  • Using Our Clothing Sustainably w/ Mona Fang

    Welcome to the Do Good Podcast. Where our goal is to align entrepreneurs and creatives of all kinds: in business, the arts, technology, social impact and so much more to benefit from the creative sparks of our diversity & feel a shared-mission and shared-enthusiasm towards making the world a better and more interesting place. 

    This is @nonstop.matt ’s conversation with Mona Fang, founder of Karma Trade, aspiring rocket engineer, and yoga instructor. We mainly talked about the problem today with fast fashion and our linear economies that supports it, discussed how we can all use our clothing more sustainably to support circular economies. BUT! We also got into stuff like space trash, and even the truth about yoga. It was awesome.

    Today I got the chance to talk to Alex Deigo aka Caviler Management. Caviler manages a handful of young up & coming independent hip-hop artists in Chicago, pouring his heart and soul into thriving alongside them as if they were his own family. Often putting his own out-of-pocket cash into pushing artists forward and helping give them opportunities from gas money to studio time to promotions.
