Jeff Shardell of Humble Brands talks sustainability and having the right people in the right seats

The Makers Gonna Make Show

Welcome to the Makers Gonna Make Show where Julie Bee interviews makers about their brand's story and the behind-the-scenes of operating their business.

In the week’s episode, Julie has a conversation with the founder of Humble Brands, Jeff Shardell. Stressed and overworked in his tech job, Humble Brands founder Jeff Shardell began rethinking his whole life—right down to the products he put on his body. When he learned that the deodorant he used every day was filled with harmful chemicals, he quickly switched to all-natural. Determined to find a better, simpler solution, Jeff began experimenting with ingredients in his kitchen. His personal mission marked the birth of Humble Brands.
