17:42 Outro

I think Grace is doing a great job providing a stepping stone option for those who would otherwise buy Gymshark or other unsustainable activewear brands. Tala is definitely a sustainability-minded option, and I'm sure she's been able to reach and inspire a huge audience to think about sustainability. For that, I love what she's done so far. In terms of how sustainable Tala is, I'd love to see more transparent reporting, some sort of recycling program to address circularity, and extended sizes for a truly inclusive brand! I know Tala is small so I'm excited to see how they progress in the future x
