Abundance in Love: Rebuilding a Life From Scratch | Mariquel Waingarten

Mariquel Waingarten co-founded Hickies, the no-tie shoelace brand now in over 50 countries, and built Argentina's first boutique hotel, Tailor Made Hotel, a four year TripAdvisor top performer. She's now the founder of Portal Bosque, a community built on a more conscious, human way of living. But it took losing both her parents before 25, and twenty years of running her life from fear, before she got there. In this conversation, Mariquel and Topaz talk about the "samurai" she became to survive, what her father's last words to her actually meant, and the ayahuasca journey where she finally gave that survival mode back and started building from love instead.
