This week on The 20 Something Playbook, we sit down with Sydney Karmes-Wainer an inspiring 20-something CEO and founder of the healthy snack brand French Squirrel.

Sydney opens up about her journey from disordered eating to launching a mission-driven company that's now stocked at stores like Erewhon, The Fresh Market and more.

We talk about entrepreneurship, personal growth, wellness, and what it really takes to turn a painful chapter into a purpose-filled business. Learn how she overcame obstacles, stayed true to her vision, and created a business that makes a difference in people's lives. Sydney's story is a testament to the power of following your passion and pursuing your dreams, no matter how young you are!

Topics we cover:

- Healing your relationship with food in your 20s

- Building a business from scratch (without

burning out)

- Entrepreneurship lessons no one talks about

- Why your struggles can become your

superpower
