Spirit of 608: Fashion, Entrepreneurship, Sustainability + Tech


Jun 20, 2019

With the recent announcement of The Real Real filing for IPO, it's no question that secondhand fashion is having a serious moment. But for many of us, it's been more than a thing for more than a little while. In fact, for many listening, shopping secondhand and reveling in thrift store and vintage finds is a way of life. It is for me, and it's both that and a way of business for this week's guest, the founder of a Philadelphia startup curating subscription boxes of like-new secondhand clothing.

Meet this week's guest, Liz Funk, Founder of And We Evolve.
