Our friends at Bella Kinesis are starting a new campaign called “Give it Another Go” focused on encouraging women who have been discouraged by early life attempts at sportiness in school to try again…to give it another go! I can relate to this - in high school I told myself I was terrible at basketball but recently played a game just for fun and had a blast! We put so much pressure on ourselves as young people to be the best or be talented right away when having fun and being healthy should be the focus! Bella Kinesis are having a... Get the full story

5 Things I Wish I Had Known Before I Started a Sustainable Business | By Natalie Oldroyd

I also believed you could apply ethical principles while still producing something as good as any other brand. Be ethical, but don’t stand solely on ethical principles. That was my mission.
