Show Notes

Erik shares his incredible journey—from planning a traditional business career to being compelled into action after meeting survivors of sex trafficking. Realizing that job creation is key in preventing exploitation, he left the nonprofit world to launch a coconut-based business that not only provides sustainable jobs but also produces high-quality, antioxidant-rich coconut oil straight from the source.

If you’re an entrepreneur looking for purpose, a business owner wanting to make a difference, or just curious about how commerce and social good intersect, this episode is for you!
