Suzanne on the Beyond Capital Podcast

Fashion Forward: Suzanne Lerner of Michael Stars

“Social impact was always in our DNA. We were like a mini B Corp: We cared about our employees, we cared about paying a living wage. We cared about paying their health insurance and sick days. We really were walking the walk," says Suzanne Lerner, co-founder and President of Michael Stars, an influential fashion brand based out of Los Angeles. "Looking at my investments, I wanted to start using my voice. It just can't be about only making money and investing in things you don't agree with."

In this week's episode of The Beyond Capital Fund Podcast, we speak with Suzanne about her passion for marrying profits with purpose through #socialimpact and empowering her employees. She is an activist, entrepreneur, and philanthropist, serving on several nonprofit boards including the ACLU of Southern California, the ERA Coalition and The Fund for Women’s Equality and the Ms. Foundation for Women.
