    “We talk about the statistics all the time… but what about the solutions?” Ebonie Garnett, founder of Born With Purpose, LLC, shares how being a doula is about more than just being an advocate for pregnant women. She’s an advocate for black women who are facing injustices in a broken healthcare system. A system that was created without their safety in mind. She is that safe space—and through her work and advocacy for clients—she’s helping deconstruct these unsafe systems. This is advocacy. This is activism.

    “Sometimes you’re on top. Stay humble. Sometimes you’ve hit a low. Stay hopeful.” Steven Izen, founder of Lokai, discusses the business of a balanced life, and why giving back is important. Lokai’s core creation is the Lokai bracelet. The white bead is infused with water from Mt Everest, the highest point on Earth. The black bead carries mud from the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth. The purchase of each bracelet gives $1 to the cause the bracelet is designed for, and to date, they have given over $8.5 million dollars to the various organizations they partner with, including the Alzheimer’s Association.
