Check out an episode from earlier this year with Shawn Nelson from Lovesac!What if your wild idea turned into a $700 million business? In this episode, LoveSac founder and CEO Shawn Nelson shares how he went from building bean bags in his parents’ basement to winning Richard Branson’s Rebel Billionaire, and scaling an industry-disrupting furniture brand rooted in sustainability.Shawn opens up about the pivotal moments - near-failures, bold pivots, and the breakthrough behind his "Designed for Life" philosophy that's challenging throwaway culture and reshaping how we think about conscious consumption.Whether you're a founder, impact-driven entrepreneur, or believer in conscious capitalism, you’ll walk away inspired by Shawn’s raw insights on purpose-driven leadership, long-term thinking, and building a company that actually makes a difference.**If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?
