In this episode, we are joined by sisters Aidee and Monica San Miguel, founders of VOLVERde, an online marketplace of carefully curated, beautiful, effective, low-waste products for your body and home sourced from a variety of responsible brands.

The conversation delves deep into the importance of sustainability, especially within the Latine community. Monica and Aidee share their personal backgrounds, their sustainable practices rooted in the traditions of their abuelita, and the motivations behind launching VOLVERde. They also discuss the impact of consumer culture on traditional practices, how they are instilling sustainable habits in their children, and the significance of reconnecting with one's roots. 

The episode highlights the importance of familial storytelling and preserving cultural traditions for future generations.

In This Episode, You’ll Hear:

  • The long-held sustainable cultural traditions that inspired VOLVERde and the significance behind these traditions
  • Why Latinos are unconsciously environmentalists
  • How one can reclaim the sustainable traditions our abuelitas taught us
  • How we can teach our children about becoming responsible citizens of our planet
