I definitely appreciate when companies share their values in response to world events. I have a growing list of companies I want to support more woth my business and those I want to avoid/boycott because of their stances, silence, or donations. We vote with our dollars, too.✌️
I appreciated both of your posts. The values of the companies I interact with are important to me. I am a white woman in MN in her sixties who believes we can do better. I appreciate you.
I find this interesting as how many companies have been held to the fire for political policies. The whole Target and inclusion, Costco being supported for their decisions. I think there is a BIG push for people to align their spending with a company who shares their values.
I think this is an important thread to pull on. Costco didn’t necessarily declare their values on Insta, where it’s easy to react. They shared a letter to shareholders stating what they will and will not do, and what they believe…and that got out to the media. So perhaps it’s both method and platform. Where it’s easy for Chad to be the racist, insecure prick he’s always been - i.e. insta - the comments flood in. So yes, perhaps the person-ness has an impact, but I think there’s more to it.
Thank for for sharing the data and the difference in the reaction to you as a person and you as a brand. I’m spinning right now. This seems so clear that I’m struggling to understand the support, excuses or just looking away from what ICE is doing. I feel powerless. Supporting a person and/or brand that is speaking truth feels like I am doing something. I know it’s not enough but it feels like something.
I’m committed to supporting brands that are transparent about their values and ones put their beliefs into action. My money, attention, and loyalty flow in that direction. Bravo to you and W30 for your courage and convictions. And…may we find a way to heal from the current division and cruelty - one step at a time.
I'm happy to hear it! I started drafting this Monday night when I knew there was something to unpack, and I'm glad I updated it yesterday because the numbers changed dramatically on the Whole30 side in just one day.
I deleted IG and while I love reclaiming my time I miss your videos! Always appreciate how honest and values based you are - as a business leader you truly walk the talk and lead by example!
I very much agree with your sentiments regarding the posts you put out. However, I feel that I keep seeing people (probably me projecting) using generic names like Carol or David to use as an example of someone leaving a negative comment and these persons are invariably from the Midwest or the South. I just want others to know that there so many blue dots in red states who care about other people’s lives and rights and hate what’s going on. Most of the people I know who voted red voted because they thought the republicans would do something about rising costs, not because they believe the what the man in orange is selling. Thank you still for using your platforms to speak out. ❤️
Thank you for standing up for what is right in both of your social media messages. I wish more brands would speak out about where they stand on things like this that really matter and impact their customers. I want to spend my money on brands that share my values for basic human rights and respect. I appreciate you both as an individual, and as a brand, and what you stand for.
WOW! Couldn’t love this more. Thanks for sharing what is important both personally and as a company. I get a lot of marketing emails and was thinking about deleting some just to cut back on email volume. Whole30 has now moved to the top of my list of posts I WANT to read. Thanks again for using your voice to speak out.
I have been following you since your first book, which changed my health. I am grateful that you spoke out. We all need to at this point. I also tend to vote with my dollars. Thank you for all you do.
I’m always so glad when I see posts from you and from Whole30 about things we should all care about. It’s important to me that the brands I support and care about also CARE ABOUT PEOPLE. <3

We do, that is so important. (It’s been a year and three months since I’ve shopped at Target.)
Thank you for speaking up about the horrors going on in this country. Silence is complicity.
Thank you for using your platform and sharing the results of it! Grateful for you and Whole 30 💗
Appreciate the support. XO

I’ve followed you since 2012. I’ve always respected you and do even more so now. Thank you for all you do 🩷
Appreciated, Tracy. That's such a long time! 😭 I'm honored.

Just when I think I could not love you more…

Love seeing behind the curtain on this and the brand vs person take resonates
