Who is Adam Bremen? "Hey, I’m Adam, the founder of CAN DO and the maker of Keto Krisp. I lost 65lbs adopting the Keto Diet! I was born with Cerebral Palsy and have used an electric wheelchair for mobility my entire life. From an early age, my parents instilled in me that life is about what I CAN DO, not what I can’t do. At 42, I found myself overweight and uncomfortable, so I decided it was time to make a change." "With the help of a close friend, I transitioned to a keto-based diet and began a daily adapted exercise routine. During my weight loss journey, I couldn’t find an on-the-go snack with premium clean ingredients that actually tasted good. As a lifelong foodie, I strongly believe you shouldn’t have to sacrifice taste when making healthy decisions. So I created Keto Krisp, a snack bar that combines unrivaled taste with premium nutritional ingredients to meet the specific needs of NOT ONLY the keto lifestyle, but also anyone looking for a delicious well-balanced, protein fortified bar." Today's conversation includes: What is your why? What is your purpose? Why the Keto diet? Diet vs Lifestyle? Who inspires me?

Today we are talking about one of our favorite morning drinks…COFFEE! Danny Walsh: Danny Walsh is an outdoors person, recreational athlete, and entrepreneur out of Boulder, CO. When he was diagnosed with a stress-related auto-immune disease in his last year of college, he turned down the offer for a desk job and instead took to building trails so that he could move his body all days. During this time, he learned to forage and brew chaga tea. He couldn’t stop thinking about how good chaga, a medicinal mushroom, made him feel - soothed, relaxed, calm. Focusing on continually managing his stress, he started incorporating these Adaptagenic mushrooms into his morning routine for daily stress and immune support, and eventually putting them in his coffee. When he looked to see what was out there for mushroom coffee, there wasn’t a single product that tasted like coffee without compromise. Soon after, Peak State was born to help people upgrade their morning routine with high quality coff...
