MINDY ROBBINS | EPISODE 102

FEATURED GUEST

Our V.I.P. Featured Guest Mindy Robbins, Creator and Founder of Happy Sparkles Treats. She was born with food allergies and had to drastically adjust her diet in 2017. Even worse, her daughter Ruby was also diagnosed in 2nd grade with the same food allergies as mine. They had to eliminate everything with gluten, dairy, nut, and soy–even their favorite brownies!

After experiencing the lack of options available, Mindy was determined to solve this problem. Her vision wasn’t just to make the best gluten-free brownies. It was to make THE BEST BROWNIES! Brownies that are so delicious you would never know they are gluten, dairy, nut, and soy free!

After countless revisions and fine-tuning, Mindy finally created the winning recipe. Her favorite part is taste-testing with people that don’t have food allergies. They can’t believe they are gluten, dairy, nut and soy free! It brings her great joy that her family and friends are as excited as we are about these brownies.

Her vision grew. Mindy wanted to make these brownies available everywhere! She was blessed to be introduced to the talented and accomplished Michael Robins, a Certified Master Chef in America and President of Integrated Culinary Systems, Inc. Together they were able to turn her recipe into a shelf-stable ready-to-eat product that ALL can enjoy!

CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS

People: She is a people person, she is a problem solver and her careers have and do center around service to others. She shares the roles and how from her first job, to her first entrepreneur endeavor all the way to where she is today! Mindy gives credit to all of the people and groups that continue to support and encourage her in the Happy Sparkles Treats mission of her gluten, dairy, nut, and soy free-delicious brownies. She talks about the connections, the blessings and journey of serendipitous encounters along the way. Shout out to LinkedIn too! How about the customers and their feedback, again…she is serving people and their fun stories they are share-hiding the brownies-tune in, I think many of us can relate!

4AM: Mindy is both structured and spontaneous! She shares time management best practice that allows her the space to be successful in both. In fact, we lucked out because she leaves time to “say yes to this!”. She shares that waking up at 4AM is when she’s able to have the quiet time before the day gets going-handles the business, family life, enjoying it-then ends the day with more quiet time. It’s quiet.

Unstoppable: Fascinating that Mindy is able to tie back so much of the inspiration, Easy Bake Oven, Mister Rogers Factory Visits, her father baking on Sunday’s,

She shares that she doesn’t get stuck for long! Mindy shares that it’s the vision pulls her versus feeling a level of being “pushed”. She talks staying focus on the solution and not the problem, there is always a way! She honors the vision. Mindy refers to being blessed and she explains why…goosebumps! Food Powerful connection and social experience that brings us together and her story about the classmates trading cheese pizza for her brownies…ban! Mindy says it’s the confirmation that she is on the right track that drives her. She reminds us that when you are determined, have a passion, you have a mission and your why-you are unstoppable!
