Today, we’ll unravel the inspiring journey of Cindy Castro, the woman behind the fashion brand "Cindy Castro New York". Born and raised in Ecuador, Cindy was often overlooked – not fitting into the conventional beauty standards. She found solace in the world of fashion. Today, her brand is synonymous with activism, sustainability, and community.

In this episode Epicenter’s Community Reporter, Ambar Castillo, talks with Cindy about the challenges and triumphs of starting her business, and breaking barriers for immigrant women and sustainable fashion advocates alike.
