E40. Marissa Gochar of Reefer Wax: Sustainable Hemp-Based Surf Wax

The ocean is changing. Surfers are the first in line to notice that as we spent most of our time enjoying its magnificent waves. Us surfers should also be the first ones to take action in healing it so that the next generation gets to enjoy it, too.

In this episode, we have the CEO and Founder of Reefer Wax, Marissa Gochar, tell us her journey of being an entrepreneur, her mission of choosing regenerative products, and trying to make products that will undo some of the damage due to climate change. She shares how they make their hemp-based wax and how it can help put essential minerals needed by corals and shellfish back into the ocean.

This episode is filled with lessons that both entrepreneurs and consumers need to hear.

About Reefer Wax:

Reefer Wax is a hemp-based surf wax company with a mission to regenerate our lost coral reef population. They utilize byproducts from industrial hemp production once thought to be unusable waste, revolutionizing the surf wax industry with simple and traceable organic ingredients. Their wax puts essential minerals back into our oceans to reverse coral bleaching and degeneration. As an aspiring B Corp, they are building a responsible, sustainable company alongside other forward-thinking companies and research institutions while prioritizing a thriving eco-system for future generations over profit margins and gain.
