Follow the fun to find success: #PitchPro Ashley Leroux & Patrick Sullivan

This episode of “Pitch Live with Amy Summers” podcast features husband-and-wife power duo Patrick Sullivan Jr. and Ashley Leroux, the brilliant entrepreneurial team behind Jigsaw Health, known for their delicious magnesium and potassium electrolyte powders that make feeling good easy. Together, Patrick and Ashley — affectionately known as “Pashley” — have built an empire that blends wellness, creativity, and community. They’re not only successful business partners, but also musicians, filmmakers, and passionate pickleball players who turned their love for the sport into The Orchard @ Jigsaw Health, a boutique indoor pickleball stadium in Scottsdale that inspired their Amazon Prime documentary, “Breaking Pickleball.” Now, they’re tackling an even bigger project — producing, “Breaking Big Food: How The American Food System Went Rotten, and How It's Being Revived,” while also brewing up inspiration (and espresso) at their newest venture, Firefly Organic Coffee & Market.

Key pitching takeaways from Patrick Sullivan & Ashley Leroux on this episode of “Pitch Live”:

• Set the tone: Start your pitch by lowering defenses — try, “This might be a bad idea, but hear me out…” — then pivot to a “yes, and” mindset.
• Move through friction: When ideas stall, take a walk. Movement sparks creativity and clarity.
• Follow the laughter: If it makes you laugh, you’re on the right track.
• Do what’s fun: Success follows passion, not spreadsheets — lean into what energizes you.
• Answer the call: When you feel called to do something, don’t hesitate — act and make an impact.
• Think big: Avoid making your pitch too niche; your idea needs a broad, addressable market.
• Cast a wide net: Share your pitch broadly — don’t wait for one “perfect” audience or opportunity.
• Value the people: The real reward isn’t just the journey — it’s the company you keep along the way.
