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.

    How Do I Recover My Stolen Crypto Without Being Scammed During The Recovery Process Again. | Safe Guide And Recovery With 5ISPYHAK Wizard? Cryptocurrency Theft: What Victims Need to Know and How to Respond. Cryptocurrency theft is one of the most devastating experiences for holders, traders, and investors. Unlike traditional bank fraud, where transactions can sometimes be reversed, cryptocurrency transactions are irreversible by design. While this ensures privacy and security, it also leaves victims with limited recovery options once funds are stolen. In this environment, 5ISPYHAK Recovery (Blockchain Dev) focuses on educating victims and guiding them through practical steps toward potential recovery. Why Cryptocurrency Theft Happens. Understanding how theft occurs is the first step toward prevention and response. Common causes include: Phishing scams: Fake websites or messages trick users into revealing private keys; Malware and keyloggers: Software designed to steal login credentials; Exchange hacks: Third-party platform breaches; Money theft and fraudulent projects: Deceptive schemes that disappear with investor funds; Human error: Lost seed phrases or sending funds to incorrect addresses. Once funds leave your wallet, reversing the transaction is extremely difficult. However, informed action can still make a difference. The role of 5ISPYHAK recovery: This is not a “magic bullet,” but a structured system of education and support designed to empower victims. The goal is to replace panic with informed and strategic action. 1. Education on the Post-Theft Reality: Victims are guided to understand: How blockchain transactions work; Why transactions cannot simply be reversed; What “traceability” means in blockchain systems; The limitations of law enforcement in different jurisdictions; Common scam patterns to avoid. This helps prevent costly, panic-driven mistakes. 2. Step-by-Step Recovery Guide: While full recovery is not guaranteed, there are practical steps: Trace stolen funds; Identify exchange endpoints; Detect the use of mixers or tumblers; Trace wallet-to-wallet movement patterns. Victims learn how to gather and organize evidence into useful intelligence; Inform forensic teams; Submit detailed investigation reports; Provide transaction identifiers, wallet addresses, and screenshots; Escalate cases through the appropriate channels. Proper reporting increases the chances of coordinated intervention. 3. Access to Experts: Victims can connect with: Blockchain forensic analysts, Cybersecurity professionals, Legal experts in digital asset crimes. This reduces confusion and ensures structured support. 4. Emotional and Community Support: Losing cryptocurrency can be emotionally overwhelming. Support includes: Peer-to-peer discussion groups, Secure forums for sharing experiences, Stress management guidance. Clear thinking is critical during recovery efforts. 5. Prevention Through Education: A key focus is helping victims avoid future losses: Secure storage of seed phrases, Understanding hardware wallets, Setting up two-factor authentication, Recognizing social engineering tactics, Realistic Expectations. It’s important to be honest: Full recovery is rare, but not impossible; Stolen funds can sometimes be traced; Exchanges can freeze assets if alerted quickly; Coordinated investigations can improve outcomes. The focus remains on realistic, data-driven actions, not false promises. Key takeaways for victims: Act quickly, time is critical. Document everything (transactions, messages, addresses). Avoid panicked decisions. Use blockchain tracking tools. Seek legal and expert guidance. Conclusion: Recovering stolen cryptocurrency is challenging, but not hopeless. With the right combination of knowledge, forensic tools, expert support, and legal guidance, victims can take important steps toward recovery and better protect themselves in the future.
