Episode 8: The Reality of Cheap Labour, with Leanne Savage, Founder of Acala Stem
Update: 2022-05-20
Description
In this episode, Charli chats with Leanne Savage, Founder of wellness brand, Acala Stem.
Leanne's journey started in Cambodia a decade ago, where coming face-to-face with the reality of poverty ignited her desire to do something to change the world - even if it was just one person's world.

Leanne and Charli also discuss:
- Why it pays to be flexible when you are starting a business, and why you shouldn't necessarily get locked into your very first idea.
- How Lotus Silk might just be the most eco-friendly fabric ever discovered.
- Why it’s so important to Leanne to put her worker’s first and ensure their wellbeing, and how she does that through her business.
- The reality of cheap labour that we don’t see.
- How personal and professional purpose are - or should be - interlinked if you are to realise success.
- How mistakes can happen for a reason... and might just lead to your best selling product.
- We even touched on how universal magic (or perhaps, inner intuition?) sometimes seems to just guide our business - and personal - decisions, and it feels like we are just along for the ride.
