On this episode of The Kara Goldin Show, I’m joined by Meghan Luck, Founder and CEO of Fable Fish Co., the Alaska-born seafood brand that’s reimagining what snacking can look—and taste—like. Meghan’s journey begins on her family’s fishing boats in Alaska, where she developed a deep connection to nature and the wild bounty of the ocean. After a decade working with global brands in New York, she returned to her roots with a clear mission: bring responsibly sourced, nutrient-rich seafood snacks to the modern consumer.
Fable Fish Co. is best known for its wild sockeye salmon jerky, crafted from the world’s largest sustainable wild salmon fishery in Bristol Bay, Alaska. But this is more than just jerky—it’s about honoring tradition, protecting ecosystems, and reconnecting people to the natural world through food.
In our conversation, Meghan shares what it was like to build a brand that blends heritage and innovation, how she educates consumers on traceability and nutrient density, and why she believes the future of food is as much about story as it is about sourcing. We also dive into her experience going from D1 Harvard athlete to brand strategist to purpose-driven founder, and what’s next for this ambitious seafood startup.
Whether you’re passionate about clean food, building a values-driven business, or just love a great founder story—you’ll want to listen to this one. Now on The Kara Goldin Show.
