#592 What happens when a frustrated mom turns a bad product review experience into a nationally recognized consumer trust brand? In this episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with Sharon Vinderine, founder of Parent Tested Parent Approved (PTPA), to unpack how she built one of North America’s most respected consumer certification programs. Sharon shares how her journey began on tech rooftops, evolved into a game-changing product testing model, and led to over 300 TV appearances including Rachel Ray and Steve Harvey. You’ll hear how she grew a quarter-million tester network, fought against the rise of “awards-washing,” and built a high-integrity business that helps brands earn real trust and families make smarter purchases!
