The Founder's Edit
Welcome to The Founder’s Edit — where I share the real stories, hard-won lessons, and strategic insights from my journey across fashion, retail, and building brands from the ground up. Along the way, I’ve had the chance to learn from some of the most successful CEOs and founders in the world — and those conversations continue to shape how I think, advise, and lead.
Here you’ll find a mix of personal reflections, insights from my Forbes column, and ideas I share every day with early-stage founders and scaling teams.
If you're building, leading, or just staying curious — subscribe below and get the latest straight from me.
