Meet Em, the passionate founder of Eadiechops, an organic headwear company that is making a difference in the lives of those struggling with hair loss.
Eadiechops, which started in 2017, specialises in drawing and printing their own fabric designs, with a focus on supporting and empowering individuals through their hair loss journey.
Em's journey with Eadiechops began after the birth of her daughter, Eadie, when she realised that she didn't want to go back to her uninspiring 9 to 5 job. Starting with creating baby turbans, the business evolved when Em's close friend Claire was diagnosed with breast cancer. This experience deepened Em's commitment to creating beautiful headwear options for people facing hair loss challenges.
Running Eadiechops full-time, Em finds joy in being there for her daughter as she grows, and in empowering individuals through their hair loss journey. However, she notes that wearing multiple hats in the business, from social media management to creating and making products, can be a juggling act.
Driven by a desire to leave behind a better world for future generations, Em decided to adopt more eco-conscious business practices. While sourcing sustainable materials presented challenges due to the overwhelming amount of information available, her first step towards sustainability was with eco-friendly packaging. Partnering with Simplelifeco, Eadiechops now uses environmentally friendly paper mailers, board-backed envelopes, and extra-large paper sacks.
Looking ahead, Em's goal for Eadiechops is simple - world domination! She hopes to reach as many people as possible and let them know that Eadiechops is here to support them on their hair loss journey.
When asked for advice for aspiring entrepreneurs, Em encourages them to simply make it happen. "Do it anyway. Do it scared, do it on a budget, do it on the side. Just do it and try," she advises. And with that positive attitude and determination, it's clear that Eadiechops will continue to make a difference in the lives of many.
Em invites us all to spread joy in our own way. Visit @eadiechops on social media and https://eadiechops.com/ to embark on a journey of creativity, inspiration, and eco-conscious artistry with Em and her community.
