WonderWorkers 13: Lydia Bolton, Sustainable Fashion Designer and Founder - The Superpower of Consistent Hard Work

In this episode of WonderWorkers focused on fashion changemakers, I am with Lydia Bolton, a sustainability creator and slow fashion designer who boldly launched her eponymous brand back in 2019. Fueled by her passion for reducing waste, she utilises surplus materials, vintage finds, and discarded fabrics to craft cute women’s fashion and home goods that don’t cost the planet. In the past year, she has been empowering her community with hands-on upcycling workshops, offering invaluable skills to tackle the landfill crisis head-on. She’s a true advocate for the idea that with a dash of creativity and the right skills, we can transform each piece of clothing into a cherished wardrobe essential that stands the test of time. In 2022, she fronted a series of workshops for Nike’s flagship UK store, where she taught members how to turn defective stock into a unique item. Lydia’s journey is a testament to true grit and tenacity. Her creations are in such high demand that everyone wants a piece of her magic. It’s rare to see a business owner so deeply connected to their values. Lydia’s devotion to sustainability seems to run in her veins, likely a result of growing up in an eco-conscious household with an eco-warrior mom. Yet, it hasn’t been a smooth ride. She hustled with two jobs for years, toiling in a pub at night and taking on an unpaid internship by day, all in pursuit of building the experience needed to secure a paying job. And when she finally did, she had the courage to leave it behind and launch her own brand. Lydia’s story is a powerful reminder of how combining hard work with fearless determination can propel you closer to the person you aspire to be. If you’re a founder, entrepreneur, or business owner seeking motivation or struggling with fear and inertia, Lydia’s journey is a must-listen! In this episode, we talk about:👉 Her childhood growing up in an eco-conscious household👉 What it means to align your personal values with your brand…👉 ...And how you stick up to it!👉 Her experience of being a solo female entrepreneur in fashion and being both the creative and the business mind👉 The relentless pursuit and reality of getting a paid job in the fashion industry👉 How do you deal with building a strong value-led brand with slow growth while being a profitable business👉 How you can only grow if you get out of your comfort and do something that scares you👉 The superpower of hard-working To learn more about behind the scenes of the podcast:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/w%5Bearewonderworkers%5D(https://www.instagram.com/theculturecabinet/)" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/wearewonderworkers</a> To find out more about Lydia Bolton:https://www.instagram.com/lydiabolton_/https://www.lydiabolton.co.uk/ To follow my journey:<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurawarnod/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurawarnod/</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/laura_warnod/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/laura_warnod/</a> <hr> Hosted on Acast.
