171: The Power of Adaptogens with Brian Murphy
See more about Brian and his background:
Brian is the CEO and co-founder of LIVING PRANA, a functional food company transforming unhealthy packaged foods with nutrient-dense superfoods. He is an advocate for reforming a US food system to provide food that creates health, raising the bar on transparency, integrity and sustainability for the businesses that feed America.
A former investment banker and strategic growth leader, he has invested, advised and built businesses for the past 15 years, working side-by-side with many entrepreneurs and driving growth for private and public equity-backed companies. Brian is a Chartered Financial Analyst. Combining this business experience with mindfulness practices, Brian is leading an evolution in a new conscious business paradigm that is accountable to its community, stakeholders and the planet.
In 2016, Brian reached a turning point as significant stressors sent his physical and mental health into crisis – he ended a marriage, lost 65kg and sold his first business. This unlocked his passion to inspire others to prioritize their well-being using food as medicine after saving his own physical and mental health with functional foods. As Brian furthered his spiritual discovery, his path was lit to create businesses that fulfill a greater purpose that aligns with his transformation while healing people and the planet.
In 2020, after starting his spiritual journey, Brian turned the keys to a long successful corporate career to bet on himself as an influencer and align his personal values with his business endeavors. After a lifetime of struggling with his physical health, being involved in the business side of surgery, and watching the health of his beloved friends and family deteriorate, Brian has dedicated his impact to creating businesses that help optimize the physical and mental well-being of all whose lives it touches.

If any of my fellow health professionals are looking for another way to help their clientsI highly recommend IHP. You can also use this information to heal yourself and then go on to heal others, which I think is a beautiful mission. You can definitely sign up if you are not currently working in the health or fitness industry. Many IHPs do not start on this path. They are friends who are passionate about learning more about health and wellness and want to share that information with the ones they love. You can do this as a passion or start a whole new career.
