We had the good fortune of connecting with Connor Morgan Huff and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Connor Morgan, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I was always into health and fitness but was working as a full time private jet flight attendant. I would spend my free time researching all things health and wellness and would always share them to my social media accounts and realized that anytime i would post things i would have a large outpour of people contacting me about the vitamins and supplements that I would post. When the pandemic hit, like many others i stopped working, planes wernt flying since everywhere was closed. I was so used to being gone for weeks at a time traveling for work that i never had time to just sit down and really plan for much. The pandemic inadvertently pushed me into my purpose. For the first time the answer that i had always longed for was right in front of my face, I was always posting other brands and discussing their benefits, why wouldnt i start my own brand? And thats where Bare Root Remedy was born. It was a domino affect, i was so passionate about it that once i got started I was ripping and running and in under a year i launched my company
Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Im excited to tell the world about my business Bare Root Remedy. Its unfortunate that Covid hit but it also made “healthy” this new trend that everyone wants a part in and I am so excited about that. I went to school and studied Business Marketing at California Polytechnic University, so I do already have some experience in Business but i dont think there was any class that could give me the skills and prepare me to running my own business as much as jumping in and just doing it.
At Bare Root Remedy our main core value is showing people that the remedy is in the root, its in what we consume and we dont need pharmaceutical medicine, we need plants. If you want to shine on the outside you have to take care of your insides. At Bare root remedy we love educating people on how plants are our medicine, anything you need to cure your body is in mother nature herbs.
It has been a journey running my own business and I would be lying to say that its been easy, its a grind and im still learning along the way. Im learning that to run a successful business it requires a team, it requires hard work and dedication to get up everyday and want to do something that on somedays you may not feel like doing but that you have to do.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
If my best friend was visiting LA i would take her on a hike to Malibu, to have lunch at Nobu and spa day at the four seasons afterwards.
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
To all my friends who are entrepreneurs and not only gave me the motivation i needed to get started but pushed me to the finish line as well, I wouldnt have been able to do it without you guys.
