"In celebration of Small Business Week in Rhode Island, Larson joined hosts Ashley Erling and Audrey McClelland to showcase her store that sells women-created clothing. She also runs a food blog, Overseasoned, where she highlights woman-owned businesses."

"Matriarch focuses on female creators and women-owned businesses while paying tribute to strong and remarkable women. Owner, Amy Larson, joins The Rhode Show to share all the details!"

"Meet Amy Larson, the founder + designer at Overseasoned -- who you might know for their merch + signature slogans like Smash the Garlic and the Patriarchy and I Scream For Reproductive Justice.

Our chat covers: how Amy combined her love of food + feminism to start the company; the importance of following your curiosity; how to know it's time to go from side-hustle to all-in; the value of showing up + embracing failure; how to hire support + delegate; The E-Myth Revisited; the process of opening a brick + mortar store; surrendering to the chaos of small business; and Radical Optimism."

"In this episode, Amy tells us how she transformed her love of food from a side hustle, to a full-time business venture. How vending at craft fairs expanded her audience and grew customer interest, and when she seized the moment to go all in with Overseasoned to build a sustainable and profitable feminist forward business."

"Newport is as much for art lovers as for thalassophiles: Newcomers like CUSP Gallery and the Matriarch store are keeping the community’s creative soul afloat..."

"I think all of these designs respond to a societal frustration in my customers and that's why they resonate so well. Like, the people who are loving the Hot Girls Eat Bread line are sick of diet culture and a male-dominated society telling women how they should look, dress, and eat. And then the Shuck the Patriarchy collection speaks to a special demographic of people (many of whom are in New England) who love oysters and hate the patriarchy. "

In her own words, Overseasoned is 'a culinary brand that celebrates women and food through storytelling, recipes, and a collection of bold goods that flavor the resistance movement.' Inspired by the likes of Priya Krishna (for her creative, cookable recipes) and the rage baking of Becca Rea- Holloway (AKA @thesweetfeminist on Instagram), Amy says the Overseasoned brand is a way of reclaiming the notion that women are 'too much.'”
