A lifestyle change prompted title attorney and Baton Rouge resident Caroline Borck to start a part-time business. Now, working in the kitchen of the house her husband built on Spain Street, Borck spends the better part of her afternoon making soap and candles from scratch. She operates her company, Sea+Sparrow, out of the house in Beauregard Town, selling her homegrown creations. And, she says, her business has seen great local response thus far.
It all began when Borck and her husband, Nathan, decided to try for a child. Ridding her home of everyday toxins would create a better environment for all three of them, Borck says. She found that making homemade, organic deodorant, laundry detergent and sunscreen was something she enjoyed. “I really wanted to become more health-conscious and earth-friendly,” Borck says. “So I asked myself, ‘What else can I make?’ ” Find out how Borck made this paradigm shift in her career by reading the whole story from 225 here.
