IWD Inspirational Female Founders Spotlight: Isabel Zapf

“From a very young age, my inspiration was to align performance and wellbeing. Living a successful life professionally as well as personally means for me facing challenges with ease, confidence and resilience while keeping my heart light and my attitude positive. Every morning is a fresh start. We strive to be and feel at our best to enjoy every single day. For that inner peace and physical wellbeing as well as a strong connection to nature are key. Personally I noticed that especially what I ate had a huge impact on my mental focus, physical strength and inner peace on that day. That’s why I created Z-Ora. A breakfast for those who strive to be their best selves and who want to give their body only the best. 

Based on science, inspired by nature and formulated with high-quality ingredients, I wanted to create a product that meets the highest standards and delivers the promises to be the golden partner from the very first hours of the day and in the long run. Our products invite you for a moment of wellbeing; begin your morning with balance, clarity and strength and have a fabulous start into your day!”

You cannot make it alone so ask for advice, reach out for help and listen – find your peer groups, your first fans and get in touch with your clients. And always listen to your intuition!
