Today’s guest is romantic visual artist, pioneer, and unconventional designer Jeff Garner who is leading the evolution of sustainable fashion and changing our perception of luxury. Born in the Civil War town of Franklin, Tennessee, and raised on a horse farm, Garner grew up with a connectedness to nature and a peaceful understanding of the world. His fashion label, Prophetic was born when he decided to combine his love for his surroundings with his artistic desires. Jeff’s ultimate vision is to bring awareness to the toxins found in commercial synthetic fashion and the health implications to the human body to allow everyone informed choice when it comes to what they put on their bodies. We’ll dive deep into Jeff’s journey in the fashion industry, the hidden toxins that we put on our bodies every single day, what you can do to live a more sustainable and natural life, and so much more.
