492: How to become Unbreakable with Bonnie Hewitt

In this episode of The Remote CEO Show, I had the pleasure to interview Bonnie Hewitt. Bonnie has used the pandemic as a chance to re-invent her business, which began as an Etsy shop, PoshNotions selling T-shirts, pillows and other items with inspirational messages. Then the pandemic struck, and Hewitt taught herself how to sew, so she could make. Then, the pandemic continued, and things, such as fabric and elastic, were hard to come by. That’s when Hewitt, 42, had an ‘ah ha’ moment. Instead of making new items, she uses junk to make things like totes, jackets and home decor. The idea caught the attention of entrepreneur and best-selling author David Meltzer, who is hosting a new business competition show on Bloomberg TV, 2 Minute Drill. During the show, five entrepreneurs get 120 seconds to pitch their business. Hewitt is a finalist for the third episode, which airs at 11:30 p.m. Friday. It will be rebroadcast on Amazon Video. The winner gets $50,000 in cash and prizes.
