Mary Young, a trailblazer in the fashion industry and an advocate for ethical and sustainable business practices is my special guest today on the Bombshell Business Podcast. Join us as we explore Mary’s entrepreneurial journey while discussing the resiliency she developed, the values she upholds, and the wisdom she shares with fellow Bombshells.

Key Takeaways

Starting Young, Striving Strong: Mary started her business at just 23, facing initial skepticism due to her age and gender; however, she used this as fuel to succeed and connect deeply with her customer base.
Ethical and Sustainable: Mary Young Lingerie stands out for its commitment to ethical and sustainable practices. From empowering garment workers with living wages to promoting mindful consumption, Mary’s brand ethos reflects her values.
Defining Success on Your Terms: Success isn’t just about financial gains but about making a positive impact while staying true to your values. Mary encourages fellow entrepreneurs to define success on their terms and not be swayed by external pressures.
Embracing Failure as Fuel: Mary’s journey teaches us the power of resilience. She emphasizes that failures are inevitable but serve as stepping stones to growth. Embracing failure and learning from it is key to moving forward.

Remember, success is not just about climbing the ladder but creating a life and business that aligns with your values and fulfills you. Want to hear more of Young Mary’s wisdom? (You see what I did there 😉) Tune in on your favorite listening app, on the website, or watch it on YouTube!
