In this heartfelt episode of Thanks for Doing That, Heather chats with the inspiring husband-and-wife team, Marissa and Chris, the founders of the Nashville Blanket Project. From their cozy Airbnb hosting experience to the mission-driven journey of creating beautiful blankets that give back, their story is one of compassion and community. Learn how they turned a simple idea into a thriving social enterprise that donates a blanket for every one sold (12,000 to date!), providing warmth and comfort to those in need across Nashville.

Marissa and Chris share:

• The origins of the Nashville Blanket Project and its evolution into Faircloth
• How they balance family life and running a business together
• The impact of community partnerships and the power of giving back
• Insights into their creative process for designing unique, cozy blankets
• Exciting plans for expanding their offerings and mission in the future

Join us for a conversation that celebrates the spirit of giving, creativity, and the importance of community support. Don’t miss out on the chance to keep Nashville cozy!
