Join in for a conversation with Josh Broun, Co-owner of Impact Kitchen. Impact Kitchen is a wellness company with 4 restaurants in Toronto. I’ve been a fan of Impact Kitchen since it’s first location at King East and I’ve been a patron here at least once a week for the last few years. It’s one of my staple places for legit healthy meals. My go-to is the paleo waffle though. A comfort food. So it was a real treat to speak with Josh, the man who helped create a place where I could get awesome coffee, work out of for a few hours, have some high-quality healthy food, in an awesome atmosphere. Josh’s journey did not start as a restauranteur. A hint, it involves going to university on a baseball scholarship in the US, studying health science, pursuing teaching, then firefighting, then becoming a personal trainer for successful entrepreneurs. Josh rekindled an inner entrepreneurial fire while getting a masterclass on business from his clients as he learned about their lives over the years. Through our chat, we go through the stress he felt early when he didn’t feel like he had his life figured out at 25 to the journey of starting Impact Kitchen at 35 to what it’s been like in the last 5 years of building the business.
