Finn Hodgins, Angel Investor

Originally founded by my wife Claire and me, Grouped gave online coaches and creators a space to build private membership communities, away from traditional social networks for data ownership. The idea sparked because Claire, a healthy food creator, needed a place to sell her weekly recipe plans and build a community around her own audience. We launched with Claire's group, which crushed it. But because her offering was so niche, it was hard to replicate with other creators in health and wellness. Because Grouped pivoted into the music industry, Claire and I decided to launch a new SAAS company for her community that was built specifically around meal planning and grocery shopping, called 'Planned' (currently being rebranded to Healthy Kitchen). Things got a little crazy for me, having two startups, and my passions lie in the health and wellness space, so I decided to sell most of my shares in Grouped and go all in on Planned. One of our first moves was rebranding the company to Healthy Kitchen (in progress) - which we will build into a media empire and funnel people to our app, investments, and partnerships. We've also started angel investing in exciting companies in health & wellness. We're huge believers in the MAHA movement and hope to do our part in helping people enjoy healthy food & lifestyle through our companies.
