Show Notes

Unless you have a career in fashion, we solely participate in fashion as consumers. Clothes and accessories are things that we buy. And that’s it. 

In this episode, I sit down with Jesse Boga, a journalism-trainer writer who has extensive work in news and lifestyle media, PR, and science communication. 

We talked about…

I really enjoyed this conversation because it tackled fashion in a different light. 

As entrepreneurs who dabble in fashion merely as consumers, we were able to discuss angles that would never come  up in our day-to-day lives. 

After this episode, I mindfully donated a few of my clothes and chose to be more intentional with the things I buy. :) [Don’t worry! This is not a podcast about minimalism! Haha!]
