Tim Eaton Founder & CEO of NutraMedix Episode 317
Tim Eaton is the Founder and CEO of NutraMedix, a company dedicated to developing plant-based nutritional supplements while operating from a mission far greater than business success. A former missionary pilot in Peru, Tim's journey took him from flying supplies into remote villages to learning about medicinal plants from indigenous communities, ultimately leading him to build a company centered on helping people pursue better health while giving generously to ministries around the world. His story is one of faith, stewardship, and a lifelong commitment to serving others.
Tim joins me today to share how growing up on a farm in Maine shaped his work ethic, why missionary aviation became his first calling, and how his experiences in Peru unexpectedly laid the foundation for NutraMedix. We discuss the philosophy behind whole-plant nutrition, why stewardship, not ownership, drives every business decision he makes, and how his desire to fund ministry has remained at the heart of the company for more than three decades. Tim also shares practical insights on health, purpose, and what it means to faithfully use the gifts God has entrusted to us.
