Summary

“I want people to hear and know that you don’t have to be afraid of ruptures (in a relationship). When you rupture and you’re committed to repairing, what is built on the other side of that is actually more powerful, more intimate, and more committed.” We are continuing our Collaboration Over Competition series, and my guests today are no strangers to The Happy Hour.

On this episode, we talk about what that process and decision was like for them, being that their companies were each other’s competition in the ethical fashion space.
