Rambling with Ray is the audio home for a story about interconnectedness, beginning with The Venus Guide.
The Venus Guide is an interview-led travel magazine exploring experience, taste, and atmosphere through the lens of brand founders and cultural creatives.
A place of pleasure.
Where destinations of delight become corners of community.
& remember: If the vibe’s not right, it’s not in The Venus Guide.
Take a seat & tune in.
This is Edition 6 of The Venus Guide with founder of Casa Figuera Alena Dentler. Alena and I connected over the shared metaphor of seeing our own brands as houses with many rooms that are all interconnected. Some other things we have in common is our background in Textile Engineering and our love for Indigo. In this episode, Alena takes us on a tour, not only through her Casa, but also on her journey how she started building it. From Bali to Berlin and back again, the world is her Oyster. or should I say, her Fig Tree?!
We dive into what the art of natural dying has in common with launching a brand and how presence & play informs the process of growth. We talk about the difference between craftsmanship and fashion as an industry and how individuality forms community.
Think 50 shades of indigo, the softness of a silk dress and the slow sweetness of the Fig tree.
The Venus Guide is an exploration of a new way of being in the world. Traveling through the senses. Lean in, listen up & enjoy :)
