So many of us think an “adventurous” life has to look impressive, or wildly different from everyone else’s. But sometimes adventure is in the house you finally bought after saving for it, the life change you did not plan for, the career shift that scares you, or the path that only makes sense when you’ve finished the hike.

Hard cider is a lot more than “grown-up apple juice,” it’s as approachable as beer, but nuanced like wine. In this week’s episode, Lara Worm at Bivouac Ciderworks (North Park, San Diego) explained that cider is made by fermenting apple juice. Beer starts with grain, wine starts with grapes, and cider starts with apples or pears, which is why the process is actually closer to winemaking than brewing! That is why cider can be crisp, dry, tannic, fruity, complex, food-friendly, and naturally gluten-free.

A homicide prosecutor, a craft cider company, and building a San Diego space that feels like an outdoor adventure lodge, Lara Worm’s path to Bivouac Ciderworks is anything but predictable. In this episode of More Precious Than Rubies, I visited Bivouac Ciderworks in North Park, San Diego, to talk with co-founder and CEO Lara Worm about building a women-powered cider brand, creating a community-centered hospitality space, and teaching people that cider is so much more than an alternative to beer. Lara shares how her background in restaurants and homicide prosecution shaped her leadership, what cider actually is, and why Bivouac’s SoCal approach to cider is designed to be approachable, and rooted in community.

While interviewing this week’s guest Lara Worm, I had to get an answer to the question most people ask her: what does Bivouac mean? Turns out, the name says a lot about her cider brand: outdoor-inspired, a little unconventional, rooted in San Diego, and built around the idea that adventure does not always have to be outdoors.

Dr. Ivy Colbert with Empower Physical Therapy described the core like a canister: your diaphragm at the top, your pelvic floor at the bottom, and your abdominal and back muscles around the sides. So when you breathe, move, lift, exercise, or even hold tension in your jaw and shoulders, your pelvic floor can be part of that bigger picture.
