Joy Bauer understood that she had a passion for health and fitness -- especially healthy foods -- early. She also realized that many other people didn't share her passion. She saw that these people didn't have the time, energy or interest to learn about which ingredients you should look for (or watch out for) when searching for healthy snacks.

So, Bauer learned how to utilize her passion and give people easy ways to find healthy foods that they -- and their kids -- would like.

In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Jen Hacker interviews Bauer, who is a New York Times bestselling author in addition to being an entrepreneur.
