In this heartfelt episode of The Brown Box, we sit down with Nuryanee Anisah, founder of Commenhers, a Singapore-based social enterprise that transforms discarded textiles into meaningful products.

Inspired by her father’s entrepreneurial drive and her mother’s compassion, Yanee shares how Commenhers supports marginalised women while championing sustainability.

We talk about:

• Her love for secondhand objects and the stories they carry

• Why slowing down is part of sustainability

• The emotional cost of being misunderstood as a dyslexic child

• How her father’s music carried Malay poetry all the way to the White House

• What Rana Plaza taught her about fast fashion and responsibility

• And why care must be central to how we build, work, and live

If you care about sustainability, social impact, or simply finding beauty in what’s been overlooked, this one’s for you.
