In a time where Print Magazines are in decline, Ruth and her team have continued to build a great Faith based Fashion Magazine called Magnify.

Tune into this episode to learn how each little step has lead to where she is now, how important it is to pivot (my fav word) and the power of letting go.

Alice Ojeda is such a breath of fresh air and it was amazing to learn so much about how we can do our part in creating a better environment. I felt so inspired to truly make an impact and I hope you feel the same way!

About Authentic House 
Authentic House is for people who want to change their lives to be in line with their values, by reducing their environmental impact in a way that’s positive and long-term. The inspiration for Authentic House came from seeing a simple fuzzy washing up brush made of coconut fibres. It was beautiful, practical and such an obvious alternative to a plastic brush. Alice found more small products like this and realised that eco-friendly living is easier than people think. A change can begin with the smallest step. She launched an eco-friendly subscription service to make this lifestyle change effortless for people, and to help them find ethical products and makers that really did match their values.

Meeting Abena Poku Awua reminded me that there is a business in everything. You just have to follow your gut and passion. I hope you feel inspired to make a difference in this world after this episode. 

About The Legacy Marketplace: 
The Legacy Marketplace aims to solve two problems: friction in the event planning process and increasing attention to reduce the environmental impact of our lives. The Legacy Marketplace aims to help businesses and consumers take relevant and impactful action on acting against climate change. It removes the friction in event planning, incentivising sustainable events that have minimal impact on the environment and that act as a catalyst for positive social change. Abena has worked in the sustainability sector for 15 years, her lightbulb moment came in 2016. She was frequently expected to organise events for my clients outside of my main responsibilities. She was also juggling a demanding job with trying to arrange various special occasions for my friends and family. The problem was there was not one place that you could go to compare the options and book there and then..
