As someone who’s had the pleasure of working closely with Sachi Singh, the Founder & CEO of Rootless, I knew this episode would be special.

Sachi isn’t just building a product. She’s building a movement rooted in impact, education, and transformation.

In this conversation, we explore Rootless's origin story, how seaweed became the brand’s "hero ingredient," and the systems thinking that underpins her entire approach to food, wellness, and the planet.

We also discuss how Rootless is bridging the gap between food and medicine, creating a daily ritual that empowers women to feel better. Starting with iodine-rich, whole-food bites that taste as good as they are good for you, Sachi shares her philosophy on customer-led product development, the importance of regenerative sourcing, and why the future of women’s health is personal, accessible, and community-driven.

Here are some highlights from the episode:

* Why seaweed could be the future of food and farming, and why your thyroid needs it

* How Sachi used systems thinking to turn complex climate and nutrition issues into consumer action

* The simple but powerful way Rootless collects feedback from its community

* How she’s balancing DTC-first growth with a scalable, retention-focused model

* Her lessons on gut instinct, building from wholeness, and designing a brand with purpose

Join me, Rose Hamilton, Founder of Compass Rose Ventures, in listening to the episode and learning what it really takes to launch a mission-driven brand that will change how we nourish ourselves and the planet.
