Following this, Amelia and her daughter and co‑founder Jola spread awareness of a balanced, plant‑based lifestyle through GoMacro’s healthy and delicious Macro Bars, now available nationwide. The company remains guided by the values Jola and Amelia built:
Live Long, Eat Positive, Give Back, Tread Lightly, and Be Well. Our goal is to inspire people to have a healthy body, sharp mind, and bold spirit—and to do so through fun, meaningful work.
