“In order to shift culture to a more equitable place, we have to build better companies from the ground up. After twenty years of being gas-lit by Corporate America, I realized trying to fix something from the inside is a Sisyphean task. So, I set out to build companies that are grounded in treating people the way I’d wanted to be treated.”

“Redefine growth and “making it”. We all have been taught to Go big or go home. Why? Patriarchy and capitalism. What about Stay small and stay in the game? As a social enterprise, you can’t default to capitalism growth at all costs. If you say you are building businesses that value People and Planet over Profit, how can getting big fast ensure you are protecting the people and planet? It can’t.”
