Jan 21, 201900:51:13Tap to summarizeGarik is the founder of Eco-Stylist, a stylishly curated collection of eco-conscious menswear. 3 years ago he quit his corporate job to start chasing his fears, with his long-term dream of starting a social venture. Fear chasing lead him to the University of Iowa where he pursued an MBA and got the chance to push against many fears, including practicing public speaking, taking an acting class, and rock climbing. This May he completed the MBA, but instead of pursuing full-time work, he took the leap and led Eco-Stylist through the startup accelerator at the University of Iowa, and is now bootstrapping the company fulltime from Iowa City, IA. He helps men find clothes that look good and make a positive impact, while also sharing knowledge about sustainable buying habits, recycling your clothes, and much more.

He build his own tiny house on wheel in 2012, and has been passionately helping future tiny house dwellers on their journey ever since. Ethan's guide, Tiny House Decisions, has helped thousands of readers answer the big questions about tiny houses and plan each system in their future home. He's also the creator and host of Tiny House Lifestyle Podcast, a show that brings you conversations with tiny house luminaries, builders, and DIYers. Ethan and his wife Ann live in their tiny house part-time in Northern Vermont. In our discussion we go over all the amazing aspects of Ethan's book, podcast and how he enjoys tiny house dwelling. We go over the important role research is in designing and planning your tiny house, which is why he wrote Tiny House Decisions. When he was looking for information during his build, he couldn't find much of anything, so his book was born. I am excited to say his new book on tiny house parking is coming out so definitely check his website for updates. Ethan has truly enjoyed living in a tiny house and thankful for the sustainability it offers, the financial freedom and community of people it brings. His words of wisdom is to surround yourself with those who have been on this journey to help you on your tiny house journey.
