How does reciprocity encourage individuals to balance their own self interest with the good of the community? Can shared social norms such as reciprocity, together with trust, enable those in a community to more easily communicate, cooperate to create stability and a thriving community? In this episode, Joanne and Sarah are in conversation with Mayra Orellana-Powell founder of Catracha Coffee.
Mayra describes her early experiences growing up in Honduras and how her grandmother’s lessons about economic choice and independence fueled her success as an entrepreneur in the billion-dollar coffee industry and inspired her to apply her talents for the benefit of her community and country. When Mayra left Alameda, California to return to her native Santa Elena, Honduras, she would have never imagined that someone would produce an award-winning documentary film about her and her work, and then seven years later that Forbes’ Magazine would name her as one of the 100 Most Powerful Women in Central America.
