Welcome to Living Well (or Trying To), I’m your host Janet—wellness enthusiast, yoga pose outfit-checker, and someone who’s maybe 73% thriving at any given moment. On this show, we talk real-life wellness: the messy, the mindful, and everything in between.
This is a place where we love our veggies and meditation, but we also love a good night out dancing, pizza and ramen, and the occasional tequila shot…or 3. And we know that 5am mornings and 20-step routines are for some people, but not I - because I’m a night owl, but I can be healthy too. ‘Living well’ means different things to different people - what does a life well lived mean to you? Let’s dig in together.

Episode 48: Gut Instincts & Grit: Building wildwonder with Rosa Li
I sit down with Rosa Li, founder and CEO of Wild Wonder, the world’s first sparkling beverage brand to combine both prebiotics and probiotics for gut health—blending ancient Chinese herbal wisdom with modern science.
Rosa shares how her grandmother’s traditional tonic recipes shaped her approach to wellness and inspired the brand’s roots, and how a high-pressure career on Wall Street led her to prioritize sleep, movement, and nourishment. From weathering the Silicon Valley Bank crash to navigating a major distributor’s cyberattack, Rosa gives a real and grounded look into what it actually takes to build a purpose-driven business.
We also talk about:
Her sleep and wellness non-negotiables
The mental shift from working in finance to building a CPG brand
Representation in the food and beverage industry
Creating boundaries as a founder to avoid burnout
Why she leads with calm and transparency—even during crisis
If you’ve ever felt the pull between hustle and healing, or wondered how to lead a team while honoring your values, this episode will leave you inspired—and maybe even rethinking your own idea of "balance."
