OUR STORY
As Division I field hockey players, my teammates and I were more than accustomed to hard workouts and soreness. What we couldn’t stomach, literally, were the protein powders and shakes that followed. These products, with roots in the male body building industry, just weren’t designed for women. We felt bulky and nauseated, and we dreaded every sip. This got me thinking...there HAD to be a better way to give our bodies the post-workout fuel we needed.
I decided to reach out to elite female athletes across the country to get their input on protein recovery. It became clear that these women shared my frustration at the lack of female-specific formulations. We saw a problem that needed fixing.
With numerous hours of brainstorming, market research and customer discovery, we formulated a simple, plant-based superfood powder that we like to refer to as FEM Power Restore. We hope you love its taste and feel great drinking it after your workout. That’s what you deserve.
OUR JOURNEY
Beginning my FEM Power business venture while attending the University of Iowa, I knew I had a great love for the people and atmosphere of Iowa City. It had so much to offer with community involvement and acceptance for what was then, a brand new startup.
Following my graduation and the end of my athletic career, I decided to pack my things and move to Utah with my partner, Dylan and our golden doodle, Oliver. The beautiful mountains of Utah make it almost impossible to be inactive!
My love for the mountains continued to grow strong, and although Salt Lake City was of wonderful exposure to these new surroundings, I felt a desire to explore more. In the summer of 2020, Dylan and I packed up our things and headed to Bozeman, Montana, where we now call home!
FEM Power has and continues to generate connections in all three states and many others across the country!
