Who is Audrey Sommerfeld

“I grew up on food stamps. I wore leg braces to walk. I had facial deformaties and had to wear braces and break my jaw, and speech therapy to speak clearly. I was told to settle. I was disowned for dreaming bigger. And I almost ended it all, until I heard a voice that said, ‘You were meant for more.’”

Audrey Sommerfeld, our Founder, is no stranger to adversity, or to scale.

She built global brands at P&G, Johnson & Johnson, Herbalife, and ViSalus—helping take companies from millions to billions.

But she also saw the greed, the hype, and the dishonesty that plagued the health and wellness industry.

So she built what she wished existed: A values-based company rooted in science, transparency, and heart, where customers heal and entrepreneurs earn fairly.

This isn’t just a product company. It’s a movement.

Health. Wealth. Living. Giving.

That’s what drives us—and what makes Jump To Health positioned for breakout growth.

Here’s What I’ve Learned

By Audrey Sommerfeld, Founder

I didn’t grow up with a silver spoon.

I grew up with food stamps, leg braces, and a face doctors said they’d need to break my jaw to fix.

I had a jaw deformity—my top jaw was smaller than my bottom. I spent eight years in dental work, braces, and speech therapy. My legs were in braces too, just to help me walk. And I learned quickly that when you're different, people treat you differently.

I grew up in a town of 200 people, where dreams were small, and silence was survival.

My father was angry. My mother belittled. And the unspoken rule was clear: girls don’t need ambition—they need to behave.

With help of two teachers, they agreed I could go to school, but they told me: Be a nurse. Maybe a teacher. Don’t expect more.

So I tried. I really did.

But when I said, “I want a different path,” my mother said, “I have no daughter now.”

I was disowned. I had no one. I faced the holidays with nowhere to go (I was in a dorm, I had to leave).

One night, I stood on a bridge wondering if the world would notice if I disappeared.

Here’s what I’ve learned…

 

1. You can be broken and still be chosen. You can feel completely alone and still have purpose.

A voice inside whispered: “Don’t do it. Not like this.”

That voice saved me and I’ve been listening to it ever since and from that moment on, I vowed to never abandon myself again.

 

2. The world will try to shrink you. Don’t let it. Your calling is bigger than your comfort.

I put myself through college. Two degrees. Worked full-time.

Then I applied to one of the top business schools in the world—because someone told me, “Think small, stay small. Think big, change the world.” It was at that point I stopped asking for permission to dream big.

 

3. Success doesn’t mean you’re fulfilled.

I built global brands at Procter & Gamble and Johnson & Johnson.

I had the title. The paycheck. The boardroom.

But I also had a sinking feeling that something was wrong because these companies weren’t built to heal people. They were built to sell to them. And the deeper I went, the clearer it became: most companies don’t care.

Not about people. Not about real health. Just profits.

 

4. Even good ideas can be poisoned by greed.

Network marketing gave me hope. Finally, a way to connect and educate, to really serve.

I helped Herbalife and ViSalus explode in growth.

But behind the scenes, I saw the same old story: hype over honesty. Profits over people.

 

5. Sometimes, the best solution is to start fresh—with different shoes.

A therapist once told me:

"You can keep wearing those old, worn-out shoes from your past… or you can choose new ones and walk into your future."

That stuck with me. I started lacing up.

 

6. If what you need doesn’t exist, create it. That’s what I did, I built what I wish existed.

I started Jump To Health to be the company I needed back then. A company rooted in honesty, integrity, science and service.

● One with products backed by nutritionists, not gimmicks.

● A compensation plan that doesn’t trick you.

● A mission that lifts people up, not locks them in.

Health. Wealth. Living. Giving.

That’s our core. That’s our promise.

 

I built this company for people who feel like they’re meant for more… but haven’t had a place that felt like home yet.

The woman who’s been told to stay small.

The man who’s tired of choosing between his health and his paycheck.

The parent who wants more time, more energy, more meaning.

The dreamer who knows deep down… they were meant for more.

If you’ve ever felt broken, behind, or stuck in a system that wasn’tbuilt for you, I see you. If that’s you—welcome home.
