Our little community is about to pass a significant milestone; numbering 1000 strong. To celebrate that fact, and to say thank you for your support, we will be announcing some giveaways next week (you heard it here first!). Be sure to follow our Twitter and TikTok so you don’t miss our announcement. Much to cover, so let’s dive in!

What's happening
Interviews: This month we published two reviews. The first was AMR 006 with Zero Co director & founder Mike Smith, who spoke with us about how (and why) he started a home cleaning and body care company focused on un-trashing the planet. Mike spoke at length about his inspiration and ethos, and how Zero Co is on a mission to make sustainability fun and accessible. Next up was AMR 007 with Wolven founder Kiran Jade. The company has a unique take on activewear, blending Eastern aesthetics and intricate, vibrant patterns that are like nothing else on the market. Wolven’s commitment to sustainability is seen right across the board, from using recycled fabrics to being powered by renewable electricity.

Charlie says: How do you know your own strength if you never push yourself? For instance, some of us coast on talent, unaware of our true greatness that could be achieved through constructive feedback. It got us this far, so why push ourselves and risk a performative calamity? Others fall into the category of never trying and thus ‘avoiding’ failure and disappointment. Whilst these protective measures can work well in the short term, we end up missing out on living as our best selves, never knowing our actual capacity or abilities. Choose strength and authenticity. 💪
