradley - the joy you both bring is absolutely contagious! Thank you for sharing it with all of us.

The Walmart team could not have been more gracious. We had some powerful conversations with Susan Thomas about what scaling as a Walmart vendor really looks like. While I’ve been down the retail road years ago, Walmart has completely shifted how they support small businesses by focusing on smart, regional growth, not an overwhelming national rollout. That can make all the difference.

Mark Espinoza you are the perfect ambassador for these road events. Your kindness and guidance - especially with that application form - did not go unnoticed. Thank you!

And the biggest win of the day? Every single product in the room was Made in the USA. 🇺🇸 I know firsthand what it takes, and I deeply respect the hustle behind every founder who showed up.

Now, it’s time to get back to fundraising so we can grow into what’s next. Here we GROW! Walmart

Sponsoring this incredible young man has been the highlight of our year so far! You don’t know Trevor LaTourrette full comeback story just yet, but it’s absolutely jaw-dropping 🤯.

Imagine going from being so sick you’re hospitalized ‼️with your eyes sewn shut ‼️ to now racing at Daytona!!!

He’s racing RIGHT NOW, 🏁 #909 if you want to tune in!

Tracy LaTourrette - we were on TikTok live yesterday during his pre-race and you should’ve seen all the people tuning in and cheering him on! They were so invested in your sweet young man!

Sometimes I’m reminded how cruel people can be, to the most innocent souls. I’ll never understand it, but I’ll continue to counteract it with love.

A few months ago, we did an Opu Probiotics giveaway on TikTok, and the winner was Shannon Pinkerton. We pulled her name from hundreds on live. Little did I know, Shannon was already a loyal customer, relying on our products to support her family’s digestion and health.

But the story goes deeper. When Shannon was a child, her parents took in MaryBeth, an 18-year-old with Down syndrome. Shannon later took over guardianship - and Marybeth is now in her 60s.

Shannon carried that same compassion forward, adopting six incredible young men with disabilities. They are one of the most beautiful families I’ve ever known, I can’t get enough of their TikToks.

Tonight, I was watching a video of Cam dancing and singing, so full of joy.

But then I made the mistake of reading the comments. The hateful, vile things people wrote about that sweet young man broke my heart. Shannon, true to her Mama Bear spirit, responded with grace and composure, even in the face of cruelty. (I don’t think I could respond so calmly, but then again she deals with a daily 😞)

Social media, and the world in general, can be harsh. It’s a stark reminder of how people with disabilities are too often treated.

Please, be kind.
And if you have an unkind thought, try to keep it to yourself.

We LOVE you 💚💚💚

My Honduran sister from another mister is BACK - and our world is better for it! Everyone deserves a Claudia in their life. 💚

Claudia and I are chosen sisters. She’s a small but mighty force on our team, and someone who’s overcome more than most will ever know.

After years of hardship, she’s finally getting to exhale - and watching her breathe a little easier is one of my greatest joys.

She is a huge part of my why. I carry a deep burden to succeed - not just for me, but so I can continue to pay her, support her, and remind her (and others like her) that their resilience matters. That they are seen. That they are worth building for.

We often say to each other, “We’re doing it - one box 📦 at a time.”
Not perfectly. Not without struggle.
But with heart, with grit, and with hope for what’s ahead.

Here’s to many more years, together. God willing.

P.S. Yes, I’m actually wearing color - and feeling slightly more put together than usual. I’ve been battling some health challenges, likely connected to stress 😫, I’ve been trying to be intentional about how I show up…even if it’s just swapping out our usual Opu-black “uniform” for something bright. It’s wild how a pop of color and a little effort can shift your mindset. One small way I’m choosing joy and better mental health, from the outside in.

They’re replacing the probiotics they’ve been selling for years - with ours. 🤯

This order is for a medical facility that will go through over 400 boxes per month - and that number is set to double when they open yet another location in August!

We’re honored to partner with clinics that want better gut health options for their patients - and we’re just getting started.

If you’re a pediatrician, gastroenterologist, or weight loss clinic helping patients struggling with constipation (especially from medication), we’d love to talk. Let’s help them skip the laxatives and support long-term gut health instead!

DM us or visit GetOpu.com to learn more!

P.S. I’m holding up our new counter sign - showing how easy it is to take Opu (just pour it on your tongue! 👅) included in every wholesale order to help doctors quickly explain it to patients. Our chocolates are self explanatory 💚

If you look closely, you’ll see it - real joy on my face for the first time in a while.

200 of 400 total boxes 📦.
Packed by me and my Dad. 💚
Headed straight to a pediatric clinic that believes in what we’re doing. 🧑‍⚕️

The owner of a multi-location pediatric practice tried Opu Probiotics herself.
Then let some of her patients (many of whom are medically complex or have disabilities) try it too.
The results? LIFE-CHANGING - for patients, owner and staff.

This is more than a sale.
It’s (another) full-circle moment for me - because THIS is where my heart has always been.

Supporting kids. Supporting families. Supporting better health from the gut up.

And we’re just getting started.
We’re now hearing from weight loss clinics, medical professionals, and wellness leaders across the country - not because we’re chasing them down, but because their patients are bringing our products in. (Wait until you read the review I received today! 🤯)

That’s the kind of ripple effect we dreamed of. 🥺

If you know of a clinic, pediatric office, wellness/weightloss center, or facility that supports patients who might benefit from better gut health (read: all of them!) - we’d love an introduction. Let’s explore how Opu can help their people feel better, naturally. Just imagine 💭 how many we will help when we launch on QVC 💚💚💚

From our little warehouse with big heart - thank you for helping us grow!

P.S. If you’d like to see what the fuss is all about, check us out at www.GetOpu.com! Also, how awesome is my Dad’s “real smile” 😆.

Join me for a behind-the-scenes look at my entrepreneurial rollercoaster - from pitching on the very first episode of Shark Tank, to building (and selling) my first product, to a life-changing cancer diagnosis that sparked a whole new mission.

I’ll share what really happened after the Shark Tank deal - the hard lessons, costly mistakes, and how cancer shifted my priorities and led me to co-found Opu Probiotics with my Dad after losing my Mom.

We’ll dive into how this new venture differs in purpose, product, and margins - and what it’s like launching a second brand in today’s market. I’ll also share a peek at our upcoming QVC debut! If you're an entrepreneur, inventor, or just love a good comeback story, don’t miss it.

This weekend Trevor LaTourrette will be racing F4 in New Orleans, and he'll be doing it with Opu Probiotics on his suit, hat and car! 🤯

Trevor is the son of two U.S. Veterans who happen to be wonderful human beings. His Mom, Tracy LaTourrette, is now a dear friend and someone who means more to me than she likely knows.

If you are own a business and might be interested in sponsoring this exceptional young man, let me know!

Yesterday, we had the joy of celebrating William’s 28th birthday! 🎉Please join us in wishing him a happy birthday!

William became an invaluable part of our team through Lionheart WORKS. His dedication and hard work inspire us every day, and we’re so grateful to have him.

Despite the challenges he faces with cerebral palsy, William and his family refuse to let it define or limit him, and we’re so glad because it means we get to work alongside him! 💪

If you’re in the Alpharetta, Georgia area and want to learn more about Lionheart WORKS, let me know! We’ve been proud community partners for nearly three years.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I was really skeptical but decided to give it a try. For almost 6 months my stomach was constantly upset no
matter what I ate. / was diagnosed with diverticulosis
years ago and am very careful about what I eat. This
product has been a game changer!”
