Our Story

Hi, I’m Marisa, and Carry Courage began with a simple belief: that courage often grows in the quiet, everyday moments when we take small steps despite our fears. I wanted to make more than a bag. I wanted to create something that could travel with you through life’s challenges and joys, something that reminded you of your own strength.

Each bag starts with a vision in my studio. I cut, stitch, and shape every piece by hand, thinking about the hands that will carry it, the treasures it will hold, and the stories it will witness. Every detail is chosen with care because I believe a bag should be more than functional. It should be a companion, a little spark of confidence you carry into the world. When you hold a Carry Courage bag, you are holding a piece of that story, and I hope it inspires you to step forward boldly, even when life feels uncertain.
