Back to having a space again.


After nearly three years of being remote, I realized how much I’ve missed being around people. I love community, I love connection, and I love having a place to go that isn’t my house.

Since 2023, I’ve been fully remote, and heading into 2026, it felt like the right time to get back into a space. Huge thanks to Lane for reaching out about Anata Studios. hUnTeR STUTZ, and I moved in this week, and I couldn’t be more excited.

It’s the perfect setup with great people, creative energy, and a space to lock in and build. 

+ comes with a dope gym.

PS: With the new office comes a need for new bevies and snacks. If you’ve got any CPG favorites I should stock the shelves with, drop your recs below. 

I’ll be ordering this week. 👀

CPG founders really go from:

“We just launched!”

to

“Our freight forwarder ghosted us, Shopify broke, and our co-packer’s on vacation.”

Faster than you can say better-for-you beverage.

I’ve tried a lot of supplements, but this one ACTUALLY works. 


The focus, clarity, and energy have been next level over the last few weeks when I started taking it.

Congrats to the team at Graymatter Labs on their $1.3M seed round led by Venrex and Apex Group Ltd. 

Founded by Jim Phillips and Novisa M. Petrusich, Graymatter is on a mission to make brain health a daily ritual.

And I’m here for it.

#cpg #wellness

Big thank you to The Cumin Club for not just the meals but the mission.


They started with a simple idea: bringing authentic, home-style Indian food to anyone, anywhere, in just minutes. 

No preservatives. No shortcuts. Just real ingredients and regional recipes made by chefs across India.

It’s one of those brands that blends culture, convenience, and craftsmanship perfectly, and as someone who’s always on the go, I’m seriously impressed.

Appreciate what you’re building, Ragoth Bala & Harish Visweswaran, and how you’re doing it.

#cpg #dtc #brandstory

The beverage world is on fire right now.


Lucky Energy just raised $25M, TRIP pulled in $40M at a $300M valuation, Recess secured $30M, Cove Soda raised $15M, and even Monster Energy is launching a female-focused energy drink called FLRT.

So what’s going on here?

The entire beverage category is evolving. People don’t just want caffeine anymore, they want function.

Energy. Mood. Focus. Gut health.

It’s all blending into a new wave of functional wellness drinks that feel more like lifestyle brands than beverages.

And people are paying for it. Premium, clean, zero sugar, better for you.

Brands like Alani Nutrition and CELSIUS along with poppi (acquired by PepsiCo for nearly $2 billion) & OLIPOP PBC already proved the playbook. 

Build a strong identity, connect with your audience, and scale into retail.

Investors are flooding in because drinks move fast. You can go from DTC to Target in a year if the brand hits right.

If you’re seeing new bev brands pop up every week, it’s not your imagination. This category is booming.

And personally, as a bevy guy, I love to see it.
