Tim Rexius is a serial entrepreneur, international brand builder, and dynamic speaker who has scaled multiple companies — including the rapidly growing Omaha Protein Popcorn Co. — all without outside investment. His journey is a testament to grit over privilege: from sleeping in his car and surviving on ketchup-packet “soup,” to building brands now sold in over 6,000 retailers across 13 countries (and rapidly expanding beyond).

With more than 20 years of experience in health and nutrition, international sales, and brick-and-mortar retail, Tim has become known for disrupting broken systems and serving the 95% of people overlooked by the traditional health food industry — kids, parents, and everyday consumers who want to eat better without sacrificing taste.

Beyond the metrics, Tim’s story is one of identity evolution, strategic pivots, deep failures, and a commitment to legacy. He balances four companies, six kids, and a thriving marriage, while delivering 30+ keynotes a year to audiences ranging from high school students to top business leaders. His candid, no-BS approach resonates because he’s lived every chapter — the setbacks, the reinventions, and the climb.

Today, Tim’s mission is simple:
Help everyday people achieve extraordinary things — no investors, no shortcuts.
