For a long time, I held limiting beliefs about fashion.
I used to think spending money on clothes was frivolous, that it wasn’t a “smart” investment compared to other things. But as I broke through these limiting beliefs, I realized that fashion wasn’t just about pretty clothes, it’s about self-expression and confidence.
It’s a lesson that my guest today, Maggie Adhami Boynton, embodies perfectly.
Maggie is the co-founder and CEO of ShopThing, a live shopping platform that merges fashion with cutting-edge technology. Her journey from the corporate tech world to running her own business is proof of the power of following your passion, even in the face of a male-dominated industry.
In today’s episode, Maggie shares how she combined her love for fashion with her expertise in tech to raise $10 million in funding to build something truly groundbreaking for women who love fashion too.
In our conversation, we chat about:
- How Maggie overcame the challenges of being a female leader in a male-dominated industry
- How her love for fashion led to founding ShopThing
- Navigating the highs and lows of being a CEO
- Empowering women through the gig economy
- And so much more.
Please join us for a conversation that will encourage you to rethink limiting beliefs, and embrace your passions. Tune in.
