I am super excited to share about today’s guest Maura Mitchell!

Maura is the co-founder of Empowered Bakery. She and her husband founded the company with the mission to empower everyone to reduce their stress and empower victims of domestic violence. Empowered is a California B Corporation that gives 5% of net profits to the National Domestic Violence Hotline. They provide nationwide services and support to victims of domestic violence. Empowered’s first product is Empowered Bites. They are delicious, made from a handful of wholesome real ingredients, and contain Ashwagandha, a super herb that helps our bodies better manage stress.
