E284｜Need Better Sleep? Try Leapfrog Remedies’ ‘Miracle Molecule’
The psychic prediction that led to the launch of the UK’s first Lactoferrin brand… and why you should add it to your shopping list.
What do you do when your husband tells you your business isn’t scalable and you know deep down he’s right?
For entrepreneur Stephanie Drax, hearing those words after pouring five years of her life into a business left her paralysed with fear. Suddenly, every self-doubt surfaced: Do I have any real skills? Have I wasted my time? Am I capable of building something that lasts?
But instead of giving up, Stephanie leaned into the tenacity her husband saw in her and created an innovative new business.
Why you should tune in
It all started when yet another cold swept through her household. Frustrated, she went searching for a real solution and stumbled upon lactoferrin – a ‘miracle molecule’ found in colostrum, scientifically proven to be antiviral, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, gut-enhancing, and immune-boosting.
Today, Stephanie is the founder of Leapfrog Remedies, the first lactoferrin brand in the UK – and what’s even wilder? A psychic predicted it all.
🎧 Tune in and discover:
[00:45] What lactoferrin actually is.
[03:06] How to deal with a pinball career.
[05:54] What do you do when you can’t scale your business?
