Chris Hansen - Founder of Vaycay Global

Chris Broby Hansen's story on this episode moves from medical sales into something far more personal. Co-founder of Vaycay Global, a Florida-based wellness and lifestyle brand, Chris walks the hosts through his career in medical sales before turning to his own recovery from addiction, a chapter that ultimately shaped the direction his business would take.

That backstory sets up the heart of the conversation: how Vaycay Global came together as a wellness and lifestyle company, and why Chris chose to build it in Florida. The discussion spends real time on CBD and cannabis products, a subject the hosts treat as genuinely relevant to Sarasota's wellness scene, with Chris explaining potential benefits alongside the basics listeners should understand.

The company's tagline, "Don't Trip, take a VayCay," captures the tone of the episode as much as the brand itself, blending a serious personal story with an easygoing pitch for a wellness product line. Listeners looking to learn more are pointed toward Vaycay Global's website and social channels for further details.
