To Drew Canoli, the founder and CEO of Organifi, Paul is far more than a business associate and neighbor in Southern California. Paul is a close friend whose mission — making the world a better, healthier place — mirrors Drew’s vision.
Drew picks Paul’s brain on a great many topics, from parasite infections and poop to lifestyle changes for cancer patients, relationships, eating light and so much more this week on Spirit Gym.
