My Interview with Canvas Rebel – Sharing the Story Behind Amazonian Treasures

A few months ago, I had the privilege of being featured on CanvasRebel, where I shared my journey, the heart behind Amazonian Treasures, and the values that guide my work.

In the interview, I shared insights on:
🌱 How Amazonian Treasures was born – The roots of my passion for nature, sustainability, and supporting Indigenous, Riverside and Independent artisans.
💪 The challenges of being an entrepreneur – From starting out to navigating the complexities of creating a business that’s both impactful and sustainable.
🌿 The importance of fair trade and ethical sourcing – Why we buy directly from artisans, allowing them to set their own prices.
🌍 Our commitment to cultural preservation – How we bridge continents and honor the stories and traditions of the Amazon and beyond.

It was an incredible experience to share my story, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to highlight the artisans and traditions behind our jewelry.
