Devin: What is your superpower?
Matt: Turning passion into purpose.
Emerald Prairie is on a mission to revolutionize home care with products that are not only safe for people and pets but also environmentally beneficial. At the heart of its innovation is hypochlorous acid (HOCL), a powerful yet natural disinfectant that Matt Condon, Founder of Emerald Prairie, describes as “nature’s disinfectant.” In today’s episode, Matt shared how his company is challenging the status quo with products that are effective, safe, and eco-friendly.
HOCL isn’t new. In fact, it has been around since World War I when it was used to treat soldiers. “It is an incredibly powerful antibacterial disinfectant,” Matt explained. “It would be ubiquitous throughout the country and the world if not for the way the chemical industrial complex evolved.” Emerald Prairie has found a way to scale the production of HOCL, offering a solution that’s “made by your body” and safe enough to spray on your hands or even in your mouth.
What makes Emerald Prairie stand out isn’t just HOCL’s effectiveness; it’s the company’s commitment to transparency and environmental impact. “All of our ingredients are on every label—nothing hidden,” Matt said. He added that the products not only avoid harming the environment but actually benefit it. “The best thing that can happen to hypochlorous acid is it gets to the water system because it kills the biofilm.”
Emerald Prairie’s business is thriving. The company has seen a surge in subscriptions, which Matt described as resembling the “proverbial hockey stick.” This growth, he believes, reflects customer trust and satisfaction. Emerald Prairie’s solutions are produced in Kansas, reflecting the company’s commitment to local manufacturing.
To scale its impact and reach, Emerald Prairie is raising capital via a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder. This approach aligns with Matt’s mission to connect directly with customers and investors who share his vision.
Emerald Prairie isn’t just selling safe cleaning products; it’s starting a movement. By replacing toxic chemicals with solutions that are safe for families and the environment, Matt and his team are proving that you don’t have to compromise safety for effectiveness. This is your chance to join a revolution in home care—by supporting Emerald Prairie, you can help make the world a cleaner, safer place.

Matt Condon explained how Emerald Prairie’s products use hypochlorous acid to deliver safe, effective cleaning.
The company’s all-natural solutions are environmentally beneficial, improving ecosystems instead of harming them.
Emerald Prairie is scaling operations with local production and growing customer subscriptions rapidly.
Matt revealed his passion for building purpose-driven ventures that align with his values and mission.
The company is raising funds via regulated crowdfunding, inviting supporters to invest in its growth.
How to Develop Turning Passion Into Purpose As a Superpower
Matt Condon’s superpower is his ability to transform passion into purpose-driven business ventures. He explained, “I’ve been so fortunate in my career to go through…efforts where I wasn’t really focused on the sales revenue as much as doing something…that the world needed.” This approach, he shared, reflects a belief that “capitalism is the most powerful engine of good in the world.” For Matt, success comes from aligning his passions with businesses that create meaningful impact while maintaining financial viability.
Matt shared how his passion for solving real-world problems led him to create a network of clinics providing top-tier healthcare to workers like farmers, firefighters, and police officers. Drawing inspiration from his roots in a farming community, Matt realized that the quality of care available to professional athletes could and should be extended to laborers. He built clinics that offered advanced healthcare solutions, improving outcomes for countless individuals in physically demanding jobs. This venture not only succeeded financially but also changed lives, exemplifying how passion-driven businesses can create profound impact.
Tips for Developing This Superpower:
Identify Problems You’re Passionate About Solving: Focus on challenges that resonate with your values and experiences.
Take Calculated Risks: Embrace risk as part of the journey to create meaningful impact.
Build Around a Mission: Ensure your business aligns with a core purpose beyond profitability.
Engage Support Systems: Surround yourself with people who believe in your vision and can provide encouragement.
Stay Focused Amid Noise: Cut out distractions to concentrate on what truly matters.
By following Matt’s example and advice, you can make turning passion into purpose a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.
Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!
Guest Profile
Matthew (Matt) Condon (he/him):
Founder, Emerald Prairie Health
About Emerald Prairie Health: At Emerald Prairie Health, our mission began with a discovery—not of a new chemistry, but of how to finally unlock one that scientists have trusted for over a century. Despite its unmatched safety and proven performance, this powerful solution was kept on the sidelines—overlooked or suppressed by chemical giants who saw HOCl as a threat to their legacy products. We saw something different at EPH. Using our proprietary water purification process, we developed a way to produce this chemistry in its purest, most stable, and effective form—and bring it to market at scale. Today, we’re helping families protect their loved ones and lead the next generation of wellness—through cleaner, safer, and more sustainable alternatives for home and body.
