Things You Don’t Want To Miss:

Meet Today’s Guest.

  • 1:22 – Jane Mosbacher Morris is Founder and CEO of TO THE MARKET. She’s also the author of the newly released book, Buy The Change You Want To See. TO THE MARKET connects consumers and businesses to ethically made products from around the world. It partners with businesses that offer a safe work environment for women who have been exploited in the sex trade or who are vulnerable to human trafficking.

The Jane 101.

  • 3:29 – Jane shares her belief that every person has a purpose as well as her passion for promoting the dignity of work. Her career started in the U.S. Department Of State, and she spent a lot of time around people who lacked control over their own destiny. She wanted to create opportunity for these individuals, and she discusses how the private sector was the best way to do that.

Looking For Opportunities.  

  • 7:00 -Working for the Department Of State and the McCain Institute provided Jane with several unique glimpses into life in the developing world. She found opportunities to create value in the market.

Starting TO THE MARKET. 

  • 12:06 – The vision was to connect talented makers around the world who are overlooked and vulnerable with consumers fueled by tremendous buying power. Jane shares the beginnings and discusses how TO THE MARKET built supply chains with organizations that employed individuals in an ethical way.  She wanted to change the manufacturing paradigm.

Money Leads To Choices. 

  • 16:01 – It’s not about becoming rich. Money is simply a tool, but it allows you to achieve financial freedom, and it can lends itself to creating resources. Financial aid clearly plays an important role in global development. However, once people’s basic needs are met, people prefer to have the ability to earn their own way. When you’re constantly receiving, you don’t really have the ability to make your own choices.

Growth Is Slow. 

  • 20:23 – There’s been a lot of talk surrounding the need to purchase ethically, but behavioral change takes time. Jane shares how she discovered the importance of continuing to pursue people who say they want to shift their buying habits.

Highlighting Jane’s New Book. 

  • 25:46 – Buy The Change You Want To See debuted at the end of January. It promotes the idea that as buyers, we have purchasing power. If we harness that purchasing power, we can positively impact the lives of others.

How Your Purchases Impact Others. 

  • 28:20 – We discuss how our purchasing power can affect the lives of trafficking survivors and others living in poverty. Customer loyalty has kept Mom and Pop shops open for years. If you commit to buying locally, and supporting these businesses, your purchases enable business owners to stay open, generate revenue, and impact the lives of others with their hires .

Getting To Know Our Guest:

  • 33:24 – We take a moment to get to know Jane and discover her go-to song at a Karaoke night. She’ll also share her memories of watching America’s favorite family as a kid.

A Memorable Moment:

These amazing men and women don't want charity. The want opportunity. They want access to resources. They want money, so that they can make their own choices for their family. Click To Tweet

🎊 ONE WHOLE YEAR 🎉

My debut memoir, “If I Don’t Laugh, I’ll Cry” has been out in the world for one whole year today. Writing this book was hard and holy work, and it’s been such a joy to see how many of you have laughed, cried, and laughed till you cried.

Thank you for the support of this book. ❤️

If you’ve read it, would you do me a *huge* favor and leave a review on Amazon and Goodreads? And would you share the book with a friend or on social media? It would mean the world to me.

And if you haven’t picked up a copy or downloaded the audiobook yet, what are you waiting for? 😉

I often wonder if he’d be a red head like Amos or if he’d be musically gifted like Lilly.

Would he love snuggling or be a boy who only wanted hugs on his terms?

Would his eyes be brown like his dad’s or would he be covered in freckles?

What would his laugh sound like? Who would be his best friend? What would his favorite book be? Would he say Gen Alpha slang words like sigma and skibidi or would he love his mom too much to do that?

Would I be mommy or mama or mom to him?

So many questions I won’t get to answers to on this side of heaven. But I think about him today, just like every day, and I hope he’s getting a slice of strawberry cake for his heavenly birthday.

7 years. 🤍 #elijahtimothy
