March 6th, 2021: CEO BrownGirl Mag, Trisha Sakhuja-Walia plus fashion icon Susan Langdon

On this episode, I sat down with one of Toronto’s greatest fashion mentors. Inspired by her mom, she learned how to sew at the young age of 5, and by the age of 9 was operating the sewing machine on her own and making her own garments that she wore to school. Needless to say, she would emerge as one of the top students in Ryerson’s Fashion Design program. Following university, she spent 7 years cutting her teeth in the industry, saving money to pay down student debt, and building her network to take the next step of starting her own line. While enjoying success running her own company, the recession in the early 90’s forced her to give up her dream and cause her to shift her focus to what ended up being her true calling. In 1994, she took the helm of the Toronto Fashion Incubator where she mentored many Canadian designers like Project Runway’s Sunny Fong, among many others. Today I’m sitting down with Susan Langdon, ED of Toronto's fashion incubator. In this episode we chat about overcoming intimidation in design school, Implementing new verticals to recession-proof your business and how consumer mindset will shift post-pandemic. Thank you all for tuning- before we jump into it I wanted to give you a quick heads up that this episode was recorded remotely via Zoom and the sound quality at times may be compromised. Bare with me as I learn how to navigate the art of remote podcasting.
