Dr. Catharine Arnston PhD, MBA joins me to share how her sister’s cancer diagnosis led her from a corporate career into more than 15 years of algae nutrition research.

We talk about spirulina, chlorella, plant-based nutrition, cellular energy, and why she believes these tiny tablets deserve far more attention.

Catharine also explains the differences between the two types of algae, how she built EnergyBits, and what it took to step into a role she never expected to have.

This is a lively conversation about curiosity, entrepreneurship, nutrition, and following a calling that refuses to leave you alone.
