When people and planet factor into the bottom line...
Part of the thrill of doing this job is talking to people who excite the heck out of me. These are the passionate and visionary ones who forge their own path and do what they love. They know their craft forward and backward. They are infectious.
A few weeks back I had the privilege of interviewing Joshua Kaiser, the founder of Rishi Tea, an organic and Fair Trade loose leaf tea company.
Who knew that tea could have you on the edge of your seat? Or as my sound engineer Sarah said as I walked out the studio, “Who knew that tea could be so damn interesting?”
Joshua is clearly a man who loves his work. That ignites the sleeping giant in all of us and equally important gets us fired up about healthier options to put into our body.
Listen to the interview and you'll know exactly what I mean:
And did I mention Josh is a political science grad? Me too. Bonus points. (smile)
We need to support business leaders like Joshua—those who factor people and planet into the bottom line. It’s why I have chosen to partner with Rishi Tea. You too can send a clear message that organic and fair trade and high quality is important to you—by voting with your wallet.
