Michael D. Ham is an entrepreneur and the co-founder and president of Wild Orchard Regenerative Teas and RePure. He sees the pandemic as culturally transformative and believes that now is the time to move beyond "sustainable" and "net-zero" to "regenerative" and "net-positive." With his tea company, he wants to make the highest quality tea available, grown on a regenerative farm and free of all the toxins that contaminate industrial produced teas. And with his new venture, RePure, he wants to provide an in-home "OS" that can monitor the air, water, and light health of our indoor spaces. 

Michael and show host Neal discuss Michael’s upbringing with immigrant parents from South Korea and how he eventually found his way to starting the first company to offer regenerative organic certified teas.  They also discuss the importance of creating healthy indoor environments—where we spend 90% of our time—which is the focus of Michael's newest venture RePure. They talk about the risks of EMFs, the public's current level of understanding when it comes to healthy indoor environments, and the challenges of starting a business in an emerging industry.
