  <title>Theresa VanderMeer: Activist Entrepreneur</title>
  <description>In this episode I talk to Theresa VanderMeer.&amp;amp;nbsp; She is the founder of Work+Shelter. An ethical factory in India that employs women in need.&amp;amp;nbsp; While this is now her full-time job, she started Work+Shelter as her passion project / side hustle 7 ½ years ago.&amp;amp;nbsp; They now employ almost 40 women!&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;   I was so impressed with Theresa for her vision and persistence.&amp;amp;nbsp; She believes business can be a vehicle for good and is actively working to make that true within her company.&amp;amp;nbsp; She is truly an Activist Entrepreneur.&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;   But as you can imagine, she has faced challenges along the way. It was so interesting to hear her journey and how she handled the ups and downs.&amp;amp;nbsp; She shares some helpful thoughts on how to be a conscious consumer, which I found really useful.   And we talk about how she takes care of herself in order to prevent burnout and the pull to be a work-a-holic. She has some great resources to share!&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; To learn more about this episode and any resources mentioned, please see the show notes.
