  Cocoa and Purpose: Ep 63 David Montoya

  Sep 25, 20261h 6mS1

  THIS EPISODE IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY CAÚA — BEYOND CHOCOLATE Chocolate starts with cacao—but there is much more to cacao than chocolate. In this episode, I sit down with CAÚA founder David Montoya to talk about faith, family, health, our relationship with food, and why he believes cacao deserves to be rediscovered in its pure form. CAÚA First Harvest is 100% pure Colombian cacao, made without added sugar or unnecessary ingredients. It’s cacao brought closer to its origin—something you can incorporate into an intentional daily ritual as a warm drink or enjoy on its own. CAÚA’s philosophy is Beyond Chocolate: reconnecting people with cacao as a whole food, its origin, the farmers and ecosystems behind it, and a more intentional relationship with what we put into our bodies.
