Ep 17: She Turned “Too Old” Into a Business


Listen Later

In this episode of Stretton Unfiltered, Annah sits down with New Zealand Silver Fox Modelling Agency owner Rebecca Swaney for a conversation that goes far beyond modelling.

From buying a business on instinct to building a nationally recognised agency representing women 30+ and beyond, Rebecca shares the reality of backing yourself, learning on the fly, and creating space in an industry that historically overlooked mature women.

This is a story about:

  • Starting with just 11 models and building something meaningful
  • The shift towards diversity and representation in fashion
  • The emotional reality behind running a solo business
  • Why women don’t “age out” anymore
  • And what it really looks like to close a business with grace

It’s honest, reflective, and quietly powerful.Because this isn’t just about modelling. It’s about visibility, identity, and the courage to evolve.
