On today's episode, I interviewed Maria about her journey! Maria was born in Casa Blanca, Morocco and a year later she moved to Italy where she began to embrace both cultures. She hopes to create a positive impact through her thoughts, feelings and experiences while exploring topics from culture, art to a bit of poetry! Other than that, she is a brand consultant, and freelance in digital marketing and content creation. She is also an ethical entrepreneur whose love for the ocean has inspired her to start her own sustainable luxury swimwear brand called Maari Eco-swim.

This conversation really helped me understand that no path is ever too smooth. Life's a game of trial and error that teaches you so much along the way. Maria’s story was one with personal and professional struggles as well, but she continued to remain positive and brainstorm ways in which she could add value! She knew she wanted to improve the entire system in the fashion industry but not adhere to it. AND this is when after learning and applying, she went a step further and successfully created HER own swimwear fabric out of fishing nets!

I absolutely loved getting Maria 's perspective on creating her business from scratch! I learned that it's important to think of ourselves as a possibility. We’re all on this planet to accomplish what we want and she believes that small actions day by day will eventually add to big changes! I can’t wait for you guys to listen to this success story!
