Clare Waight Keller: Fashion Pivots, Trusting Your Creativity and Making Time Count
What does it take to lead luxury fashion for two decades—then make an unexpected pivot? My guest this week, celebrated fashion designer Clare Waight Keller, knows first hand. After shaping the vision at Chloé and Givenchy—where she famously created the Duchess of Sussex’s wedding dress—Clare stepped away from the Paris catwalk to become Uniqlo’s Global Creative Director.
In this episode, Clare reveals why this was more than a career shift —it was a statement of intent. With luxury fashion prices soaring 52% since 2020, Clare’s new mission is to show that great everyday design can be accessible to everyone, and that in the right hands “fast fashion” can be reimagined as slow fashion.
Clare also takes us under the hood of her creative and decision making process—sharing why trusting her instincts is her superpower, why discomfort fuels her best work, and how seeing time as her most precious resource has shaped every decision she’s made. We get to the truth behind why there are so few female fashion directors, what it was like to work with the Duchess of Sussex, and why Uniqlo’s home-base of Tokyo is her favourite fashion capital yet.
Clare Waight Keller is a revered force in fashion, and her journey—rooted in instinct, embracing change and long-term strategic thinking—offers inspiration to anyone forging their own path to just right.
If you’ve ever wanted a peek behind the curtain of design creativity, are curious about how fashion is changing, or to hear from a woman at the top of her game in an industry dominated by men, this one’s for you.

Stacey Duguid: Divorce, Toyboys & the Contentment vs. Happiness Debate
Have you ever wanted to throw your whole life up in the air—just to see where it lands? Journalist and author of In Pursuit of Happiness Stacey Duguid did exactly that four years ago, and if her life since then was a Netflix series, you’d binge it in one sitting—hiding behind your hands one minute and cheering her on the next.
In this episode, she joins me to unpack it all: love, divorce, reinvention, toyboys, and the hard lessons she’s learned while searching for—and not quite finding (yet!)—the fabled greener grass on the other side.
We dive into divorce taboos, dating disasters (one word: strangler), the surprising joy of ToyboyWarehouse.com, and why her boob job was the best money she’s ever spent. Stacey also shares her biggest never again moments, what she wishes she had done instead, and her essential advice for anyone contemplating divorce.
This episode is packed with deep—and often hilarious—life lessons: we get real about burnout, ADHD and the big one: if you know your enough, are you happy, or content? And which is better?

Erica Sosna: Own Your Career, Love Your Work, Find Your Zone of Genius
What does career success mean to you? Not the glossy, societal version—but one that lights up your zone of genius and provides the income you need to thrive. With 85,000 hours of your life spent at work, how do you make them really count? Erica Sosna, career coach and founder of The Career Equation, has the answers.
In this episode, Erica shares the four key questions that unlock a career equation, how to figure out where you’re at now, and strategies for crafting a mission statement that aligns work with skills, earning potential, and personal goals. At the heart of it all is the big question: what does “enough” look like, and what strategies lead to achieving it in your career?
Erica’s story is nothing short of incredible. Two years ago, she faced a life-changing accident that left her paralyzed from the waist down. She tells Melanie how her Career Equation mission statement became her North Star for staying focused on recovery, helping her rebuild her life, career, and income from the ground up. Truly inspiring.
Whether you’re making a career comeback, tweaking your current job, or dreaming up a whole new direction, this episode is packed with practical advice and fresh ideas to help you shape a career—squiggly or linear—that truly works for you.
