In this episode host Rea Hailley continues her series called "five questions and one wild story fempreneurs to watch for". Rea sits down with the unstoppable Bibiana Cala—an anthropologist, serial entrepreneur, and champion of the Circular Economy Club of Calgary. Bibiana challenges us to look beyond the convenience of modern consumerism and understand how every purchase connects to a global ecosystem. From the unintended consequences of clothing donations to the philosophy of the "donut economy," she offers a compelling roadmap for a more sustainable future. But this conversation goes deeper than just business and sustainability; Bibiana opens up vulnerably about her journey with ADHD and depression, revealing how she learned to embrace her strengths as a visionary and delegate the rest. Tune in to hear how focusing on changing "your own small corner" can have a massive ripple effect, and stick around for a truly wild story about how she manifested an international move to Norway in less than a week!

The planet has been here... millions, billions of years... The universe is going to be here even without us.""I know some people say, 'You're not going to change the world.' It doesn't matter. If I can change a little bit the corner I am, that's enough.""Just think twice when you're going to buy something. Say, 'Okay, can I find this secondhand? Can I do, maybe I have something at home I can reuse? Can I ask someone if they have it? Do I really need this or I want it?'... That actually makes a difference."
