In this heart-filled episode of The Motion of Gratitude podcast, Shannon Missimer sits down with Tom, co-founder of Good Life Organic Kitchen, for an in-person conversation packed with inspiration, resilience, and intentional living.

Tom and his wife, Abby, have walked an incredible journey—one that began with Abby’s diagnosis of Hashimoto’s after their first pregnancy and their decision to reverse it through mindful eating and locally sourced, intentional foods. Their personal health journey sparked a mission to bring nourishing, organic meals to their community, leading them to open the first Good Life Organic Kitchen franchise—right at the start of the COVID pandemic.

In this episode, Tom shares:
🌿 How Abby reversed her autoimmune disorder through food and lifestyle changes
🌿 Their bold decision to open a health-focused café during a global pandemic
🌿 The power of persistence through hurdles like supply chain issues, financial struggles, and inflation
🌿 Why they are deeply committed to organic, locally sourced ingredients—despite the challenges
🌿 How their family business, rooted in gratitude and resilience, has become a beacon for health-conscious families
🌿 The value of educating the community about real, wholesome food

Plus, Tom reflects on the lessons he would share with his past self—reminding us all that true success requires conviction, faith, and a willingness to face uncertainty with gratitude.
