What are you looking for?
To continuously make choices that meet our needs and taste and are sustainable can cost a lot of time. To make it easier, I'm looking for the 1000 best service providers, entrepreneurs and companies when it comes to combining business and sustainability.
I believe that it should be easy to make the best choices for us, our friends and families, animal welfare, employee well-being and our planet.
Welcome to this new shopping experience!
If you know a business that should be listed here, tell them about this. If you run a business that focuses on offering sustainable services or products and put the well-being of your employees first, then please apply below.
The directory is just the beginning. Trainings, workshops and talks by industry leaders will soon be added and offered to those who join the directory.
Put your money where your ❤️ is.
There is no other community-based directory like this out there.

Highlights
We’ve tested three sustainable dog food brands – this is what we found out!
ARTICLE
As I’m on my journey to reducing rubbish and living more consciously, dog food caught my attention as the big cans I was buying for the dogs constituted a big part of what I had to recycle.
Listening to Saving Us by Katharine Hayhoe, I became curious about the idea of feeding dogs food based on insects rather than meat and started to investigate and research a little.
The 5 Best Green Web Hosting Services
ARTICLE
Most of us have at least one website, for our sustainable businesses or the blog we write to help make this world a better place.
And while we try to take all measures to implement what matters most to us, technology often slips out of sight when it comes to sustainability. But to make it easy for you to switch to a green web hosting provider, I did a lot of research and checked them all out, when I still mainly worked as a web designer in 2021 and I’ve updated this research now, in February 2023.
ARCHETYPE POSTERS
Have you been looking for a fun and playful way to bring more clarity, joy and ease into your life? Archetypes are images we create in our unconscious. Many we know from story plots or films, like the hero, the villain, the princess and so on. But beyond the use in storytelling, archetypes have been used to get a better understanding of our unconscious ideas about certain aspects of our lives, which are otherwise difficult to reach. Learn more about the possibilities to work with archetypes for your personal development and get these beautiful archetype posters to decorate your home.
SCHEIBCHENS GARNTRÄUME
PAID ADVERTISEMENT
I offer sustainable and vegan knitting and crochet yarns and a few patterns as well. Being a passionate knitter myself, it occurred to me that there are not many hemp yarns available on the German market. So, I decided to found Scheibchens Garnträume to fill that void, but today you can also find other eco-friendly yarns in my shop.
SCHEIBE TRANSLATIONS
PAID ADVERTISEMENT
I offer translations from English and French into German, and proofreading. I specialize in computer hardware & software, electrical equipment & domestic appliances, measurement & control systems, and consumer electronics. I also like translating knitting and crochet patterns and anything related to environmental protection.

Get listed in the Sustainable Business Directory
Thank you for your interest in the Sustainable Business Directory. There is no equivalent community-based directory out there. You may apply below if you'd like to get a Free or Premium Listing here.
The directory is the starting point to create a network for women*, non-binary people and allies, who run successful businesses and create solutions for the problems we are currently facing, the Generous Life Movement. We're always better, together!

the idea
How can I combine theory with practice? The individual with the collective? Self-care with care for the community?
These questions are the foundation of my work as a coach because none of us exists in an empty space.
Whatever we do, we need each other.
The better we feel about ourselves, the more we can have a positive effect on those around us.
Equally, the better the people around us feel, the easier it is for ourselves to be at ease with them.
Everyone I know and work with wants to make the best choices, when it comes to how they live their lives, and that includes what and where they shop.
But often there’s simply not enough time to do the research at the moment in which we do need something.
To solve this problem, I’ve initiated the first Sustainable Business Directory for businesses and services run by women*, non-binary people and allies.
You want to buy something or are looking for a service, but don’t want to scroll through endless offers on Google, or other platforms, trying to find out who the people are you’d want to support most with your business?
From now on, you can come here.
I’m just starting to reach out and add the first businesses, so if you know of someone who should be listed here or would like to list your own business, reach out or apply above.
The content here will be highly selective and curated.
There are no formal requirements, but I have to trust the people listed here, that they are running their businesses to create excellent products and services and put a lot of love into what they do and that they are working to make our lives on this planet sustainable and joyful.
For me, this is my way of indulging in what I love: beautiful and sustainable products induced and created with love and care, and to share this passion with you.
I also see it as a chance to support people who are brave enough to step up for what they believe is right, and to meet them here.
I believe that we can achieve so much more and enjoy and discover so much more if we support each other.
The Sustainable Business Directory, together with a podcast to highlight some of the business owners presented here, is a beginning.
Once it's all set up and running, those involved will also be invited to trainings, workshops and talks with industry leaders, so that we can really make the most of the connections here.
Sign up for the free newsletter to be among the first to hear about that.
Let's grow, and play, and enjoy all the beauty in this world, together!
Why get a gold listing?
To be the Qui_ng (a mix of King & Queen) of your field.
So that people looking for what you have to offer see your product first.
Because you are really proud of what you have created and want to share it with the world by showing off the beauty you've created with a big picture!
And, if you need one more: Because you want to talk about what you do and why, and inspire even more people on the Podcast with me.
There's only 1 Gold Listing available per category, and only 50 altogether. The Gold Listing will go to the first of each category to apply and qualify.
Why get a premium listing?
For the same reasons that you would want to get a Gold Listing, but the Gold Listing for your category has already been taken. 🙂
Or because you can't afford a Gold Listing just yet.
If that's the case, I'm confident that if you keep doing what you're doing, you'll get there sooner than you think.
We're all on our own timeline, and your work is amazing. Go you! ❤️
There's only 6 Premium Listings available per category, and they will go to the first ones who apply and qualify as well.

OUR WORLD NEEDS CHANGE.
Our world needs you.
In your full power.
Start exploring new ways to be in this world.
Each of us gets to choose in every moment how their life is going to continue, but often we don't make the choices we want, but the ones we think are expected from us. And that leads to chaos, unhappiness and confusion because we're not aligned with our inner knowing.
Once we realize that we have the power to choose and change our circumstances, life enters into a more natural flow.
But to get there, we have some unlearning to do. We need to uncover the subconscious believes that keep us stuck, we need to leave our comfort zones and stretch ourselves, and we have to form new habits that serve us better. And that's what I'm here for, I will help you to become fiercely interdependent.
If you would like to work with me as a coach, I can guide you to find new options that are more aligned with your inner knowing, and to learn to trust your inner voice, to clear blockages that have been holding you back and to open up space for what really matters in your life.
On this journey you can find clarity, confidence, love, freedom, connection and so much more.
Ask yourself:
Am I ready to explore what else is possible for me? Am I curious to learn more about myself and my powers?

To start raising your consciousness, guided by me and together with other like-minded explorers.

Who you were always meant to be. And start living a generous, free and abundant and joyful life.
