HelloPrenup & the Knot Promote Prenups in ‘Get the Prenup’

HelloPrenup & the Knot Promote Prenups in ‘Get the Prenup’

The Knot, a leading wedding publication, featured the premier prenuptial agreement platform, HelloPrenup, to propose the importance of prenups when entering into marriage.

The informative series, "Get the Prenup," written by Deputy Editor, Esther Lee, in The Knot Magazine Summer 2023 Inspiration Issue, with designed illustrations by Abby McCartin, gets on one knee about the benefits of prenuptial agreements and how at minimum, a prenup can encourage communication before entering marriage.

Prenuptial agreements by nature are designed to be a wealth planning tool and act as a key resource for getting on the same page financially as their partner. 

"While each marriage differs, a solid prenup unifies couples in at least one respect: It encourages communication as you prepare for marriage…With contractual services available online, there's little reason not to discuss your financial solution with your partner. Trust us: Sign the prenup before the marriage license." - Esther Lee, Deputy Editor, The Knot

Though prenups have traditionally been seen as "taboo" or "unromantic," there's an increasing shift in prenup perceptions among millennials and Gen-Zers and how the benefits mitigate potential risks encountered prior to getting into a legally binding contract. 

"Our data found that 46% of couples describe prenups as 'smart,' while another 20 percent perceived these contracts to be 'cynical," says Lee.

Featured within the article is Julia Rodgers, the Chief Prenup Officer and CEO of HelloPrenup—the online prenuptial agreement platform for affordable, timely, and collaborative prenups. Traditionally, the prenuptial agreement process was sought through billable attorney hours, lengthy contract negotiations, and relatively adversarial conversations between partners and their counsel. Within the article, she gives examples of how states view money as a married couple and what to consider when discussing the couple's future.

"Without a prenuptial agreement, in most states, monetary gifts received during the marriage will be considered marital property. A prenup allows couples to decide if they would like these monetary gifts to be considered separate property." — Julia Rodgers, CEO & co-founder, HelloPrenup

HelloPrenup's mission is to get every couple the legal protection they need without spending thousands of hours or dollars on prioritizing their financial future before entering one of the most exciting times of their lives.

HelloPrenup has been featured on Shark TankCNN BusinessForbesThe Boston GlobeGeekWire, and The New Yorker, among others. Want more information on Julia or HelloPrenup? Contact [email protected] or visit HelloPrenup.com to learn more.

Platypod Launches Kickstarter Campaign for the New Platypod Handle, One of the Most Versatile Accessories in Imaging

Platypod Launches Kickstarter Campaign for the New Platypod Handle, One of the Most Versatile...

The Platypod Handle is a vlogger's grip and camera riser, destined to become one of the most diverse creative tools in the company's history. Platypod, the leader in compact tripod alternatives, Platyball and the award-winning eXtreme, is leveraging their broad popularity with their fifth Kickstarter campaign on April 26, 2023.

Platypod's fifth Kickstarter campaign launched today on the popular KelbyMedia podcast, "The Grid." The new Platypod Handle joins an extensive product group already established with the Platypod ecosystem. What makes this new accessory unique is its wide versatility in so many different applications. 

The Platypod Handle is 1.5" in diameter and extends from 6 ½" to 10 ½" or can be reassembled to 3" in height. At the top stage are eight ¼"-20 threaded sockets to accommodate Platypod elbows and goosenecks. The Handle will support 11 lbs. and has an Arca-compatible base with a stainless steel reinforced 3/8" - 16 socket. It's an all-aluminum machined ergonomic stackable body and is compatible with all Platypods and most common tripods.

"With my inventions, I always try to fill a need with a product that is not currently available. The Platypod Handle combines the functions of a multi-level riser, video grip and cage, a tripod center column extender, as well as a potential boom arm. Like all our quality products the Handle is finely machined, rock-solid aluminum build and will become indispensable in every artist's imaging tool kit."  - Larry Tiefenbrunn, CEO/Inventor, Platypod

The Platypod Kickstarter Campaign runs through May 31, 2023. Although the retail price is set at $69, backers can pledge any one of eight different levels, each with considerable savings for both the handle and other Platypod products. First-day backers will be privy to a super special deal.

There are complete details, images, and videos of the new Platypod Handle on the Kickstarter page where backers can determine the tier they prefer and make a pledge. You can learn more about other Platypod models, accessories, and the company's unique, premium Platyball tripod heads at http://www.platypod.com.

NHCOA Will Host Its First Virtual Legislative Breakfast

NHCOA Will Host Its First Virtual Legislative Breakfast

A space to give a voice to the Latino community before members of Congress.

 The National Hispanic Council on Aging (NHCOA) continues its mission to ensure a dignified life for older adult communities in the United States. As a result, it has set out to be a voice for the community and to advocate for its key challenges in order to achieve substantial, timely and favorable change for all.

To accomplish this, NHCOA will host its virtual Legislative Breakfast on May 2, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. (EST) via GoToWebinar. The event seeks to open the discussion on key issues affecting Latinos before members of Congress, who will be the special guests of this new project. NHCOA also aims to bring together legislators and constituents to discuss legislative priorities and understanding from leaders of the older adult communities in the U.S. This event aims to facilitate discussions around the preeminent matters impacting older adults today, such as improving the access and affordability of drugs to treat obesity and Alzheimer's disease, as well as the importance of vaccination schedules that include immunizations against influenza, pneumococcus and shingles.

This space will also serve to address other issues related to health care for older adults, such as barriers to access to prescription drugs, health insurance barriers, and the importance of Medicare for communities. There will also be discussions regarding access to treatment for chronic diseases such as obesity and Alzheimer's and the challenges in caring for patients with these conditions and health disparities between black and Latino communities, exacerbated by the inequities uncovered by the pandemic.

The Legislative Breakfast will feature presentations by NHCOA experts along with national and international organizations working with older adults, among others. The event is free and open to the public.

World’s Largest Grower of Healthy, Flavorful Leafy Greens Says Watercress Can Improve Mental Heath

World’s Largest Grower of Healthy, Flavorful Leafy Greens Says Watercress Can Improve Mental Heath

Watercress is packed with 28 essential vitamins, minerals, and compounds — all these nutrients are related to preventing and treating depressive disorders.

Watercress

Watercress grown by B&W Quality Growers

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and B&W Quality Growers (B&W), the world's largest grower of healthy, flavorful leafy greens, highlights nutrition's impact on mental well-being.

Mental health and nutrition are reciprocal. What people eat affects their mental health, and mental health influences how they think, feel, and act. The latest American Medical Association poll shows that 66% of American adults understand the connection, and 81% are inclined to improve their diet to improve mental health.

Americans agree that work (70%), family stress (68%), exercise (65%), and social habits (61%) have a more substantial impact on their mental health compared to their diet (58%). But, they agree that their diet (58%) substantially impacts their mental health. Additionally, of the variables that affect mental health, diet and exercise, are the areas individuals have the most control over.

When asked how they'd modified their diet, most adults said it was by drinking more water (66%) and consuming more fruits (50%) and vegetables (53%). 

B&W has a quick way to improve someone's diet with the most nutrient-dense food on the planet — watercress. Watercress is packed with 28 essential vitamins, minerals, and compounds and is the only food to obtain a perfect score on both the ANDI and CDC indexes. 

In addition to being the most nutrient-dense food on the planet, watercress also scores high on the Antidepressant Food Scale because of its nutrient-dense properties. For example, watercress has more folate than a banana and more Vitamin C than an orange. Watercress is also an excellent source of highly soluble iron, zinc, magnesium, and Vitamin B. All these nutrients are related to preventing and treating depressive disorders. 

Awareness is key. Everyone should also know the signs of mental health struggles for themselves and those around them. This can include a change in eating habits, both over- and undereating, insomnia, changes in energy levels, shying away from others, feelings of despair, unexplained confusion, anger, guilt or anxiety, unable to perform daily tasks, unpredictable mood swings, considering self-harm, and indulging in alcohol or other substances more than usual.

There are several circumstances that can affect mental health, but there are ways to help reduce suffering and the chance of onset. Incorporating a healthier diet is a simple way to start. 

About B&W Quality Growers

B&W Quality Growers has been farming responsibly since 1870. We're among the largest growers of distinctive leafy greens, including watercress, arugula, spinach, and ong choy. We sustainably grow, pack, and ship the highest-quality distinctive leafy greens, providing well-being for our consumers and value for our customers.

Space Tea Releases Premium Mushroom Tea & Lemonade Beverage at The Vitamin Shoppe Locations...

Space Tea, the world's first adaptogenic mushroom drink, is now available in four assorted flavors.

Space Tea is proud to announce the world's first adaptogenic mushroom iced tea and lemonade beverage with four flavors—Original, Mango, Lemon Zero, Matcha Zero—now available at The Vitamin Shoppe locations nationwide. Space Tea is certified organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, and kosher, using Reishi mushrooms and Lion's Mane mushrooms. 

"The Vitamin Shoppe and Space Tea have partnered to roll out Space Tea, the world's first mushroom tea and lemonade beverage," co-founder & CEO Gabriel Heymann said. "It is a refreshing and classic blend of iced tea and lemonade with a new twist: brewed with non-psychoactive functional Reishi mushrooms and Lion's Mane mushrooms for uplifting energy, calm focus, and mood-boosting."   

According to tamimteas.com, functional mushrooms with Lion's Mane, Reishi, and Chaga have been used as natural remedies to soothe and heal the body for centuries, supporting digestion, energy, the immune system, mental clarity, mood, relaxation, and sleep. Adaptogens are herbs that can help the body's stress response systems and improve the ability to adapt and restore after stress exposure. 

"Space Tea is full of high-quality ingredients used for centuries to promote focus and mental clarity," Heymann said. "Our latest expansion enables more people to experience the potential benefits of Reishi and Lion's Mane mushroom in an amazing-tasting beverage format, and we are proud to lead the industry in this way." 

According to Research and Markets, the size of the global functional beverage market was estimated at $147 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $208 billion in 2027. 

Grand View Research has found that the global functional mushroom market reached sales of $26 billion in 2021, with a compound annual growth rate of 10.8% being predicted between 2022 and 2030 attributed to the growing popularity of functional mushrooms that can be found in a variety of healthcare and pharmaceutical products. 

Space Tea's partnership with The Vitamin Shoppe follows a successful Space Tea launch over 390 Sprouts Farmers Market locations, one of the fastest-growing retailers in the country.  

Launched in August 2021, Space Tea quickly became a bestseller garnering a substantial following across Southern California. It is also available at Bristol Farms, Earthbar, Erewhon Market, Lazy Acres, Mother's Market and Sun Life.
