EP211: Taking Responsibility in Sourcing to the Next Level with Meri Geraldine

I am so thrilled about this week’s guest, you guys! She’s the kind of woman who talks the talk and walks the walk. Before getting into jewelry, Meri Geraldine worked as a sustainability consultant. But after having her daughter, she wanted to be able to work from home. That’s how her jewelry company, Gardens of the Sun, got started. There aren’t enough conversations about building a sustainable brand in the jewelry industry. Meri is out to change that. Part of her company vision is to know every part of the supply chain, right down to the people mining and cutting the gems. She’s traveled all around the world to source her jewelry sustainably and has become a leader in the ethical jewelry movement. Today, she sat down with me to talk about how the everyday designer can be more conscious and responsible about their sourcing.
