“You can’t assume that you’ve got all the time in the world to make the impact you want. You’ve got to make it happen now.” A pioneer of the organic food movement, John Foraker is widely respected for his leadership of Annie’s, where he led their $820 million acquisition. Yet, once you sit down with him, you quickly learn that more than an industry leader, John is a devoted father striving to create a world where all children have the nutrition they need to thrive; A mission he continues to advance as Co-founder and CEO of Once Upon a Farm. We explore John’s perspective that purpose is an invitation to do more and that even when our contributions feel small, change happens through sustained action. Our responsibility is to begin and keep trying.John’s goal is to be better every day. He shares his favorite philosophy that the truth will set you free, the epiphany that led him to stop worrying, and how he grows from failure. This equanimity is driven by a desire to be present and live his values. We hear how he follows his heart making decisions, maintains a sense of urgency around his priorities, and the lessons he’s learned from fatherhood.
