I’m 10 years into building my business and looking around, I see that the parts of it I love have been forged in the fiery furnace of the flaming dumpster.
I wish my business had been steady growth from the beginning, without the bumps and delays. But because of them, I feel that what I’m building is bigger than me.

A zero waste life means respecting the parts of your story that you hate. Coming to see the lowest moments in a new light. I think that’s the way to create something BIGGER than just yourself.
