How does this make me feel? 

Angry because this is not morally right. It seems anything anybody creates or invents is not protected or respected anymore. Angry because I put my heart and soul into getting this product ethically produced. Angry because I spent 2 months battling severe staph infections contracted from remote Gunu village on my first visit to teach women how to make spiralocks. 

Disappointment because Ive spent the last 12 years working so hard to create an ethical product. A product that I purposely always avoided getting mass produced in China. A product I wanted to use to raise up myself and those involved in its creation. A product that changes lives. A product that is made with love and good intent. 

Overwhelmed because trying to do what’s morally right in business in this modern world can be really hard, tiring, extremely expensive and sometimes not worth it when its a constant battle against those with little or no morals. Overwhelmed because its impossible to compete in price with China factory made rip-offs. 

It also makes me feel important. Strangely enough, I feel important enough to have my product that I invented including the name spiralock featured all over the world, being copied on platforms including etsy, aliexpress, temu and shein. My designs, my fabric and now even my photo used to sell 1000’s of a product I invented. I feel important that I started all this. 

Im also feeling grateful. Grateful of all that Spiralocks has brought me, taught me and provided for our beautiful 7 extended families in Gunu, Fiji. The adventures its brought my own family to Fiji. All the connections Ive made through spiralocks. The love and support we receive every day from all our loyal customers and all those ethical businesses who keep supporting small ethical products to keep us growing.

Im taking the positives from this and moving on to bring bigger and better things for spiralocks, the original for 2024.
