6 years in business
6 years in business means that we have pivoted many, many times in order to be here. I am not going to lie, there were days when I was ready to close our doors. Even this year, the idea of being a full-time mom and running MIGA seemed daunting and outright impossible to do. But here we are.
There have been many iterations of MIGA. First there was MIGA, which was custom-made to our volunteers and condition-specific. That was our first collection, inspired by burn survivors that we funded through our 2018 Kickstarter. Second, we had the collection where I worked closely with 5 women who all had very different diagnoses, from ulcerative colitis to acne inversa, to tell their stories through design and in the canvas bags that come with each suit. For this collection, we produced upwards of 800 units which were ready by the time we were in COVID. You can imagine how difficult it was as a small business to finally be in stock when the whole world was shut down with no vacation insight.
Last year, we did the ally collection, a push to create swimsuits that appealed to a greater audience as a way to continue to raise awareness about the disability community while combating ableism. If we weren’t so steadfast to our mission we would not be here.
What I have learned is that a good product will sell. A product has to appeal to the customer through the eye first, our bright neon pink Ally bikini top comes to mind. Then, everything else falls into place. One of our biggest pivots was when we realized our brand needed to target the mass market in order to fulfill our mission to combat ableism. I do not need to tell members of the disability community about the horrors of ableism, they know them too well. I need to engage with those that do not know how inaccessible our world is in order to fulfill our mission.
I never thought I would move away from a direct to consumer model to working with retailers like Target and Macy’s. I thought that in order to have a big impact I could do it all by myself and I was wrong. As a small business it is nearly impossible to get eye balls for a reasonable price, Google and Facebook are cost prohibitive, especially during the pandemic. So here we are working with two partners that we believe Can and will take our business to the next level. My therapist recently said that we are in expansion mode. And although I still cannot believe it, that is where we are today.

RECLAIMING LOST BITCOIN BY HIRING SPARTAN TECH GROUP RETRIEVAL FOR RECOVERY
I’m open to sharing my experience with Bitcoin investment and losing money to scammers. However, yes, it is possible to recover your stolen bitcoins. I never believed in Bitcoin recovery because I thought it was not possible. In August, I fell for a forex scam that promised overly high returns and lost close to 20,000,000 MXN. The scammers were incredibly convincing, using professional-looking websites and testimonials that made their offers seem legitimate. After I realized I had been scammed, I was devastated. I spent days researching ways to recover my funds, feeling increasingly hopeless. I looked into various recovery options, but most seemed dubious or too good to be true. I came across numerous horror stories of people who had lost money and were scammed again while trying to get their funds back. Then, during my search, I stumbled upon an article on Reddit discussing the possibility of recovering stolen cryptocurrency. It caught my attention, as I had almost given up hope. The article mentioned SPARTAN TECH GROUP RETRIEVAL and detailed how they had helped others in similar situations. Initially, I was skeptical, but I felt I had nothing to lose. After all, I had already lost a significant amount of money. I reached out to SPARTAN TECH GROUP RETRIEVAL with this Email: spartantechretrieval (@) g r o u p m a i l . c o m and the process started with a consultation. The representatives were professional and understanding, which helped ease my fears. They explained their methods for tracking and recovering stolen bitcoins, which involved tracing the transactions and working with law enforcement agencies. Despite my reservations, I decided to move forward with their services. To my greatest surprise, within a few weeks, they were able to recover all my stolen bitcoins from the scammers. It was an emotional rollercoaster, but finally receiving my funds back felt like a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I never thought I would see that money again, and it was a lesson learned the hard way. Now, I want to share my story to help others who might find themselves in a similar situation.

I want to share my experience about how I got My Wife Back. After three years of a broken marriage, My Wife left me with our two kids. We were constantly quarreling and struggling, which ultimately led to a serious breakup. My wife packed her things and moved away. Despite this, I was determined to reunite with her. But I was told by a reliable source, a very close co-worker, that Dr Kachi is a very dedicated, gifted and talented person, Then I met Dr. Kachi, a remarkable spell caster, who assured me that my wife would return within 24 hours after he prepared a love spell. I’m thrilled to say that Dr. Kachi kept his word! My Wife came back home, fell to her knees, and begged for my forgiveness. Today, our family is back together, and we are happy, healthy, and living together again. Dr. Kachi made my dreams come true by helping us reunite.
