Episode 6: Vision, Regeneration, and Social Entrepreneurship (ft: Madeleine Shaw)

On this show, Madeleine Shaw discusses the benefits of social entrepreneurship versus the pressures of startup culture, and the expected speed of financial growth. She discusses the importance of vision and regenerative practices in her work. I loved talking to her about menstrual health equity and hearing about her role in our progress. I’ve always been shy about talking about menstruation publicly, but I loved how warm and easy Madeleine made the conversation.

Her book, “The Greater Good, Social Entrepreneurship for Everyday People Who Want to Change the World” was a great read. It was compelling, clear and inspiring. It made me want to hone my vision!

Here is more about Madeleine:

Madeleine Shaw (she/her) is a feminist entrepreneur and writer based on unceded Coast Salish territory (Vancouver BC). She is best known as the co-founder of Aisle (formerly Lunapads), one of the first groundbreaking ventures in the world to commercialize reusable menstrual products. In her first book, The Greater Good: Social Entrepreneurship for Everyday People Who Want to Change the World, she offers encouraging tips and reflections for aspiring impact-based entrepreneurs. She is passionate about creatively deploying the tools of business in service of social change, drawing inspiration from natural growth patterns as ways to build regenerative organizations, and neo-sobriety culture and discourse.

I really hope you loved this conversation as much as I did!
