How To Create Sustainable Solutions w. Sarah Shadonix, Founder & CEO Scout & Cellar
Do you know there are over 300 chemicals and additives in almost all mass-produced wine? As a mama, I love to unwind in the evenings with the hubby over a glass of wine. When we started hosting Mother Honestly Events, a good friend introduced me to Scout & Cellar and I just had to interview Sarah! Sarah is an attorney-turned-sommelier who has dedicated her life to taking the headaches out of great wine. It’s arguably the most prevalent drawback to drinking wine at all. Sarah is all-too familiar with this feeling.
Ironically, it started while she was studying to become a sommelier. What started as a glass of wine to accompany long nights of cramming would eventually materialize into an unbearable headache the next day. Sarah knew something was off. A single glass shouldn’t lead to pain of this magnitude. So she began doing some research of her own. She spoke with renowned naturopathic physicians, and she consulted with vintners. Eventually, she discovered the source of these headaches: the up-to 300 chemical additives imbued in almost all mass-produced wine. Yeah. 300. Crazy, right?
This is where the fun began. Once Sarah stumbled upon the truth about mass-produced wine, she promised to discover and deliver a cleaner, healthier, better option. “Chemicals belong in a swimming pool,” she’d say. “Wine should be as natural as possible.”Dive into today’s podcast and learn more about mom-ing and wine, how to create and start anything from scratch, and be sure to pick up a Scout and Cellar wine from a consultant close to you.
