get in touch
Olivia “Liv” Sain is the founder of Liv’s Gourmet Pickles, an award-winning specialty food brand born from one of the hardest chapters of her life. The idea came 30 days after leaving detox, when Liv decided the life she had nearly destroyed wasn’t going to be the end of her story. She turned survival into ambition, pain into purpose, and a simple pickle business into a six-figure projected brand recognized by the Orlando Sentinel Foodie Awards three years in a row. Branded “Sober Made, Purpose Driven,” Liv isn’t interested in just making pickles — she’s making pickles that matter.
Today, Liv uses entrepreneurship as a platform to talk unapologetically about recovery, reinvention, and what it takes to build a life you once couldn’t imagine having. Her message isn’t only for people in recovery or entrepreneurs — it’s for anyone who has ever needed another shot at becoming who they were meant to be. Because sometimes it isn’t your second chance. Sometimes it’s your twentieth. Take it anyway. Liv is proof that your darkest chapter doesn’t disqualify you from an extraordinary future — sometimes it becomes the damn reason you build one.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:
- That your hardest chapter can become the raw material for a purpose-driven business and life.
- How Liv turned a simple pickle idea into a six-figure projected brand within a few years.
- Why recovery and entrepreneurship demand the same consistency, discipline, resilience, and willingness to start again.
- That it is never too late to start over, whether for a career, relationship, or dream.
- How showing up when the outcome isn’t guaranteed builds both sobriety and a sustainable brand.
- Why being different can be your greatest advantage in business, because rare gets you remembered.
- That transformation happens through small choices made consistently, not just big intentions or promises.
- How you can rebuild your life while building a dream, even when the outcome isn’t guaranteed.
- Why success means more when what you build has a purpose beyond profit and product.
- How taking your twentieth chance can become proof to someone else that change is possible.
