The Athlete Mentality Makes for Great Coffee: A Conversation with Kim Anderson + Aaron Olson, Co-founders of our Favorite Coffee shop
Kim Anderson + Aaron Olson are husband and wife owners of Handlebar — a cafe and micro-roastery here in Santa Barbara, CA.
In this episode, episode 016, Pia interviewed Kim Anderson and Aaron Olson. Pia's personal favorite coffee shop, a CWco. staple, and a growing client favorite.
Pia caught them off guard by asking them to step out of their comfort zone to answer all the questions, and they delivered. What struck Pia the most is how genuinely humble, committed, and driven they are — it’s no wonder their coffee shop and micro-roastery is so successful.
In this conversation, we will talk about two things that Handlebar is know for: really, really good coffee…and operational excellence. We talk about coffee as a commodity, how mediocrity drives most of the world, and how the athlete’s mindset contributes to good business.
