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 I FOUND OUT MY WIFE WAS CHEATING THROUGH THE HELP OF 5ISPYHAK SERVICE
I was one of many men who never thought a day would come when my wife would cheat on me. I found out when my friend and I jokingly got a hacker called 5ISPYHAK to spy on our wives’ phones. There were no signs at all of her infidelity so I was 100% sure that I wouldn’t get anything suspicious in her phone. On the other hand, my friend had doubts based on his wife’s recent behaviour. We got a cyber company called 5ISPYHAK to do the job and they immediately sent us instructions which later gave us access to the women’s phones. The shock I felt when I checked her WhatsApp and messages is hard to describe. My wife is the sweetest and most caring woman on earth and there was no way I would ever imagine her hurting me in any way. But surprisingly, she had been sleeping with our son’s coach for what seemed like months. I ambushed her and her defence was that she got lonely because I no longer give her attention and affection but the truth is that I have been occupied with work since I am the breadwinner. I somehow understand her but at the same time I feel no emotion. I love my family and I don’t want us to go through the agony of divorce but i just have to for my own peace of mind. All thanks to 5ISPYHAK for their great and swift job well done. You can reach them through EMAIL. 5ISPYHAK437@GMAIL.COM

5ISPYHAK offers five star mobile phone monitoring and assets recovery solution. The new AI technology has been the latest trick used by many fake cryptocurrency investment theft. I fell for this deceit just last week when I got a phone call from someone who impersonated my close friend and introduced me to this investment project. He describes just exactly like her and how she’s been benefiting from the profits of the investment so I decided to invest not knowing I would get tricked. I almost lost about 858,000 USDT of my inheritance funds and money borrowed from different loan agents on this Chinese investment platform. After few days of losing this huge funds I did thorough search for help and I found 5ISPYHAK whom I reported my situation. I opened a case with this team and they assured me of a swift action immediately. To my surprise within few hours I reached out to them they were able to retrieve the first tranche of my stolen funds and the remaining subsequently. Their services were seamless and perfect without any hassle. I’m glad I got rescued and I’ll urge you to look this firm up for all asset recovery help.

I’m really delighted i eventually found a real & competent hacker i followed their Bogus recommendations. Never knew that my Husband had a son out of wedlock without informing me about it for almost 15 years of our marriage, until i noticed he picks strange calls on his Iphone and send some money to a strange woman. As much as it is inappropriate to spy on one’s spouse phone, it’s also necessary to be sure that your relationship is in perfect shape. All my gratitude goes to this Genius Hacker who got to hack his phone completely to the extent that i had a clone of his phone and could read all his whats-app & Facebook messages, call logs, text messages, and GPS to know where and what he is always up to. I’m really grateful for this great experience, It really helped me find out the truth about my marriage.
