Episode description

Parker Olson is an innovative entrepreneur recognized for "disrupting the snack industry" by Food Business News. He founded FORIJ, a functional food company introducing cognition-boosting and vitamin-D rich mushroom extracts to everyday snacks. The inception of FORIJ is a reflection of Parker's curiosity and commitment to wellness, originating from an 18-month personal nutrition regimen experiment. Merging his knowledge of neuroscience with his acumen for Finance and Entrepreneurship, Parker stands at the fascinating crossroads of health, business, and self-improvement.
 
Parker's life is as adventurous as it is unconventional. His fitness journey took him from being a couch potato to an Ironman competitor in less than a year, exhibiting his relentless determination. He's an avid rock climber, mountaineer, and free diver, always pushing his boundaries. His adventures extend beyond physical fitness, leading to a stint of living on a sailboat. Even a wrongful arrest for Grand Theft Vessel, leading to a night spent in jail, was met with his characteristic positivity, resilience, and a pinch of humor. 

Additionally, as a certified psilocybin peer supporter, Parker advocates for mental health and well-being through safe and informed use of psychedelics. His story underscores the principle that lasting health and success truly begin within, making him a truly unique guest for the Begin Within Fitness community.
