Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

From Tequila to Tween Skincare - Can these Businesses be a Force for Good?
Q: How did your path lead you to sustainability and ultimately to founding Mijenta Tequila and Bare la Terre?
Elise describes moving from design into sustainability after motherhood, going back to school at Harvard, and choosing suppliers and processes that reduce pesticides, use recycled materials, and create local, purpose-driven brands from the ground up.
Could I date someone who didn't believe in Climate Change?
Q: Ethical or questionable: a one night stand with somebody who you know is a bad person but is super hot?
It's a gray area; could be ethical if not promoting harmful behavior, but many would label it questionable given the potential impact and ethics of engaging with someone who embodies harmful traits.
