This week we chatted with Carly Burson, Founder and CEO of Tribe Alive. Founded in 2014, Tribe Alive grew from an eight-women team to a team now of over 325 artisans. It initially began as a way to economically and socially empower women who are negatively impacted by gender inequality. Tribe Alive has four core values: built by women, safe and meaningful work environments, designed to last, and environmental consciousness. The goal has always been to create minimalistic, eco-friendly items of clothing that can be worn for years. She went into depth on the supply chain, importance of paying a living wage, and more.
