Today we're known as successful serial entrepreneurs, but it wasn't always that way. Jill started her career doing interior architecture for skyscrapers, and Gary was an international banker, and we were both unfulfilled.
We knew there must be a better way. And then, we did something that some thought crazy: we left our professional career paths and started a premium whole-leaf tea company when the only tea most Americans knew was Lipton. In 1995 Mighty Leaf Tea was born, and we grew it for nearly 20 years before its sale. It was an extraordinary experience, and when it was done, we knew we still had unfinished business.
What we hadn’t yet discovered is that the foundation of Good Pharma was already forming...
Over the past thirty years, we’ve traveled the globe from Europe, Africa, and India, to China and back to seek, honor, and engage with the wisdom ancient cultures and practices offer. As partners in life and business, we’ve always believed in the power of collaboration, Good Pharma being the embodiment of that.
