In this episode of The Do Good Business Podcast, we’re learning the dirt on the laundry industry as Sarah chats with Bernard and Angie, founders of Kind Laundry. As both business and life partners of more than 10 years, they are lucky to share the same values in life. These shared values are how they stay strong as a couple and what drives them as business partners. They are committed to living as sustainably as possible, and that includes building a company that hosts the same values.
