Khloé Kardashian Just Raised $15 Million For Protein Popcorn. Here's What Every Woman Needs To Know. | Ep. 177
SLAYShow Notes
KHLOÉ KARDASHIAN JUST RAISED $15 MILLION FOR PROTEIN POPCORN.
Read that again. Not protein powder. Not supplements. Not recovery drinks. Popcorn.
This week on The SLAY Podcast, Louise Hazel breaks down the news that Khloé Kardashian's snack company Khloud has raised another $15 million in funding and why this story is about far more than popcorn. Because behind this headline lies a much bigger shift in women's health. For decades women were told to eat less, shrink themselves, and obsess over calories. Now the conversation has shifted toward protein, muscle, strength, longevity, and performance. But are we actually becoming more informed? Or are companies simply adding a few grams of protein to snacks and selling us the illusion of health?
In this episode you'll learn: • Why investors are pouring millions into protein products • The difference between foods that contain protein and true protein sources • Why 7g of protein isn't enough to support most fitness goals • The rise of the "strength economy" • The 5 protein foods every woman should prioritize • How to avoid falling for health halos and protein marketing
Because the future of women's health isn't protein popcorn. It's protein literacy.

This is it. Twelve weeks of training. Long runs. Strength sessions. Early mornings. Fuel. Recovery. Self-doubt. Progress. And now there is only one thing left to do: Race.
You're TWO WEEKS away from your half marathon. And suddenly you're questioning everything. Did I train enough? Was my longest run long enough? Why do my legs feel terrible? Should I run this week? Should I carb load? How many gels do I need? Can I walk? What if I can't sleep? What if everyone starts faster than me? And the biggest question of all... What if I can't finish?
You've spent weeks training for your half marathon. And now that race day is getting closer... Your training plan is telling you to do less.
You’ve been training for weeks. You’re running further. You’re lifting weights. You’re fueling properly. You’re recovering better. So why aren’t you getting faster every week? And if your pace hasn’t changed… is your training actually working? In Episode 10 of the SLAY Stronger Runner Series, Olympian, coach and SLAY founder Louise Hazel explains why pace is only one measure of running progress, and why you could be becoming a significantly better runner without seeing a dramatic change on your watch.
You’re training for 13.1 miles. But does that mean you actually need to run 13.1 miles before race day? And if you haven't… how can you possibly know you'll finish?
