#8 - Jess & Alex - Got Scammed in Mexico
In today's episode #8 of Bizpirations, we're journeying into the heart of the jungle with the founders of the Jungle Sol Collection, Alex and Jess, whose inspiring story will take us from the serene beaches of Costa Rica to the indigenous tribes that illuminate their brand's ethos.
Join us as we uncover the significance behind every hand-drawn pattern, every interaction with the Borucan tribe, and every bikini made from recycled materials. Their story isn't just about creating a brand; it's about sustaining employment, educating others, and building a business rooted in deep values and social responsibility.
