Today’s guest is Gail Levy, founder of HFactor hydrogen water. Gail is a self-described “serial entrepreneur”, but of all the companies she’s founded, this one is the most personal. Gail watched as her friend went through painful chemotherapy treatments. Nothing was helping her recover from the radiation, and they tried just about everything available. Tragically, Gail’s friend lost her battle with cancer, but Gail’s fight was just beginning. She was fixated on finding something that would help other cancer patients through their treatment, and it wasn’t long before she stumbled upon the benefits of adding extra hydrogen to water. But the science was still in its infancy and to get where HFactor is today required a lot of grit in navigating uncharted waters.
Listen in as we cover everything from how Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr inadvertently helped to advertise HFactor, how she manufactured early samples using a cement mixer and some beer kegs, and Gail reveals to us her startup superpower.
