S4 Ep 6: From Textile Marketing to Sew Different: Laura Casey
Laura Casey was enjoying a successful life in textile marketing, but she always felt she wanted more control over her career. After she had her two daughters, she decided to become a freelancer. She also started to design her own sewing patterns and began a blog, sharing her designs for free. Laura had no idea she was also beginning her own business but when she had 40,000 followers she realised she had to do something. Laura now not only creates her own patterns, she runs sewing retreats and she has even designed her own fabric. Best of all, Laura wakes up in the morning and can decide what work she wants to do that day. Laura believes we don’t have to wait for perfection, we just have to start and improve from there. Laura is supportive, encouraging and hardworking.
