“It's okay to start something little, it doesn't have to be this big thing to begin with,” Co-founder of #GoKindly, Laura McConnell Conti
Episode description
Laura McConnell Conti is co-founder of #GoKindly, a high-quality bedding basics brand, BCorp, and social Enterprise making the world kinder by donating 50% of profits to women in need.
In this episode Laura shares why she built her business without knowing what product or brand would be the vessel, instead focusing on the operating model first…
You see, she knew what type of business she wanted to be, one with positive social and environmental impact at the core – and knew the product would reveal itself as she went along.
You’ll hear about why considering your social impact, in any business at any stage, is simply a must do.
Laura also shares her experience growing up in a fundamentalist community. She opens up in a way that is so generous to others who may have a history or present with this challenge, sharing how that experience, and her experience in a corporate environment that left much to be desired, has formed her into the strong, powerful, grounded and kind person she is today.
Laura leaves you feeling like everything is possible, like your voice and your work matters – because it does.
If you’re ready to feel empowered to truly own who you are in this world and make an impact with the work that you do, this chat is for you.
