Ignite Series 002: Nnenna Stella

The Ignite Series is a monthly interview of an artist, creator, or community organizer whose passion has inspired us.

 

Nnenna Stella is the founder and chief executive of The Wrap Life, a Brooklyn-based brand offering richly patterned head-wraps with styles influenced by West African culture.

Here she sits down with our founder Harry to share her life story; from waiting tables to building a thriving brand, discovering how impactful the act of representation can be for women of color, and learning how to adapt to the demands of running a business.

If you enjoyed this article, you might enjoy our not-quite-weekly free newsletter where we share our lessons on our journey toward our regenerative vision, product launches, and behind-the-scenes happenings.

We left social media in 2021 because we found its current mechanics didn’t align with our purpose to facilitate connection to the natural world, our loved ones, and our own spirits. Since then, our newsletter has become a vibrant place for healthy conversation around topics ranging from alternative business ownership models to happy hour cocktail recipes.

Join our free newsletter to be the first to hear about newly available scented candles, special events, and more.

What our readers say about it

“It’s very thoughtful and not sales-y like all other marketing newsletters.”

“I like reading how a business is trying to be as progressive as possible in a capitalist system.”

“I normally delete emails from businesses but with the Keap newsletter I was actually interested in reading through! Made me feel that you guys really care about us and the work you do."
