Podcast Summary

Although COVID-19 is the villain to Washington D.C.-based Soupergirl's story, Co-founder Sara Polon and her mother, Marilyn, are no damsels in distress. In fact, the duo changed their business model literally overnight to accommodate social-distancing requirements and focus on the brand's delivery and online business. The women are still fighting, according to Polon, who joins Cherryh Cansler, editor of Fast Casual, on this week's episode of "Navigating Covid-19."

Polon not only chats about the chain's strategy regarding the pandemic, but also about her appearance on "Shark Tank," her future plans for the business and what it's like to work with your mom.

Bradley Cooper, a contributing editor, also shares the week's coronavirus-related news.
