Giving Leather a New Meaning and Purpose: Emily Brown's Journey


Listen Later

In this episode of The Slice, I sit down with Emily Brown, founder of EE Brown Leatherworks, to talk about her incredible journey from side hustle to full-time entrepreneur. Emily shares how a creative spark (and a game-changing call from Birkenstock) launched her leather artistry into a legit business.

We dive into everything—from educating a market that didn’t even know leather art was a thing, to how 3D printing unlocked a new level of creativity in her process. Emily opens up about the tough stuff too: imposter syndrome, business mistakes, redefining success, and learning to believe in yourself even when no one else does.

Whether you're a creator, an aspiring entrepreneur, or someone who just appreciates a good story—you’re going to love this one.
