What's an ecopreneur? This week, I'm talking with Erika Rodriguez, Founder of Nadi Marketing. After leaving her full-time job earlier this year, Erika was eager to start something new.

In today's episode, Erika and I discussed her entrepreneurship journey, some of the sustainable brands that she works with, and how to define "ecopreneur".
