Poppi founder Allison Ellsworth went from making soda in her kitchen to selling her company to PepsiCo for $1.95 billion

Ellsworth compares handing over the reins of her company to watching a child go off to college.  “You’re happy but you have anxiety,” she says. “You want to see it flourish, but you want to hold on. But I have a calmness. We did good. Poppi is in good hands.”
