Another CPG podcast crossing you schmoozers’ desk and we’re going out with a bang. Before Schmoozing With Span hits pause on CPG for the next two months, Span sits down with Kiki, co-founder of Sourmilk.

Kiki schlepped over 8,000 yogurts by hand, bootstrapped her way through the brutal early days of CPG, and built Sourmilk with a background in private equity, social media guru, and pure hustle. If you’ve ever wanted a real look at what it takes to build a consumer packaged goods brand this is the episode.

Go tell kiki you loved this episode and share

the love with Sourmilk!

WAKE UP CHICKIANAS ITS YOUR MOTHER HEN. You know Aja Win from TikTok: chaotic fashion hauls, elite niche vocab, and her unhinged sparkle.

In this episode of Schmoozing with Span, we sit down with Aja Win to dive deeper into how niche language builds community how dealing with health issues weirdly gives you chutzpah the kind that makes you show up louder, funnier, and more honest online.

Unfortunately, I was sick with basically no voice during this episode. Character-building. Still worth it.

THIS IS NOT A CPG PODCAST. I think in another lifetime I was meant to be a venture capitalist, as I’m literally on the frontlines of the NYC CPG girlies community.

This week I’m joined by my camp friend, college friend, fellow Jersey girl, and CPG bestie Gillian. Tons of synergies. The lore runs deep, at camp I was supposed to crown Gillian because we were the queens aka our version of big little…except she ended up having someone else crown her. Important lore. Still unpacking.

Years later, weve rekindled over her making the best HOUSE MADE NUT MILK IN NYC @notyourmommasnutmilk, and now she’s launching G’s Cheez in 2026.

We get into the behind-the-scenes of starting a business, breaking into the NYC CPG scene, and how camp, college, New Orleans, and Jersey shaped her founder brain and life trajectory. It’s startup talk, friendship lore, and zero pretending this is a traditional business podcast. This episode is giving I How Built this & The Toast had a baby.

So excited to share my first GUEST and of course it had to be the ice cream queen Ellie G. I cold emailed her like a true tech sales girlie, and somehow she said YES. In this episode, we dive headfirst into the big questions: Is remote work actually making me weird? (spoiler: yes, maybe).

Ellie G dives deep into building her small-batch ice cream empire in the West Village (started after a breakup (in Kaballah we would say PAUSE WHAT A PLEASURE)) crushing dream collabs with J.Crew, Bash, and One Trick Pony, and somehow finding spirituality in the middle of balancing it all.

I first discovered her through her beyond relatable video: Is remote work making me weird….? Now Ellie G shares what’s next for her career journey!

So grateful Ellie came on the pod, hope you love this episode as much as I loved making it.

It’s my first solo episode, so let’s LISTEN and DONT JUDGE. But seriously, it’s fall so let’s act like it.

Today we’re defining what “Doctor Hallin It Fall” really means and how to live a true DHI fall. Span has been having a little too much fun DHI and is now working on finding more balance.

Stay tuned to hear more about my fall bucket list. So let’s grab your refined suga free, gluten free, dairy free pumpkin treat and your golden milk latte, and sit back to sip and schmooze.

Sam is officially entering her soft Modern Orthodox era and things are getting well... religious. From a deep spiritual calling to enrolling in Kabbalah 1 (starting IRL in November).

Span and her longest friend Brittany set out to do market research for this episode embodying the KazuNori, Kabbalah and Keratin Effect lifestyle IRL... and let's just say they might have Kabbalah'd a little too close to the sun or should we say, the POND 🇬🇧👀.

Stick along for the journey on TikTok to see if they make it to London...

ITS SHOWTIME SCHMOOZERS. The long awaited episode 1 of Schmoozing with Span is finally here. Yes, 3 years ago Span told Alex Cooper she was starting this podcast and she replied, “you have so much to give” (x3 invisible ink). Well, cheers to GIVING.

In Episode 1, Jersey girl turned Texas cowgirl discovers FRONKS. Joined by her lifelong best friend Nicole - a soon-to-be frequent flyer on the show - the duo dives into their radio roots, love of fronks, and niche vocab. How far will these friends go to bring fronks to the big apple?
