Imagine turning a love for dessert into a thriving business while battling personal demons. That’s exactly what Kelsey Witherow did. In this episode of 'Beyond the Bars', Kelsey, the founder of Doughp, opens up about her journey from addiction to recovery and how it led her to the Shark Tank stage. Raised in Sacramento, California, Kelsey always had a sweet tooth and a passion for making people happy with her wild confections.

Despite excelling in her career in high-tech product marketing, Kelsey felt unfulfilled and lost her love for baking.

This newfound clarity led her to start Doughp, a company that not only makes delicious treats but also promotes a booze-free environment.
Her appearance on Shark Tank was a pivotal moment, but it’s her journey to sobriety that truly transformed her life. Kelsey’s candid reflections and wisdom offer hope and inspiration for anyone facing similar struggles. Tune in to hear how she turned her life around and built a business that brings joy to others.
