Women's History Month is here and we can't think of a better guest than Kristine Rodriguez, Founder + CEO of GRL Collective. This female lead company is a Latina founded lifestyle brand for grls that give a f*ck - They donate 20% of their profits to fund girls education in India through their non-profit partners, The Sambhali Trust.

Kristine shares an in depth look into her company, including how the brand started, milestones, and how she has changed the narrative around women of color. She also discusses what it takes to be an entrepreneur, how to stay motivated, and gives us a glimpse into what it takes to create a successful small business.

Always a Bridesmaid Podcast will be donating 100% of all dollars raised during the month of March to Kristine's efforts in India. To donate you may Venmo @marissa-norys or you can do so directly through The Sambhali Trust page by visiting: www.sambhali-trust.org. 

GRL Collective hosts yearly volunteer trips to India, and will be resuming post COVID when it is safe to travel internationally again. To learn about their efforts please visit their website at www.grlcollective.com or through their social media platforms: @grlcollective & @heykristine16
