This week, I had the absolute joy of chatting with Donna Letier, co-founder and CEO of Gardenuity, on the podcast. Let me tell you—this conversation was rich. Donna’s story is inspiring, raw, and full of gems about resilience, leadership, and the healing power of nature.
We talked about everything from her journey as a single mom of two daughters—one of whom is a four-time Special Olympics gold medalist—to her incredible mission with Gardenuity, a company making the benefits of gardening accessible to everyone. Did you know putting your hands in the soil can literally release serotonin? Donna breaks it all down in such a relatable, real way.
And here’s something I loved: Donna’s perspective on “balance.” Spoiler alert—she calls BS on it! Her take on being okay with Oreos on cookie day? Absolute gold.
