Karissa Bodnar launched Thrive Causemetics, a vegan direct-to-consumer cosmetics brand in 2015 with the mission of “Bigger than Beauty.” She began her career as a makeup artist and product developer/cosmetic chemist prior to starting Thrive Causemetics and now Bigger Than Beauty Skincare. Thrive Causemetics® and Bigger Than Beauty® Skincare exist to empower their customers, employees, and Giving Partners to live their most confident life. Thrive Causemetics has donated over $135 million in products and funds to over 500 nonprofit Giving Partners around the world. Their Giving Partners help communities enduring battles with cancer, emerging from homelessness, surviving domestic abuse, fighting for racial and social justice, pursuing education, supporting LGBTQ+ causes, uplifting underserved marginalized youth, and assisting veterans. Acknowledging her amazing work and success, Karissa has been named in Forbes’ 30 Under 30, Forbes’ America's Richest Self-Made Women, Marie Claire’s Most Powerful Women, and Inc.’s Badass Female Founders list.


We absolutely loved having Karissa live in studio for this podcast! We are utterly inspired by how and why Karissa started this brand and what she's accomplished and continues to do with the Thrive and their 500+ giving partners. Thrive is self-funded and has grown into one of the most impactful philanthropic organizations around. If you are an entrepreneur, this episode is a must listen.
