80: Four ways I am approaching anti-capitalism in my business

Medium Well

There’s a lot of talk about anti-capitalist business in my communities, and while I have been embodying some of the principles for some time now, I built IMBY with anti-capitalism as a core value. In this episode, I break down four ways that I am approaching anti-capitalism in my business, with specific examples. Please note— I am not an expert on this topic! I am still learning and growing, and if there are things you’ve learned that you’d like to share or ways I can evolve my understanding of the topic, I am always open to feedback and conversation.

In this episode, I discuss:

• How I am approaching anti-capitalism as an entrepreneur with a small business

• How I define anti-capitalism (a work in progress!)

• Using a sliding scale for equity and accessibility

• How we focus on the collective

• Why we are transparent with our finances

Mentioned in this episode:

• Jennifer Patterson of Corpus Ritual’s sliding scale

• IMBY’s sliding scale details and transparency reports
