What happens when compassion meets entrepreneurship? Julie Colombino-Billingham, founder and CEO of Deux Mains and author of From Loss to Legacy shares what began as disaster relief work in Haiti and evolved into a global fair-trade luxury fashion company dedicated to creating dignified employment, ethical craftsmanship, and sustainable opportunity for Haitian artisans. Julie shares the remarkable journey that transformed personal purpose into a powerful business and social impact mission.
Julie explores the meaning of legacy, the challenges and rewards of building an ethical business in one of the world’s most complex environments, and how conscious consumer choices can help create positive change. She also discusses her memoir, From Loss to Legacy: How a Fashion Business Rose from Haiti’s Rubble, a deeply personal story of resilience, hope, and the transformative power of dignity and compassion.
In addition, viewers will learn about REBUILD globally, the nonprofit organization supported by the book’s proceeds, which works to break cycles of poverty through education and job training in Haiti. This uplifting and thought-provoking conversation is a powerful reminder that meaningful impact often begins with a single decision to serve others—and that true success is measured not only by what we build, but by the lives we help transform.
