SFD050: Special 50th Episode, Heidi Gets Interviewed

Successful Fashion Designer podcast celebrates ONE YEAR 🎉🎉🎉! It seems like just yesterday that having a podcast was something we just "talked" about...but here we are, 49 episodes and a year later, and we have a podcast. The feedback has been through the roof, and starting this show has been one of the best things I've ever done. Not only do I get to meet and chat with amazing industry experts, I get to share all of these conversations, insights and gold nuggets of advice with YOU. Thank you for listening each week. Thank you for the continued support and feedback. Thank you for being here to support me on this journey. Without each and every one of you, none of this would happen. To thank you personally, and to give you a more personal glimpse into *my* journey as a designer, for episode 50 we decided to turn the tables. In this episode, Marc (my husband) will interview me. Hear more about my (shoddy) beginnings as a designer, my best advice for starting your brand (even if you don't have funding like me), the surprising industry lessons I've learned from a year of interviews, and a handful of funny, embarrassing and downright bizarre stories about the last 15 years of my life working in fashion. We had a great time recording this episode, and I know you'll enjoy listening.

Om Podcasten

This is a show for burnt-out fashion designers (and TDs, PDs, patternmakers and beyond) who want more flexibility while still doing work they love. As a freelance fashion designer, you can build your fashion career on your own terms. Freelancing in fashion is the only way to get freedom in your day (instead of being tied to a desk). Whether you want to earn extra money on the side, fund your fashion brand, or replace your salary, the FDGP podcast will help you get there. Listen in for actionable tips and strategies to kickstart or grow your career as a freelance fashion designer, build your confidence, and create the life you want. Hosted by $100k+ fashion freelancer Sew Heidi, the show features interviews and strategy sessions with successful freelance fashion designers from around the world who've ditched toxic fashion jobs and taken control of their own destinies. This is the only place to get REAL insights from REAL freelancers who have built REAL careers on their own terms. (Formerly the Successful Fashion Freelancer podcast.)
