#6: Marie Eckstein | Founder of Red Dirt Road


Listen Later

We could not be more excited to introduce you to the story and wisdom of Marie Eckstein.

Marie had a long corporate career that took her to the executive table of a large global chemical company until internal and external conditions shifted unexpectedly and wildly; resulting in a closure of that career. 

She shares candidly the sense of loss and her struggle to rediscover who she was beyond her job. 

This pivot led her to a period of exploration in which she remembered an important truth core to her passion; To Be A Voice For Those Who Don't Have One. 

You'll hear her talk about her journey to manifest that truth, her work to redefine herself as professional, and her leap to begin Red Dirt Road; a company that supports female entrepreneurs and makers in Cambodia. 

Red Dirt Road is a social enterprise intent on elevating women who then elevate communities. It is a story of the flywheel of abundance and opportunity. 

I highly recommend you check out Red Dirt Road. They are doing important work, and their products are adorable. http://www.red-dirt-road.org/

Their tag line; Change Lives, Shop Red Dirt Road, perfectly captures the impact you can have if you choose to support them. There is a wonderful short film on the home page that will inspire you.
