“We’re just another rung on that ladder, reaching the top for self actualizations of our artists to have their own store, their own promotions and their own culture here, benefiting them and having their voices shared and their benefits received for what they do.”

“I just like to always say we’re capable of doing things, we’re capable of making good business decisions. I’m really grateful for where I’m at.”

“We’re incorporating our Navajo teachings into everything we do. Coding, programming, application, even customer service.”

“What I want to do is make it so much easier for artists to just focus on what they do best, which is make and create. Our platform will handle a lot of the backend.”

Change Labs co-founders, Heather Fleming and Jessica Stago, share their story of perseverance in their quest to create physical infrastructure on the Navajo Nation to support small business owners and artisans.
